Mrs. Russell several weeks ago be-

where she might rent one or two
bedroom house or apartment.
About 10 days ago, she began an

Three days ago, unsuccessful in
her hunt, she was told by a friend
that she should insert colorful ad-

Ersatz Tire Found
Very Satisfactory
In 5OO-MiIe Test
BY the Associated Press.


INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. %. - The
first public demonstration of the
new butadiene synthetic rubber
automobile tire was declared very
satisfactory by experts today after
a gruelling 17-hour test on the his
toric bricks of the indianapolis
motor speedway.
The tire, made of wood pulp waste
products and tested in a 500-mile,
35-mile- hour tour of the famous
race course, was said to have shown
little noticeable wear.
Although air expansion was
slightly higher than that shown by
a natural rubber tire under similar
conditions, the test proved that the
synthetic tire can be driven with
safety at reasonable speeds, Don
Waugh, test supervisor, said. The
tire showed an expansion of % to
80 pounds, Mr.. Waugh said, while
natural rubber tire normally ex-
pands from % to approximately
81 pounds.
The demonstration, conducted
under the auspices of the Chicago
Tribune, began at am. and ended
at pm. During that time the car
was driven continuously at a speed
of 35 miles per hour with only four
stops-all for driver changes-being
made. Mr.. Waugh and Hal Foust,
Tribune auto editor, alternated at
the wheel of the test car.
Authorized by National Rubber
Director William Jeffers to DEM
onstrate the effectiveness of the
Ersatz tire when driven at moderate
speeds, the test will be repeated at
various points throughout the
country, Arthur Grant, Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Co. spokesman, an
nounced. Mr.. Grant said demonstra-
tions were scheduled at Chicago,
Pixies Peak, Utah's Bonneville Salt
Flats and on cross-country roads of
all types.
Mr.. Waugh said one purpose of the
test was to show that good mileage
can be obtained ON synthetic tires
only by moderate speeds and careful
driving.
The Butadiene tire will not stand
the abuse normally given natural
rubber tire" he added. 81
