The Ford Plant

Bruce Strowd took w. S. Ber-
nard and me to the Ford plant
in Charlotte the other day. With
admiring eyes | beheld the as
sembling process of which | had
read and heard so much; the
putting together, piece by piece,
of a Ford car. 1t struck me as
quite as wonderful as it had ever
been pictured by the most pane
gryical writer's.
Most of the visitors on this
day were dealers, with a few
outsiders like Mr.. Bernard and
myself mixed in. They were
taken through the place in
groups.
A vast building of concrete
and steel, with skylights in the
roof. A railroad track down one
side, fwithin the structure, with
freight cars moving back and
forth. Endless piles of parts {:
axles, bars and rods for the
underframe, wheels, tires, metal
plates for the body frame and
the hood covering, cloth and
stuffing for the seats-and all
the rest of the ingredients. Men
everywhere, fitting pieces to-
gether, riveting, driving in bolts
and screws, Tightening nuts,
oiling, sewing cushions, polish
ing and painting, and doing a
thousand other things.
On one steadily moving con-
veyor was placed the under
frame. AS it proceeded it took
on wheels, engine, hood, the
transmission mechanism. On
another cnnYeyor the body was
put together. At a certain point
the second conveyor approached
the first, and the body was lift
ed by a crane and let down upon
the base. The men did their va
rious tasks as the car moved on,
swarming about it like lot of
ants attacking a wounded cater
pillar. At last a man took his
place at the steering wheel and
drove down a gentle incline into
a walled enclosure, of about the
size of the ordinary residence
garage, for the final step in the
manufacturing process: the
testing of the lights. They told
me that, after this, every car
was taken out upon the highway

LEADERS HAVE
GOOD INFIELD
COMBINATIONS
Giants Youngest With
Least Experie c E;
Yankees Have Best
Hitting Average
By ALLAN y. u


tAMM~@A4A14 AAEME GMWANM EWANWAmN
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-tP1-The
infield strength or weakness or the
four clubs still in the thick cf the
major league pennant battles offers
q wide range for contrast in figuring
the worlds series dope.
The Yankees have the heaviest hit
ting array OF the lot and the most ex-
perlenced. The Giants have the fast
est and youngest set Of liner work
ers, q brilliant quartet that averages
only rs and hits for sos. The Ath-
letics r another seasoned group,
with a young firebrand in Jimmy
Foxx. The Cardinals rely chiefly on
the twin stars of the right side, Bot
tomley and Frisch.
On paper. the Yankees, averaging
$50 a. bat, present the most formid-
able array but their defense has been
weakened by the removal Of ice
Dugan. and the long absence Of Tony
Lazzeri, now back at his post but not
up to his 1927 form. The substitution
OF Gene Robertson for Dugan ut third
adds more punch 70 the quartet.
Much Of the late season squirt Of
the Athletics was due to the infield
shift that first put the hard hitting
Foxx on third base, then moved him
to first, with the veteran Jimmy
Dykes at the far corner Bishop and
Boley form a great combination
around second base while Max has
taken a new lease on life at bat.
There isn't n snapper combination
70 watch I'm either league than the in
field quartet or the Giants, NO matter
whether Andy Reese or Andy Cohen
Is nc second base. Terry, always "a
hard sticker, has developed into one
Of the games best first basemen,
while Jackson and Lindstrom present
a stone wall defense on the left
side.
The Cardinal infield, oldest and
weakest hitting Of the four now in
the limelight, has not been together
long enough to function as smoothly
as any Of the others. Il has the
most spectacular fielding second
sacker in Frisch. whose batting has
fallen off, and the leagues leading
cleanup slugger in First Baseman
Bottomley. But the old warhorse,
Rabbit Meanwhile, can't SCOOP 'em
up at short the way Tommy Theve-
now did in 1926 before a broken leg
stopped his progress. Andy High
has replaced Lester Bell at third and
is doing nicely at il but he doesn't
compare with Lindstrom.
Taking five men on each club who
have been doing most Of the infield-
inr, here's how the four pennant on
tending clubs compare MS 70 average
age, biz league experience and bat
ting marks.

Red Ants HMStlin9
With High Hopes OF
State Title Again

Junior high school football club OF
Brownsville, state champions. are 90
ing TO retain the title this year.
That is the spirit in which IS or
more youngsters under Webb Con-
nally, new Junior high coach, are
going through their PAGES each after
noon on the local school field.
The RED Ants" so named from
their ability to spring from nowhere
and crush an opponents threat at
their goal line. will be bedecked in
new uniforms and their colors Of
red and white.
They have been scrimmaEinE quite
a bit among themselves. and Connal-
" IS grounding the youngsters in
the ABCs Of football. They are COM
ing around Ok, Mr.. Connally said
yesterday.
Wednesday afternoon will Be their
first real competition, when they
tangle with the third team OF the
senior high squad a. Z o'clock on the
school diamond.
Games are being sought with All
The junior schools Of the Valley, and
MT. Connally expects 70 have COM
plete schedule sometime this week
for the season.
One game the Ants are looking
forward TO Is that with Ell Jardin
on October rs. on the FL Jardin
field.
There IS a merry scrap on for no
s%itlons, and the most likely looking
boys for these positions are:
Walter Washington and Bob Fer
nandez for center. Washington is q
trifle slow. bat has the knack Of
getting off fast. Fernandez has
proven a steady and dependable cen
ter.
The fight for guard positions re-
wolves around Sid Rousett, ENRIQUE
Garcia and A. Adams.
Parra-last years guard. who il
now a member Of the senior high
squad, will not be missed much as
Garcia is showing up we'll az his post.
Adams Is a big. strong boy and
looks good. while Rousett il one OF
the hardest workers on the squad.
The guard positions nc this time
seem to be we'll taken are Of. and
promise 20 deal misery 70 opposing
lines.
Ems and Ayers. tackles, are the
two most likely looking youngsters
for these positions. These boys are
looking better each day. and Coach

work 80 far.
There are four boys hustlinr 10

Trevino and Raymond Galvan are the
others making a good showing for

The backfield viii be strong, be-
lieves Coach Connally-and il will
have to be TO compare with last years
race horses IN the backfield of the
Red Ants.
Charlie Baker. an earnest. fast
and smart young man. is taking care
Of the quarterback position. Edmond

in that position.
