They demand an OIL that
forms no hard carbon

Harmful in any motor, gritty, coke-se carbon from
burned oil is even more serious in motors Of the
high-co1npression type
So, like other motorists, you have probably come
face to face with the carbon problem.
Many otherwise good lubricants form layers Of
hard, f1ty carbon within your motor. Abrasive bits
grind through bearings; ;arger flakes hold valves pen
red-hot ''nibs'' cause knocking.
Imperial Valley press., 1928-10-22

1t is in both the amount Of carbon and the kind
that you may judge a motor oil. Let give you the
striking facts about one oil.
Less carbon-sof carbon
Shell Motor Oil actually forms only rs to is as
much carbon as even tho highest priced oils;
And the little it forms is only soft soot that blows
easily away
None of the sturdy body Of this new lubricant is
lost in refining. It comes to you with hcatrcssting
qualities with lubricant value, far il ezccso Of the
good oils of the past
Refill with Shell Motor OIL Get its finer lubrica~
ton, its freedom from destructive carbon. Let it
"add thousands Of miles to the life Of your car"
Imperial Valley press., 1928-10-22

Today's high compress
ion motors have as little
as one thirty-second of
an inch clearance. be-
tween cylinder head and
pistons-too little space
to allow even a thin layer
of hard carbon without
causing trouble. Shell
Motor Oil, forming less
carbon, soft carbon, is
almost an essential to
proper performance Of

ENGLAND WILL SEND
TENNIS TEAM TO u. S.
Ry the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August Seeking
to regain the prestige she enjoyed too
decades or more ago. England will send
tennis team OF four to the United
States this month to compete in team
matches against America and in the
American national championships, the
United States Lawn Tennis Assocla-
tfon announced today.
THE British team, which is to sail for
America on August IL, will consist of
Edward Higgs. ranking No. player; j.
Colin Gregory, ranking No. 4; H. W.
Austin, the young Cambridge star. and
I. G.. Vollins, holder of the Scottish
singles championship In 1925 and 1927
The invaders first competition after
they arrive In America as now plan
ned will be I'm a two-day series OF
team matches against the United States
at Forest Hills, September and g.
There is a chance that the British may
decide to enter the national doubles
championships at Boston. August n
although this has not yet been definitely
determined.
They Will play In the national singles
titular events at Forest Hills September
10. and then will leave for a series oi
matches In Canada. The next stop
will be at Los Angeles for team matches
on September % and 90, and then al
San Francisco on October / and 2
They will sail from San Francisco Oc-
tober 8 for a tour Of Australia and
New Zealand.
Entry or the Britishers into the cham
pionships at Forest Hills gave more oi
an international tinge TO that contro-
versy than 1T ever has had before. A
French team headed by Henri Cochet
and including Jean Borotra, Jacques
Brugnon, Pierre Landrey, Christian
Boussis and Rene de Buzelet also will
be entered. as will the Australian quar-
fet of Gerald Patterson, John B. Hawkes.
Jack Crawford and H. o. Hopman.
There Is still a possibility that the
French threat" will be increased by
the entry of Rene La Coste. who wor
the American national singles crown
in 1926 and again last year. Lacoste
announced he could not make the TRIP
come time ago. but after his defeat In
the Davis Cup finals at Paris by Big
Bill Tilden, the French ace intimated
that he might change his mind.
