unusual accuracy in manufacturing.
Beneath its graceful lines and beautiful
colors there is high degree of me-
chanical excellence.
An example of the value built into the
Ford is the use of more than twenty ball
and roller bearings. They are hidden
within the car and you may never see
them. Yet they play an important part
in satisfactory, economical performance.
Their function is similar to the Jewels of
fine watch.
Throughout the Ford chassis, ball
or roller bearing is used at every place
where it is needed to reduce friction
and wear and give smooth, reliable me-
chanicaI operation.
At many points, as on the transmission
counter-shaft, clutch release, fan and
pump shaft, and front drive shaft, these
ball and roller bearings are used where
less costly types of bearings might be
considered adequate.
Additional instances of the high
quality built into the Ford are the ex-
tensive use of steel forgings, fully
enclosed four-wheel brakes, RustIess
Steel, four Houdaille doubIe-acting hy-
draulic shock disorders. aluminium pis-
tons, chrome silicon alloy valves,
torque-tube drive, three-quarier floating
rear axle, and The Triplex shatter-proof
glass windshield.
The Ford policy has always been TO
use the best possible material for each
part and then, through large produc-
ton, give ii to the public at low cost.
Maryland independent. [volume] (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1874-current, 1930-06-13

A SIGNIFICANT TRIBUTE to the value of
N the new Ford is found in its increas-
ing use by Federal, state and city gov
ernments and by large industrial COM
panies which keep careful day-by-day cost
records. In most instances, the Ford has
been chosen only after exhaustive tests
OF every factor that contributes to good
Performance-speed, power, safety, COM
fort, low cost of operation and up-keep,
reliability and long life.
Prominent among the companies using
the Ford are the Associated Companies
of the Bell System, Armour and Com
pany, The Borden Company, Continental
Baking Corporation, Firestone Tire and
Rubber Company, General Electric Com
pany, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com
pany, Kellogg Company, Knickerbocker
Ice Company, Morton Salt Company,
Pillsbury Flour Mills Company, The
Proctor and Gamble Company, and
Swift & Company.
Each of these companies uses large
number of Ford cars ard trucks The
Associated Companies of he Bell System
use more than eight thousand.
Modern business moves al fast pace
and it needs the Ford. Daily, in count
less ways and places, it helps TO speed
the production and delivery of the
worlds goods and extend the useful SER
vice of men and companies.
Constant, steady operation over many
thousands of miles emphasizes the adj
vantages of the sound design of the Ford
car, its high quality of materials, and

The Buffalo boxer tentatively won

A crowd Of 10000 paid $68,859 to
see Monday nights bout. The de-
cision was not unanimous. Referee
Charlie Crowley of New York and
Judge Joe Angelic of New York
voted for Slattery, but the other
Judge, Arthur Donovan of Brooklyn
voted for a draw.
The verdict was popular with the
crowd.
Shortly after the bout, Scozza,
through his manager, Bert Finch,
said he would ask the boxing COM
mission to take the verdict under
advisement.

I'D JACK in December, when this
- present horse race in Indiana
basketball was getting underway
and Blackboard first was thrust upon
you, the conductor was informed in
unquestionable terms that one of his
duties would be to name the state
champion, and that Feb. IS was a
most suitable date. At that time
it appeared to be just an ordinary
task.
Hadn't our predecessor picked the
winner the year before in a $3.50
manner without malice afore-
thought, but with intent in abund-
ance. Now it develops that this sup
posedly insignificant duty has grown
into Primo Carnero proportions. Just
when we pick a team, somebody
knocks EN- off by goodly margin
apparently without thought or re-
gard for our feelings. Our predecs-
sor refuses to divulge his formula
merely smiling benevolently-or is ii
sheer? So, acting on his own
Blackboard has jotted down the fol-
lowing twenty contenders, to con-
slider each individually, and by
Thursday should have them reduced
to ten. BY Saturday 1T should be

the Columbus floor guard. was jolted loose
from his mental equilibrium?
The latter should have been the pri-
mary bit of generalship employed. Had
Holland gone in for Beck on the occasion
of the latters second personal foul. the
hashy Columbus guard might have finished
the game and If he had. would have added
several points to the Columbus total. The
only trouble with Beck was that he was
a bit disgruntled at the combination Of
being of his basket eye and being taken
out of a couple of plays by Lawhead.
Man and boy. I've seen lot Of basket
ball teams and Columbus looks like one
of the best but it could have lost the
Frankfort game by inept substitution at
the right time.

u y
Really, this isn't the question
and answer department.. But Mr..
Beck isn't the first basketball
player to become "disgrunted"
while playing against Lawhead.
He probably won't be the last,
either. Any school have a con-
tract for Coach Epictetus?
Dear Bsckboard-Every one will admit
that Delphi has one of the strongest
teams in the state, and fans have plenty
OF food for thought since the Oracles
managed to beat Shortridge only by four
points at Delphi. And the same Rushville
team that moved down the Campbellmeu
were in turn stopped by the Blue Devils.
Even though Tech did win the city tourna-
ment, I believe it will be a different story
at the sectional. In the city tournament,
it only was necessary for Tech to elimi-
nate Manual. while Shortridge had to
conquer Washington. and Manual was
weakened by the thrilling battle with
Broad Ripple. Watch us from now on.

team: Joe Ford Of Cathedral and Case of
Shortridge, forwards; Reisner, Tech, CEN
ter; Lower of Tech and Madden of Cath
edral, guards. Don't forget Everly, the
Park school forward, who's as warm as
they come.
With the present changes and
those booked for the future, it
soon will be a wise athlete that
knows his own coach.
