Torque Figures
In Making Speed
Moat motcrlita have heard of
"torque" and bar preferred to
paaa It off aa one of tha motor
mynterlca, but better rnaulta
could bo had If tbey Rave thla
uhjnct nnre thounht.
Terhupa yon have noticed that
aometlmea your car .will fto paat
another machlno at a rant clip
while ether tlmea It la alow tn
gaining the addlMonal speed
ncceaaary to giving tha other fol
low your dust. Tha difference la
largely a matter of accelerating
at the engine speed when torque,
(pulling power) la greateat. You
Junt accidentally at'lcct or miss
the right speed.
Why not know at what speed
your engine actually delivers
maximum pull so that you can
do your fancy acceleration and
paaalag at that speed? It'a a
simple matter to discover thla
speed and knowing It helps to
avoid trying to make the engine
U thonimponalble.-
Grease May Cause
Too Heavy Grip
Tba idna that gutting too much
grease Into tho front wbrel bear
ings of cars wllh Internal brakes
will result In tho brakes falling
lo hold Is a dangerous one. Often
the grejrae causes the brakes to
grip so severely as to present spe
cial dangers.
Friction created by action .of
the brakes heat the excess
grease Inside the brake drums
and terms hard cakes. Cases havw
beon reported whera sudden ap
plication of the brakos under such
circumstances has rosuled In be
wheels locking. '
It Is quite a Job to remove the
grease from brakes and the dan
ber of locking the .wheels should
be evident. Besides, there Is no
neod for this sort of trouble.
Just ' see that an Inexperienced
mechanic dooan't put more grease
into the wheel bearings than they
are designed ftr-hold.
Car May Balk When
Motor Gets Hot
A machlno gun, hot from
steady firing, will ofteji stick
and Jam. And an automobile
engine, hot from heavy pulling,
will also tend toUlghten up and
run less freely, t Explosions In
the gun propel Ihe bullets, while
explosions in the engine, through
the medium of piston, shaft and
gears, propel the car. Both gun
and englno utilize the force of
rapidly burning fuel, and at the
aame time generate heat which
rnnat be dissipated It gun and en

ter cars will climb mountain
grades, croRs sun-acorchod deserts

Women Take
. Speed Honors
PHILADELPHIA. June IJ.
Tba contest board of tha Ameri
can Automobile assoclatloa on
Thursday announced completion
of a teat ot automobile speed and
endurance unique In motor car
, history, driven entirely by women
pilots. A fully equipped stock
'Htudebaker Commander roadster
traveled 600 mllea en tba Atlantic
City apeedway In lit consecutive
mlnutea at an average speed of
77 II mllea per hour.
None of tba women who drove
ihe car had mora than the aver
age driving experience and none
had aver before piloted a car on a
apeedway. This closely approach
es the blgheat SOO-mlle record
for fully equipped stock care,
7 1 mllea per hour, which la
also held by the Commander,
driven by men. The Commander's
performance In the handa of
women drivers eurpasses all other
previous records made by fully
equipped stock cars. Htudebaker
officials point to tbla latest per
formance ot the Commander aa
an Indication of the ease with
which the championship speed of i
Htudebaker cars can be obtained
and controlled and that the aver
age woman driver can secure this
speed aa easily aa a man.
The Conwnander completed the
600 mllea without repairs or
mechanical adjuatment of any
kind. Thla performance In the
handa of women pilots la all the
more notable in view ot the fact
that the car used had been driven
a total of more tban 61.000 miles.
At the completion of the run,
the car made five additional laps
at an average speed of 80.1 mllea
per hour.
The entire run waa made
Lander the sanction and observa
tion of the contest board 'of the

Urea and the treada as near tbe

Right Adjustment
Ends Car Bobing
In trying to break a car of tha
habit of bobbing up and down
most motorist, go the limit with
'tighter adjustment on tha front
: spring control devices, but usually
overlcok the rear one.
Yet this adjuatment of the rear
controls plays a part la the gen
eral behavior of be ear as It rides
the rough roads.- For maxlmrm
riding qualities It I necessary to
adjuat all four device la har
mony. Often a motorist will go to the
trouble and expense of switching
to some other make of spring
control device when the bobbing
of hi car I largely dee to hi
carrying too little air pressure la
