Toledo, O., Aug 17.—An unusual
economy run has just been finished
by a stock Overiand car, model 4.
which was driven across the contin-
ent, a total of 3.411 miles from New
York to San Francisco, with an ev-
eraee of 27.1 miles to the gallon.
The unique feature of the run is
that the car was handled by twenty-
five different drivers. It was relay-
ed across the continent by Overland
distributors starting at midnight
July 18 and arriving 179 hours later,
or approximately days. Eleven
states were crossed during the run
fend all sorts of roads encountered. '
The car was driven night and day '
eing stopped only for the refilling of
the gasoline tank and change of
drivers.
D^fferet Averages 'n Various sections
One of the interesting features of
the run was the variation In perform-
ance along different parts of the I ~
route. From Pittsburg. Pa., to Lima i *
Ohio, the car averaged 2S.7 mile? *
per gal. To Cedar Rapids. Iowa. I *
over sand, gravel and ordinary dirt' *
,-oads the average was 30.4. From
North Platte. Neb., to Cheyenne.
Wyo.. a stretch of very bad. rough
roads, the average was S3.1. The
poorest economy was found in the
state of Nevada, because of the ter-
rific grade encountered. During
this part of the trip, the average was
26 miles per gal. From Reno. Nev. to
San Francisco, against a strong head
wind, the average of 32.2 miles was
maintained. —Buck Thflrel Over-
