AUTOMOBILE NEWS=LOCAL AND FOREIGN
1908 MODEL
IS RECEIVED
POPE.TOLEDO PLEASES AUTO
ENTHUSIASTS
VARIES IN MANY DETAILS FROM
1907 MODEL
Large Amount of Brass Work Done
Away with and Covered with
Leather In Many
Places
The 1908 straight line body Pope-
Toledo was received by the White garage
in this city yesterday. Motor enthusiasts
have been waiting for several weeks to
see the car.
While following the lines of the 1907
Pope-Toledo, which was a new car from
the ground up it varies in many details.
The most remarkable thing about the
1908 Pope-Toledo Is the doing away with
the usual amount of brass finished work.
European makers of automobiles have
already begun this improvement, as lots
of brass work looka loud and quickly
tarnishes, giving the car an untidy ap
pearance.
The usual bright parts on the Pope-
Toledo are covered with leatner in mauj
places and thu rest with blnck enamel
or the metal is oxidized, as haw long been
the custom in high grade carriuges and
vehicles. The big radiator has no bright
parts on it to reflect the sun's rays and
bother the driver by the brilliant reflec
tion, as all motorists know from ex
perience.
The fifty horse power engine has been
made almost perfect; in fact the experi
ence of every Pope-Toledo agent of last
year and of the factory experts have
been combined to Improve wherever lm^
provement wr.s possible.
The enlargement of the tonneau is very
noticeable and also the convenient folding
Individual seats. A great many of the
changes made in this beautiful car have
already been explained in these columns,
but all should see the 1908 Pope-Toledo,
as it is an interesting automobile show
in Itself.
The new car will go into instant use
under the care of Billy Reuss, demon
strating its superiority In the hands of
this fearless driver who last Wednesday
broke the road record between this city
and Santa Barbara and also the record
from San Francisco to Los Angeles with
a Pope-Hartford car.
IMPORTERS WILL HAVE
AUTOMOBILE EXHIBITION
French Machines to Occupy Greatest
Amount of Floor Space, Though
Other Makes Will Be Well
Represented
Although two shows of American made
cars have been held In New York there
ia no diminution of the general interest
shown by the importers' automobllo
salon, which exhibition will take place in
Madison Square garden from December L'B
to January 4. Although nearly a month
away, there is a great deal of activity In
the search for good spaco both in the do
partment of cars and in the accessories
and parts annexes, and many inquiries
are being received daily at the head
quarters of the salon In the Bryant Park
building in New York.
C. R. Mabley, the manager, says that
of the space taken (which embraces prac
tically all of the available spaco on tho
ground floor) the importers of French ma
chines have taken the largest amount ot
Bquare feet; the importers of Italian made
cars the next largest amount, while the
man handling German, Swedish and Eng
lish machines are about evenly divided in
the contest for the third largest allot
ment.
The salon this year will bo an eye
opener for many visitors who have here
tofore failed to realize the extent of
foreign business, on account of the fact
that importers were formerly placed In
out-of-the-way corners of the building,
and for visitors to see thorn was purely a
labor of love.
For this reason the importers are de
lighted that they have at last a chance
to show to the American public how ex
tensive and far-reaching is the business of
dealing in the best foreign makes, Irre
spective of all questions as to the su
periority or Inferiority of the cars as
compared with American products.
SOLVES QUESTION OF
DAY AND NIGHT CONTEST
Suggestion Made That Winners of
Twenty-four Hour Races Get
Together at Ormond After
Regular Meet
Emanuel Cedrino, driver of the Fiat
Cyclone, has seemingly solved tho prob
lem of the contest . for the twenty-four
hour championship between the winners
of the many twenty-four hour races held
during the past year. Mr. Cedrino sug
gests that the various winners of the
various twenty-four hour races get to
gether at Ormond the week following the
regular Ormond meet and drive a twenty
four hour race to be run four hours each
day for one week. He suggests that the
various cars competing be taken in at
night aud locked up by an officer, so
that they may not be worked upon only
during the actual running.
The suggestion for such a contest has
been made to W, J. Morgan, who has
taken the matter up with the Florida
East Coast railroad, and it is not Im
probable that the Fiat winner of the
twenty-four hour race at Morris Park;
the Thomas, winner of the twenty-four
hour event at Brighton Beach; the Re
nault, winner of the first twenty-four hour
race at Morris Park; the Lozier, winner
of the twenty-four hour race at Phila
delphia; the Jackson, winner of a similar
event In St. Louis, and other winners
of the different twenty-four hour contests
may be invited to take part in a race
on Ormond beach the first week in April.
McCORMICK WANTB TO PLAY
Harry McCormick, who played with the
Giants in 1903, has notified the Philadel
phia club that he desires to get back into
good society again and is willing to per
form with the Phillies next season if there
Is an inducement to do so. McCormiuk
figured in the New York end of the Seb
rlng-Doulin-McCormick deal by which the
Reds secured Sebring and New York Don
ln. Plttsburg subsequently sold MoCor
mlck to Philadelphia.
NONE of the 1908 machines received up to date eclipses
the Studebaker landaulet that arrived this week. It
shows the evidence of the equality of the American
product with the best that is produced in the foreign field.
It has the thirty-horse power engine, which has proven
itsßlt of sufficient power for town purposes. The body,
however, is what, attracts the eye of the average obsarvor,
and there is. no point on tho machine that will not bear the
closest scrutiny. As In the regular landaulet type the rear
part of the top lot 3 down giving it an advantage over tl'o
regular limousine type, which is a closed car all of the
time
The up to dateness of the car is shown in many points
such as an electric annunciator, speaking tube connecting
With the chauffeur's seat, dome electric light, clock and
compartment for toilet articles.

for the average motorist to follow a coun
try road, especially those that have been

ENCLOSED MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION OF THE 1908 AUTOCAR
AN EXCEPTIONALLY good feature has been used on the Autocar in the l»t)»
model that will appeal strongly to the driver who must uso his car in ail
sorts of weather. The entire motor, transmission and fly wheel are encased In
one envelope that makes the mechanism safe from dust and water. The car can
travel through water up to the depth of the carburettor without causing any
trouble whatever. Doctors have taken to the runabout Btyle In a great degree,
the manufacturers claiming that no other car is so popular with tho medical
fraternity on account of the cleanness of the car and the small liability of dam
age'from inclement weather.
Like most of the well established factories the Autocar did not make any
radical changes in the machine this year, and it is not at all probable that there
will be much difference in any of the ,1909 models. The buying public is getting
over the speed mania and is fast coming to realize that the cur of moderate
power is plenty fast enough and does not deplete tho pocketbook as does the
high powered, many cylinder car that is rrally only in Its place on the track.
ORGANIZATIONS JOIN TO
PROMOTE AUTO RACES
Future of Ormond. Daytona Events Is
Assured— Big Meet Will Be
Held During
March
The question as to the management and
the future of the forthcoming famous
Ormond-Daytona beach races has been
decided.
The Automobile club of America direc
tors voted to join hands with the Florida
East Coast Automobile association in
tha promotion and management of the
sixth annuul meet, which has been sched
uled to take place in March.
The past live tournaments on the fast
course in Florida have been conducted
by the Florida East Coast Automobile
association, which built a club house on
the beach at Daytona and which meeta
have been productive of recording world's
records from one to two hundred miles.
Wishing to make the tournament more
international in character than formerly
the F. B. C. A. A. desired to secure the
co-operation of some powerful motoring
body and thiough negotiations by Its New
York representative, W. J. Morgan, a
proposition was mude to the Automobile
club of America, the pioneer automobile
organization of this country, which con
ducted the lirst automobile shows, en
durance runs and race meets ever given
in America.
As a promoting organization the Auto
mobile club of America Is Internationally
known and Is the only organization that
receives the full recognition of the im
perial clubs of Great Britain, Germany,
Italy and the automobile clubs of France.
The arrangements for the meet in
March will be entirely in the hands of
the contest committee of tho Automobllo
club of America, of which Robert Leo
Morrell is chairman. The program of
events will be made up by this com
mittee and will include long and short
distance races, on^ for gentlemen ama
teur drivers, one for strictly racing cars
and one for stock cars.
The mile race for the Sir Thomas
Dewar trophy will take place as usual.
In order to prevent the entry of whnt
has been known as "freak" cars the com
mittee will insist that all ca-s entered
for the mile and two-mile-a-mlnute races
will have to qualify by going at least
twenty miles at a minimum speed of
about forty-five seconds to the mile.
Cablegrams have been dispatched to
the principal clubs of Europe nnd the
entries of famous European drivers are
assured. A member of the A. C. A. con
test committee and W. J. Morgan Is now
In Florida completing the arrangements
for the meet and acting In the interests
of both the above organizations.
LATHAM WAS A SHINE IN
INDICATOR HANDLEN'S ROLE
Arlle Latham stories are ripe always.
Latham's last appearance in baseball was
as an umpire In the O. and P. league,
which boasted a crop of twenty-four arbi
trators year before last. Nobody shed a
tear when Latham was let out.
When the versatile Arlie missed a ball j
and called it a strike he had a peculiar';
•vay of Squinting through his mask at the
"Thai.. 153 you owe me," Charlie
Starr b itham one day after
a particularly raw decision. ¦'Unless you
want to defend a lawsuit it's up to you
to make a payment on the debt," he con
tinued.
"I never pay debts," responded Latham,
and nobody disputed the assertion.
Soon after that Latham went the way
of all umpires who fall to make good, and
his genial countenance appeared no more
on the O. and P. lots.
NATIONAL LEAGUE MAY
SLASH SALARY LISTS
NEW YORK, Dec. 7.— One of the pro
posals which it is said will be made at the
coming meeting of the National League of
Baseball clubs in New York will be to
limit the number of players that any club
may retain on its salary list. It is said
George B. Dovey of the Boston club will
propose the adoption of a resolution for
bidding the reservation of more than
eight of the players and providing that
not more than five new men may bo
added during a playing season. Dovey
declares that the salvation of the big
leagues depends upon the reduction of ex
penses and that in order to retain public
Interest the teams must be more evenly
matched.
HAMDLESS HUNTER GETS
BIG BAG OF RABBITS
HANOVER, Pa., Dec. 7. — Although het
has no hands, Abraham B. Myers broke
this season's record for the most suc
cessful one day's hunt in York county,
when he brought home last night twen
ty-throe rabbits, eighteen of which ho
had killed himself, whllo his companion,
with both hands, shot only five.
Myers holds his gun by a ring under
the stock large enough to admit the
stump of his left arm, while to the
trigger a strap is attached, the end of
which he grips in his teeth and thus
discharges his gun. Myers lives in
Lancaster and is visiting relatives in
his former homo here.

FEW CHANGES
IN MANAGERS
OIG BASEBALL TEAMS TO HAVE
BAME LEADERS
Cincinnati Among Doubtful, as No
Man Has Been Chosen to
Direct Reds for Com.
Ing Season
NEW YORK. Dec. "I— Although a new
baseball season is many months away
fans in many cities are wondering who
will manage the ball team in their city
next scuaon.
Clark Griffith will lead tho Yankees
again, while John McGraw will be at
the head of the Giants. Both managers
are already pondering over what they
will do to bring a championship In their
respective leagues next season.
Griffith has had many hard tights for
thu pennants in the American league
since the Highlanders broke into New
York, and he has not yet piloted a win
ner, but he thinks he will in 190S if he
has a fair amount of luck.
On thu other hand John McGraw thinks
that his men will recover the ground they
have lost during the past two seasons
and next year will be lighting from the
opening bell.
Patsy Donovan has been reappolnted
manager of the Trolley Dodgers. Pat
says that if things break right next year
he will turn out a ttam that will be in
the light from the outset.
There is a great deal of doubt as to
who will manage the Reds. Ntd Hanlon
has lost his job as head of the Redland
bunch, and there are a great number ot
men that will gladly take up the work
that he left off. However, it Is probable
that Miller Hugglns, the doughty little
second basenan, who is admired by all
the Cincinnati fans, will be given a
chance to show what he can do as a
manager.
St. Louis of the National league will
undoubtedly got rid of Manager Me-
Clusky. He has been more of a draw
back than a help. No line can yet be
had on the prospective manager of the
The Boston Doves will have Joe Kelly,
the man whe turned out a team at To
ronto last season that won the class AA
championship, as manager in 1908 to
succeed the dethroned Fred Tenney, for
years the first baseman of the Hub con-
Frank Chance will again lead the Cubs,
and will try hard to win another world's
championship. He has won two pen
nants in succession now, and is yep
anxious to win a third. However, he
realizes that it will be much harder to
take the top honors next season than it
was last, and he is very much afraid
that his team will suffer humiliation,
Ilka the Giants, who took a bad slump
after winning two flags in succession.
Clarke Will Stick
Fred Clarke, according to Barney Drey
fuss -will head the Pirates again, : tie
made his men put up a great fight toward
the close of the season, and had they
showed the same form all season they
displayed in the closing months his team
would undoubtedly have given the Cuba
a terrible fight for the championship.
Billy Murray will . lead the Quakers
again. ' He had great success for a man
who broke into the major league ranks
as manager for the first time. ..• He. de
veloped a S team that finished third in the
race" which is certainly going some

PRINCETON MAY DECIDE
TO MEET MICHIGAN TEAM
Footbali Management at Nassau
Wants Another Big Game, and
Ann Arbor Is in Line
for Tigers
PRINCETON, N. J., Dec. 7.— The
Princeton football management la re
ported to be debating on the advisability
of changing its gridiron schedule next
season. One more big game is needed,
and according to gossip, efforts will be
made to arrange a game with Michigan.
It is understood that the initiative in the
matter will be taken by the Ann Arbor
football leaders. If the reports that
have been flying around during the past
week are correct, the Wolverines have
tired of Pennsylvania and are anxious
to take the Tigers on.
Princeton, for several years, has been
looking for another game with a college
of high rank. It is said that a game
would have been arranged this year
with Harvard, but the negotiations were
brought to an abrupt ending by strenuous
objections from Captain Parker of the
Crimson team. It seems to be the pre
vailing feeling here that Princeton is
tired of trying to fix things up with Har
vard and will be glad to take on Michi
gan at th 2 first opportunity.
ROBISON FAVORS PLAYING
MORE DOUBLE-HEADERS
President F. De Haas Robison of the
St. Louis National League club takes a
di <t i y opposite olu.iid to Vr: ::Ulc.r.i
Harry Pulliam on the question of play
ing double-headers.
"There is a suggestion I intend to
make at the National league meeting
next month, the adoption of which I
think will be of benefit to the game,
and that is the playing of double-head
ers on holidays and Sundays.
"Saturday has become a universally
observed half-holiday in this country.
Now, I am in favor of playing double
headers on every Saturday afternoon
and double-headers on Sunday as well
where Sunday ball is allowed. When a
man goes to a ball game he wants to
get there early. He doesn't want to be
sitting around and watching the play
ers practice. He wants baseball, and
I believe that if the two major leagues,

together and agree to do this the game
would increase in -popularity. Don't
let me cast the impression that base
ball is losing Interest. It is the ono
game that the public enjoys year in and
year out. They want to read about It:
they want to see the games. It is cer
tainly a grand game, and one that will

Valveless Principle Grow
in Public Estimation
Automobile manufacturers . are ' coming
to , recognize the ' value :of . the ' constant f.
application of power such as is afforded v
by ¦ the steam ¦ engine " and the multiple- ,
cylinder gasoline engine. ¦ VV r ,',
'.¦: Just what the limit '. will • finally ,• be la
hard to determine as the ¦ four ! and six
have many arguments that sound good in
their favor. The : main . reason ' that . the
six' cylinder machine is not more popular
is because of the large expensu of mak
ing ¦, the ; engine ; and . the larger chas&la ;
necessary to support it. ' i
It ;ic admitted that . the ', more I constant
the torque or the more frequent applica
tion of Impulses for each revolution of the
engine the smoother. the car will run, but
when the buyer. Is ; asked to pay a. much |
larger ; price . for such • an t advantage, 1 ! he |
usually decides ito ; consider his ' purse !as f
well V as ¦ his -. comfort. v. The f main . disad
vantage :of the lour eye!? enylnn urn the a
necessary use of valves and lack of more
than .: one : Impulse for ¦. every • two f revo- V>
lution*. \f jt^#^£QKtSSEt!ifiSE4ISMOBHH
Where the four . cycle engine ¦ has ; one ; \
impulse : the , ordinary : steam • engine \ has ij
four and the two cycle engine has two.
That is ' the reason why - the , White. I
steamer leads '. all f others ' in ' popularity,
and 1 it iis ¦ the mistaken I idea* that lit re
quires an expert engineer to operate one f,
that prevents many from using itfSßSS©^:
The - Elmore, which j has > incorporated |
the i two cycle,: valveless > principle ; in S its g
car, ia winning in . favor ; rapidly. The
engine is so : simple s that ", all ; the j driver
has to do is to keep the spark plugs clean.
No adjustments of valves, 1 cams or gears |
la necessary, and the greatest bother of
a gasoline engine is eliminated. <
By , using three : or .' four cylinders, 1 the I
Elmore gets the equivalent of twice that
number of the four cycle style, and 2at
the same time attains simplicity. By the S
elimination of valves and the complicated
mechanism that must necessarily, accom
pany ', them lit is possible |to | produce j' a .
high power engine for less money than is |
required for . the four cycle type. This
works to the advantage of the buyer in t)
a material cut in the price of the car.-'Qj3s
i There ¦ has • been I considerable ', improve- 1
ment In two cycle engines lately, and
when more of ; the : dealers break j away.l
from the old style it will be only a short
time until the " simple two cycle \ motor.*
will " lead , all other / types of , gasoline f
