French Auto Design
Has No Front Axle,
Dual Steer Control

PARIS, July DISCRIMINATION
of the front axle, independent
springing of each front wheel and a
dual steering control are suggested
as the solution of many automobile
difficulties by d. Sensaud de La
vaud, an engineer famed for orig
inality in design. Several Of his in
ventions have been exhibited at the
Paris Auto Salon.
independent springing Of front
wheels is found on a number Of
French cars and it is claimed for
the system that it avoids the twist
ing motion Of the chassis on rough
roads. But the old steering system
is in general use.
De Lavaud's idea is that dual
steering control of the front
wheels, properly sprung, would
eliminate "gyroscopic motion" and
make unnecessary the irreverSibil-
ity Of a steering gear. The car,
also. he thinks, would be handled
better by connecting each wheel
with the steering mechanism in
stead of steering one wheel which
controls the other through a tie
rod.

in this vicinity. If two clubs-a service

RANGERS, AMERICANS
KEEP HOCKEY LEADS
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January with more
than one-third of the season gone III
the National Hockey League, it seems
that the race should be spreading out
a bit, but except for the two tail-end
teams just the opposite is happening.
Five games last night served only to
break the tie for third place in the
American group and bring the four
teams that are battling for the top of
the international group closer together.
After period Of discouraging defeats
that saw Pittsburgh climb up on equal
terms with them the Boston Bruins
broke into the winning column and
ended the deadlock by beating Ottawa,
to 0, while the Pirates were losing
to the Montreal Maroons. Harry Oliver,
Boston's star wing, was a big factor in
the victory, scoring two of the goals.
Ottawa, without victory in eight
games, remains at the bottom of the
international division.
Detroit chung to the heels of the New
York Rangers, American group leaders,
by handing the Chicago Blackhawks a
second successive defeat, by 2-to-1
score. The tail enders of the division
could not break through the Detroit de-
fense when the Cougars fell back into
their own territory after two early
scores.
The Rangers retained their 3-point
margin Of leadership and helped add to
the tangle in the other division by TAX
ing fast game from Toronto. 8 to 2.
Manager Les Patrick started his substi-
tutes against the Leafs, but the regulars
did the scoring, two goals going to Bill
Cook and one to Brother Bun. Four of
the five counters were made in the final
period. The defeat dropped Toronto out
of q tie for second place in the inter-
national group into tie for third
The Maroons took undisputed possess
sion of second place when Nels Stewart
led them to 4-to-2 triumph over Pitts
burgh. Stewart scored three Of the goals
in addition to taking an effective hand
in the defense work.
A high-speed game that ended In a
1-all tie between the New York Amer
leans and the Montreal Canadians
brought further complications in the
standing. The single point carried the
flying Frenchmen into deadlock with
Toronto for third place. while 1t cost
the Americans valuable point in their
margin over the Maroons. New York
now leads the group by a single game.

Coach Eddie McNichol's Pennsyl-
vania five of last season. Eastern

careful watching.
McNichol is one of the closest
students of basket ball in the game
and often switches his style of at
tack from one game to the other In
order to offset the careful scouting
of his opponents. For example, last
Winter Eddie's team used the out
of-bounds play shown here in some
of its earlier games.
The. idea was that No. would
charge at opponent B, followed by
G, and block B so his teammate No.

But when Penn and Princeton met

CHICAGO, January 2.-Ethel Lackie.

competition.
Following the example of Johnnie

to forsake the amateurs for more Mcra-
tive occupations. together with. Weiss
muller, Miss Lackie, who holds six world
sprint swimming records, will make her
final amateur appearance Thursday
night at the Cook County interscholastic
swimming championship meet.
Like Weissmuller, Miss Lackie felt
that she had been in competition long
time and swimming for glory only"

She began her series of sensational
swimming performances five years ago
as a member of the Illinois Athletic
Club. When that organization dis
banded its woman teams she continued
her record breaking performances under
the colors of the Illinois Womans
Athletic Club.
She holds the United States indoor

TARHEELS, IN WEST,
BATTLE OHIO STATE
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, January 2-Another inter-
sectional tinge will be given the West
ern Conference preseason basket ball
program tonight, when North Carolina
meets Ohio State at Columbus and
Michigan clashes with Cornell at Ann
Arbor.
The only other Big Ten team in ac-
ton tonight will be Chicago, which
meets Beloit at Bartlett gym.
The Southerners always have ranked
among the best from below the Mason
Dixon line, but the Ohio State game
will be their first introduction to basket
ball as played in the Big Ten. The
Buckeyes, weak at center position, have
built their offensive around Fesler of
foot ball fame.
Michigan, which appears to be COM
ing up with leaps and bounds, Is ex-
pected to have little trouble with Cor
nell, and should give Coach Veenker
another good opportunity to experiment
bit.
Chicago's game with Beloit will be
the first chance the Maroon fans have
of seeing the Norgren-coached five in
action since the opener with Monmouth
early in December. Coach Norgren has
been driving for more scoring punch
a total loss in games played to date.
