CAB IS
ABOVE ENGINE
General Motors introduces
Model Conforming to
Modern Trend.

A private showing Of cab-over-
the-engine type of medium and
heavy-duty motor truck was held at
the factory branch of the General
Motors Truck Company at 81 West
Thirteenth street last week.
The host was H. j. WATSON, Indi-
annapolis zone manager.
Pierre Schon of the General
Motors Truck Company home office
staff, a nationally recognized au-
thority on transportation subjects,
discussed the salient features and
construction of the models and gave
short illustrated talk on THE
Trend of Motor Vehicles Legislation
and a New Deal in Transportation.
Advantages Shown
The advantages to be gained by
the use of this type of truck were
clearly shown. With shorter wheel
base, consequent leSsening of over
all length, reduced turning radius
and practical weight distribution be-
tween front and rear axle, much
greater pay load is possible-all
within the limits of correct legiS-
laitve restrictions.
Driver comfort is enhanced by
wind tunnel cab cooling, ease of
steering, gear shifting and braking.
Convenient accessibility is pro-
vided for both minor and major re-
pairs. Short wheelbase design per-
mits construction betterments such
as shorter drive shaft and more COM
pact braking mechanism.
Less garage space is also required.
1t solves to the greatest possible eX-
tent the difficulties encountered by
reason of congested traffic and mar
row streets, and is equally adj
vantageous under average or favor
able conditions.
Those in attendance manifested
great interest in the truck and in
the remarks of the speaker. They
were impressed with the fact that
this type of vehicle seems to be in
line with the developments which
will be made in medium and heavy
duty trucks to meet demands of the
future.

Not Cagey
Scissors Wounds Negro
in Court Game.

TINE next time Isaiah Burse, 16,
L Negro, zoos Cornell avenue,
plays basketball, he probably will
search his opposing players, as a
matter of safety.
Late yesterday, the youth was
sent to city hospital for treatment
for a cut on the leg received dur
ing a basketball game at the j. T.
v. Hill community center from
pair of scissors in the pocket of
Webster Peterson, IA, Negro, 1905
Cornell avenue.
The two were jumping for the
ball when the accident occurred.
A bullet has more penetrating
power at thirty feet than at two
feet; it "wobbles" for some distance
on leaving the gun, and this lessons
its effectiveness.

HOW OIL FILTER WORKS
Two Pounds of Dirt Collected in
5000 to 10000 Miles.

In 5000 to 10000 miles of driving
the oil filter removes as much as
two pounds of dirt, sludge and other
foreign matter from the oil, thus
protecting bearings, piston rings,
pistons and cylinder walls.
1t is important that the flltering
element of the oil filter be renewed
every 5000 to 10000 miles, as after
this mileage it becomes filled with
foreign matter taken from the oil
and ceases to function at highest
efficiency.

counsel, yesterday hayed the state
administration.
Speaking before members Of the

Groninger cited President Roose-

politically-minded lawyers against
attempting to capitalize party serv-
ice by trying to influence govern

Il wonder what President Roose-

importers as they have been selected
in Indiana and the unjuStifiable
profits they are making?" Mr..
Groninger asked.
Beer Handling F1ayed
He cited figures to prove that the
beer importers collect more profit in
handling imported key beer than
the state receives in taxes. He
charged the present state admins

incompetency, extravaganza and

said Mr.. Groninger, "I. cite the
wholesale dismissal and removal of
faithful and heretofore nonpolitical
employees of our various state in
situations to make berths for ode
serving Democrats"
A glazing example of incompe-

the graduation exercises at the
