This construction is employed tokeep the bearing round and prevent distortion when thecap is drawn up tight. Connecting rod bearings meas-ure 2% x 2% in. and the bearing cap is held on by two*2 in. nickel steel bolts. This model differs from the lai-ger Midwest engines inthat it has a two-bearing, counter-balanced are bolted to the shaft with nickel steelbolts, riveted over, and dowelled bushings where

This model differs from the lai-ger Midwest engines inthat it has a two-bearing, counter-balanced are bolted to the shaft with nickel steelbolts, riveted over, and dowelled bushings where the coun-ter-weights come in contact with the shaft. The frontcrankshaft bearing is 22 by 2a4 in. and the rear crank-shaft bearing, 22x35 1G in. The same force feed system of lubrication is employedon this model as on the larger type. The geared oil pumpis of the self-priming type and has a capacity of 1 7 10gal. per min. at 1000 Oil is drawn from the lower February 3, 1921 AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRIES THE AUTOMOBILE 205. Front elevation of chassis pan, which has a capacity of 2*4 gal. A plunger con-trolled by the vacuum of the manifold regulates the oilflow in relation to the actual load on the engine. Thisallows ample lubrication for full load and prevents ex-cess oiling at light or medium loads. Cooling is effected by a radiator with a continuousfin and tube type core. The pressed steel radiator shell ismounted on leather pads to absorb vibration. Water iscirculated by a pump having a capacity of 18 gal. per 1000 and the air is drawn through the radiatorby an 18 in. fan, driven by a 2 in. flat belt. The Remysystem of battery ignition is employed, together with aRemy generator and starting motor and an Exide truckbattery. A Stromberg carbureter with hot air stove at-tachment and choker controlled from the instrument boardis used. Gasoline is carried in a 12 gal. tank in the is transmitted through a single drive plate clutchand a Brown-Lipe Model 30 t
