PLACE FOR HUPPS
Engineer Tells of Practical
Tests Given New Cars
On Mountains
; Where are the best automobile
proving grounds in the United
Statesf Frank E. Watts, chief
engineer of the Hupp Motor Cai
Corporation, gives a reply which is
at once epigrammatic and prac
tical.
"The best automobile proving
grouds in the United States," he
ays, "are all over the Lnited
States."
The remark illustrates the
method by which Hupp cars are
tested for performance and dura
bility before they are permitted to
go Into the hands of buyers.
"Wherever and whenever we
flail unusual conditions, especially
In concentrated forms," the Hupp
chief engineer explained, "we take
advantage of the facilities which
Nature has provided and man can
not duplicate even at very great
expensed'
Hills can be built, Mr. Watts
went on to observe. So can race
tracks. But you can't manufac
ture unusual climate, wide atmos
pheric variations, high altitude
and real mountains. When Hupp
deslrea to make sure of the stam
ina of new cars or new car feat
ures, it subjects them to the ac
tual conditions they will have to
face in owners' use. .
, "Proving new cars, as we do It,
Is a rather expensive but decided
ly worth while practice," said Mr.
; Watts. "We send teat cars thous
ands. In fact hundreds of thous
ands of milea to subject them to
the experience that subsequent
owners will meet in their use ot a
"car.
; When we were developing our
Century cara and wanted to know
what they would do in extremely
cold climates, we aent some to
Minnesota in the dead of winter,
when the thermometer was suc
cessfully flirting with 40 below
temperatures. Thus we could test
them in actual and severe winter
conditions and were able to check
the cold weather efficiency of va
rlous starting and lubricating sys
teuns beyond all question.
"Other cars went in midsummer
to Phoenix, Arizona, when It was
120 in the shade and no shade.
Cooling systems can receive a test
there never possible anywhere
else. Upholstery and paint prove
theirun resisting qualities in Ar
izona; and oil and air cleaners are
(tried to capacity with alkali dust,
which is extremely destructive to
engines. In fact, general hot
weather performance can be ac
curately determined in the Ari
zona test.
"To find out what a car will do
in high altitudes we take it to
Colorado and Utah and when It
has climbed over the Rockies for
a few months we know all about
ita axle gearing and Ita power and
hill climbing abilities all about
the effect of high altitude on car
buretors and cooling. But high
altitude conditions don't exist in
Michigan and can't be reproduced
there.
"To test the 'mud hog' ability
of a car we choose Kentucky, Ten
nessee Or Missouri, each of which
can boast a special brand of mud
unexcelled for etickineae and gen
eral contrariness. Here we ride
for milea, running boards drag
ging through mud, carrying, in
addition to a fall load of passen
gers and luggage six hundred
pounds or more ot juat plain mad.
Then we know what road clear
ance and engine power mean.
"We send cars south and stop
off for a moment at the famous
Uniontown hill but not for long
for there are hills in the Carolina
even more difficult. We try them
out and pass on to get the effect
of sea level altitudes on carbur
etors and other features that must
suit both low and high altitudes
The salt alr'e effect on perform
ance and car finish are incidental
revelations which are carefully
noted.
"Before wo ever show the pub
lic any of our new models, we
know juat what they will do in the
hands of their owners. We don't
have to use slide rules and add
ing machines to figure out from
theoretical data what their hill
climbing abilities are or what ef
fect altitudes or temperature vari
ations will have. The cars have
already shown us. They have
passed the acid test of actual road
performance on the precise kind
of roads and in the precise condi
tions where owners will use
them."

In March, for the second consec
utive month, the Marmon Motor
Car company broke all monthly
production records In its history
and, at the same time, established
two new daily sales records and
shipped more cars to foreign coun
tries than ever before.
March shipments of the Mar
mon '6S" and "78" exceeded the
previous high record established
in February of this year by slight
ly more than 20 per cent. A sim
ilar increase was recorded in ex
port shipments which were 19 per
per cent greater than last May, the
per cnt gratr than last May, the
largest month in 1927.
From all figures available it ap
pears that the company so far this
year has manufactured a greater
number of straight-eight automo
biles than any other company in
the Industry. In the first quarter
of 1928 the company more than
doubled its business over the same
period last year and has a produc
tion schedule for the remaining
nine months that shows an even
larger increase over 1927.
Included in the record March
were four solid trainloads of auto
mobiles, one to Montreal, Canada,
which was the first trainl6ad ever
to be shipped by Marmon outside
the boundaries of the United
States. Two trainloads were ship
ped ' to the eastern seaboard and
one to the Pacific coast. The Bos

Marmon sold more cars than ever

Special System Now Exclu
sive Development and
Very Efficient
combination of pump, splash and
gravity feed which is an exclusive
Ford development.
In design and in operation it is
simple and positive and repeated
tests have shown it to be ideally
suited to this somewhat revolu
tionary type of four-cylinder, medium-speed,
medium-compression
motor.
The oil pump is located in the
bottom of the crank-case and is
run off a gear on the camshaft. It
is enclosed in a fine mesh wire
screen through which the oil filt
ers before it is pumped up into
the valve chamber. The screen is
surrounded by a shield so that the
oil is pulled through it, rather
than flowing in by gravity. The
oil flows into the valve chamber
in a continuous stream whenever
the engine is running, but is in no
sense a "forced" feed. It is rath-1
er the full load of the pump being
delivered in a smooth, flowing
stream. The principal purpose of
delivering the oil to the valve
chamber is to provide direct grav
ity feed lubrication to the bear
ings of the crankshaft. However
it also supplies exceptional lubri
cation for the valves, giving bet
ter and quieter action, - and by
gravity to the front and cam-shaft
bearing.
Small pipe openings lead down
from the valve chamber to the
crankshaft main bearings and oil
flowing down these by gravity pro
vides an abundance of lubrication
The bottom of the valve chamber
is so arranged, through the use of
small, inbuilt dams to provide res
ervoirs of oil for each main bear
ing pipe opening.
As the engine rests in the chas
sis on a three-degree angle, slop
ing to the rear, the oil arriving in
the valve chamber flows back,
filling the first reservoir; then
over the little dam, filling the sec
ond reservoir, and then over again
to the third and last reservoir.
From this point the overflow oil
Is carried by . an external pipe
down to the front end of the oil
pan In the crankcase where it
flows back over the pan, filling
the troughs through which the
connecting rods are lubricated and

ing vans and good supply of blankets and pads for furni
ture handlers.

warehouse and are now well prepared to handle best of

SALEM, OREGON
from which all other moving parts
are sprayed by the splash system.
From the pan the oil flows to the
bottom --of the case to bo pumped
back again.
This rather unique system of
engine lubrication is responsible in
large measure for the excellent
performance of the motor at a
wide range of speeds and under all
climatic conditions. When the
