modesty we can say that we
expect a nationwide circula-
ton within a reasonable time.
Our supplement will cater to very
large public, TO which no one else
has hitherto thought of catering.
American newsstands are jsnimed
with magazines celebrating tire life
histories and exploits CT athletes who
have made good, together with their
accounts OF how they rose from
water-boy to star player, and their
advice, unconsciously cribbed from
Polonius. to those who would be
equally successful.
These magazines are read: % By
the big athletes themselves. who or
der 300 copies to distribute as Christ
mas presents among their under
lings; 90 by other big athletes who
know the real facts and are amused;
90 by earnest water carriers, sec
ord string players and spsrring part
ners who want to get on in the
sports world, and underline in blue
pencil the heroes advice to be phys
lcally fit, to play with that extra
bit Of energy and to drink six glasses
Of water every day; ~ by a hand
ful ow unsuccessful cogs in the great
sports machine Who throw the mag
azine away and mutter that of
course some guys get all the breaks.
The success magazines have only
handful from this fourth class,
but as it is almost the largest class
OF people in the whole country it
should be recognized and provided
with suitable reading matter-with
q medium all its own.
THE name Of our magazine will be
Sport Failures and its vast public
will consist of those who have not
made good, and know it, and further
more are dimly aware that It is too
late to do anything about it except
unite and fight against those who
cause these conditions. The maya
zines chief aim will be to bring solace
to the disappointed and unsuccessful
by showing them that their case is
not a unique instance Of fate'S i'll will,
but that on the contrary, there are
hundreds Of thousands Of others in
the same boat. The supplements chief
piece Of resistance will be authentic
stories Of failure, technically modelled
after the "How-it-feels- -be-a- great
Star-at-l9" pattern Of the success
magazines.
Instead Of interviews with mil
honaire athletes there will be inter-
views with glazing failures and sport
insists. Instead Of the pompous opti-
misn OF the hero who made millions
there will be the caustic Self-analysis
OF the graying aspirant who had to
make way for younger men.
Trained and sympathetic reporters
will be employed by Sports Failure, a
magazine for the majority to scour
the country for interesting and in
structive personal stories OF the I'M

 Those Angora Goats
 Do you remember the woman with the six Angora goats ? The two men with the OK that packed the big load. The two men who arriv- ed with the big wheel around with which they constructed frame with handles at each end flashing their outfit on either side of the whcel-and how it threw the entire load on one man when the wheel dropped in hole in the trail2
 Were you there the morning al man placed big load on steer and the animal started up the tent ed trail tearing into first one tent then another, depositing slab of bacon, a tin pot, sack of beans, ap- ricots, dried apples or desicated eggs at every jump and leaving be- hind smoke screen of flour?
 Did you hear Percy Hunting re- cite "The Raven?" Bob Wetzel pick the banjo? And I wonder if you ever staked Babe Wallace to al stack of chips at the black jack table? How many of you waltzed to the bar with the Oatley sisters --or heard Sweet Marie warble Sweet Bunch of Dasies?" Did you contribute to Cad Wilson's nugget belt? Did you throw a dimond hitch on the Oregon Mare or the Montana Fillie? Remember the night in Dawson when Sweet Wat CT Willie" was staged? And the night Nigger Jim started the down river stampede?
 Remember how we used to pay a quarter ounce of gold dust ($4) for coffee and doughnuts at the mouth of Hunker? The beans are burning so l must stop reminiscing.

answer to this question should also

Otherwise, it hardly would seem
logical that the numerous European

spring suspension many years ago
would continue to use it.
Moreover, it is hardly conceivable
Or reasonable that both General Mo-
tors and the Chrysler Corporation,
the two largest manufacturers of
automobiles in the world, who have
so much at stake, would purpoSely
gamble on damaging their respective
regulations by Incorporating in their
cars a device without first spending
months and possibly years of labora-
tory test work to determine its value
and above all, safety factors.
In fact, the truth is both of these
organizations have done just that
very thing. In the case of General
Motors, it surely is no longer a secret
that their engineering department
has been developing and testing
this type of wheel springing at their
laboratories and mammoth proving
grounds for the last two or three
years.
To date there have been three
types of front wheel spring suspen-

about the same thing, namely the
elimination of road shock, which
means a smoother ride.

type used in previous models. The
new type brings the greatest
strength where it is needed and
works much better with the new
type of front end suspension.
Brakes on the new Chevrolet are
of the double -articulated type with

length of the lower shoes. Both
front and rear brakes are of the
diagonal full cable control type with

already have received their share Of
publicity and opinions, favorable
and otherwise. This Of course, is to
be expected, even though it now has
been definitely established that all
General Motors and ChrySler units,
as well as Hudson Terraplane, will
equip cars with this new feature.
For as long as any new device has
not been given the unanimous
stamp of approval by the entire
automobile industry, there is bound
to remain differences of opinion as
to its advantages.
Turning back the pages of the in
dustry's history just few years one
can find such differences of opinion
demonstrated time and time again.
Two specific examples we're the
introduction of four wheel brakes,
and more recently, free wheeling
Upon the introduction of each of
these mechanical changes, the in
dustry was divided in two groups.
Those who were responsible for
pioneering the idea were of course
highly in favor of the new features,
and sang their praises far and wide.
The other group, who opposed the
idea, comprised those manufacturers
whose automobiles were not
equipped with the new devices. They
frowned and said, tits impractical,
possibly unsafe, and therefore of
no value"

manufacturers who are sponsoring
it in their new cars are singing it's
praises and advantages. While those
who are not, are sitting on the side

posely marking time to determine
whether it is practical, and above
all, whether or not the buying pub
