MOTORISTS SHOULD
KNOW SOMETHING
ABOUT OILINC

"Today's motorist doesn't know as
much about the harmful effects of
gum in his motor as he should" is the
startling statement made by Mr.. R.
Wier, Jr., Sun Oil Company's district
branch manager.
perhaps it's because gum has al
ways been looked upon as necessary
evil" he continued, cor perhaps it's
because those who know, don't like
to talk about gum, but I still insist
motorists should know more than
they do about its harmful effects.
"Gummy deposits are cooked out
of many motor oils by high heats.
Such gum is almost as thick ana
sticky as roofers' tar and one OF the
places it forms is on the piston rings
of the car. Now you know that these
rings have been built into the pistons
in a collar-like form which permits the
rings to contract and expand as the
piston slides up and down inside the
cylinder.
"The purpose of these expanding
and contracting rings is to always
provide tight seal between the pls-
ton and cylinder wall. This achieves
two things. First it prevents power
leaks and secondly, it prevents raw
gasoline from flowing down the cylin-
der wall and diluting the motor OIL
Now if these rings are gummed or
glued tight into the piston, it is OBJ
vious that the motor is losing power
and that the oil is being diluted.
Here's what Pm leading up to
Sunoco Oil does not form any gummy
deposits. That's because it is Mer'
curry Made, because it is absolutely
pure. Time and again we've check
ed Sunoco fabricated motors that have
gone tens of thousands of miles with
out finding even trace of gum. But
that's not all which prevents harmful
crankcase sludge from clogging oil
lines-which keeps out power-killine
hard carbon and which prevents the
formation of acids that are harmful
to many of the new type alloy bear
ings. In other words, there are lot
of very genuine, honest, fact-ful reas-
ons behind the statement that Sunoco
Oil Keeps Motors Young"

Lefty Gomez, the goofy one, who
has never lost a series game, fired
his Sunday pitch past the Giants
TO win the final game, AZ, before
38,216 on bleak, chilly day. The
Giants raped Gomez for 10 hits,
but they could not score in the
clutches. The only way they ever
got a man around was When Mel
OFT hit the only Giants homer of
the series with Dick Bartell on
base in the third inning to tie
the score.
Every time the Giants threaten
ed, Gomez slamed that fireball of
his down the alley. When things
got really serious there was old
Tony scampering around second
base, saving the game.
The Giants had man on in
the fifth ready to start rally when
Laz2eri scooped up a grounder to
retire the side. They had two men
on in the sixth when Lazzeri COB
bled up Whiteheads grounder to
end the inning. In the seventh they
put two men on again, when Laz-
zeri smothered Ripple's roller and
threw him out at first.

BRAWLEY, Oct. IL Ted Key,
powerful wrestling king of the Pa

way to a straight fall victory over
Chief CheWaki in the feature event
at the Brawley arena Saturday
night.
Key downed the Indian scalp
hunter in straight falls despite the
foul tactics used BY the Chief. Che
waki, noted for his hate for the
white race. gave battle in the long
first fall but couldn't match the
strength of the former football star
in the second round
Arjah Singh, Hindu mat artist,
grunted and groaned Nick Lutte
into submission in the main event.
Singh, his peculiar style continually
puzzling the popular Lutte, bore in
from the first, using every hold in
the books and several more that are
MT, to subdue the clever Los Ange-
les mailman in straight tails.
Singh incurred the wrath of the
enthusiastic crowd early in the bout
but gained the applause of those
same customers when he put down
Lutte with a battling hold to win
the second fall and victory.
Riley and Baxter put on a good
show in the opener with the Irish

X EEP LOSING
RECORD INTACT

Ell Centro Junior college Arabs
kept their losing record intact at
Central stadium Saturday night
when the Arabs bowed 1872 to a
powerful Phoenix Bear eleven.
Only on one occasion did the Ar
abs force Phoenix into Bear terri
tory-in the third quarter, when
Feeney kicked out of bounds on the
Phoenix 10 yard line. On that oc-
casion the Arabs tackled Domin-
CUES. Bear reserve back, behind the
goal line for safety and their only
score of the night.
The rest of the game was played in
Ell Centro territory with Phoenix in
command of the situation.
The Phoenicians went into the
lead early in the first quarter when
Feeney fumbled a pass from center
on the Ell Centro 10 and was down.
ed behind the goal
Another safety in the second per-
iod, when Feeney again fumbled be-
hind the goal, gave the Bears 40
lead with three minutes to play IN
the half.
An exchange of kicks on which
Phoenix gained 20 yards paved the
way for the first Bear touchdown.
Boyd faded back to midfield and
heaved a pass to Gatchell who gal
Topped over for the score. Mitch
ellis try for extra point was short.
The Bears completely dominated
the second half and scored their
final touchdown in the fourth quar-
ter when Boyd carried the ball 35
yards on three plays for the score.
Mitchell's try for point was short
again.
The Arab defense was above aver
age. Three times they held inside
the 10 yard line. Tagg, Blakely and
Feeney were outstanding for the
losers.
