THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 27, 1924 LIFE IMPORTANT AAA Claims Average Driver Is More Interested in This , Than Gas Milage r ' WASHINGTON, D. C, July" 26. Close to $300,00 in prize money for automobile racirig events was distributed by the Contest Board of , the American Automobile As sociation during 192.3, according : to figures Bust made public at the Washington headquarters of the AAA. Ts covers 88 events, 66 of which were on dirt tracks. Altogether there were 33 4 cars registered in this contest work, which is generally regarded as the backbone of American automotive engineering development. Exact : ly 523 drivers were required to handle these cars with an addi- w-vv? m Low Inflation . , i i These great oversize C-T-C band-built cords were the first tires of any kind to be built especially iW greater riding comfort and to "conserve the car".. .". .!. ' r. . K . - - -- - And today they are still the only standard cords in which is proved the strength to carry' JTVKooably low inflation and yet Set maximum mileage. If la because bct- i trf materials and hand-workman-ship, hare produced a more durable C-T-C tire. i Is ml a C-T-C kaa-lmi!t BaW tmmm tin . far cztrraM lw inflatiam. which ftta mmr ataaaard wheel and rim.

' The; Contest Board points to the unpopularity of reliability and economy runs as evidence of the great change that has come over motoring as a result of the speed events sanctioned by the AAA. The report: shows that there was but one reliability and economy run sanctioned during the past year. "The reliability run is no long er necessary." the Board's bulletin reads. "The remarkable : perfor mance displayed by small displace; ment racing cara and the ability of these cars to withstand the pun inshment of a 50-mile speedway event Is proof enough to the aver age motorist that the ; American car manufacturers, and the acces sory manufacturers, , have been able to place reliability on a re markably high plane. The public enjoys an occasional 'stunt, hut the big 'stunt 13 the way cars stand up on the speedwaws and dirt tracks. j "Under sanctions of the AAA Contest Board 2050 miles were run off on the speedways as against 3170 on the dirt tracks. Every mile of this was a reliability run in itself. j "So far as economy is concern ed the average car owner nowa days is more interested in the economy of car life rather than In gas mileage. He knows that the lessons learned track are being from the applied to race the building of more truswrhytto cars, which in the long run is the real economy to consider. "The biggest j amount of prize money was distributed at the speedways. These eight big events involved prizes amounting to $205,000. paid to the people who make a business of making the automobile perform beyond our greatest expectations. $91,075 was distributed at the dirt tracks- "On July -3tn Jimmy Murphy headed the list in the annual AAA championship face with 1095 points to his credit. Cooper fol lowed with 600,! Corum with 5.70, Fengler with 548 and Hartz with 51l Comer. HU1, Wondertih and Milton are all under 300 but above, the 200 mark. Boyer stands at 15, Vail at 34 and Dur ant at 5, but one is reminded that the year is still young." - TO KKK XATUHAIj GAS WELL. In the days when the oil fever was at white beat in Yamhill county and when natural gas had been obtained at Amity In a deep well sunk for oil on the New man place, the Cass Riggs well was always pointed out as an in dication of gas in this section of the state.- Y , .; he Riggs well furnishes enough gas for cooking; and lighting pur poses, A party of summer school students from the O. A. C, will visit the Riggs? place on Saturday -and will experience the thrill of enjoying coffee and tea cooked by Oregon natural gas, said to be colorless and harmless arid odor less, j j At, Buena Vista, the student party, under direction of Prof. J. B. Horner and j Dean M. El wood Smith, will visit the old clay beds and a pioneer will describe the old pottery first used In Oregon. v An instructor in sculpturing at the University of Oregon, has recently declared that the clay is admir ably suited to modeling and will be used at the stale university in the classes in clay modeling.

Hannum, pres ident and general manager of the Oakland Motor Car company, Pon tiac, Mich. ! M The presidential nomination and political pariy issues are pretty well settled, he states, so that any uncertainty in business caused by presidential elections may be elim inated from consideration. . '"With 13,500,000 passenger cars in service, the replacement market alone amounts to 2,000, 000 cars this year, which is suf ficient to kill the old bugaboo re garding the saturation point," Mr. Hannum points out -. J f "The agricultural situation is very much improved and there is prospect of the farmer getting back into the market, something which. we have been expecting for a long time. I "Rates on! loans are exception ally1 low and there seems to be plenty of money available for legi timate enterprises. You will also note that the stock market has been a rising one lately. f "A number or. companies have announced , their new models or are about to announce them which will clarify !the situation by ; re moving the reason for many mo torists deferring the purchase of a car. . .v-t i : "In addition, there is a markod tendency towards higher prices for motor cars, which is always a favorable factor for the retail trade. I 1 "It is the combination of these signs that gives promise of a good tall business. ' f "Despite considerable talk of a poor spring, our retail business for the first six months of this year was 35 per cent greater than for the same period last year the banner, sales year inthe motor car business. I !. '. f "I really think that much of the pessimism late this spring was due to the fact that the publiic and motor car dealers, too, do not yet fully appreciate that the motor car business Is an ; all the year round business.. These disappoint ed with the: June and July sales did not fully realize that the splen did sales ' during i the winter months took up much of the slack which we formerly expected in the form of a boom period during the summer months."

A Nearly everybody understood that 'the : proceedings were tele phoned by long distance to the va rious broadcasting points." This was, in a. measure,- true, but' It does not tell the whole story. Three long " distance circuits were maintained between the con vention halls: and. each .of the broadcasting " stations. One was for transmission of , the proceed ings, one 'for emergencies and one for necessary conversation J be tween the operators at each end. Some stations 'had more than three 1 wirek and some Added tele. graph connections. Reside this, special amplifying apparatus had to he installed to boost the strength of the radio signals, be fore they werewired to the broad casting points. . ..
