—Let's Go Fishing— MARKSMEN TO COMPETE FOR STATE HONORS Annual Rifle and Pistol Shoot Starts Saturday at Frankfort. BY LEFTY LEE Timet I I'hmf Editor The annual outdoor rifle and pistol competition cf the Indiana national guard and the Indiana State Rifle Association will be held on the state rifle ranee near Frankfort, Ind . Sept 16 and 17. Arrangements have been made with the National Rifle Association whereby certain of its matches will be- held in conjunction with the Indiana meet. Gold, silver, and bronze medals will be awarded winners of first, second, and third places in ail meets conducted by the national association through the Indiana body. However, the national trophy and national championship medals will be awarded in the .state and regional meets throughout the United States atfer the scores are checked. The government has a limited amount of .iq-caliber ammunition which will be given to entrants, but no .45 caliber is available. Entrants in the pistol matches also are requested to bring their ammunition. If it can be arranged, tentage for entrants will be available at the range. All entrants must arrive at the range Friday night, Sept. 15. If you wish to sleep at the range, it would be advisable to bring your own blankets. Competitors are allowed to shoot on only one team; that is, no competitor will be allowed to fire on a military team in one match, and a civilian team in the same or other matches. Competitors are required to score for each other any one refusing to agree to this rule will not be permitted to compete. The matches scheduled are the civilian club and company match, regimental team match. Governor's match, state championship, tyro match, and pistol matches. The Indianapolis Rifle and PLslol Club has an excellent chance to cop its share of the laurels, as the weekly shoots have been well attended and some fine scores posted.

The news finally leaked through from Barbi e lake, where Walt Roeder has been spending his vacation, j Tire big ones are not hitting, but last Saturday Wait and Stan Morgan came in with ten that averaged around l - pounds. Charlie j Ridlen joined the party Sunday and that made it very sociable, each angler taking one bass. Roeder went back after a big one j late Sunday, and had the good fortune to get the strike, but he lost him. Just as the bass made the j break that was successful, George | Hargitt arrived and Roeder, looking for sympathy, exclaimed, “well, j George, I certainly lost a beauty. ’ j Things were no better fast when j Hargitt stated that he should lose him, for trying to horse him in. After that wise crack. Hargitt did not take a chance with the bass, but played around with the blue gills, and landed fifteen standards. Ed Miller and his wife will be at Barbee lake Saturday and Sunday, which is a tip for Roeder to duck before he arrives, as Hargitt has seen Ed. and added to the story. The never-ending argument among bass fishermen as to which is the gamest, the large or smallmouth. has a fairly good answer in the tackle used Th? angler out after the large-mouth usually carries an assortment of plugs, with two or more sets of gang hooks, and a few spinners, to which is attached at least one set of gang hooks. Naturally, a large-mouth battler loses some of his desire to fight when he clamps down on such an assortment of hardware. The angler looking for the small-mouth bass uses the one-hook lures or bass bugs on a fly rod. This leaves Mr. Bass comparatively free for those stirring leaps that give the boys their greatest thrills. The small-mouth bass does hold a slight edge, however, as he is found in running spring water, while the large-moutn prefers sluggish streams and spring-fed lakes. Given half a chance, however, the large-mouth bass can pul up a real battle.

Another argument always Is waged as to the relative merits of a bamboo against a steel casting rod. The newer type of steel rod has many friends, and is making more each day. This is especially true of the professional true temper, one of the lightest steel rods on the market today. A personal experience that was rather odd gives the steel rod the edge by a wide margin. Two weeks ago last Sunday Walter Jones was casting a bamboo at Raccoon creek, j and on his first strike, the rod broke. We did not think so much about that, but when Stan Morgan j broke his bamboo while landing a twelve-inch bass at Barbee 'ake.! Labor day. we made up ouY mind to play along with the true temper, that landed a three pound twelve ounce small mouth, and a2 1 pound large mouth, while these boys were breaking their rods.

For the seventh time, since 1926, a Stutz Special romped away from the field in the twelve and a halfmile grind of twists and turns up Pike’s Peak in the annual free-for-all-motor classic. Glen Shultz was at the wheel of the winning DV-32 Stutz Special. His time was 17 minutes 27.5 seconds, only 40 seconds slower than the record for the climb which he established with the same Stutz car last year. The winning car is powered with a standard DV-32 Stutz _ motor. Shultz redesigned the body and partially redsigned the chassis to facilitate rounding the many sharp turns of the course. The highway follows the old wagon road built in 1888. which was converted into an automobile highway in 1914. RECORD FLIER KILLED Polish Aviator Dies in Crash in Russia; Companion Hurt. !

ROSE ANALYZES CODE'S EFFECT ON TIRE TRADE Varied List of Benefits to Industry Recited by City Dealer. Each week this column will be devoted to comments on a current subject applying to the automotive industry bv some personality identified with this field in Indianapolis. BY ART ROSE President the Rose Tire Company What does the NRA code mean to the retail tire industry? For one thing it means a considerable increase in overhead not only for ourselves but for every one engaged in our line. In a business such as ours it has been customary to give the customer service seven days a week and practically twenty-four hours a day. It was, therefore, necessary for employes to work-as long as eighty hours a week. With the

ployment by many thousands and buying power by millions. I had the pleasure of visiting the mammoth tire plants of the Miller factory at Akron, shortly after the code was placed into effect and the sight was one of real inspiration. The place was a beehive of indus- ! try with thousands upon thousands | of men on the job. happy at their I work, executives at their desks un- | til the wee hours of the morning, j and strange as it would have seemed | but a short time ago, actually turnI ing down orders for thousands of , tires because demand was far ahead of production. i Boosted Employment Placing the industry under the code not only has greatly increased employment, but has gone even farther. Up to the spring of this year, the tire industry was in a state of constant warfare. Price cutting was rampant. Inferior tires made with cheap labor by unknown factories were being dumped on the market demoralizing it for the quality manufacturer. Prices declined to a figure which made it impossible for legitimate manufacturers to derive any profit. The whole industry was in an uproar and red ink was the order of the day. With the coming of the new deal and stabilization, the industry turned right about face, washed its linen, straightened out its family troubles and placed itself on a basis to receive the benefits of increased business. Increase Not Great While tire prices have shown some increases since spring, yet they have not rebounded to the extent, of other items, and especially of the main essentials of tire manufacture, rubber and cotton. We expect a further increase in the near future by all companies. As to the results of the NRA plan ! on the tire industry, while it is still ! too early to make any definite state- ; ments. our own business has shown J a decided improvement which, of course, reflects back to the man- ! ufacturer. There can be no doubt that the increase in buying power which the I code gives the worker will enable ! him to satisfy more of his wants j while the increase in leisure fur- ! nishes the incentive to go places and I that means that the service station will have an opportunity to sell him | tires, a battery, gas, oil, etc. HY RED SUPER 70 GAS IS PLACED ON MARKET - Mid-Western Petroleum Corporation Introduces New Product. C. E. Foreman, president of MidWestern Petroleum Corporation, announced today that anew gasoline known as “Hy Red Super 70” is now on sale throughout the state. According to this company, the 1 new gasoline has one of the highest octane or anti-knock rating ever developed in gasoline in its class. Thi means more power, smoother action, faster acceleration, easier starting in cold weather and greater mileage per gallon. It is an all- | weather fuel, effecting these im- | provements in cold, hot or rainy weather as well as under all motor operating conditions. The price is the same as regular gasoline, with no premium added. The Mid-Western Petroleum CorI poration, an Indiana concern, with offices at 542 North Meridian street, I is a member of NRA and operates j many stations throughout this territory. Using anew machine, three op- ; erators can fill 600 small bags with i fruits or vegetables in an hour.

Woodlands Are Famed for Variety of Flowers; Scenery Majestic. BY STITRGE WELLS Times Automobile Editor At the invitation of “Chick" Cohen, president of the Central Buick Sales Company, last Sunday’s trip j to the scenic McCormick's Creek i Canyon state park was made in a i new de luxe Buick eight sedan, j which combines all the qualities of a fine auto, and terminated with a I last-minute visit to the annual state fair to view the automobile displays j and other exhibits. Although not enjoying the fame that some of the state parks do, we : found that McCormick's Creek has | many advantages. One is that it is ; very accessible —only a little more ; than an hour, driving at reasonable j speed, just about sixty miles from ( Indianapolis. Located in Owen county, •which; continues to bear the nickname of “Sweet Owen,’’ so christened by pioneers, McCormick's Creek park consists of 473 acres and has within its bounds some of the Hoosier southland's most beautiful and majestic scenery. Flanked by River Flanking one side of this young reservation is white river, which is ; reputed to provide much sport for the fisherman. Being in the region j of the great stone belt, it is replete ; with deep ravines, gorges, and heav- j ily wooded slopes. The park's woodlands are noted for their many varieties of flowers j and it is said that every species na- ! tive to Indiana is to be found in ! this wooded haven. Spring finds these woodlands a carpet of colorful blooms. The timber, while not j of virgin growth, is unusually fine second growth, showing what actualy can be accomplished in the hill: country by reforestation. This job, of course, was not done overnight, but represents many years of experimenting by the state in growing spruce, pine, and many other hardwoods in what are said to have been abandoned fields. Being among one of the first j parks in Indiana to develop and encourage group camping has done much toward increasing its popularity, so that today it boasts of many attractions and accommodations not to be found at some lesser known park. Hotel Is Modern One of these is a modern hotel, which operates the year around. The hotel and the group camps operate as two units, with administration buildings fully equipped with mess halls, kitchens and dormitories, capable of accommodating fifty ana eighty guests, respectively. A modern swimming pool of regulation size, with bathhouses adjoining, built of native stone quarried out of the park, nestles in a natural depression just a stone’s throw from the hotel. After a refreshing swim in the pool, accompanied by a hearty dinner at the hotel, a hurried trip back to the fairground was-made to get

EUROPE LIKES DE SOTO Medium-Priced American Car Draws Attention for Lines. It is even more stylish and smart to drive a medium-priced American car in Europe than it is to drive the most costly make of foreign cars, states Byron C. Foy, president of the De Soto Motor Corporation. Foy recently sent a caravan of De Soto cars to visit the smart places of Europe. In Paris, on the Riviera, in Rome, the De Soto drew huge crowds and caused a sensation wherever they went. The Europeans were fascinated particularly by the smart body lines and the various mechanical innovations.

SHELL TO ISSUE MAP BULLETINS Inaugurate Service to Give Drivers Up-to-Minute Data on Roads. What is said to be the most comprehensive highway map bulletin service rendered to motorists in the middlewest has been inaugurated by the Shell Petroleum Corp., according to C. W. Manville, division manager of the Indianapolis division. This exclusive Shell feature, called 'Travelaide,” comprises a weekly map prominently displayed at Shell service stations that shows last-

minute information on the coniition of all main highways of the state in which it is posted. Bridges or sections- of highways under construction that are closed to traffic, detour s, stretches of road recently oiled, and other important information to motorists are plainly indicated

on these maps, _photo Kirkpatrick which are 34 x3l Manville inches in size. The up-to-the-minute data on road condition.-, constantly is being obtained from the highway departments of the various states in which the Travelaide service is supplied. In case floods, wash-outs or any other developments that would block traffic along the main routes of any state occur between the weekly map issues, new maps showing these conditions immediately are posted at Shell service stations in that state. Supplementing this service, all Shell outlets supply motorists with state road maps, as well as metropolitan and in-and-out maps of tha larger cities, the latter of which are extremely helpful in directing the travelers through centers of population.
