Auto no Mystery
To Modem Girls
-
They're Learning all of
- Angles; Class Held,
Whittier School
. Do men. know any more about
automobiles than women?
"If they do, the time is coming
when they won't. Judging from
a movement now under way in
certain public schools, and des
tined to spread.
Just as women have qualified
in recent years as Toters and
managers of business and profes
sional establishments, they are
now starting seriously ; to learn
what's going on when you sit be-
nind the wheel and drive.
In one of the first exclusively-
feminine automovite classes in
America, 70 young women are
now devoting an hour each day,
at Whittier Union high school.
Whittier, Calif., to learning all
about the intricacies ot modern
cars, according to information
reaching C. A. Miier, local man
ager for General Petroleum cor
poration, marketers of Mobilgas,
who says:
"When a girf drives an auto
mobile, what does she do? That's
the question these young women
are now qualified to answer.
Learn of Engines
"Through a course outlined by
D. H. Reamy, head of the school's
department of industrial arts, the
young ladies are being instructed
by Clyde Irwin and George Cut
ler on the construction and oper
ation of the motor, electrical and
fuel systems; how power is
transmitted to the rear wheels;
how brakes are built and oper
ated; how tires are kept in good
condition (yes, they actually have
to change them); how to care
for the inside and outside of the
body; how the steering mechan
ism operates; what the traffic
regulations and saft driving rules
are; and the functions and. Im
portance of modern lubricants.
"Using a combustion analyzer
tor practical demonstration. J. D.
Arden. automotive specialist, who
operates a General Petroleum Mo
bilgas and Mobiloil station at
Whittier, recently lectured to the
class on present day 'High Com
pression Motors and Fuels.'
"The girls have all the an
swers, according to Arden, if one
wishes to know the mechanical
whys and wherefores of our mod
ern miracle, the automobile."
