RUTH LAW USES SUPER SIX FOR FLIGHT ON GROUND

[[image]]

Famous aviatrix, holder of the American long distance record, who will thrill the West Michigan State fair crowds next week, drives the Hudson speedster when not on the wing. The picture shows the daring little airwoman in her car with the Curtiss biplane in which she made the Chicago-to-New York flight as a background. L. E. Colgrove has arranged to supply her with a Super Six speedster while in the city.

High in the air, with her very life hinging ((hanging)) upon the efficient performance of the gasoline engine driving her plane, intrepid little Ruth Law gained her knowledge of motors in the school of grim experience where mistakes usually spell death. And when the daring aviatrix who will thrill thousands with her flights over the West Michigan State fairgrounds next week, chose the famous balanced super six motor for her own car Hudson engineers felt justified in rejoicing over such a convinicng ((convincing)) tribute from an expert, especially since the indorsement carries with it, the obvi-one suggestion that America's premier bird woman finds the Hudson offers the nearest approach to actual flying to be had on the ground. 
Probably no one is better able to realize the destructive effect of excessive vibration than the aviator. Nearly every one knows now that the life off the airplane motor is measured in hours, but not every one knows this is due chiefly to vibration. And so it was not so extraordinary that Miss Law in casting about for the ideal automobile was favorably impressed by the inherently balanced super six motor. Balance in the super six is not confined to the motor. The Hudson chassis, too, is correctly balanced upon a scientific spring suspension and with the silent, resistless power of the comparatively small motor goes a riding quality that many a passenger has likened to the flight of an airplane.
The ease of handing that appeals to the woman driver is no less an appeal to the little bird woman who daily takes her life in her hands. Those who marvel at the steel cold nerve of the girl and the sheer courage that carries her successfully through loops and dips, nose and tail dives, side slips and every evolution attempted by the most skilled and daring airplane pilots, do not stop to consider that the little aviatrix cannot always be keyed up to the high nerve tension that alone means safety in flight. And when she alights, it is with a sigh of relief that she settles back in the seat of her Super-Six speedster and finds relaxation in the ease with which the tremendous energy of its silent motor and the almost limitless speed of the car may be directed and controlled.
The picture shows Miss Law in her own Super-Six with the Curtiss biplane which carried her on the memorable Chicago to New York flight in the immediate background. It is probable she will not use this plane in her exhibition flights here. Instead she will have one of the big military tractors from the Curtiss shops, capable of terrific speed and with a climbing ability only second to the fast scout and fighting triplanes. It is probable she will bring her own Hudson Super-Six to Grand Rapids, but she will not be without a car even if she leaves it at home. L. E. Colgrove, western Michigan Hudson distributer, has invited Mis Law to make use of his own speedster, during her stay in the city.
