He has driven out seven home runs. six triples and four doubles since he has donned a Concord uniform. Outen’e long distance swatting. Ge hrig-like, has made him the idol of local fans. When Outen comes to bat he is always extended an ovation, and it’s seldom that he fails to de liver a hit when one is needed. - Chick Miller. China Grove’s product to baseball, is driving the ball hard. The Weaver first-sacker is hitting the ball for, an average of .377, having collected 20 hits in 53 official times at the bat. Chic has performed in 17 games. Clever Lefty Morris follows Miller clqsely. He is hitting .373 for 28 games.

WOBBLY WHEELS WORK HAVOC WITH TIRES Motor Shoes Need Care To Give Lengthy Service. Every possible precaution should be taken to avoid unnecessary tire wear. Anything which causes a tire to drag with more or less side motion, instead of running true, will grind the rubber tread away faster than is normal. Check over the car as early as possible and see whether tire service is being lost because of any of the various forms of wheel irregularities. These include misalignment, improper cam ber, wobbles, etc., and may result from a bent axle, a bent steering knuckle, a loose wheel bearing, a broken spring, a bent spindle or a rrm unevenly plac ed on a wheel. A brake which drags will cause rapid tread wear also. . Sharp stones and pieces of glass, tin or the sharp edges of a switch point will cut into the toughest kind of a tire tread. The flexing action of the tire enlarges such cuts. Road dirt and moisture enter and eventually cause separation of the rubber tread from the fabric carcass of the tire. Look tires over at least every week. Clean such cuts and fill them with plastic patching rubber. Scraping a tire against curbs when turning a corner or when parking or throhgh careless driving over frozen rutty roads sometimes will wear the rubber off the sidewalls and the fabric carcass. Water and dirt then enter and rapid destruction of the tire re sults. Such sidewall injuries ought to be repaired promptly by an experi enced vulcanizer. The destruction of a tube often is started when it is being applied through its being pinched under the tire tool or under the bead of the tire. A little care is all that is needed to avoid pinching. In straight side tires the flap should be carefully and smoothly applied. A wrinkle will cut the tube, causing a slow leak. The lock nuts on the valve stem should be tightly screwed down as should the valve cap. Keep spare tubs where they will not be chafed or injured by grease or oil. Take a careful look to see that rims may not be causing the loss of some service from tires. Make sure that they are true so the tire runs without a wobble See that the flanges are not bent or badly rusted, which might cause them to chafe the side of th£. tire. THE SPEEDWAY CLASH.

The effect upon the enemy of aerial bombing raids by night during the World War was chiefly a moral one, as little damage was usually done, points out Floyd Gibbons, not ed war correspondent, in an artie’e fn this week’s Liberty . Describing the results of a night-raid by Eng lish flyers upon the airdrome com manded by Baron Manfred von Richthofen, •'the celebrated German ace, during which 130 bombs—more than a ton of explosives—were drop ped, the writer say: “The German squadron leader re ported. as the result of the raid, that ninety-eight bombs had dropped on thj airdrome, and that four hangars had been reduced to ashes. The ground casualties were believed to have been slight. “In Richthofen’s onii lon. the only effect of bomb-dropping at night was a moral one. He did not believe that the material damage done was worth the effort.” Mrs. Perlev Cook entertained the members of her Sunday School class at a p’enic Tuesday afternoon at Rocky River Church. \ Members of the younger generation are alike in many disrespects.' \•. .. .
