The crew working on the north

The most of the north south high
way is now in good condition, and
with the summer, rains, which will
pack the earth firmly, the graders

BASEBALL TAG
DAY GETS OFF
TO FINE START

Tag day, for the benefit of the
Douglas ball club, in the Copper
league, got away to flying start
this morning when Doe" Snyder, of
the James A. Dick Grocery company
of El Paso, bought the first tag for
$500.
Francis Ames, proprietor of the
smokehouse, bought the second ticket
for the same amount
While the directors OF the Douglas
ball club hardly hope to see all of the
1000 tags sell at the above quoted
prices, they do hope to see the Doug
las fans falls in and lend the support
that will be necessary if the club is
to finish the second half of the season
with the present lineup.
Showing that they are true follow
ers of the sport, SO women of Douglas
have signified their willingness to lay
aside their personal interests for a
day and have volunteered to dis
tribute the tags. Under the leader
ship of Mrs. Lynn Palmer, they will,
in three shifts of 12 each, cover the
town, and they have all confidently
declared that they are going to bring
home the bacon"
According to the present outlook, the
Blues face deficit, and unless this
deficit is made up in the near future,
it will be impossible to finish the sea-
son with the present aggregation of
high class ball talent.
The fans all want the Blues to fin
ish the season, particularly in view of
the fact that the team stands good
show to cop the second half pennant,
and so it is hoped that the subscrip-
tions today will be, to quote the club
directors, plenty and generous"

OVERLAND'S new
WHIPPET NOW ON
DISPLAY HERE

1t hasi been anticipated for some
months that a large American builder
of motor cars would soon be on the
market with a European type, low,
light car The initial production of
what may be the forerunner of com
,plete, change in our great mass pro-
duction of light automobiles made it's
appearance in this city this week. IT
is the overland whippet, on which the
engineers of Willys-Overland, Inc,
have been working, both here and In
Europe for the past two years.
This, new car is totally different
from anything we have ever seen be-
fore in this country. 1t looks differ
ent, it acts different and it serves a
different but constantly increasing
demand. Mechanically, it is an adap-
tation of the best that Europe has to
offer in the way of powerful, economl-
cal engines, with a wide speed range,
more power for climbing than has
characterized even the best of the Eu-
ropean productions, and with a fleXi-
bility, silence and smoothness of rum
ming which is new to our light car
production.
1t is q quality product in every de-
tail from the trim, smart, extremely
Tow hung body with it's brilliant fin
ish and superb upholstery to the last
detail of it's mechanical construction.
The sedan will travel SO miles an
hour as easily and comfortably as the
great majority of our present day
skies and yet it is equipped with
fouF-cylinder motor.
tt will accelerate from 5 to 25 miles
an hour in 10 seconds. 1t travels from
2S to 80 miles on a gallon of gas.
It. will stop in a little over twice it's
own length from an average driving
speed, for it is equipped with four
wheel brakes, having a drum diameter
of ii inches which is larged than those
on many large cars.
The motor develops % per cent
more power per cubic inch of piston
displacement than any other light
four cylinder motor built In America;
this. is one of the results of utilizing
the European type of high speed mo-
tor design 1t develops greater brake
HORSEPOWER than any other light four
cylinder car in this country and yet
it weighs just a little over 1000
pounds, ready for the road. The
power plant turns over $500 reVolu-
tions minute and gives developed
power of 3O.5 h. p. from an S. A. e.
rating of 1876 h. p The total piston
displacement is 1S4.2 cubic inches,
somewhat larger than that of the av-
erage European light car, but less
than any other American built four
! cylinder car.
The roof of this new type car is
only 5 feet inches from the ground
yet the room inside the body Is
! greater than in any other light car
now on the market. It's first appear
ance is striking inN the extreme. A
man of average height can stand
alongside it at the curb and rest his
farms on the top and look over It.
But six-footer can sit in it with all
the room he wants.
