SERVICE BACKS
BUICK OUTPUT
Mechanical Army K c p .
Up Thousands Of
Cars Sold

The success OF an army In the
field depends almost entirely up
on the support and service of sup
ply behind the lines. General
Pershing emphasized this fact many
times during the World War. and
the Buick Motor company, in its
battle for a perfect transportation
service. has long maintained an
army OF trained mechanics and vast
resources Of supply to support the
thousands Of Bucks that speed over
the highways.
Two big units OF the vast Buick
plant are devoted exclusively to the
manufacture. storage and shipping
or Buick and Marquette parts,
There Is no such word In the Buick
vocabulary as obsolescence. In
back OF the Oldest Buick on the
highWay-and they date back 10
l904-the factory stands ready TO
replace every part Of every auto
mobile 10 has produced.
10000 items Ready
A stock inventory taken at the
close OF business last year showed
that the Buick parts department
carried on hand. ready for imme-
date shipment. some 10000 separate
and distinct items.
Jigs, dies and fixtures Of all
Buick models are kept by the parts
department where they are used
from time to time to replenish the
stock of parts for the older model
cars. This department Is equipped
with the finest machinery money
can buy, and the same high pre-
c.sicn standards which mark the
production of all Buick products
are In evidence in the manufacture
OF Buick parts.
The thoroughness OF the Buick
parts replacement service was DEM
onstrated recently when a farmer
LII Colorado wrote to the factory
for a cylinder crankcase for a mod
el 3 engine, manufactured IN 1904
One Of the first Bucks made.
The writer said ne had junked the
car about ten years ago. but had
been using the engine yer since
to run a buzz saw, corn shelter
and other farm machinery. The
1904 crankcase was sent TO him
promptly. much to his surprise.
"a Zones Maintained
Not only engine parts, but body
parts, tenders, hoods, running
boards and wheels are held in stock
ready for immediate shipment to
motorists all over the world.
In addition to the factory parts
department the Buick Motor COM
pany maintains thirty-four zone
distributing points throughout the
United States where complete stocks
of parts are kept at all times.
Through these distributing points
the company is able to make ship
ments OF parts quickly to dealers
and Buick owners everywhere. Thus
the dealers stock OF parts l. sup
ported BY large stocks az the zone
points and at the factory. enabling
him to offer complete service TO
the Buick owners in his territory.

EXPERT
BIG AIRPLANES
Huge Craft IL Easier In

German Designer

NEW YORK, Dec. T. AIrplanes
TWO TO three times as large as the
huge Dornier Do-x, which flew
with 100 passengers over Lake
Constance, are not only feasible but
Structurally less difficult than the
transport airplanes now being built.
This Is the expert opinion OF DR..
Claude Dornier, designer and build
er OF the worlds largest airpIane.
Dc Oornier arrived in New York
recently to confer with executives
Of General Motors and Fokker
Corporation regarding the con-
struction Of his flying boats In
America. The Dornier Corporation
OF America was incorporated in
Delaware last month by General
Motors Corporation and Fokker
Aircraft Corporation Of America.
1T will be easier to build a
larger boat than IL was to construct
the DO-X," said the famous design
er in a chat with aviation experts
soon after his arrival. ut Is ex-
actly like building a steel steam
ship. AS the size is increased the
sheathing OF the flying boat is made
thicker and notwithstanding becomes
simpler, relatively speaking.

If, which our first editor told
us was bad way to start a
story, you're getting tired of
these world series tintypes, just
say so, and we'll cut them out.
Now that Charlie Grimm, who
will probably do much first
basing for the Cubs in the late
and early afternoons of next
week, is an interesting cuss.
Besides being fair infielder, he
is a splendid, likable fellow and
versatile, too.
Charlie can play the piano,
do a bit of landscape painting,
build a kitchen cabinet, do a
monologue, pick the banjo and
talk three languages. If he
could only initiate four Ha-
waiians he would be an all-round
fellow.
AS captain of the Cubs, Grimm
inspires world of confidence
into the Chicago entry in the
world series. One of the re-
markable things about Grimm
is his stiffness around the old
first bag.
He can move his dogs about
in a twinkling Of an eye when
it is necessary to get wide
throw from across the diamond
and still keep one foot on the
bag. He's fully as capable at
that as our own Joe Judge, so
you can have some idea of how
really good a first sacker
Grimm actually is.
In fielding, therefore, fans
may we'll expect to see Grimm
outclass Jimmy Fox, but in hit
ting-well, that's a zebra of an
other polkadot. Charlie is nor
mally only 300 hitter, al
though he was clipping the pill
for .311 when he was injured
couple of months ago.
He comes up late in the bat
ting order, and very often has
to do some of the slugging
which the cleanup boys have
failed to take care of. He is
30 and has quite a sense of
humor which he uses very han
dily in the drawing room in
connection with his music.
