U. OF IDAHO DEAN RHAME, N. D., Aug. 5. )-John R. Dyer, dean of the University of Idaho, southern branch.' died ' here last 'night from Injuries received In an automobile accident between Mar marth and Rhame. Mrs. Dyer and their two sons will recover. Dean Dyer suffered a fractured skull and collar bone when his wife lost control of their car after a grass hopper struck her In the eye. We did not Invent' the 8-cylinder car. . VThat ve did was to make it possible for the average family to own one. It is not the number of cylinders that is new to ns. Be have Bade motors with every number of cylinders now in use, from 4 to 12 and experimentally up to 24. We early settled on the "4" as most pratytieal. for that time, and the "4" became standard all over the world. . When motoring conditions in this' country permitted a step forward, we considered what form the engine should take. Convinced that cylinders in multiples of four offered the best results, we decided that our next step must be an "8". All our research and experience favored this rather than any intermediate number of cylinders. Up to that time the "8" had always been a big engine, a costly motor for the rich. Its price was high. It was expensive to operate. But that was because it was designed for use only in heavy, high-priced cars. It had never been adapted to lighter cars. Before the "8" could be put within reach of the average purchaser, we had to find a way to build it at low cost. We have done that. Our Ford V-8 is in the price class of our "4" It is not more expensive to operate. In size and weight our V-8 engine v is suitable to our medium-size car. It gives you 80 horsepower built up from the impulses of eight small cylinders. The newness of the "8" to the majority of American car drivers is clearly shown by the question, "But isn't it more expensive to run?" Everyone would prefer an "8" but they reason that 2 times 4 is 8; and they think that an .B8" must require more fuel than a "4". This is not the fact. It is not the number of cylinders, but the weight of the car and the efficiency of the engine that determine the quantity of fuel used. It stands to reason that if we had not mastered Price and Economy we never could have offered the Ford V-8 in the low-price car field. We have to build a car that has everything a car ought to have, and that people can afford to buy. The V-8 is the coming car for the majority of American drivers. As always, we have done the pioneer work. It will be only a short time until motor manufacturing practice will follow the trail we have blazed. August 4, 1933 PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. B.
