The OREGON STATESMAN. Salem, Oregon, Sunday Morning, June 2, 1935 PAGE THREE BONESTEELES WILL SELL STIJDEDf.KERS Firm Long in Business Here Resumes Line Which One Member Had Handled Studebaker - representation in Salem, Marion and Polk counties, has been taken over by Bone steele Bros., Inc.;- automobile dealers in Salem since 1917, oper ating the modern garage at the corner of Cbenteketa and Liberty streets. Since .1917 until re cently, the family of "Bonesteele h8s been associated constantly' with Dodge products here, but the studebaker is an old standby for Wallace Bonesteele who in 1927 took over the Marion garage and sold Studebakers from that time until 1931. Russell Bonesteele, the other firm member, was as sociated with his father, the late II. F. Bonesteel, and his brother, Ernest Bonesteele, now located in Longview, Washington, in the au tomobile business for many years "We are happy to get the New Studebaker line of quality cars," raid Wallace Bonesteele. "Under the new organization, Studebaker is offering remarkable values in three liaes the Dictator, six cyl inder; Commander eight; and President eight models. Newj en gineering design, particularly planar, individual wheel suspens ion make the Studebaker out standing in easy-ride quality and flexibility in traffic." "A Studebaker for just a lit tle more than the lowest priced cars is a fact worthy of investi gation. Yes, we mean the "very lowest priced car when we make this statement," said Russell Bonesteele. "To realize that. Studebaker has for years con stantly been one of the first ten in the sales ladder and has now in vaded the low-priced field with quality of construction found for merly only on cars much higher priced is noteworthy. "The Studebaker cars, all mod els, are equipped with' such vital ly important features as genuine Lockheed Hydraulic brakes, steel rein forced-by-steel bodies, and tremendously strong chassis and frames. Every sedan model is a six passenger car with ample leg room and plenty of width for real comfort and that is something vir tually all cars lacked heretofore. "Mechanically the Studebaker motors are modern to the nth de gree gauging by standards such as full-length water t jacketing, by pass motor cooling, four ring pis tons, complete pressure lubrica tion, air-cooled stepped-up genera tors, large timken bearings, auto matic choke control, automatic spark control, automatic idling control, and a host of other desir able features, marks of quality not always found at the low price of Studebaker." The three Bonesteele Brothers accompanied by members of their organization including, Charles Denham, Al Youngblood, Ed Her man, Wallace Monson, John White, Earl Williams and A. J. Shumaker, attended the meeting in Portland last Monday evening which was given in honor of the president of the Studebaker cor poration, Paul G. Hoffman. Mr. Hoffman assured all the dealers present at this meeting that the 83 year old Studebaker organization was now completely reorganized and that the company is in unusual financial condition with low capitalization and ample cash. He stated that the Stude baker would continue to produce a quality car and were out after a reasonable sales volume this year. Mr. Hoffman stated that an ad vertising appropriation of $2,000, 000 had been set aside for nation al advertising. Bonesteele Bros, have taken de livery of Studebaker models and offer complete sales and service. They will maintain the same force and continue to give service on the Dodge cars as they have a complete stock of parts.

TIRES SUBMERGED 11 115 ID 1 Goodrich dealers everywhere are paging Mr. Ripley of "Believe it or not" fame, with a discovery that four Goodrich tires, built In 1921, still contained air after be ing submerged in water for more than tea years. The. discovery - was made when an old automobile was dragg-1 from the bottom of the Hudson river channel near New York city where it had been submerged since 1924. Although rims and wire wheels were almost entirely rusted away, the tires were remarkably pre served and seemed to have suf ficient pressure for actual road service, observers reported to The JB. Jr. Goodrich company. Serial numbers on the tires shoed that they had been manu factured in 1921. "It is hard to believe that tires could hold up under such a test," declared Walter Zosel, manager tu mo iiuuuricii cmveriowa store at 198 South Commercial street, "but it Is true nevertheless." "How long ago the automobile was submerged under water is better realized when it is recalled that at that time the people were talking about the Leopold ond Loeb case and the Prince of Wales' visit to the United States," Zosel said. "A lot of water has gone over the dam since then "Goodrich tire developments have been so rapid since," he added, "that the present endur ance and safety qualities are al most unbelievable in comparison. The new . Goodrich life-saver Golden Ply is three times safer from blowouts and the life of the tire today has been extended far beyond what it was ten years ago." Rose Festival association is" to sponsore the train's dedication. Hlllman Lueddemann, president of the festival, will be chairman o the day. W. A. Harriman, of New York, chairman of the board ' of direc tors of the Union Pacific System, will - personally present the train to the Pacific northwest, with Jo seph K; Carson, Jr., mayor ot Portland, and Governor Charles H.
