Demonstration Here
A crowd of considerable propor

expecting a liberal quota of thrills
when a tire of a speeding csr was
blown out found all Its thrills In
the anticipation.
Several times the big car came
roaring down the road to have Its
tlrer ripped to shreds by railroad
spikes fixed In a heavy steel plat
or blown out by meaus of dynamite
caps detonated from within the car.
Shivers of dread changed to excla
mations of relieved surprise as each
time the driver brought the car to
a smooth, safe stop, without weav
ing, lurching, or leaving the road,
even though speeds of approximately
70 miles an hour were attained at
the moment of the blowout.
The test was conducted under the !
auspices of C. 0. Furnas, with the
assistance of police authorities.
The reason why what looked like
a suicidal performance proved mere
ly Interesting, as explained by Mr
Furnas, Is that when casing and
regular tube are punctured, the Llfe-
Guard, a two-play reserve tire, plac
ed within the regular tube, supports
tne car until it can be brought to a
stop. No special driving skill or
strength are required. The LlfcGuard
is Joined to the tube at the rim
base and they are Inflated through
the same valve. When the air Is
gone from the regular tube, a tiny
vent allows It to escape slowly from
the LifeOuard, making the worst
blowout no. more serious than a
slow leak.
Mr. Furnas regards ths LifeOuard
as the fourth milestone on ths path
to complete motoring safety, ths
other three being four-wheel brakes.
a U -steel bodies and safety glass.
He has on file scores of testi
monial letters from users of Life
Ouard s giving them credit for pre
venting serious and perhaps fatal
accidents when tires have been sud
denly deflated at high speed. Many
of these letters say that their writers
would no longer consider driving
even a single mile without Life
Ouard equipment.
