EROY CATCHING MOTOR CO. 125 N. ROSE PHONE 43S ROSEBURG, ORE SETS H PIES Two equally striking moves by Willys-Overland have marked the start of this year. The sensational price drop on the Whippet which was announced early In January and the introduction of a third model to the Willys-Knight line of six cylinder cars, at the lowest price ever set on any Willya Knight have focused attention en this organization. The sales records achieved by the Whippet since the present prices were announced have been outstanding in their relation to Keneral motor car sales In the low price range. The reception of the "Willys Knight Standard Six, which wns announced nationally during the middle of February, has resulted In a heavy demand for this car on the part of thousands of motor car buyers who find In the low prices set on this model, their first opportunity to buy a car built by Willys-Overland with a Knight sleeve valve motor. In hath the low priced Whippet and the recent . addition to the WIIlys-Knlght HnG, distinctive fea tures of design and equipment are offered. The Whippet is featured by perfected body lines - and full equipment. - - The Willys-Knight Standard Six Is featured by an unusual amount of room in a car of its price, by novel creations in body lines and body decorations and through the use of a non-breakable steering wheel, foot control of tho head lights and dimmers and a new and highly decorative Instrument board panel. The rapid increase In Willys- Knight sales over the country which followed the entrance of Willys-Overland In the six cylin der type of power plant using a ; Knight sleeve valve motor, three j years ago has resulted in a demand i for this type of automobile in a nrlce ranEe below Hint of the WIIlys-Knlght Special Six and tho WIIIvs-Knlght Great Six. This demand is met by the new Standard Six In the Willys Knight line. A notable Indication of what Is being done In the construction of Knight sleeve valve power plants recently, Is shown in the fact Hint 26 European manufacturers have come to this type of engine fol lowing the expiration of the Knight patents in Europe. Up to the ex piration of those patents In Eu rope, there were only a few mak ers licensed- to manufacture a Knight sleeve valvo motor. Present builders Include the makers of the highost priced auto- motmes in the world ,nnd tl;e Knight sleeve valve motor ' has boon the accredited . power plarjt for the official cars of European nobility for many years. a uuarterVLiii Overwhelming 5f- ion- The COACH $ IS I IKE Full evidence that tho consump tion of gasoline 13 not on the do cllno Is shown by the statements covering sales of this 'conm.odi.y by the various dealers wlihm tho state and the collection of the gasoline tax during the past sev eral years.

Nine million people crowded Chevrolet salesrooms the first three days following its presentation! Thousands of retail deliveries have been . made every day since! A quarter million of these new cars are now on the road! And if you see and drive this great new car you can quickly sense why its tremen. dous popularity is increasing every day.' It ii smoother and more powerful because its improved valve-in-head motor ' Incorporates numerous engineering achievements. It is more beautiful and .' more comfortable because the fashion, ably styled new Fisher bodies are longer, lower and supported on semi-elliptic springs 84 as long as the wheelbase. It is easier to drive because the worm and gear steering mechanism is fitted with ball ' bearings throughout. And it sells for new low prices made possible by the econo-" mies of tremendous volume production which last year made Chevrolet the world's largest builder of automobiles. Come in today.

The task has been accomplished in motors specifically designed for anti-knock gasolines, but the Hud son design is intended -for any standard or even sub-standard fuel. High Compression Obtained With the new patented design Hudson motors now are built with a compression ratio of nearly 6 to 1 or 20 per cent above the aver age with correspondingly high standards of acceleration, fuel economy nnd power. The company engineers say that it is practically Impossible to make the motor knock under even the most ad vorso operating conditions. The motor Is described as the liveliest, most powerful, and economical Hudson has ever built. In the patented P-Hoad design, tho Intake vnlve Is located in the head of the motor and the exhaust valve at tha side. In a way. tho motor is valve-in-head as to intake nnd IMlead design as to exhaust. Tho intake valve opens to admit fuel In a location Just above the exhoust valve. Hence, it is stated, the incoming fuel is drawn direct ly over the exhaust valve with a dual effect. First, all "wet" par ticles of fuel are subjected to the heat of the exhaust valve and chamber, which tends to vaporise them and make them fit for clean and speedy combustion. Secondly. the exhaust valve Is subjected to enoueh of this cooling action that It never becomes excessively overheated. Avoid Knocking Cause Very hot exhanst valves have lone been recognized as one of the chief causes of pre-ignlllon or knocking In high compression motors. Hudson engineers have succeeded at once In moderating the valve temperature and at t'ie same time making it serve the purpose of a "hot" snot. The. fuel charge enters the motor so eaeiiv and exhausts so cleanly that only moderate-size valves are used Another important feature of the patented arrangement is tho loca tion of the spark plug. This Is at the extreme s'de of the combus Hon chamber. The effect M this Is thnt the first Intense explosion of the fuel charge Is confined to the small space around the valves. By the time the combustion has ex tended Into the cylinder proper, the action fs pushing Instead of an explosive one. This results in especially smooth operation The Essex System The hew patent which was ob tained after several months' study by the TJ; S. patent off ice covers all these and other arrangements,' each In .relation to and in combi nation with nil others." The compression ratlo made possible about 6 to I is prac tically the'-Bame as that used -in the smaller Essex motor, where an L-Head design has been found quite satisfactory.
