PAGE FOUR FIRESTONES ON WINNING AUTO • A graphic story of the remarkable part played by tires in the 500-mile in- j ternational sweepstakes on the Indian apolis Motor Speedway, yesterday, was told today by N. C. Green, of the Wil liamston Motor Co., Firestone dealers in this city. It was the thirteenth consecutive triumph for Firestone" tn this great motor racing classic. "There is no more severe test of au- tomobile tires than that to which they i were put at Indianapolis," said Mr. | Green. "The cars darted along the straight aways at close to 150 miles an hour i and swept into the embanked curves at an appalling pace. It was on these turns that the stress and strain was the hardest. As the cars dived into the turns, their momentum caused them to climb the embankment from the lower rim to the outer. This was j an uncontrollable action by the car | and is called 'drifting,' In these per ilous moments it was necessary that there be a perfect coordination be tween the skill of man and the strength \ of steel and rubber to avoid disaster. 1 "At these terrific speeds one would expect to find great holes burned in the tread ami the rubber worn entire ly away. But nothing of the sort hap pened. An inspection of Firestone tires after they had the full 500 miles revealed an amazing state.of preservation. Very little wear was dis cernible. "It is the patented construction fea tures of Firestone tires which have made it possible for them to hold a supreme mastery for'thirteen years in the 500-mile contest. .Gum-dipping is l one of "these features. By this process the innermost fibers of -the cord body are protected against the fierce heat which is other tires is developed by friction at fatgh speed* At 100 miles Bargain Excursions EVERY WEEK-END Until September 6, 1932 Round Trip Fare From: WILLIAMSTON, N C., To RICHMOND - $1.75 NORFOLK - $1.75 I GO: All trains Fridays, all trains Saturdays and Sundays.
