Albany Autoists Find Pit Marks ALBANY Albany automobile owners began taking closer looks at their windshields and rear windows Tuesday and many found the mysterious "glass-pox" mark on front and rear glass. In most instances the pitting occurred overnight, residents aver. The tiny pita "just weren't there before." Those who have studied the strange happenings to their ear glass agree that the pits are easily identifiable. The agents 'of the "pox" have been studied in the Bureau of Mines electro-development labo ratory here by Don Mortimore, head of the physics section. Mort imore said he had collected a number of the particles, and had viewed them under a miroesope, but was unable to draw any new conclusion. He agreed that the particles appear to be aome sort of an ash, but said a good study of them was difficult because of their amall size. When burned, the particles leave ao small a weight mass that little is left to investigate, he noted. Many of the agents will be repelled when touched by a lead pencil, but Mortimore said it could be caused by static elec tricity. He said he was unable to determine immediately how much metal was included in the particles. A car dealer, who declined use of his name, said that he felt that cars left out-of-doors 24 hours a day are more susceptible to the glass pitting since they have longer to collect the destructive ash. He also said it waa apparent that windshields on can parked overnight in a northern direction became more heavily pitted than did those parked eaat and west. The dealer also said one car owner, "very conscious of the appearance of his car, had found more than 30 pits on bis wind shield Tuesday. QUEEN ENDS CEYLON VISIT COLOMBO.

He jut settlei back in the deep, comfortable seat rests his hand on the inviting wheel looks out over the hood in the general direction of the office and starts to relax. Comes first, the ten-mile stretch in the country. If the car were standing still, it could not be smoother or softer or quieter as it loafs over the broad, winding highway. There'a only the faint sound of the wind, plus the receding trees and posts and buildings, to give him a sense of movement. Almost before it begins, it scents, the ten-mile stretch is over and a sign announces the city's limits. The soft pressure of his foot shifts from accelerator to brake and the big car settles down easily, smoothly and quickly to the prescribed speed. And then begins the real wizardry of Cadillac performance. Slop and go in and out roll and creep ... all regulated with the slightest touch ol toe and hand. Insofar as the driver it concerned, it's just as easy as the open road a little slower, of course, but just ai calm and relaxing. And maybe a little bit nicer, in one notable respect for now there are drivers all about him stealing glances at his beautiful car, and wondering who's the fortunate person whose name is on the titlel What a car for highway or street! Owners say the hours behind its wheel are among the finest hours of the day restful, relaxing and inspiring. If you haven't as yet driven t 1954 Cadillac you've been missing something wonderful! Better come in soon for the most revealing hour you ever spent behind the wheel of a motor car. DOUGLAS McKAY CHEVROLET CO. 510 North Commercial Strtet, Salem Phone 3-3175 r
