New Series Light 6 Studebaker a* Hit Many unexpected features, some of them exclusivo.fcaro found in the new series 21 Studebaker light six, dis tributed by Ralph Mairs, and furnish the reasons for the tremendous popu larity of this car at the automobile show. Built in three body styles, namely touring car, landau-roadster and sedan, the new light six is widely proclaimed by experts as meeting the long-existing demand for a comfort able, durable and economical light weight, six-cylinder car.. A hurried inspection gives only a slight conception of how much class this new car really has. It looks a great deal longer than it is because of tile rakish cut of the body. The higti, narrow radiator is particularly pleas ing. and the lines of the lustrous black enameled body are low and graceful viewed from any angle. Even the windshield is tipped at a clever angle, and the fenders have a neat “hug ' which' is convincing. Of 112-inch wheelbase, the new Studebaker has a 40-horsepower motor, and the car weighs complete hut 2500 pounds. Cord tires are ' standard equipment. Ho perfectly Is the new car balanced that the chassis can be either halved or quartered, and each section will show virtually the same weight. Because of this even dis tribution of weight the new light six in severe tests preceding its announce ment proved its ability to hold the road at speeds under conditions where heavier, less,* scientifically balanced cars showed a tendency toward side sway. Other outstanding and exceptional f( atufes are numerous. The motor of 2 .'.inch, bore by 4$-inch stroke, with aluminum detachable head, is noted nut only for its accessibility and clean cut design, but also for its truly won derful economy.. This economy is se cured by means of a unique feature i whicit converts every drop of gasoline ■into power with no possibility of ' waste, and the performance and gen \ oral » Hiciency of the new car are in | consequence remarkable. A feature for which a patent has been granted, the internal hot spot sur rounding each spark plug, obtains bet ter vaporization u hotter fuel, greater ee< noiiiy and better combustion. All these r, suit from the met that the in coming gas. alter being thoroughly vapoiii.od ! y ] assing over tin* hot com bustion chamber, hits this unjacketed hot spot, ti e instant it gels through tile inlet valve. This hot spot is con trolled and never heconfep excessively hot. part of the intake manifold is in contact with the water manifold, and tip- fit a of coltl water is faster as tlie speed of the motor is increased, so that (lie water remains at a constant temp future. inclined valve action, round only in or.e Imported car and in one of the highest-priced American motors, is a feature of the series 21 Studebaker light six. With this new type of valve action, where the valves art- inclined at an angle of 20 degrees and with the new intake manifold design, the gases in tlie combustion chamber are not de flected in any way. There is virtually a straight line passage into the com bustion chamber, providing maximum economy, perfect combustion, and pre cluding tlie possibility of any unvapor ized gasoline lying on top of or seeping dow n past tlie pistonsa- Adv.

Committee Healings JUDICIARY If the women of Maine are to have the right of Suffrage they want to assume the duties attached thereto and especially that relating to jury service. That was the concensus of opinion expressed by the representa tives of the women -of the State be fore the committee on Judiciary Wednesday afternoon when they ap peared to oppose the act exempting women from jury duty, upon which hearing was held. No one appeared as a proponent for the measure and it was opposed by Mrs. Florence Brooks Whitehouse of Portland, rep resenting the National Woman's Party, Miss Mabel Connor of Augus ta, representing the Maine League of Women Voters; Mrs. Frank E. Wood ruff of Brunswick, representing the W. C. T. U.; Judge John P. Deering of Biddeford and Representative William O. Rogers of Rockland. The Regulation of Boxing The hearing on the proposed law for the regulation of boxing and its promotion in Maine drew a large number of people, mostly proponents, to the State House Wednesday after noon ,v>d the room of the judiciary committee was well filled when this measure was called by Chairman Gil lin. Attorney John D. Clifford of Lewiston, father of the measure, con ducted the hearing for the pro ponents and the only objection was by Mrs. William R. rattangall and Mrs. O. B. Frost, both of Augusta, both of wThom objected to the provi sion for a decision to be rendered at boxing bouts. Among those who appeared in favor of the bill were Trainer Jack Magee of Bowdoin college, Sporting Editor Stanley Atwood of the Lewis ton and former Assistant Attorney General Franklin Fisher of Lewiston. LEGAL AFFAIRS Rep. Blaine Viles of Augusta ex plained the workings of his plan to amend the arrangement of the names of candidates on the primary ballots to the committee on legal affairs on Wednesday afternoon. He claimed that 'Under the present ar rangement the names of those be ginning with letters at the first of the alphabet had an advantage. He claimed that since the primary elec i tion system of nominations has been I in force tho Legislature has shown a greater preponderance of names at the head of the alphabet. I Col. E. C. Milliken, chairman of the Board of Assessors of Portland, spoke in favor of the bill allowing cities to appoint extra assistant as sessors whenever necessary. The cost would be no more and it would facilitate the work. Stato Auditor Wardwell spoke in favor of an act to make appropria tions for State construction avail able until completion of the contract. Mr. Chamberlain of Lebanon and Senator Spencer of York spoke in favor of an act making possible State-aid for the publication of an cient vital .statistics. There was no , opposition to any of the measures. SEA AND SHORE FISHERIES Harry C. Wilbur of Portland, one of the members of the Commission on Sea and Shore Fisheries, appeared before the committee on sea and shore fisheries Wednesday afternoon in behalf of the bill to amend the Revised Statutes giving the aggrieved party the right to appeal from the decision of the municipal officers in granting rihts for wharves and fish weirs. INLAND FISHERIES AND GAME A. L. Miles of Rockland, represent ing- the packers of Washington and j Knox* counties, spoke for the bill ; which would permit the kililng of 1 gluls, before the committee on inland fisheries and game, Wednesday af- ! ternoop. He said the blueberry in- ! dustry is growing in those counties ; and the gulls are doing great damage. 1 Rep. G. A. Phillips of Bar Harbor said the same for blueberries and huckleberries in Hancock county. F. j C. Black of Rockland also favored it. ! It was then brought out that the ; gulls are protected by the Federal law and the proper thing to do is to go to the commissioner of inland fisheries anti game, who in co-opera tion with the Federal authority may bring relief. Rep. Phillips of Bar Harbor ap peared for the measure to permit Sunday hunting in Kennebec, Han cock and Washington counties, saying that hundreds of boys ad young men were in danger of the "dens,” on Sun day, which might be prevented by al lowing them in the woods with their guns and fishrods. Frank Condon of Augusta asked that better protection be given the ! white perch in East and Nort ponds of the Belgrade lakes. He said the j limit was now 25 fish per person, but j that parties or whole families would ' fish all day and carry home more than was needed or used by any family. The summer people were numerous in that section and the fishing should be protected. He would limit the j catch to 40 fish per day for one boat | or party. Rep. Hunton of Oakland said he had fished those lakes for years and didn’t remember any slaughter such i as described. He thought that en- i forcement of the present laws would afford more protection than coming asking for more laws, i Rep. Wadsworth said the bill ask ing the screening of Wilson pond in Winthrop was drawn by former Fish i and Game Commissioner L. T. Carle ton and called on Arthur Briggs of Winthrop, who said the pond had I keen stocked with game fish. A con I crete dam on the stream had a screened penstock but also had plug gates that when opened let the fish i through. He thought that one-half of te amount asked t$r>00) could be lo- 1 cally raised. Ray Riley of the Tap pon Stock Farm in Monmouth, said that trout could not be caught above the dame but wer caught below and the screen would remedy the trouble ' ICEBORO Mrs^ Mallory Wakom of Bath and Mrs. George Yeaton of Richmond vis ited their father, Nathaniel Farley one day last week.
