ment, It is alleged, and has also de

OLDFIELD HAS A HUNCH
Barney Oldiield, the veteran
speed king, who has bagged the big
prize in many a racing contest, now
comes to the fore again, this time
in the role of creator of a speed
chariot which he confidently expects
to smash all records.
He has dubbed this new car of his
the "Flame of Fury," and he ex
pects to toddle along at a mere
three-hundred-mlles-per-hour clip.
Barney is going to spring some in
novations in construction as well as
speed. He expects to view the fleet
ing landscape through a periscope.
A huge twin-six motor is being built
by Harry Miller, celebrated in his
line. Furthermore, he plans to give
his lightning-rivaling racer Its first
official tryout over the new Philadel
phia Motor Speedway, now nearing
completion.
But In one particular Barney will
make no change. He will keep his
meteoric "Flame of Fury" free from
friction by lubricating with Dixon's
Graphite Automobile Lubricants. He
has used Dixon's for several years
in every race, and Dixon's have help
ed him home a winner so frequently
that he is convinced of Dixon-de
pendability. Barney knows that
Dixon's meet the exacting require
ments of racing contests where a
second means more than a minute
means to the day-in-and-day-out
driver. Barney is one of the multi
tude of drivers who use Dixon's
knowing that no matter what speed
they devolp, Dixon's will make fric
tion conspicuous by its absence.

SATURDAY EVENING,
BULLFROG LAW
EFFECTIVE SOON
Commissioner Buller Says
People Will Have Chance to
Find Out About It
"We will glv® the people of Penn
sylvania time to find out about the
bullfrog; law before we start enforc
ing it." said Commissioner of Fish
eries N. R. Buller to-day. "This is
the first law ever passed in this State
to protect the frogs and many people
may not know about it. We are hav
ing the provisions worked out and
will see that the people get the word.
It will be some time before it is en
forced, but we do not propose to al
low raiding of lakes and ponds by
people who want to clean them out
before the law becomes operative."
Commissioner Buller declares that
the law, which limits the catch to
twenty-five "bullies" per day, was
needed in Pennsylvania because
owing to the demand for frogs for
food purposes they were being hunt
ed by men who made it their busi
ness and who traveled from section
to section, literally clearing them of
frogs. Commissioner Buller says that
the provision forbidding the use of
lights while hunting frogs was for
the same protective reason.
Since the enactment of the law the
Department of Fisheries has had
numerous inquiries about the en
forcement of the act and protesting
against it being put into effect im
mediately. The season for hunting
frogs will bo from July to November.
The Game Commission is having
the game code digested and the sea
sons and other information in tab
loid form will be printed on muslin
sheets and spread broadcast through
out the State. As in the case of the
bullfrog and terrapin laws the new
seasons will become effective this
year.

JOHN QUAM GETS
COMPENSATION
Harrisburg Man Shot While
at Work Will Be Given
Allowance
The State Compensation Board In
| an opinion by Chairman Harry A.
Mackey allows compensation to John
• Quam, a driver for McCreath Bros.,
| Harrisburg, who was shot during the
course of his employment by a fel
j low employe who had gone Insane.
The board holds that "it is sufficient
if he suffered his experience while
i in the course of his employment" for
him to be compensated. "In this par
i ticular case, wo find as a fact," says
the opinion, "that the claimant while
| engaged In the prosecution of his
I work for the defendant suffered an
I injury by being shot by an insane fel-
I low workman. Therefore, there can
i be no intention imputed to the as-
I sailant. The case in our Judgment
] presents the same features for con
sideration as though the claimant
were injured while prosecuting his
work for his employer because of a
defective piece of machinery." The
opinion upholds the finding of Ref
eree Snyder.
In another opinion the Board
modifies an award of Referee Beemer
in a claim of William Latonis, Glen
i Lyon, against a coal company and
holds that it had itself placed a
j wrong interpretation on a clause in
! the act.
The Board upholds Referee Beem
er in a claim of Mary Elizabeth
Jones, Hazleton, against the Lehigh
| Valley Railroad Company, which
contended that her husband had
died while engaged in interstate com
| merce work for the company. The
man fell from a ladder in the com
-1 pany's shops. On this the Board says:
J "Simply because the Lehigh Valley
railroad company Is ordinarily en
gaged In Interstate commerce or in
j the transportation of commodities
from a point within a State to a
point within another,- raises no pre
-1 sumption that no matter what a
man's occupation might be while an
employe of that company that he was
engaged in interstate commerce at
that time."

Three-Year Tests to
Determine New Cord fire
A dozen test cars three
hundred miles a day for three years
was the crucible from which cam#
the Flrdstone Super-Size Cord Tire,
a new product recently announced
by the Firestone Tiro and Rubber
Company.
With infinite patience the Firestone
Company continued .its tests of va
rious sizes and types of cord tires
in an effort to develop a distinctive
equipment. The test cars were rout
ed over all sorts of roads, the drivers
working in two eight-hour shifts,
covering 150 miles each shift. The
drivers were required to keep an
accurate log of their trips, show
ing what distance of the road was
smooth, muddy or rocky and the
grade of the hills.
By an analysis of the wear on the
tires and the driver's logs, the test
ing department at the factory was
able to determine Just what Improve
ments were necessary. It was found
that the best cord material molded
Into an oversize tire gave the "Most
miles per dollar."
Tests of this type—known as the
Firestone Super-Size Cord—showed
a mileage of from 8,000 to 16,500
miles, varying according to the road
conditions. The tests also showed
that the super-size cord would in
crease the mileage from two to five
miles per gallon of gasoline because
of its greater resilience and flexi
bility.
