Herbert Males, mayor, has officially proclaimed Tuesday, Nov. 20, a holiday for a great civic celebration In honor of the three Graham brothers, heads of the Graham-Paige Motors corporation, in recognition of their contributions to Evansvilles prosperity.

Factories, business houses, and schools will be closed to enable Evansville's 95,000 inhabitants to expres their appreciation of what the three 'Grahams have done to promote the industrial importance of the city. The holiday has been officially designated "Graham Day. The reasons for the celebration, unique In the history of. American municipalities and of American industry, are summed up. in an edltoilal in the Evansville Courier as follows: "We- owe the Grahams a great deal.

Evtrpone knows that after building up a truck plant hse that compelled world-wide recognition in the automobile field, the Grahams came back to Evansville for a factory site after they had embarked on an entirely new venture at Detroit. Thye came back because they liked Evansville, and because they believed in Evansville." The new Graham-Palge body plant With but 10 months of 1928 elapsed, 53 per cent more Oldsmobiles have been shipped from the factory than during, the entire" 12 months of 1927, factory officials announce. This high record is doubly significant in view of the fact that Oldsmobile has been making consistent Increases for the past three years and 1927 was the company's best year. From Jan. 1 to the end of October, this year, more than 83,000 Oldsmobiles have been shipped to dealers, the official report continues.

The October shipments totalled nearly 7,000 cars. Retail sales are reported to show equally great increases. The latest figures for retail sales compiled are for the first nine months of the year, during which time the domestic sales were 56 per cent greater than during the same nine months in 1927. Demand Continues High Although several new buildings were erected a. year ago to give additional facilities for increased production, the demand for the new Oldsmobiles from the time they were first exhibited at the National automobile shows has been greater than the manufacturing capacity of the factories This condition has been remedied, the Highways In Java Beautifully Shaded Some of the most beautiful highways in the world are located on the island of Java.

With its WATCH THE CHOKE Wateh the choke wh driving on cold days, T. H. Stnmbaugh, general service manager of Oldsmobile. He say that the choiee, pulled out to aid starting, should be back as soon as the engine begins to warm up.

Leaving the choke out wastes gasoline and is likely to form rarbon. The longest railway run is from Riga to Vladivostok, 6809 miles. Greater convenience during cold weather driving is assured Oakland-Pontiac owners through the incorporation of the effective "cross-flow radiator on both Oakland All-American and the Pontiac Sixes, according to the Associated Motors, local Oakland-Fontiac dealer. This new Oakland-pionecrea development, he stated, has proved its superiority over the old type radiator in the rigid tests it has already received in the hands of hundreds of thousands of owners since Us introduction on the Pontiac Six last January, and its subsequent installation on the Oakland All-American. This new type radiator is particularly suited to winter driving, according to Mr.

Oldenberg. "because it reduces to a minimum loss of water or anti-frcze solution through evaporation. Cost of operation correspondingly is reduced. "As the name cross-flow Indicates, water in the radiator flows horizontally through the larger radiator core instead of vertically, as in the old style radiator. Hot water from the engine enters a tank on the side of the radiator and flows cross-wise to a cool water tank on the opposite side, and from there is returned to the engine.

This rool water tank extends up the side of the radiator to the top, where the filler cap is located. "While parsing cross-wise through the core, any evaporated water or antifreeze mixture is condensed before it reaches the vent, thus preventing its escape through the overflow pipe, as was (he case formerly. 'The rugged core also is an improvement, inasmuch as it is supported on three sides by tanks instead of only two. Copper is used in the construction of the core instead of brass, marking still another advance in construction. "Circulation on both Oakland and Pontiac cars is hafldied by a redesigned water pump with reduced end thrust.

The cooling system on both models also is automatically controlled by a thermostat which steps the flow of water until th engine is warmed up to th proper temperature. "The cross-flow radiator represents another one of the many features, now general use throughout the industry, such as Duco finish, four-wheel brakes, which were pionrcred by the Oakland Me' or Car Co.

Pcimzpil Helped In Yankee Doodle Trip Across The Country Harry Tucker, California flying enthusiast who owns the famous Yankee Doodle plane, has become almost a coast-to-coast commuter.

The latest feat of the Yankee Doodle was a New York to Los Angeles non-stop flight in the record-breaking time of twenty-four hours and fifty-one minutes. This remarkable speed was made in spite of the fact that the sturdy little plane bucked vigorous headwinds almost from the early morning start to the finish of the flight. Long before the start was made, Mr. Tucker and his pilot, Capt. Collyer, gave their customary painstaking attention to all details that might affect the success of the flight.

As in all other flights of this great plane, Pennzoil was chcsen to furnish safe lubrication for the This same lubricant was also used when the Yankee Doodle, with Goebel at the controls, broke all trans-continental flying records by almost eight hours flying from west to east, as well as when this plane took first honors In the great American non-stop air derby from.
