scheduled in the newly organized
Stearns County American Legion
Juvenile league, Sank Centre lost
at Albany Sunday % to 8, while
Melrose defeated Cold Springs 8
to 2.
At Melrose the two teams played
a nearly errorless game and the

scoring the run that broke the tie
and won the game,
At Albany the local Juniors had
the game under wraps in the
eighth inning, leading 8 to 5 with

change of hurlers in the ninth
gave the Albany. lads their chance,
walks and hits combined account
ing for enough runs to win. Art

In all my experience I've never yet

though I'm lettin' him take the car

trouble became more pronounced
Then he made the trouble still more
pronounced by adjusting for a still
richer mixture. This proved beyond
any doubt that the trouble was due
to inability TO obtain a lean enough
mixture He took the car to carbu-
rotor expert and had the necessary
changes made in the carburetor.
One of the best ways to find
squeak is to exaggerate the conditions
which are likely to cause 1t. IL the
springs are suspected the thing TO do
Is to run for a short stretch with the
tires underinflated. This will make
the car bound more and bring the
springs into greater action. If the
noise is much more pronounced Ii is
apparent that the springs are to
blame, for with the low-pressure tires
there would be tendency to cushion
the car and stop squeaks which might
come from parts that were baing
Jared.
Squeaking Made Conspicuous.
On the other hand, IL the squeaking
might be in some other part of the
chassis or body, the thing to do is to
drive over a rough road with too much
air in the tires. This jars the car TO
such an extent that anything loose
or too tight will be made to squeak
all the more. BY accentuating the
trouble 1t. Is made so conspicuous one
can very easily locate 1t.
The new method of diagnosing trou-
BILE quickly does away with the annoy.
ance and delay of casting about for
solutions. Trial and error is greatly
minimized. This is well illustrated in
the plan used by one owner in locat-
ing brake trouble.
The brakes had not been up to their
usual efficiency. yet the customary
tests showed that the brake-band
clearances were correct. Rather than
waste any more time in experiment..
ing for remedies he decided 10 set out
deliberately to make the brakes act
at their worst. What he did was to
siam them on, make the wheels slide
and then compare the tire marks. He
found that one wheel did not lock at
all. 1t was only a short step from
this point to inspection of the brake
lining and discovery that it was
glazed with grease.
Car owners who have learned that
being too free with the monkey
wrench carries its penalty will doubt
less find the new method of locating
trouble highly satisfactory. Many
owners have frightened up nuts around
the steering gear only to crack a
housing or do some equally serious
harm, but now they can proceed with
out risk of expense just by first loosen
ing things.
Diagnosing has now become re-
versing. The trouble is located by
trying TO make 1t worse. It's new
idea to the motorist, but simply a
variation of the old truism that there
is always another way OF skinning a
cat.

the conference. representing the Dis.
trict of Columbia, most Of the North
eastern seaboard States, and two of
the Canadian provinces. should use its
influence to urge makers and dealers
to cease stressing the ability of their
cars'to do so. 20 and 80 miles an hour.
When a motorist reads that his
car will make so miles an hour, the
tendency, in many instances. Is al
most irresistible to take 1t out on the
road and see IL it win really go that
fast" says Mr.. Baughman.
More and more, during recent
months. the automobile manufacturers
and dealers of the country have been
talking of the tremendous speed of
their products. and their quick &C.
celeration and high power. / am con-
WINGED that this emphasis placei Cn
speed, reacting psychologically on the
automobile drivers. is a contributing
factor in the mounting list of traffic
casualties throughout the country.
1T is true that drivers do not have
to use all the high speed advertised.
hut when an automobile driver is told
his car will travel 80 miles an hour.
his natural impulse is to open wide the
throttle at the first opportunity and
discover for himself whether per-
formance equals promise. When he
is told that he can pass anything on
the road he is not likely to fail to
test this promise too.
THE thought is to have the Eastern
conference suggest to the manufac-
turers that they emphasize power and
safety in their national advertising.
instead of speed. / feel that a united
and general policy would make for
greater safety and eventually work
to the advantage Of the automobile
industry as whole"
