Whippet Knocks 81
Minutes OFF Record
Over Mountain Road

Cracking 81 minutes off the form
er record held by $3,0Oo.isix cylinder
car, a Whippet stock car this week
speeded its way to notable achieve
ment mark when it travelled 1876 miles
in 1853 minutes under official obsorva-
ton Of newspapermen and city cf-
ficials. This test was staged up the
famous Nantahala gorge from Ash
eville to Murphy, North Carolina.
TINS route consists chiefly of steep
mountains and dangerously. sharp
curves with very few stretches vi
straight or level country. 3s 4
Not only did the Whippet set a
new tim. record for the trip but il
maintained an average speed o!
47.75 miles an hour and averaged
33 l-3 miles to the gallon of xaso-
line with an almost negligible con-
sumption of oil.
The Whippet record was offer tally
recorded in every detail,-time. speed,
gas and oil consumption--and sets i
high mark for all light four-cylinder
cars.
The Whippet was officially check
ed out of Asheville at the start of
the test by Postal Telegraph Of
ficials and checked>ip at Murphy
at the end Of the journey $50 minu-
tes later by Western Union Of
ficials.
Although the route was over the
mountainous roads, the Whippet
made the entire journey in high gear,
at times reaching a maximum speed
in excess Of 60 miles an hour. This
fact is attested to by observers who
acc ompanied the driver.
At the conclusion of the run the
driver of the Whippet said that the
efficiency Of the Whippet four-wheel
brake equipment enabled them ia
make the perilous mountain curves
at high rate of speed, the brakes
instantly responding when called into
action.

and observers who took part in the
record run we're: c. H. Bartlett

the entire range of speed. u
The new power plant is fitted with
a standard shift transmission which

New York, May 14.-1P)-The idea

notion just now as premature, but it
is no secret that many of them re-
gard the possibility favorably and
hope in time TO knit together group

Football men unquestionably would
regard the centraliZing of authority
in choosing officials for the big
game as step toward a conference.

position with the New Orleans Peli-
cans of the Southern Association
and, according to Clark Shaughnessy.
former Tulane football coach, is
tearing the cover off the ball.
Morgan, who is an inch over. six
feet and weighs 1856 pounds, was a
football, basketball and baseball
star at Tulane. He would have been
track star, too, if he had had
time, his old coach says.
He was unanimous choice for all

a clever half back on the football
team. In baseball he caught, played

If he is to measure up to the ever

Sales company.
"Better cars and more cars mean
better dealers. The essentials of
good day-by-day performance of any
motor car must be provided by
strictly local factors.
