Playing The Motor Game
A UTAH WINTER SPORT I
By HARRY E. MacPHERSON
Humming the song of the vanishing
road,
Speedily curving away, away;
Bearing an eagerly happy load
That is the motoring game, all gay.
Spinning us far from care and strire
(Pardon the old stuff) This is the life!
WE have with us today, right here
in mountained Utah, the newest
of the nov, the latest of the late
winter motoring.
Reminiscenses are like very old
folks we all love them, but they
often become tiresome. Here, how
ever, we may reminisce for a moment
by going back only a few years.
Three years ago in the life of a youth
is a far time back. So in the automo
bile game, for that is a youth and a
rapidly growing one, particularly in
our state. Had you said "Winter mo
toring in Utah" to the ordinary motor
owner three years ago, or two years
ago or last year, for that matter he
would have laughed at you.
'What? Drive the machine in cold
weather for pleasure? Take it out on
the snowy roads? Not!"
Such is about what he would have
emphasized,. In those days folks put
their cars away for the winter just
as they did their Panama hats and
got them out again only when the
'roses started their blooming work and
melting snows began to make the
highways good and sloppy.
But things have been different this
last year. How many owners packed
their cars away for the cold months?
Mighty few of them. Look around
and see. Take yourself, for instance.
You are using your machine, aren't
you? Well; so is your next-door neigh
bor and the man across the avenue.
Bill Jones has a Ford and he just
can't get along without it and you
see the Bill Joneses out in that car
most every night, the curtains tightly
drawn and members of the family
fighting to get the privilege of sitting
alongside Dad in the warm front seat.
Montague Warrington, who owns a
big Pierce or Packard, Hudson or
National, Paige or Kissel Car, we will
say, cannot do without his machine
either. Perhaps he has one equipped
with a winter top or owns a perman
ent limousine or sedan or something
enclosed his car is in use and you
can see the Montague Warringtons
out in it every day or night.
California boasts of its summer
drives beneath spreading palms in the
months of December and January
but let us ponder. They have a rainy
season down there, haven't they?
Passing that, we wish to refer to the
fact that Utah is endowed with cli
mate as well as weather in the win
try months. We have our "unusual"
snows just as the coast has its "un
usual" rainy days but references to
the weather bureau records show this
state has abort the ideal climate in the
winter. It is warm enough so that
no one freezes his ears (ever see ear
muffs in Salt Lake City?) and cold
enough that we can have all the good,
hardy winter sports skiing, coasting,
skating, hockey, et al.
Now motoring in its"elf is a sport
both in summer and winter but most
important of all, it is a sport acces
sory. "What a zest the automobile has
given summer sports. Before the time
of motor cars, or the general use or
them, golf and week-end parties at
country places, and all the things
which go toward making" life worth
living in the summer, were limited by
the very fact it was so difficult to get
to and from these amusement places.
Even if not difficult, the old surrey
and trap method was time-taking. The
same was true of the winter time.
More so.
Now it is a matter of pushing a but
ton (not even cranking to worry
about) and we are off, warmly bundled
in our touring car or roadster or loll
ing lazily in the loafing comfort ofi an
enclosed model. Off we buzz in the
summer to the Country club. Off we
roll, wheels chained, these winter
days to the ice rink or the week-end
fun fest where dreary business men
can be forgot in the strains of a fox
trot or the blaze of a grate woqd fire
the warmth of the latter for our
outards; maybe something warm for
the innards.
The car outside beblanketed and
with alcohol in the radiator as an anti-freezing
solution there is no worry
about getting back. If a tire bursts
or there's engine trouble, we can be
towed in by a service machine.
With the super-modern In motoring
motoring as a winter sport has
come new styles in machines. Wo
have the closed cars and the winter
body models, the sport cars and
chummy roadsters, the clover leaves,
etc One can have a classy-line road
ster these days without having to
crowti four or five into a space meant
to hold two or two and a half at
most.
The chummy roadster is an evolu
tion. First the oldest type was
evolved into a three-passenger with
an ugly little rumble seat. That was
better than a two-passenger, but the
inventor forgot the old adage of
"two's company." So did the man
who followed with the three-passenger
clover-leaf, though that was a nifty
thing as far as good looks were con
cerned. But motorists should rise as
one and drink the health of the goof
who figured out the "chummy" the
one with the snug seat behind for
two, reached through a space) between
the two front seats.
In re those, the girls sometimes
complain that en route to dances
their party dresses, beg pardon
gowns get crumpled a bit but the
real devotees of the "chummy" prefer
them to commodious touring cars.
The new models in roadsters will
