Ife drove on 6.00-20 Fire--tne High Speed Tires with racing treads. Ife had no tire trouble He u.ed Firestone Tires because Firestone ex-pert and engineers have through twenty-one years taken this race as a challenge to tire making. From this race they have developed these ilai improvements which have given to Tires the world leaderwMp in safety, and endurance. 1. Gum-Dipping.

Tires had to be stronger and able to stand the heat of a hot red-brick track at high speed. Firestone met this by developing and perfecting the dipping of cords through a rubber solution to insulate each fiber of every cord to overcome heat and give the cord greater strength and 53 greater flexibility. This is the Patented Gum-Dipping Process used in the making of every Firestone Tire. 2. The Balloon Tire was developed by Firestone to permit greater speed with comfort and safety by increasing road grip and absorbing shocks.

It was made possible by the added strength and flexibility given by Gum-Dipping. In the 1923 race, some of the drivers tried the then new Firestone Balloons. The others stuck to hish-pres-sure tires. Peter de Paolo on Firestone Balloons made a world's record. All the prize winners came in on Firestone Balloons Xow the balloon tire is everywhere the standard.

3. Double Cord Breaker. The higher-powered cars and the step-up in speed demanded still more tire toughness. At one hundred miles an hour, the circumference of a tire increases by more than 10, and this, added to the centrifugal force, tends to throw off the tire treads-Firestone met this by developing the Patented Double Cord Breaker hich gives a 36 stronger bond between the tread and the tire body and also gives a 26 greater protection against punctures and blowouts. 00 north ScUdooII BylDdm uuu ALSO THE ALTO, ARCHIBALD AND HOLLY RIDGE SCHOOLS ,1.

These are some of the great lessons that -Firestone has learned on this racing track. And so the men whose lives and fortunes depend on knowing tires always buy Firestone Patented Gum-Dipped Cord Breaker High-Speed Tires. There were 72 entries. Of these, 10 survived the elimination trials and every one of them was on Firestone Tires. And every tire was bought and paid for.
