congratulations were extended and a
clever caricature of "the bride and
groom." expressing good wishes of
Medford folk, presented by Thoe.

Canadian maple leaf in hand for good
luck.

of delphiniums, arranged by Miss

ther emphasize the realization that

bride and groom.

mahogany serving table, where pyra
mid effect was achieved through in

glow to the accompanying sprays of
flowers.

Start of the Richfield competitive mileage test run held In Southern Oregon Saturday. Left, Vol J. Fischer,
proprietor of Sixth Street Super-Service Station In Medford. Center, Herb Grey, advertising manager of ine
Mall Tribune who was observer and Judge of the run. Right, R, C. Doty, Klchrield distributor for this section.
Dewey C. Rohloff, automotive engineer of the Richfield Oil company and driver of the car. Is not shown in
this photo. The car used was a Plymouth coupe, furnished by Armstrong Motors, Inc., of this city.
"Three point one," sounds almost
like the limit congress has set for
legalized beer but, in this Instance,
It measures exactly the degree of
superiority of Richfield "Hi-Octane"
gasoline over another nationally
known brand in a novel mileage test
conducted in Medford last Saturday.
One gallon of Hl-Octane powered a
1933 model Plymouth coupe over a
set course 'of 22.6 miles, exactly 3.1
more miles than the same car cov
ered on one gallon of another brand
of first-structure gasoline with Dewey
C. Rohloff, automotive engineer of
the Richfield Oil company, at the
wheel and Herb Grey of The Mall
Tribune as observer.
The remarkable run was conducted
on exactly the same basis as similar
tests now being held throughout the
Pacific coast by the Richfield Oil com
pany to back up this company's posi
tive guarantee of "at least one more
mile per gallon." This guarantee was
originally based on the findings of
the Smith-Emery company of Los
Angeles, a member of the largest
chain of testing laboratories In the
world, in which Hi-Octane . was
claimed to be 13 per cent better than
the average of thirty-one different
brands of gasoline.
A Plymouth coupe, furnished by
Armstrong Motors, Inc., was selected
for the competitive mileage test run
and a flexible tube from the one-gallon
gasoline container was attached
to the carburetor. In order that the
test might fairly show the mileage
that may be expected from Hl-Octane
and Its competitor, a course was
meeting-place

selected that would include city traf
fic, surfaced highway, smooth coun
try roads and rough, "washboard"
macadam roadways. Numerous stops
were necessary In observance of traf
fic signals and in approaching arte
rial highways, a fact which makes
Rlchfleld's record of 22.8 mites with
one gallon of Hl-Octane an outstand
ing one.
The test run with Hl-Octane and
another brand of gasoline were
started from the Sixth Street Super
Service Station In Medford with Val
J. Fischer, proprietor of this station
and R. C. Doty, Richfield distributor
for -southern Oregon, viewing the
starts. The smart little Plymouth
coupe was driven by Dewey Rohloff
east on Sixth street to Riverside ave
nue, the section of the Pacific High
way which passes through Medford.
On Medford's main street considerable
traffic was experienced In both runs
until after the beautiful West Main
street residential district of Medford
was reached.
On the trip west from Medford to
Jacksonville, the test car passed
through a rich farming country, dot
ted with well-kept orchards. Scores
of beautiful homes line this attractive
stretch of highway.
Jacksonville, rich In the romance
of early mining days with many of
the old buildings and landmarks still
standing,, la a popular mecca for
Southern Oregon pleasure' seekers.
With this In mind, the Richfield of
ficials included this lovely historic
village In the route for the Plymouth.
After leaving Jacksonville, the fleet
for smart
$200
little car skirted the beautiful Rogue
River valley over the "Millionaire
Drive." This road received its unique
nickname from the many palatial
residences nestled In the foothills
west of Medford. Beall Lane, named
after a pioneer southern Oregon fam
ily, was used by the driver of the
test Plymouth as a means of reach
ing the fine new Pacific Highway
unit which now connects Medford and
Central Point.
Since a trip through the Rogue
River valley Is not complete without
a visit to Central Point, Dewey Roh
loff steered the Plymouth coupe to
that small city where the old section
of the Pacific Highway was used for
the return trip to Medford. When the
Midway road was reached, however
the test route called for a loop back
to the Medford airport.
This municipal airport Is considered
one of the finest on the coast. Here
speedy little army and navy pursuit
planes, mall planes and giant trl-
motor transports lend an atmosphere
of ultra-modern activity to the peace
ful Rogue River valley. .
After looping past the Richfield

airport station, equipped to service
planes with Richfield gasoline and i
Rlchlube. motor oils, the Plymouth
coupe headed its radiator for Med lord
over another, less used route, which
called for driving In loose gravel and
on rough, worn macadam. This road
meets the Pacific Highway and
brought the test car back to the Sixth
Street Super-Service station.
Approximately the same ratio of
time was used for each run and the
same general speed in both tests as
sured a fair comparison of the two
gasolines. Hl-Octane's mileage record
was 22 6 miles on the single gallon,
with 19 5 miles the total made by the
other brand of gasoline chosen for
the competitive teat.
The remarkable run, carefully
checked and observed throughout,
gave the same results In actual driv
ing that Smith-Emery company's test
tubes have shown In past, exhaustive
tests. Competitive runs, similar to
the one conducted last Saturday by
the Richfield OH company under the
observation of The Mall Tribune, will
be made In other Oregon c It ten by
Dewey Rohloff. Results of the Med
ford test will be announced In the
near future by Sam Haynes, the Rich
field Reporter, over NBC, according to
R. C. Doty, local Richfield distributor.
