The ability of Studebuker's pat
ented bull bearing spring shuckh
to stand up undyir the most severo
type of service is emphasised In .i
recent statement made by Itulpii
Hepburn, th noted rating driver.
Hepburn was one of the pilots
tvho drove four Sfudebuker J'resi
dent olghts t j new world speed und
nedurance records in tho 30,00'j
mile run held at tho Atlantic City
speedway last .summer. Since the
completion of thfrrun he has been
driving No' 1 - rottdsler tho cur
which finished the SO, 0K0 miles i.i
minutes on a -tour of tho
country thu has tuk-n him
through 29 states and registered
more than 52,000 mites on tho
speedometer. -
'The ball bearing spring shackle
on my car ore functioning perfect
ly, without the least notsu and with
no appreciable, wear,"' Hepburn
said. "To the best of my know
ledge tho only httention they hud
was ordinary lubrication lit the
completion of the 30,00l mile run,
when they wero examined by Htu-
debaker engineers. Htnee then they
have had no attention what over,
In spito of tho fact that during my
travels In the south this spring the
car 'has hnd thp tinniest kind or
service resulting from detours made
necessary by floodr-d roads "
The rorne condition Is reHrlc 1 j
