In Ball Scandal
Turfman, Said to Have Lost
$70,000 on Series Last
Year, Questioned ; Loss of

Hope to Reach Abe Attell ?
Head of Detective Agency
Expected to Furnish Evi?
dence Against Gamblers
Tho two wealthy New Yorkers who
lest large sums of money in the 1919
world scries through the operations of
the clique of gamblers responsible for
the fixing of the games wore said
yesterday to be Edward E. Smathers,
broker and turfman, and George M.
Cohan, the theatrical man.
Smathers is said to have lost $70,000
betting on the White Sox last year.
Cohan's loss is reported at $15,000. In
each instance the tips to bet on the
White ?iox are said to have been given
to these men by associates of tho
gambler whom District Attorney Swann
believes to have been the master mind
of the conspiracy.
Smathers appeared before District
Attorney Charles R. Weeks of Nassau
County yesterday, by whom ho was in?
tern-gated in connection with the
gambling inquiry in progress there.
District Attorney Swann has been
trying to persuade both Smathers and j
Cohan to tell him all they know of
tho gamblers by whom they were taken
in and the circumstances under which |
they lest their money. They were un?
willing, however, to be questioned for
the present, as they did not want,
to be publicly known as victims of the
alleged fixers.
Attell Still Eludes Subpoena
While Abe Attell, the former feather?
weight champion, continues to be elu
sive to process servers of the District
Attorney's office who are searching for
him with grand jury subpoenas, ho ran ;
still bo found in his usual haunts
around Times Square. The authorities,
it was said, have nt last located his
living .quarters and there were prom?
ises issuing from tho District Attor?
ney's office that Attell, with two other
gamblers Bought in connection with
the baseball fixing inquiry, undoubted?
ly would be served with subp?nas ano
their appearance before the grand jury
ured t i-day.
Whatever facts Assistant District At?
torney Smith will be able to marshal
? ? the gamblers suspected of be?
ing nt the bottom of tho scandal they j
will be strengthened considerably by
the action of Val O'Far re 11, head of a
detective agency at Fifth Avenue and
Forty-second Street. O'Farrell had fur?
nished Moclay Iioyne, State's Attorney
of Cook County, Illinois, with impor?
tant documents and affidavits whereby
Hoyne declared he would be able to ob?
tain convictions of thoso involved in
tho baseball scandal.
No Public Offldial Involved
At O'Farrcll's office it was said that
tl-i?^ detective, who was present at the
Hotel Aslor when Arnold Rothstein is
said to have turned down the living
proposal, would be willing to turn over
similar documents and oth ir important
information to tho local prosecuting at?
torney. When thin was brought to \ -
sistnnt District Attorney Smith's "''? n
tion he immediately arrange I a < . r- \
j encc with O'Farrell for to-day.
Rumors that a publi? officials and an !
I oil man wen-: being sougi : as confed- j
j erates in tho fixing plot were sniked ?
by Mr. Smilh yoacerday. "There is no .
i public official or oil man involved in ;
this matter, so far as 1 have been able !
to learn," he said, "and I haven't heard !
of any such men being mentioned in
connection with the affair. This whole I
thing appears to have been a gamblers' !
pool, pure and simple. Some' have it j
that this pool totaled close to $500,000." !

he said.

The Right Angle in Advertising
The 10-Year Car
WE have always made large cars de?
signed for maximum speed, great
power, and all the roominess that goes
with a long wheelbase. The ultimate de?
velopment has been the Twin Six, which
has firmly established itself in the regard of
the public, and which we have been pro?
ducing and marketing for a number of years.
Packard reputation for motor cars rests
solidly upon the Twin Six, and it always will!
Bat there has for years been an insistent
demand for another car to supplement the
Twin Six: a car of shorter wheelbase and
lighter weight, a general-purpose car of
great maneuverability in traffic, one that
would park in a short space at the curb.
And the demand was that this light car
should give unusual gasoline mileage and
tire mileage, and finally, that it should be
designed and built Packard-wise, and
therefore be able to keep out of the repair
shop longest and to require least attention
from its owner or driver.
We thought it over and studied the
problem for a good many years, during
all of which we were accumulating ex?
perience in the design and production of
the highest possible grade of car.
We have at various times during the
past ten years designed a lightweight com?
panion to our larger cars, but were never
entirely satisfied with our efforts.
Then the war broke out in 1914, and
believing that America would inevitably
become involved, we turned our attention
to designing airplane engines, and from
then to the close of the war, had a thor?
oughly successful experience in designing
and manufacturing airplane motors,which,
as you know, must give the greatest power
with the least possible weight.
We learned a great deal through this
experience that was applicable to the
automobile, and towards the close of
the war we felt we were finally well
equipped by experience to design the
light-weight car.
Meanwhile, with a constantly growing
talk of congestion in traffic, and increasing
cost of gasoline, tires and other supplies,
the demand for the light car became more
and more insistent.
* * *
We have taken several years for the
development and perfection of this new
Packard, but we believe we have accom?
plished what we set out to do, and take
now a pride in announcing that the
Packard Single Six will soon be ready. It
will be manufactured alongside the Twin
Six and by the same matured and expe?
rienced organization.
The new car is of five-passenger capac?
ity and will be offered in Touring,
Runabout, Coup? and Brougham or Sedan.
The motor has six cylinders, 3^?B bore
by 4/4B stroke. It is therefore of medium
size, and despite its light weight is very
sturdily built.
It is equipped with the Fuelizer.
The Single Six motor is new through?
out, but it is not experimental.
It includes every principle of gooc\
engineering that our experience has shown
to make for maximum power, coupled
with silent operation and freedom from
annoying troubles. We have failed of
our intentions if we have not produced
a motor that will run longer and require
less attention than any other.
Our chassis design is very simple and
clean. Its light weight, together with its
unusually efficient motor, result in a very
economical car.
As an instance of this, in our test driving
in cross-country runs, we have made over
twenty miles to the gallon of gasoline. Of
course, in congested city driving, the mile?
age will not be so high.
Average tire mileage can be expected to
exceed 15,000 miles. In our extensive
experimental driving of this new car, we
have had some tires in fair condition at
the end of 25,000 miles.
It is an agreeable car to operate, having
the easiest possible steering, the lightest
clutch action, the shortest turning radius,
and, we believe, all those qualities that
you would like to have in a light-weight
car for general purposes.
The workmanship and finish are Packard
throughout.
The greatest obtainable luxury, the
maximum power, and the ultimate in
road-ability, must always be found in the
large car. That is the field in which the
Packard Twin Six will always be dominant.
In this new car we have not attempted
to compete in that field, but rather to
produce an active, easily-operated, high
gradeydight car, with all the elements of
efficiency, economy of operation and,
above all, long Ufe.
There are Packard cars today, designed
years ago, that are nearing the half-million
mark in miles traveled.
The new Single Six is also, we confi?
dently believe, a TEN-YEAR CAR.
The price of the Touring Car is $3640
at Detroit.
