Local Automobile Club forms stock plan for clubhouse and road logging
The San Antonio Automobile Club met in the Real Estate exchange to chart a future clubhouse funded by stock subscriptions. President Fielding urged forming a stock company to build a $5000 clubhouse on the loops, with rent at 10 percent return and a purchase option. Subscriptions quickly topped $1000 as members pledged to recruit more. A committee was named to sell remaining stock, and a gold medal prize was offered for the largest new member list by Monday. The group also approved logging county roads with Goodrich Tire Company and called volunteers to survey unlogged routes from the city.
