The Studebaker
SIX has wiped out
in Brattleboro the
old idea that a
"Six" is expensive
to run.
Because it is an economical car.
Its economy comes from light
weight and perfect balance.
Drop forgirgs save weight
are stronger.
We use 247 more than any
other car.
Heat treated steel saves weight
is stronger wears longer.
We use more than any other
car.
The SIX motor is more power
ful, more smooth and uses
less fuel than a "Four" of
larger size.
The Studebaker SIX is easy on
tires easy on fuel because
it weighs less than 3000
pounds.
That ': why owners are satisfied.
Why sa'.es are greater than any
other "Six."

Vanitie Was Only 11 Seconds Eehind
, on Elansed Time in the
Trial Yesterday.
NEW YORK, June 4. Sailing under
almost perfect weather conditions, judged
from the yachtsman's standpoint, the
Hervesholf -designed Resolute defeated
Alexander S. Cochran's Vanitie off Bye,
X. ., yesterday in the second trial race
for 73-foot sloops-, candidates for America
cup defender in the races set for Septem
ber against Sir Thomas Upton's challen-
L ' I 1 -I - nil i ...
tter, .namiocu. i. j no Kesolute s vic
tory over the Gardner boat came after a
l!o-mile race on the waters of Long Is
land sound by a margin of 11 seconds.
On estimated corrected time this was in
creased to 3 minutes 12 seconds.
The yachtsmen who " witnessed' the race
were not so much concerned with the
times as they , were satisfied at having
seen the two cun defense aspirants com
peting under far more favorable condi
tions than those prevailing ' in Tuesday's
initial contest, when the Vanitie was re
turned victor bv a margin of manv min
utes after having sailed twice around a
triangular .-course in winds of the flukiest
nature. These nautical experts felt that
last night they had a better line on the
tbility of the two sloops than could be
formed from Tuesday's race.
Such conclusions as were reached after
yesterday's test are at best but tentative,
for -the race, a beat to windward, proved
little beyond the fact that in the present
condition of the boats the Resolute is a
trifle faster in moderate airs. The Van
itie's sails are not as yet setting satisfac
torily, and although in a run off wind she
appeared a trifle faster the advantage o(
several weeks of tuning up by the Reso
lute showed clearlv in the course of the
race. Until the Vanitie has further op
portunity for a thorough tuning up ami
the yachts have met in a strong wind,
close followers of yacht racing will lie
loath to express anv opinion regarding
the relative merits of the sloops.

in practice yesterday and is out of
the game for a time. Next.
Pinch Hitter Ilenriksou of the Red

ed the same trick a few days ago.
They are started at. last.
"Red" Ames, whom AleGruw could
not make a Winning pitcher, has won
seven straight for Iler.og's Cincinnati
team. Fromine, who went to the
Giants as an exchange pitcher, is a big
failure, lie has shown nothing.
Pittsburg has now lost nine-straight
