INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April (By Reid, the Associated Press ) Wallace moving picture actor, who recently filed autobis entry in the annual mobile race to be held at the Indianapolis motor speedway May SO, will drive car No 13, it was aaid here today. Twelve drivers entered the race ahead of Reid, and as has been done for several years, T. . Myers, manager of the speedway, planned to eliminate the number 13. Reid, however; Insisted that he be given the number, and the- - speedway official consented, Mr Myers said a ear bearing No. 13 had net started in the 600-mi- le Savin; of From ' Twenty-fiv- e to Thirty Cents Per Mile Made; Service Is Better. Again the motor truck steps into a new: field, and again it proves its. versatility and adaptability beyond question. For the first time in history gasoline-propelle- d can havp bees put into city railway service, to replace electric trolley can. This installation has been made by the Manhattan City ft Inter-urba- n Railway company of Manhattan, Kan., who recently scrapped its heavy electric can and equipment and is now operating four auto railway cars, A few yean ago the idea of operating a motor truck on rails would have been laughed at; yet the chassis for these ears are the same as the chasms g used three ton trackf-with the exception of those changes which axe necessary to fit the trucks for rail service. These can are operating on the same rails over which the electric ean formerly operated, and according to ths same schedules. - fro-standin- Co6t Excessive. The excessive eost of operating the heavy electnc ean for a patronage which has decreased considerably since the war was the deciding reason which influenced officials of the Manhattan City ft Interurban Bailway company into buying lighter equipment. It eost them between 40 and 50 cents per mils to operate electric ears, and they give 'the public just as good service now at a cost of about 15 cents per mile. But they gained more than simply a reduction an operating coats by install ing motor equipment; they reduced their number of employees, one man operating a car instead of two; they eliminated the expense involved la the operation of a power plant and three substations; they are able to operate their motor equipment with less noise and less annoyance to the public; they reduced their cost of maintaining their right of way, the new equipment being much lighter and less destructive to the rails than the heavy electric cars; they reduced the liability of damage suits resulting from accidents, which were quite frequent when the electric cars jumped the tracks. Besides all of these advantages, this company has done its bit toward beautifying Manhattan through the removal of overhead trol ley wires and poles from the street. Bach car provides a seating capacity of thirty-twpersons and a space for luggage. The cars are well finished inside and afford great comfort to pas-th- e other features of sengers. Borne of the cars are as follows: rewheelbase, verse gears, which enable the cars to as in reverse fast aa they will go go forward; locomotive type electric starting and lighting devices; heating systems which utilize the heat from the motor exhaust: entrance and exit near the front of the ear, with the door operated by the driver. In addition to the rail cars, they operate one bne on the highways between Junction City and Fort Biley as a feeder to their interurban lino. This bus looks somewhat similar to ths rail cars, having ths same kind of body. The weight of the chassis in each ease is 7200 pounds, as compared to 60,000 pounds, which is the weight of ths heavy and noisy electric can. The two cars operating on the city lines average about ninety-fiv- e tiules each per day, and 500 stops each per day, while the two Cars in interurban service average 150 miles each per day and about 250 stops each. o d h high-spee- d Grader Negotiated. Both in the city and on the interurban line between Manhattan and Junction Citv there are many steep grades and sharp curves in the tracks.
