CROSBY, RESTED,
 OPPOSES WEAK NAUeY SQUAD
Traditional Rivals Here
 Saturday; Leavenworth Stops Gilbert Iz-6

It's Crosby and Naugatuck this week Saturday at the Municipal Stadium in a high school football game that ought to provide the usual brand of sport thrills when these two teams come together on field, court or diamond. Crosby was rained out in New London Sat- urday, while Naugatuck was taking a TO shutout from Shelton indi- eating one of the weakest borough teams in years.
 Wilby, . 1920 loser to Weaver of Hartford is still seeking it's first win and has little chance of getting 1t against the able and tough team from Torrington. where WlIby goes Saturday.
 Leavenworth, the surprise of the local high school squads, and long overdue for its first win of the year was still celebrating its 12 to 6 vic- tory over a Gilbert team from Wir- sted that defeated Wilby 7-6 in 9 night game on the lccal field. Sweet Victory
 Improving by the week, Leaven- worth showed its stuff in the game with Crosby. though a 7-6 loser, reepetition of the 1888 result, Coach Bill Tracy got his lads on edge and they lost no time starting against Gilbert holding a 12-0 lead at half time, Doran and Lazesky scoring touchdowns in the first and second periods. Gilbert came back in the third for it's lone score, six-point- CT, while the Tech Tigers held nice- ly in the final heat to score more points against an opponent than either Crosby or Wilby thus far this season. The game was hardly un- der way when Lazeski and Green had the ball on the Winsted 27, but the ball was lost when Tech had to kick. They were not to be denied however. as Silverio passed to De- ran for the first score for Leaven- worth shortly hereafter. For Gil- bert, Curtin was the standout while Lazesky, Traver and Green were the Tech ground-gainers and point makers. Summary:

Autonotive Hints
By FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.


Any more tax on motoring and
many pocketbook will be due for
a puncture.
I never cease to wonder at the
new problems that develop in this
business of keeping up with auto
mobiles. The latest is one that runs
the gamut from chemistry to throat
ailments, truly strange concoction
of caues and effect such as should
startle the most hard-boiled de-
fender of the idea that automobiles
are no longer interesting.
The matter first came to my at
tention when prominent woman
reader of my weekly motor chats
complained of very obnoxious
odor she noticed when driving her
car. Annoyingly enough, some pas
sengers neither noticed the odor
nor were visibly affected by it. To
her, however, it was serious
menace to health. Her physician had
told her that if the irritation con-
tinued 1t might lead to something
serious. I went into the problem
carefully with her, and also took
into the consultation an interested
mechanic. Our conclusion was that
the odor was some breakdown Of
bad lubricant, but we wrongly sus-
pected that since there was some
vapor coming from the crankcase
the odor emitted from the breather
pipe. 1t remained for factory
chemist to discover, largely from
a previous experience of the same
kind, that the ordor originated
from cheap lubricant in the trans
mission gears. The vapor actually
was poisonous.

NEWS OF THE MOTORING WORLD
American Automobile Association Clubs in All Sections View 1889
Business Conditions With Confidence and Optimism

sales steadily upward in volume.
Department store sales up. Car
loadings gaining.
Congress. Session expected to
have stimulating effect on business
and industry; devoted to reshaping
social security program to forestall
new pension movements. Revision
of labor legislation may come.
Pump-priming to continue, particu-
larly as regards ornaments and
adjustments for national defense
New relief policies may come and
expenditures may be slightly cur
tailed. No disturbing revision of
general tax structure in sight.
Forecast. Fifteen to 20 per cent
upswing in production and sales VOL

or over.
Mr.. Russell, after study of the
1889 outlook in general, sees bright
days ahead for the American Auto
mobile Association itself in its fight
for safer and better motoring, and
comments as follows:
Reviews of the old year and fore
casts for the new year published
herein bespeak an abundance of
enthusiasm and aggressiveness with
in the A. A. A. family.
From every section of the country,
krom clubs large, medium and small
come evidence .of determination to
make 1899 one of the most success
full years in the history of the Amer
ican Automobile Association.
Club arrangements, from the
standpoint of service and selling or
CARNATIONS are being geared and
trained for great selling effort
an effort which should mean a mil
lion members by the close of this
year.
Above all, the tone of the reviews
and forecasts being placed before
you reflect most wholesome mental
attitude as regards the future of
motor clubs and their place in the
national structure.
Perhaps never before has there
been such a surprising degree Of
unanimity of opinion among club
executives as regards the outlook
for new year; such keen grasp
of the fundamental requisites for
well-rounded and fully-functioning
motor clubs, and such evidence of
cooperative action to build up the
clubs which comprise the American
Automobile Association chain.
On the basis of kilograms and
letters which have come to ma
tional headquarters from every
section of the country-messages
which together present a national
picture-and factual data in fields
which have a definite bearing on
the motor club movement. it is
possible to set forth the following
high lights.
