Richfield People Exceed the
Tests Required of Na
tional Corporation
Declaring that Riehfield-Ethrl
gasoline is actually "different"
from other "Ethyls" that it is
measurably different to an extent
of as much as 40 per cent the of
ficials of the Richfield Oil com
pany have just issued a formal
atateraent disclosinp that tests
have snown RichTield-Etfcyl to be
far higher than even the hign
standards demanded by the' Ethyl
Corporatioa of Aftieriea.
The Ethyl Corporation, to in
lure a truly premium Ethly gaso
line." says the statement, '"has
wisely insisted upon a very high
standard of gasoline by all of its
licensees.
"This standard, plus the neces
sary 2 cubic centimetters of Ethyl
compound per gallon, insures an
efficient anti-knock fuel for all
motors up to 5 to 1 compression
ratio.
C, Actually Better
"The same amount of Ethyl,
however, addsd to the new super
Richfield. produce? an anti-knock
high compression gasoline effi
cient up to 7.5 to 1 compression
actually 40 per cent better."
After describing Ethyl com
pound as only the '"cream in your
coffee", the RichTleld statement
adfts that "the actual difference
ta gasolines is in the fuel itself."
Richfield official? and dealers
la Salem explain that before it
was decided to blend Ethyl with
Richfield, the company developed
from racin? and aviation experi
ence a really high-test supf-r-fuel
for the new hiph compression en
gines. That accomplished, it was de
cided to offer motorists an even
finer and more perfect fuel, and
the Ethyl franchise was arranged
for.rh new fnY being red exclu
sively for the Ethylized gasoline
under the blue and gold Richfield
banner.

Bf HEW METHOD
"Bituminous macadam" Is a
name that is seen frequently in
articles relating to highway work
In Oregon. This name Is applied
to a type of surfacing which is
smooth and at the same time skid
proof affording traction, during
stormy weather and making wet
weather driving much safer.
In Oregon the major feature in
connection with betterment work
during the past two years consist
ed in the construction of bitumin
ous macadam surfacing amount
ing to 107.3 miles. In 1273.29
miles of bituminous macadam of
various types were laid in an ex
perimental way and the results
were so favorable that over 100
miles were laid in 19 28. Bitumin
ous macadam differ from oil ma
cadams in that it has a much
greater thickness. This type of

surfacing Is a still further inter
mediate type between the oil ma
cadams and a pavement and judg
ing from experience there is a
very definite place for it in this
state.
According to the Oregon State
Motor association, the method of
construction one-half width at a
time results in very little delay
or inconvenience to the travelling
public, inamuch as the surfacing
can be driven over without the
danger of asphalt adhering to the
car as soon as the surface is com
pleted, and the one-way traffic
control seldom exceeds one mile
at a time.

miles per hour over a measured
two mile course in her Travels ire
biplane "Miss Cycol".
The, famous flier rircled the

150 Owners Come to Fac
tory, by Plane and Re
turn in Autos
The Hupp Motor Car Corpora
tion announces that wings and
wheels axe poth were, put to strik
ing service in an event resigned
both to signalize success of the
new Century Eight and to drama
tize the development of aviation
as a means of civilian transport.
This event, set for April 17 and
18, was called the Sky-Road Pa
rade, marked on the one hand the
most ambitious movement of civil
ians through the air ever attempt
ed on a single day and on tbe
other, the largest driveaway of
eight cylinder cars ever to leave a
Detroit factory.
The event was conceived when
the Gambill Motor Company, lac..
Hupmobile distributors in Chica
go, placed an order for $2,790,600
worth of HupmobiIe3, and it was
decided to make Chicago's fourth
annual driveaway from the fac
tory the biggest event of its kind
in Hupmobile history. The Hupp
Motor Car Corporation, which has
already engaged in an active cam
paign t improve safety in motor
traffic and actively promote good
roads, decided that this driveaway
should be made the means of dra
matizing the progress of a sister
transport Industry. For that rea
son, it was arranged that the own
ers oC the 150 new Century Eight
or their representatives should
make the trip from Chicago to De
troit by airplane in a great parade
through the sky on April 17th,
and return next day in a pa
rade over the highways with these
glittering Hupmobiles. Elaborate
plans are being made to make
both the exoQus from Chicago
"awing" and the return by'motor
eevnts of stirring interest accom
panied by appropriate ceremonies.
National Aeronautical Association,
and HenTy Hultman, secretary.
Nagle said the speed record would
be sent to the national offices of
his association as the official
world's mark for women fliers.
By virtue of her altest feat Mrs.
Thaden brings to the Pacific coast
all of the important world's rec
ords for women fliers.

record of the new Essex, which
was driven from San Francisco to
the Canadian boruer, south to
the Mexican line and back to San
Francisco, sealed in high gear
and wit hthe hood and radiator
sealed so that the engine could
not be touched nor oil or water
added. The distance was 3943
miles.
Not only did the Essex conquer
all the mountain grades on the
Pacific highway twice in high

passes on the coast route from
Los Angeles to San Francisco as
an added hazard.
