SCHOOL HACK LAW EXPLAINED. o=ly One Speelal Privilege Granted Drivers, Says Li»t. Donovan ~ in Interview. L In answering the many ingiries regarding the rights of drivers of schoél hacks while traveling on the public highways, Lieut. William Donovan of the Indiana state police said today: “School hack drivers have the same rights ds the drivers of any vehicla on th®®Foads of this state, with a single exception No machine, whether going in the same or opposite directiofi as the school hack, may pass a hack. while the vehicle is in 'the act of receiving or discharging students. We intend to prosecute any drver guilty of breaking this rule.” Many complaints have been received at various times about the conduet of hack drivers whle on the road Driyers have refused to give half the road when meeting another car, and have refused to allow cars going in the same direction to pass them. Others say drivers frequently step on the wrong side of the road when discharging or loading students.

~ Pontiac Registrations. Continuing . the record shattering pace it has maintained since its iatroducton, the Pontiac, Six for the threemonth period ended July 31st, led all six cylinder cars in new car registration in the United States, according to 'an .announcement made today by W. R. Tracy vice president i charge of sales of the Ookland Motor Car company. . :

This relative standing, based on the most recent complications received by Mr. Tracy from R. L. Polk and Company, -credits the Pontiac Six with a total of 61,880, registrations during

the three-month period—more than 1,000 cars in excess of its closest competitor, and nearly 2,000 units ahead for the si/ngle month of July. This record is regarded as particularly outstanding because the Pontiac Six was first offered to the public less .than thirty,mdnths before it attained first position in registration of all makes of six cylinder, cars. . Almost as remarkable as its gain over competitive cars in the increase

in Pontiac ‘sales_'this year over previous years. In May, registrations were 21,995 units as against 13,238 in May of 1927 and 5,908 in 1926. A gsimilar increase was registered during June and July. - . Registrations for the three month period ended in July, in comparison with previous quarters also reveal.in graphic fashion how the Pontiac Six forged to leaéership in Its field. While registrations for May June and July of this year totaled 61,000 units, in the same quarter last year, the total was 38,00 cars in 1926, 17,000 Pontiac Sixes. . . “

.The pace .established by this lowest priced General Motors Six is expected to continue, Mr. Trdcy stated, in view -of the numerous refinements that recently have been added to the car, making it more than ever a popular favorite.. : . o

Production is going forward at a rapid pace in the new Pontiac factory, said to be the most niodern automobile plant in the world, to meet the anticipated demand during the coming months, according to Mr. Tracy. L
