STUDEBAKER IS
new HOLDER OF
COAST RECORD


According to an announcement jus;
received by Reay and Johnson, ioca;
Studebaker dealers, a new record OF
81 hours and minutes for the 147J
mile round trip between San Fran
cisco, Calf, and Portland, ore, was
established on October by r. 4.
Conyes, a Berkeley business man, anc
w. A. Shipe. The car driven was d
Big Six sport roadster, Conyes' per-
sonal car. The best previous time
made for the round trip was 40 hours
and 5S minutes. The new record low
cred the former mark by hours and
81 minutes.
While they were making the new
round trip record Conyes and his
companion also but more than two
hours from the San Francisco to
Portland driving time by covering the
735 miles between the two cities In
16 hours and 33 minutes. The best
time that had been made prior to
Conyes' trip was 10 hours and 8
minutes.
The new record is but one of many
of the Studebaker Big Six. PerhapS
the most outstanding record ever
made by this car was the dash of
the Studebaker Sheriff" from New
York to San Francisco IN So hours
and 20 minutes by Alb Jenkins ano
Ray Peck Oil June II. This broke
all previous records by 16 hours and
25 minutes and-for the first time
beat the fastest trains
Conyes' trip was timed by the
Western Union Telegraph company.
He checked out of that company's
office at 722 Market street, San Fran
cisco, at 1858 p. m, October 4. On
the following afternoon, at 1925 p.
m, the Big Six arrived IN front of
the main office of the Western Union
in Portland. Conyes had made the
trip through the night in 16 hours
and 33 minutes, shattering the one
way record between the two cities
more than two hours.
After a rest of 1 hour and 13 MIN
utes the return trip to San Fran
cisco was begun. The Western Union
checked the departure at 2:S9 p. m.
At 9:55 o'clock the following morning
October 6, Conyes Studebaker rolled
to stop in front of the San Fran-
cisco Western Union office and the
circuit between the two cities was
completed in exactly 81 hours and :
minutes. Most of the driving was
done at night. Several detours and a
heavy rain added several minutes to
the driving time.
eve broke the record by more than
three hours" SAID Conyes at the com,
pletion of the trip. It want to say
that the Studebaker is some automo.
bile. That car took a lot of pun
ishment on this trip and the per.
tormance was perfect"
The entire run to Portland and re-
turn, with a few exceptions on one
4-mile detour, was made in high
gear. All grades and mountains were
pulled in high. And there was plenty
of reserve power at all stages of the
trip" Conyes added

All the lakes in the Playground
of a Nation" attracted hundreds of
fishermen last Sunday who We're
after their limit of wall-eyed pike.
Editor Burgess of the Tower News
in commenting on the influx of fish
ermen said something worth remem-
bering in the following: "It should
be remembered that Minnesota is
the state where the wall-eyed pike
is making its last stand. This
choice fish is rapidly disappearing
and Minnesotans should do all in
their power to encourage and assist
the work of protection and propaga-
ton. Not only should all sports
men observe the law governing the
limit of fish that may be caught or
had in possession, but all forms of
illegal fishing and all questionable
practices should be discouraged"

Paving half the road at time is
being tried on two Minnesota trunk
highways this season, in order to
save motorists different detours.
This plan is in use on one stretch on
No. l near Hinkley and on another
stretch on No. 8 below Winona. In
both cases closing the road would
have necessitated long detours, and
putting the detours in shape would
have been expensive. By paving
only half the road at a time, the
road is open to one-way traffic at all
times.
