WAYCROSS EVENINQ HERALD 63.2 MILES ON 5 QTS. GASOLINE PROBABLY WORLD’S RECORD MADE WITH WHITE "30.” On last Wednesday, the White Com* V*ny through their local agents, the <Mst Auto Company of Union City, Ind„ held a gasoline economy contest Between Union City and Richmond, • distance of 63.2 miles. A diamond Ure was the prize offered to the con* testant who covered the route using the smallest amount of gasoline. Fif teen White Gas cars, all owned by Union City people, were entered for the event and each driver was accom panted by an Inspector and two other passengers to bring the total weight carried In the body of the car up to $75 pounds, being the minimum re* «nlred. Chas. Trltt, Jr., of the firm i Of GuncVcl-Harlan-Trltt Company won the contest by covering the 63.2 mile coarse using only one gallon and quart of gasoline, an average of 49.33 miles per gallon. How It Was Dons. ToTelate the record and not to ex plain how It was done would fhaure a boom In the membership of the An- nan Ins Club. The winner of the con test gives this explanation. “The route between Union City and Rich mond Is a succession of hills. When I came to the top of a hill would shut off my engine, release the compres sion In the cylinders (which you can not do with any but White cars) and coast, not only down the hill but for a long distance on the level and in some cases the car would get a good start up a new hill before It would he noeevsary to give her more gaso line. My averago speed was twenty- five miles per hour." The second best score was made by H. K. Barrett who averaged 33.43 miles per gallon. The total average of all the contestants who made the trip was 28.2 miles per gallon. One of the cars was driven by Mrs. CorA Flatter who finished with an average of 21.98 miles per gallon.
