Kenyon, director of Chrys ler service. In the April Issue o Mi "Chrysler News," asks how many automobile owners give proper thought to having the car checked I over as the summer season nears. so that t hey know It Is In tiptop condition? Hi implied answer to his own query Is that there are de cidedly fewer than there should be. Vet there was a time when things were otherwise, he Inti mate: "In days gone by. when automobiles were stored fur the winter because It wasn't good form to use them during the winter months, great rare was taken in t le spring to see that they were thoroughly overhauled and every thing put in A -1 shape. hut, be cause ears ure used all during the winter months now. owners are sometimes prone to forget that the bus requires a little 'spring tonic' to make it operate its best. "Previous maintenance Is the remedy for the present neglect of spring tuning-up for automobiles. Chrysler standardized maintenance system assures Chrysler owners continued satisfaction with t heli cal's at all times and Is particu larly advantageous for spring ad justments. If there Is need for any reconditioning work after hard winter use. have a little overhaul lug done now rather than to take a chance on some annoyance, how ever slight, during the height of the happy summer motoring season." v. r '--ySSm Again we behold the miracle of spring.

Oakland From Months Total 100,000 Cars With nn April schedule calling for 7500 more Oakland ami Pontiac sixes than during April of 1 1J7. the Oakland Motor Car company Is es tablishing a production record of nearly I uo.ooo ears for the first four months of the year. This Oalcland-Ponlino production represents an increase of X5 per cent over the fiS.liri? automobiles which the company built during the corresponding period of last year. Kach of the four months of this year saw t hi- company establish a new On Ulniid-I'nntluc production record. Twice dining February it was found necessary to Increase the production schedule ami the con tinuing influx of orders from the company's big dealer organization has resulted in equal prosperity dining March and April. The schedule Increases during 1'Vbruary were rendered possible principally through the opening of a third production lim In the Pmi llae six factory, llih production was maintained In March despite the Tact that the Oakland six fac tory was closed timing the last week of the month to permit equip ment to be moved from the old Oakland assembly building to the new $;i.iMMi.nno assembly structure which started producing cars on April 2. NEW WHIPPET SIX AT REDUCED PRICES "The lowest priced six-cylinder car in the world," was announced by John N. Willys, president of the Willys-Overland Co., Thursday. '"This new car is equipped with a highly developed upwer plant that already has flashed it lo a new speed and endurance record for cars of its size, in a 4-hour grind on the Indianapolis speedway under the official observation of the Hoosicr .Motor club. "This car is designated as the new Whippet Six and is powered with a highly developed engine which features for the first time in the history of the light six field, a seven-hearing crankshaft. Other features which are included In the new ear will set u new trend for quality, comfort, speed, economy anil engineering as did the four cylinder Whippet in the light four field. "Just as the Whippet hturlcd the trend toward four-wheel brakes among the light four-cylinder cars, the new Whippet Six will make in evitable the seven -bearing crank shaft among tlm light sixes. This marks a new trend in quality con struction among the lower priced sixes since no other car in or near the price range of the new Whip pet Six Is so equipped, and I be lieve that within the fu-xt year or two all six-cylinder engines will incorporate this type of construc tion which is necessary to the pro perly running si-cylinder engine. "This new car will present many features of design and construction which are distinct improvements upon present construction In the light six field and the price is the lowest ever made by Willys-Overland in the six-cylinder classifica tion. This Indicates that the Whip pet Six will prove as sensational as the price slash on tile Whippet l'our a short time ago. 'The new Whippet Six utilizes many of the principles which are generally associated only with cars selling in higher price fields. These, In addition to the seven beaiing crankshaft and full force feed lubrication, will include silent timing chain, unusually long con necting rials to eliminate excessive side thrust at high speeds. Nelson type invar-strut pistons and other features. All motor parts will be of the finest materials and oversize in dimensions, to assure long life and continuous high performance rating. "In the details of chassis con struction, special attention has been devoted to spring equipment, car balance, and low suspension of weight to provide greater road stability. Four-wheel brakes are standard equipment. "In the endurance and sustained speeil test on the Indianapolis .speedway the Whippet Six travel ed continuously for IM hours and covered I :t"i7 miles in f 1 -IQ min utes for an average of r(!.5J miles an hour. In another speed test for "a mib'H the Whippet Six averaged (ij miles per haul. The new Whippet Six is offered lu five body types Including coach, licdan, coupe, touring and roadster. These cars are now on display in the show room of the Treichler .Motor Co., In this city. American Hens Regain Supremacy Over Rivals SANDER Aeronautical School, Inc.
