Humboldt man Adolph Clasz introduces a hub claimed to strengthen wheels beyond air filled pneumatic tires. A rubber shoe may render the wheel noiseless, with three years of study backing the claim. If patented and manufactured, it could revolutionize the automobile industry by reducing upkeep and inner tube costs.
