AUTO UPHOLSTERERS
TURN TO CLOTH FOR
LEATHER SUBSTITUTE
Scarcity of Good Hides Has
Made It Imperative to
Find Another Makeshift.
Waterproof Goods Successful.
PHILS, AFTER 33 YEARS, UPSET
THE "ALMOST-BUT-NOT-QUITE" DOPE
Many Teams of Past, With Game's Great Stars, Have Looked
Better, But Pat Moratfe Hustling Bunch Has
the Fight and Win Spirit.
By GRANTLAND RICE
Baseball, as a pastime, may be na-tlonal-but
It Is hardly rational.
An Intimate study of this widespread
American institution brings to light a
number of bUarre Incidents. Two leading
esses will suffice.
Tho scarcity of good leather, compared
to tho proportion of demand, has brought
about an Important change In automo
bile upholstery which, according to many
manufacturers, will soon become univer
sal. Instead of using makeshifts In the form
of Imitation leather, many motorcar
builders already have adopted a hlgh
grado of waterproof cloth, declaring that
It is oven better from the standpoints of
wear and comfort than thu best leather
they could secure.
While It was not difficult to secure
enough leather for upholBterlng the SO,-
000 cars built a few years ago, the diffi
culty In securing an ample supply has
steadily Increased, until this year, when
it Is expected that fully half a million
cars will bo produced In this country,
Today It Is practically impossible to ob
tain enough good leather to go around
The Boeckelor Lumber Company of St.
Louts Is about to put on ths market a
new private garage. This garage is built
of wood entirely and by Ingenious de
vice In the Joining of the side boards It
Is dust-proof. The doors are unique, be
ing In threo folds and folding completely
out of tho way without taking up room
In opening or closing. The garage, Is built
In several sizes and can bo extended In
erection if desired and has a full comple
ment of windows according to the size,
with plenty of overhead room for air.
Tho exterior Is attractive In design. It Is
Intended to bo placed over a concrete
floor.
Not, so long ago It was considered a most
wonderful performance to travel In auto
mobiles at a spied of CO miles an hour,
but building of lighter chasscs, coupled
with tho development of engine power,
has wrought an Aladdin speed change.
In the 500-mllo International sweepstakes
on tho Indianapolis Speedway Ralph De
Palma, winning tho event, created the
great record of 5 hours 33 minutes K
seconds for the distance.
To cover 500 miles In a bit over BH hours
Is plunging a machine through spaco at a
rntn nf BO mllps nn hour This Is only the
average time, mark you, for sometimes
during the race tho winning car was
speeding at a rate of 13) miles an hour.
The Case of the Phillies
Thlrtythree campslgns ago the now es.
teemed Phillies were launched upon a
pennant career, They started out under
the management of Bob -Fergueon and
finished a sprightly last with the per
centage of ,17J. At the end of their thirty
second season they were stilt feodlng
from the soup trough without a pennant
In sight.
In these 30 seasons they had used up
ten managers nnd over 200 ball players
without finishing nrst-and sb high as
second on but two occasions.
And In that period they put some of
tho greatest stars of the game up for
an offensive drive. The list includes Ed
pelehanty. Nap Lajole, 8am Thompson,
Itogcr Connor, Dan Brouthera and many
of the most famous names In balldom
print. It Included everything but pen
nants. And Then
In 1913 the Phils finally wiggled up to
second place. And then came t'ne smash.
In rapid order from their strong ma
chine they lost Beaton, Brennan and
Moore, pitchers; Dooln, catcherj Knabc,
Doolnn and Lobert, Inflelders; Magee, out
fielder. Here were eight men gone at least five
of whom, who or which were stars.
Yes, It was certainly tough. Here was
a club that had spent 30 years and other
things pot hunting a flsg only to 'navo
a promising-looking machine all wrecked
and scattered. They must start all over
again, and possibly take another 30 years
heaving into sight. Tough7 it was bru
tal. Almost criminal.
An Untoward Incident
But for Borne painful, peculiar reason an
untoward development seems to havo
taken place in Phllly affairs.
With tho odds all their way they could
never scramble knee high to a gnat. With
tho odds against them well, tho Standing
of tho Clubs today Is a far more eloquent
answer than any large bale of words
could ever be.
After 32 years of failure the amazing
Phils are now riding on tho high road at
dizzy speed. Pat Moron has proved to be
a lender of merit. The club is hustling
over every Inch of fighting soil. It has
tho greatest chance to win a pennant that
any Phllly club ever had before nnd un
less It is stopped with a heavy thud on
this Western trip it Isn't likely to be
headed. For with Alexander around It
will bo hard to throw the Phillies Into
any rout. They have one man who con
check any landslideone Wan who can
break Up a slump and give the dub a
chance to recover and get going.
And with Mayer and Demaree backing
him up as they havo of late weeks, Alex
ander has a fine chance of entering his
first world series within the next ten
weeks.
Second Case
Ths second case referred to brings In the
Dodgers. They went West In June and
out of 12 starts managed to win i games
nnd drop 10.
Their percentago for the tour waa .1(1,
or thereabouts.
Thoy return home, and against almost
the same people, they Indulge In 28 games
with a net total of 21 victories nnd 6 de
feats. Their home percentage was .808.
Here Is a ball club that traveled along
at a .166 clip for a certain distance, and
then, without taking an extra breath, sud
denly doubles upon the trail Into an .80S
clip. Yet they say war stocks are fickle
and subject to violent turns.

IT IS EAST AGAINST WEST AGAIN
IN CONTEST FOR TENNIS TROPHY
The Longwood Cricket Club's annual
lawn tennis tournament for the coveted
Longwood Bowl, Won in 1911 nhd UK by
Maurice E. MoLoughtln, of California, ex
national champion, will In a day or so
resolve itself into another East vs. West
duel for court supremacy. In 1113 William
M, Johnston, another California crack,
captured the bowl.
The last succeas of an Easterner was
that of a P. Lamed in 1211. In the
event of that year Larned went through
the tournament'ahd then defeated W A.
Larned, his brother, In the challenge
round. The year before McLoughlln won
the tournament, but fell before the prow
cm of Bill Larned on the last day. There
fore, since the advent of the Western
contingent of lawn tennis player's some
five years ago It will bo seen that they
have, In this tournament as well as In
tho national championship, been almost
supremo.
The only Philadelphia who has ever
figured In tho event Is W. J. Clothier,
who In 190 won the tournament and de
feated Bill Larned In the challenge round,
only to loso to Larned tho next year
Again In IMS Clothier went through the
tournament, but that time Larned held
his own and retained possession of the
trophy. The latter has captured the
Longwood Bowl 11 times, In 1831 and 'ftf,
1S37, 1901 nnd from 190) to 1910, Inclusive.

A LIST of Chalmers Six-48 owners reads like the Blue BookV
of New York, or Boston, or Philadelphia, or Chicago.
Nearly half of all of this Model sold were bought in these four cities,
Of course many of them were sold .discriminating motorists in all parts
of the country because this car gave the highest quality and greatest value for
anywhere near the price. ' x
But1 literally thousands of additional cars were bought by people yho
could afford to pay an) price for their car. ? ,
Never Out of Commission
These thousands were more interested in
the fact that the car always answered the
roll call for service seven days in each week
and each week of every month than they
were in the fact that this also meant free
dom from espeme at the garage or the
repair shop,
These thousands were more interested in
the fact that the car was light enough to
respond like a thorough-bred to the fleck of
the whip than in the fact that it was also
economical of gas and oil and tires.
These thousands were quite as much
interested in the fact that it was made
strong enough to "ride tight" on bad
roads and still "stay put," as in the fact
that protection was there in case of mishap.
Unexcelled Style and Beauty
Many of these thousands particularly
women bought the car solely because it
was a more beautiful car than they could
get for the $4000 or $5000 they were
willing to pay,
They were unable to find the same won
derfully artistic moulded fenders in any
other car at an price,
They were not able to find more attrac;
live flowing lines, beautiful upholstery,
rich color and quality of body finish, tr
such smart effect, as the red wheels, for
instance.
They couldn't find more inbuilt inherent
quality at any price than in the Chalmers
Six-48, first selling at $1925, later at
$1725, now at $1550.
How We Can Cut $375
And yet the question must be & natural
one to you "Then why did you cut the
price?"
Some motor car manufacturers cut
prices in order to get rid of a car that
won't sell on its quality merits.
We can cut the price on all of our cars
because we are cutting down the cost of
manufacture by a production nearly four
times as large as ever before, by new labor
saving cost-reducing machinery.
We can cut more on the Six-48 than on
the general line, because in addition to
these general savings, we are able to in
clude special saving because it is npt a
new model, hence, free from new tool and
experimental expense.
Best Motor Car Value Today
The same excellencies for which ihe
thousands in Bojton, New York. Phila
delphia and Chicago selected this car,
regardless of the price are in tho

For it is exactly the same mddel struc
turally with added refinements in finish and
equipment,
And yet you can buy the car today for

We believe that a car which appeals to
the strictest connoiiseurs of style and

demands of the mot mone-wise, motor
ists entitles us to claim that It u the bast
motor car value in America.
