Macauley to Become President of Packard
Alvan Macauley, Packard vice president and general manager, will be named president by the board at President Henry B. Joy’s request. Macauley, 44, now leads 12,0400 workers and a $30,000,000 asset base, while Joy remains chairman and guiding force. Joy, a Detroit booster, helped move Packard from Warren, Ohio, in 1899 and shapes US auto industry policy. Macauley’s career spans National Cash Register, Burroughs, and Packard, with a noted loyalty pledge for patriotic citizenship. He emphasizes Americanization in promotions, a policy later echoed nationwide.

It climbed a brutal fifty five percent grade hill, won the relay on speed, and placed in the quick get-away, outperforming higher priced rivals and even prompting a spectator to buy the winning car on the grounds.

Don’t do vehicle checks before starting engine
Motor Donts warn drivers to inspect all car parts and engine before starting. Avoid loose nuts and bolts, dirt and oil buildup, improper tools, and dismantling unless needed. Do not drive with defective wheels, leaks, or strange noises and protect the car from wind and dust.
Maintenance Rules for Early Cars and Batteries
Practical car care tips warn against overfilling or overextending use. Keep bearings oiled, avoid oil on wires, keep spark plug wires away when powered, clean sparking plugs instead of discarding, avoid over-tightening plugs, use graphite on threads, thaw frosted batteries before disposal, never leave battery or gasoline switch on when idle, and limit cells in a set to prevent coil damage.
