RUNABOUT BUILT FOR USE IN CITY STREETS What is without doubt the most cur rlous motor-driven vehicle that has yet made Its appearance was recently demonstrated In the business streets of Baltimore, and is described, with illlustration, in the October Popular Mechanics Magazine. It is a diminu tive adaptation of the motorcycle and not a great deal larger In size than many of the manually propelled con veyances driven on city sidewalks by small boys. The device is designed not as a plaything, but as a quick, ready means of transportation. A compact 2-horsepower motor, which drives the machine at a maximum speed of 25 miles an hour, is mounted at one side of the rear wheel. The fuel and oil tanks are embodied in the frame, and it Is stated that one gallon of gasoline will carry the cycle ap proximately 75 miles. To prevent mud and water from splashing onto the rider, the wheels are nearly In cased In specially shaped mudguards. The machine is 4 ft. In length. 18 in. high, 9 in. wide, and weighs 45 lbs. It is equipped with a "kick starter" and is controlled In a novel way. By moving the handlebars forward the I speed is increased, while by drawing them all of the way back the clutch is disengaged, the engine throttled, and the brakes applied. BIG FARM-TRACTOR CON TEST HELD IN WHEAT BELT Nearly 100 farm tractors of differ ent bodies and sizes were entered In a power plowing and cultivating con test which was held in Kansas soon after the wheat harvest.

These spaces were allotted in accord ance with the size and potential ca pacity of the various tractors. The exhibition, which was on a much broader scale than any previously held in the wheat belt, was attended by thousands of grain men and agri culturists of the Southwest. The Oc tober Popular Mechanics Magazine contains views of a number of the tractors which participated in the con test.

It may be throttled down to )30 miles an hour with safety. With I a full load it is able to climb at a rate jof 400 ft. a minute.

FOOTBALL GAME HERE TOMORROW Tech Stars Meet Pottsville Stevens Trade at Steelton; Central Meets Lancaster With local scholastic football games opening to-morrow and the big col leges lining up for the first battles, sport interest will switch to the grid iron contests. Harrisburg's first bat tle will be between Tech High and Pottsville High. This game will be played on Munic ipal field at Island Park because of the baseball game on the regular field.

Central expects to make a good showing against Lancaster; while Steelton will send in a bunch of new recruits against the Trades School eleven. In the big arena interest centers In five games. Colby plays Harvard at Cambridge: Georgetown at Prince ton; Maine at New Haven; West Vir ginia and Pennsylvania, and Gettys burg at Cornell.
