OWEN MAKES GREAT SPURT
Lincoln, May 20. (Special Telegram.)-
Minnesota gave Nebraska
the worst drubbing it received this
season in the annual rtual meet be
tween the two schools by a score of
7.1', to 48 V,.
A heavy rain last night and show
ers during the meet made the track
flow, but remarkably good time was
made.
Minnesota scored in everv event
and had such a lead that it forfeited
the relay to Nebraska in order to
catch an early train.
The 440-yard dash, won by Owen,
was a pretty race, with Fischer of
Minnesota leading until the last 100
yard when Owen passed him with
a splendid spurt. The finish of 100
yard dash was so close, the judges
were unable to decide second place
and split the points betwen Scott and
Johnson, Following if the summary:

HIGH ENTERS VALLEY MEET
Nine Men From Local School Will
Take Part in Missouri Valley
Track Meet.
EXPECT TO MAKE GOOD SHOWING
Central High school will enter
nine men in the Missouri Valley meet,
which will he held May 27 at Kan
sas City. Practically the entire squad
that romped away with the state
meet will represent the local school
at the big meet. The following men
will he entered; "Chuck" Morearty,
Wilder Kullaway, James Kaynolds.
Floyd Paynter, Thurston Logan,
Raymond fturgess, Dwight Danforth,
Alvin (ieisler and John Crowley.
The high school squad i confident
that it will place in several events
considering that they will not en
counter much stronger competition
than they met at Lincoln. Some of
the teams that they will compete
against are Lincoln High, the two St.
Joseph High schools, and three Kan

consistantly enough to figure any
points in this event. The discus
throw Is being taken care of by
Crowley who succeeded in heaving;
it over ninety-nine feet in the state
meet and secured second place.
RaynoMs it Surprise.
Jimmy Raynolds is blooming out
into a real classy hurdler at evidenced
by his securing a first and second
place in the state meet. The de
partment was considered woefully
weak at the beginning of the season,
following the retirement of Neville
and Weirirh, but Kaynolds, who wtt
their understudy all of last year, has
filled the gap in great fashion.
J'aynter lost his rice in the state
meet by misjudging the lasting power
of the winner of the race, j'aynter
cured first place in this event laat
year, while the winner of the race
this year ran second. Paynter ia
considered a heady runner and hia
mistake of this kind are very few,
He should p'are in hi event in the
valley meet sjnd any athlete who iuc-
ceens in croming tne tape in ironc oi
him will have to show some laat
paces. Logan,,' running the quarter
mile this year for the first time, won
his race in the state meet in handy
fashion. The quarter-mile i always
run at a killing pace and It takes a
man with grit to successfully run it.
Logan seem to be the best man that
could possibly be obtained, possess
ing a world of grit and stamina and
fit lent experience so far to be counted

Burgess In Flrat Year.
Purgess is the only member on the
team running the mile. He ia only
a sophomore and thi it hia first year
on tha team. He hat not had suf
ficient experience a ofar to be counted
upon to place m hi event.
Danforth and Ceisler are showing
up well. Danforth is running close
behind Morearty in the broad jump.
Morearty took first place in both the
inter-class and the state meet in the
broad lump and Danforth wat a close
second on both occasions.
. Thi will orobablv be the Isst meet
in which tha team will enter this
year unless a squad ia tent to the
Siou- Falls or Chicago meets. The
proposed meet with the Nebraska
freshmen was called off on account
of the lark of time for preparation
for the high school squad, but it may
be held at a later date.

BIG INCREASE IN
HIGHWAYJIILEAGE
Thouiandi of Milei of New Roadi
Reported by Scouts for Auto
Tourists,
All STATE8 ARE COVERED
No better evidence is needed to
show that real results are being ob
tained from Hie good roads propa
ganda of the last few years than the
enormously increased mileage of
hard roads open for 1916. Jly bond
issue or direct taxation. tTie rather
slow working . legislative machinery
necessary to atsrt actual road work
has been preparing for two or three
years, with the result that 1915 saw
more actual mileage completed than
any previous three years. We all
like to hear ot new bond issues and
about the legislative machinery get
ting under way or a road crew start
ing in its work, but every motorist
it much more impressed when they
read, "New twenty-mile stretch of
improved rosd between A and B
now completed and open for travel."
Every motor tourist has a keen in
terest in knowing how many of
these stretches are open, but natur
ally it takes a well organised force
to gather and distribute such data
covering the whole United States.
Such information can only be ob
tained actually by a personal inspec
tion of all roads by men traveling in
cars over the tourist routes, and for
tunately for the interested tourist we
have such an organization In the
Illue Book National Touring bureau
and its force of road scouts.
Silent Scouta Work.
During I VI 5 these silent scouts
you seldom hear of them eight in
number, were travelng by motor car
all over the United States. Each
crew averaged over lS.fKK) miles and
not a state was missed. They sent
in daily reports on the roads actually
covered by them, also investigated
the probable condition on intersect
ing routes.
That motor touring on a larger
scale than ever in the history of this
country will be under way in a short
time seems assured. All those who
are in touch with the tourist situa
tion agree on this and point to
many factors which warrant a unani
mous opinion. This feeling of con
fidence is further warranted by the
following factors: The probability of
the great Kuropean war continuing
at least throughout the summer will
prevent the wealthier class of- car
owners from going abroad; the tre
mendous increase in the outpnt of
pleasure cars compared with pre
vious years; accurate figures com
piled by the Automobile Chamber of
Commerce show bevond a doubt
that over 1,0)0,000 cats will be put
on the market in this country dur
ing l9lo. The general prosperity of
the country is the best e have seen
in years and this means easy money
witli the ability of enormously in
eieaied amount of people to take ad
vantage tif longrr vacations, and of
spending sufficient money to war
rant a motor trip

LEAKS IN THE ADTO UPKEEP
Means of Eliminating; Waste Which
Goes to Swell the Gaso
line Bill.
COMMON POINTS OF TROUBLE
"In these day when the cost of gaso
line I an Item to be considered It be
hoove the owner of en automobile to
eliminate fuol waete," say H. C.
Hrokaw, prtnrlpaj of the West Plde Young
Men' Christian association Automobile
school, New York City, who describes
way In which losses often occur.
"On of th common point of trouble,"
say Mr. Hrokaw, "1 with th Intake
manifold, which has to do with tha dis
tribution of tha rm mixture from th
carburetor to tl,a several cylinders. A
leak at the carburetor side would prevent
drawing Into the manifold a ufficlent
eupply of the mixture, so that th cylin
der would be scantily tipplledperhap
one or mors not at all supplied. Iikewise
air would be drawn into the manifold
through the leak, and thi would thin
the mixture coming from th carburetor.
A the mixture In th cylinder would b
thin It would not compre properly, th
firing preeeure would be poor, the mix
ture would fire badly or not at all and
the power would be lessened.
' The natural thing to do when th mis
firing 1 noticed I to open tha attray or
needle valve, admitting more geeollne to
the oarburetor and making a higher eon
sumption with no gain In power. Th
proper thing to do 1 to look for a leak
In tha Intake.
It th leak be on tha cylinder aid of
th manifold, It might b at one or all
of th cylinder. Th result would b tha
Mint as In the eaee Just died, a poor
supply of th mixture, or some of tha
oyllndera might be properly supplied and
work properly, while th other would
he ehort of the mlxtur and might not
flra at all. The loss might b sufficient
to sffect seriously th power and lessen
the speed of the car.
"Tha manifold ought not to become
looeened In ordinary use of tha ear.
There have been case where vibration
haa done It, but the usual trouble I
where th manifold had been removed
for aome purpoee and Improperly re
placed. Copper and aebeetoa gaeketa are
ordinarily used, and these may b dented
or Jammed out of shape so that tha Joint
Is not tight, or there might have bean
no ahellaa handy, or the bolts may not
have been tight enough. Whatever th
reason, tha leak makes a wa)t mixture,
and the first thought of chanffeor or
garage man 1 to tncrea the sraaotlna
at the spray ooisl of the earburwtor. to
make tha mixture th right proportion
to fire. On acoount of tha mixture being
made up In the Inlet manifold. Instead
of tha carburetor, tha work la not effi
ciently don and gasoline ts wasted and
the expense tncreaeed.
Wnrii Valve Sterna.
"Another leek which needs to be etor
rerted frequently Is at tha valves. Po
much ha been written about the car of
valve that It would seam auperfluoua to
refer to It, but regrlndlng and proper care
pay big dividend In efflrlenry and should

other, which Is due to worn valve tem.

valv stem tilts the valvs head Just
enough to permit a little gas to go
through, leenlng cornpreslon and
power. If It he the lntuk valv It will
let tn air abova the carburetor, and this
must Impralr tha mixture, making It nee
eeeary to furnish a much larger supply
of mixture for th cylinder.
I.eakr Pipe.
"On of th most common eaues of gas
los 1 from leaky eupply pipe. Where
there Is a solid pip from tank to car
buretor th only leak, ncceiearlly, barring
a break or perforation of the pip, would
be at th connection with tank or car
buretor, Vibration mlffjit caue th Joint
to loosen, though If they ar put together
properly with hllao, toap or aome equiv
alent and are thoroughly tightened there
ought not to be any loosening. It I need
les, but how often we see a car dripping
gasoline at a conelderabl loe. It I also
dangerous, for a stray flame or (park
may Ignite th gas.
"While speaking of leaking gaeolln I
am reminded of another leak of tha same
nature which Is quit a expensive, and
that Is of lubricating oil. If you do not
believe It to be prevalent or ertou In
extent yon have only to watch places
where automobile frequently tand along
th curb and notice the pool of oil on th
pavement. The come from leaky crank
cases, tranamlsalon gear case, rear axle
gear case or from a faulty distributor,
In most cases It Is only a matter ot
tightening a few bolts or connection
occasionally! but with oil at preeent
price it I a matter acrlou enough to
b taken Into account
"X am trying to make It plain that
wherever thers Is a leak between the car
buretor and the cylinder it lets in air and
thins th mixture so that it Is necessary

"Th burned gasea pas out through th
exhaust valve aide and In doing so often
deposit smsll pieces of carbon, whl"h
the valvs from seating properly and le
perfectly good mixture escape. If not
cleaned often tha heat and oonstant tap
ping of th vaJvs airalnt th seat will
hammer th carbon fast to the valv or
eat as though it hsd been fused thers.
Carbon must b srrsped off frequently
snd as often as necessary the valve
should be reground Into the seat
Cylinder Wear Oval.
"Piston rings which are not pinned often
work around until the slot r In line
and the mixture will blow through. If
the rings will not stay In place a pin
ehould be put In th ring groove on th
piston to prevent tt from working around
Naturally th rlnK must b kept free
from carbon or gum from the oil or they
will 'freese' to the piston and leak mlx
tur. "In the older cr th cylinder may be
worn oval so that the piston and Its ring
do not fit. When the cylinder t oval the
piston will not pump In th gs properly
snd when the explosion occurs, a good
rfeel of the hurnpd gss will he forced

In cleaning out and replacing the oil, If
water la found, It always Indicates a

caused by the thrust of the connecting
rod being against one eld of the up
