THE OMATTA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 4, M10.

Flans of Speeders.

i but Was Spoiled by Mowei
Bta- Cara Waiting? for
' Chance.
Saturday afternoon's rain played havoc
Hrlth the plana of the Omaha Motor Speed
way company for their big race meet which
had been scheduled for Sunday and Mon
day. The rain of Saturday had already
made it certain thnt Sunday's races will
not be run and unless the sun gets busy
with a rengeance this mornlnir It Is more
than probable that the Ibor day races
M well will have to be postponed. In the
rent that Sunday furnishes plenty of sun
shine the races scheduled for Labor day
will he held. If the weather Is not such as
Uo put the track In shape attain, however,
j the whole meet will be postponed, probably
for two weeks.
The track was worked down under the
l drags and scrappers until prior to the rain
It was In rood, fast shape, the. work' on
'the stands, fences, gates and the like has
I been completed, and Omaha's newest race
course Is a really attractive plRce.
All the officials for the meet have not
yet been definitely chosen, but It Is known
that Otto P. Nestman and George Rogers
will act as referees. Frank Parmalee will
be one of the timers.
Mr. Nestman will not enter any of the
raees, but, driving Fred Hamilton's big
six-cylinder Stephens-Duryea, he has prom
ised to establish some speedy track rec
rrds In the runs which he will make
against time. At the speeding business
Nestman Is far from a novice. He has
some excellent records, made at Palm
Beach and at various eastern points, and
has driven the same car which he la to
drive in this meet two miles in a minute
and forty-two seconds from a standing
start. This record was made over the
Waterloo straightaway course, which is
not nearly so (food a track as the one over
which he will drive today.

GREAT AUTO MERGER RUMORED
Several Blar Concerns Gathering; In
the Tent of n Holding
Company.
The automobile world of manufacturer
and their far-reaching allies are busily
discussing the plans of a new merger In
the Cleveland district, a. region from
which butfew merger reports have, hith
erto emanated, and this, too, in spite of
its oromlnence as a manufacturing center
of the cars on the American market
Considerable mystery is being cast over
the merger, which has at least passed
.through the embryonic stage of Incorpor
ation, and little light is thrown upon the
Interests back of it by the names appear
ing In the articles of incorporation. Dili
gent Inquiries among them have elicited
no direct information, and' that they are
merely acting In a "dummy" capacity un
til the plans for real action are suf ficently
matured, is generally admitted.
From the most reliable source It Is un
derstood the merger promises to take Its
place In the front rank of holding com
panies, now becoming so fashionable in
the automobile manufacturing world.
Conservatively capitalized. $4,000,000 Us
the capitalization as a starter it prom
ises to absorb 'the manufacturing of one
of ie highest-priced cars marketed, and,
by using the selling agencies of tha con
cern, go Into active competition with
three grades of cars in demand, the lead
er in the $5,000 class, the next In the
$3,600 and the third in the more popular
$1,500 grade.. k
Concentration of manufacturing and
sellng forces Is the propelling influence
for the merger and big New York finan
cial Interests are the prime movers in an
undertaking, whlcn, carried out on the
lines now In the making, will concentrate
under one roof and In a central organi
zation, the manufacture and marketing of
this standard of cars.
Holding company or merger, conserva
tive Cleveland's motor Interests are In the
throes of speculation and many reports
are current as to the possibility of a gi-
I
gantlo corporation, of which the $4,000,
000 company, at that one of the largest
In tne state of Ohio, is the forerunner.

Bellevue Hopes
tor Strong Team
on the Gridiron
Dopesters Are Figuring1 Out What the
Chances Will Be This
FalL
Bellevue's chances for a winning foot ball
team this fall are about what you could
call "fair to middling." The line will be
strong but the backfleld looks bad. Re
port has It that Morter, who has starred
at half for the last three years and who
was captain last year, will not be back at
school. Morter 1s one of the best players
that ever donned a Bellevue uniform and
his loss will be a heavy one to the
team. Enfield, fullback, and Morters'
running mate, graduated last spring and
a new man will have to be developed to
fill his place. With the exception of
these two men, however, all of last year's
team will be available.
Barry, at center, will captain the team.
He is a veteran at the game and a strong,
steady player. Brandt and Rice will take
care of the guard positions. David Prim
rose, who made such a record for him
self on track this spring. Is very likely to
be tried out for fullback. If not, he will
be played at tackle, his old position. Cus-
tls and Fowler will doubtless put up a
haj-d scrap for the other position at tackle.
Jones and Clabaugh are doped out for
the ends. This will make a strong and
heavy line as all the men have had at
least one year's experience and will aver-

Touring Cars Made Into Torpedoes
in an Hour's Time
"Jackson" touring models can be fitted witlnremovable front doors and panels.
For fall and winter use or extended touring, the protection afforded in a car of
the torpedo type gives it an advantage that cannot be denied.
There are many , automobile users, however, who feel that for city driving, they
do not care to sacrifice the freedom and convenience of an open car. It is to
these that we particularly recommend out Convertible Torpedo Types. Front
doors and panels are furnished at a slight extra charge the loosening of a few
bolts suffices to remove them, leaving the regular, standard touring car.
Oil-Tight and Dust-Proof Construction
"Jackson" motors are of the Unit Power Plant type Motor, Clutch and Trans
mission being enclosed in one oil-tight and dust-procf case. Perfect lubrication
is assured by the circulating oil system dust and dirt re absolutely excluded
from the working parts. Plenty of oil and no dirt that's why "Jackson"
motors are wear-proof.
Full Elliptic Springs Front and Rear
All models are hung on full elliptic springs, front and rear. Their free, easy
action absorbs the jolts. This is an important factor in the life of a car.
The "Jackson" .s the acme of comfort rough roads can be taken without
jar. In all models the weight is carried close to the ground, and the cars have
a balance that is appreciated by the critical driver.
Ten Years of Successful Production
The Jackson Company has built practical, successful automobiles for the past
ten years it has never offered to the public an inferior car.
The Jackson plant is complete within itself. Modern machinery arid efficient
manufacturing methods enable us to produce a car from the raw material a car
which contains the utmost value for the price.
( Any "Jackson" dealer will promptly give you a demonstration.
