The real danger was from flying

ANNUAL ECONOMY RUNS
The Los Angeles-Yosemite ( Camp Curry) Econ
omy Run is probably the most famous event of its
kind in the motor world. Every year about the mid
dle of May, while the snow still lies deep in thft
mountain passes, from 15 to 20 cars start the stren
uous 360-mile run across the interior valleys and up
the difficult mountain roads into the Yosemite Val
ley. Every car is carefully groomed for victory, and
driven by an expert. ' ' 1 , i
And in all the six runs so far held, all cars
entered have used Red Crown gasoline ex
clusivefy. ,
This year the car making the run on the lowest
consumption of fuel, a Chevrolet driven by Dom
inick Basso, made the entire trip of 360 miles on 12
gallons of "Red Crown" (an average of 30 miles to
the gallon), and a pint of Zerolene.
The average gasoline consumption for all cars
participating was phenomenally low, This furnishes
striking evidence of the continued success of this
company in manufacturing a motor-car fuel of the
highest grade, justifying for six successive years the
unanimous choice of automotive engineers eager to
establish the best possible records for their cars.
This year, 18 of the 20 cars entered made the
entire distance on less than 20 gallons of "Red
Crown," although owing to recent rains the roads
were unusually difficult.
Red Crown gasoline is the most economical
motor fuel on the market today, because it con
tains the maximum number of heat units that can
be rapidly and uniformly vaporized in the modern
carburetor and go into complete combustion in
the cylinders, producing the maximum power the
engine was designed to develop.

garages and other dealers.
