No man waits until he is three feet behind a car to honk a warn ing that he intends to pass. When a motor "knocks" it needs overhauling. The same can be said about man. "Adoption of the multi-range gear shift by Chrysler on its new "77" and "70" models, as well as the Imperial series, indicates that another objective which, has lung commanded the attention of auto motive engineering a transmis- iiii.i "I"'" wiiii wiuer ami more 1 icMiiie A charming young- lady named ! "p,"f;!'n".'"ce 'Tl'", r ""W n.An I practical now, but that the future trend in designing will undoubted- ly be in this direction," aecording to Chrysler engineers, who further state ' their new gear shift permits the use of a rear axle witu lower gear ratios eliminating the neces sity of a greatly enlarged engine or compromises between the trans mission ratio and rear axle ratio, required in previous conventional design?." "It has been long recognized that the slower the operation of the engine, propeller shaft and the other rotating parts back to the rear axle, the. better will be the performance of the car from a standpoint of fuel economy and re duced vibration and wear and tear," says Fred M. Zeder. vice president in charge of engineering. "Some conception may be gained of the results that are achieved with this advanced type of gvn r shift in the Chrysler '77', which makes -5(ifc revolutions while trav eling one mile in the highest gear, or 'speed range. Kngnies in cars with ordinary transmissions will turn over from 7!t to t 4 0 more times while covering the same dis tance. "An attractive feature of the multi-miiKO gear shift is that it jdoes not compel the mutorist to I learn new shifting system.

Copyright, Moss Feature Syndicate Large Majority of Stolen Cars Are Recovered Ninety-three per cent of all cars stolen in li'28 were recovered and it is evident that the automobile thief is turning his M tent ion to frome more prof la bio mans of crime, says the American Auto mobile Association, f The national motoring body be lieves that the high percentage of stolen cars recovered is directly attributed to the Dyer act, which makes it a federal offense to move a stolen automobile across the nute line, as well as to the im proved locking devices. Klv years ago, only 83 per cent . of the cars falling into the hands! of thieves were recovered and a1 ten per cent Kain in five years ' ncellent progress. Figures from "6 cities reported to the A.A.A.i in 1!2S revealed that 71.-46 c;.is were stolen and 69,1?6 were re covered, j Th improved Wkine device plucd on automobiles has a hen a lars;e factor in reducing the number of cars stolen.
