At any rate you will find a friendly co-operation at Taggar a willingness to go more than half way, that assures a fai every time. So whether it's a new car or whether it's a used car, price c ered, you are money ahead if you will see Frank P. Taggart —Chevrolet Distributor— CAR GOES 5500 MILES, NO STOP Running continuously for seven days for a distance of 5504 miles at an average speed of 33 9-16 miles per hour, a Studebaker Light Six has just completed another remarkable performance record at Syracuse, N.Y. The run was undertaken by Gere and Willis, Studebaker dealers in Syracuse, to demonstrate the merit of Studebaker Light Six cars for performance, endurance and economy. In seven days' time, the Light-Six delivered more than the average mileage for a whole year and did it so decisively that it is causing wide comment among motorists in that section of the country. Outstanding features of the long run were the fact that the highest average for any one hour during the run was 48 miles; the highest speed, 67 miles an hour; the use of but three gallons of water for the whole run and the further fact that no air was put into the tires during the entire seven days. The best gasoline average for a six-hour period during the trip was 23 miles, and for the whole trip, the average was 18.1 miles to the gallon. Thirteen men took turn-about driving and at all times an observer the Syracuse "Post-Standard" accompanied the car. Exclusive mechanical features of the light six motor account largely for this remarkable record in the opinion of Harry D. Riley, Studebaker dealer. "For example," said he, "Studebaker machines all surfaces of the crankshaft and connecting rods of the Light-Six engine instead of the usual practice of machining only the bearing surfaces. This insures exact balance and uniform weight of reel-procaching parts." "Vibration is, therefore, practically eliminated, a feature that is responsible in part, for unusual records of performance seen as the run at Syracuse." NEW A.C.S.C. OFFICES OPENED Motorists in Huntington Park and vicinity are congratulating themselves over the opening of a new branch office of the Auto Club of So. Calif., at 412 South Pacific blvd. There are more than 1000 members of the organization in this district whom the new office will serve. This is the 29th branch office of the club in Southern California. New quarters are being occupied by the Auto club in Pasadena and Riverside branches. In Pasadena the former quarters in the Maryland hotel have been deserted for the new Spanish type building at 332 W. Colorado st., corner of Terrace drive. This is one of the largest of the 29 branches of the Auto club, the office force including 17 persons. More than 6000 members are in this territory. In Riverside a new building at 1010 W. Seventh street has been completed for the club activities. Four employees will serve more than 2000 members in this district. SHOP EARLY— NEW CAR, FLINT, IS SHOWN IN L. A. W. C. Durant's much talked-of Flint Six, which was named by the master builder after his automobile business birthplace, has reached California and was the one new make to be put on view at the Los Angeles show. As such, but really more on account of the fame of its maker, who has concentrated on its design and construction, the best engineering talent of the Durant group with the idea of producing a quality car at a quantity price, it has been easily the most visited automobile at the show. Durant folks and many others refer to it as the "Baby Locomobile"; for it closely follows the "Baby Locomobile" that was so much talked of at the time its manufacture was first broached by the Locomobile Co. of America, which is now its builder at Elizabeth, N. J., for the eastern trade, the new Flint factory at THERE'S ANALYSIS OF YOUR EXIDER The Exide battery analyzed: Exide jars are made of a tough semi-flexible rubber compound and go through hard service without a surprising freedom from breakage. They relieve the motor from the annoyance and expense of cracked and broken jars. Exide separators are made of a selected quality of dural wood—nature's insulator. The wood permits a free flow of electrolyte from plate to plate, at same time eliminates the passage of active material through the and consequent clogging. The wood is subject to a patent "treating" process which eliminates elements injurious to the battery. Exide separators are designed by their toughness and long life. The Exide cover effectively seals the cell. The patented locking device on the filler plug makes it easy to remove and place the plugs when adding water lost by evaporation. Exide intercell connectors extra heavy and are designed to carry the high discharge rate countered in starting your engine under unfavorable conditions which is several times the rated discharge required in ordinary starting. They are welded to terminal posts in a perfect chanical and electrical connection. The Exide service station handles them. "For example," said he, "Studebaker machines all surfaces of the crankshaft and connecting rods of the Light-Six engine instead of the usual practice of machining only the bearing surfaces. This insures exact balance and uniform weight of reel-procating parts. Vibration is, therefore, practically eliminated, a feature that is responsible in part, for unusual records of performance such as the run at Syracuse." TIRE GUARANTEED FOR 15,000 MILES Taking on the Keaton non-skid tire, West Bros. exclusive local distributors declare that with this tire chains are unnecessary. A guarantee of 10,000 miles as non-skid and 15,000 miles' service is given. A 15,000-mile guarantee is something decidedly new, and the trade is watching this latest invader with interest. The manufacturers claim that there is considerably more rubber on the tread, which does not chip or cut like that of many other tires, and purchasers have given testimonials galore of the way they have been saved from collision or other accident by the sure grip of the Keaton on ground or pavement. The new Flint is a six-cylinder car with a 120-inch wheel base, and is to retail in California for $1595. The completeness of its equipment is one of its chief features. It embraces a permanent top, bumper, tire tube and cover, motometer bar cap, motometer and running board kick plates. Its engine, whose cylinders are 3-8x5, is large for its price has an A. L. A. M. rating of 27.3 horsepower. Its developed horsepower is 67 at 2450 and 70 at 2500 revolutions. The distribution of the Flint Six on the Pacific coast is in charge of the Durant-Steves Motor Co., which displayed the new car to Southern California dealers before the show. As a result the company's November allotment was sold in three days. The Flint Six fairly eats up stiff grades. In a hill-climbing tryout in Los Angeles it carried nine people up the Grand street hill in high gear, starting at 20 miles an hour. In another climb up the Olive street Elks' club grade its pace never exceeded 12 miles per hour.

Fengler will be remembered as the famous mechanician to Harry Hartz.

Center St. Cliff Durant is to have a new car in the coming race. The new racer has many special features incorporated in its construction by Harry A. Miller, the famous engineer who has been associated with Durant in the building of racing cars for the past three years. Durant’s new mount is claimed to be the most expensive racing creation ever built. The cost almost reached the $20,000 mark, while the average racing car costs approximately $10,000. As Murphy must win the coming race to take the championship, he is out for first place or nothing. Eddie Hearne, on the other hand, has to spish in third place only to retain the lead he now has, so he will not be out to take any chances on the title. There are so many drivers who have suffered so much misfortune during the season that nothing but first place will do for them, so it is certain that Murphy will have a lot of competition.
