1335 OLDSIVlOBILE New Spring Discovery for Next Year's Cars
The new 1B38 01lmoblle has ar
rived In Medford and I on display
at the J. J. Osenbrug salesrooms,
located at 132 South Riverside.
"The new Oldsmoblle line for
1J3S," ald Mr. Oecnbn(e, "1 rep
resentative of Oldsmoblle's belief that
the public Is entitled to all that ti
new and better. Rather than remove
from Us products features that have
proved their worth and desirability
In millions of miles of service. Olds
mobile has elected to keep these feat
urea, and add all the latest Import
ant engineering advancements.
"For example." Mr. Osenbrucge
continued. "Oldsmoblle la retalulat
auch features as knee-action wheelj,
uper-hydraullc brnkcs, ride stablll
fjer, center-control steering., and all
allent syncro-mesh (rear shifting.
"fn addition to these and many
othera time proved fundamentals of
design." said Mr. Oscnbnyjge. "the
135 Oldsmobllea offer the purchaser
that greatest of all body advance
ments since the Introduction of the
closed car. This Is the new solid
teel 'turret top' body by Fisher, with
steel above, stsel below, and steel al!
around for the extra safety of drlvor
and passengers. The new top, a a'.n
flo piece of seamless steel built
Integral with the body proper, con
tribute. Importantly to the advanced
new streamline beauty which charac
terizes the new Oldsmoblles."
"it Is Important, too, to the buyer
seeking the maximum for his money,
that tile new Oldsmoblle sixes and
eights are larger, more powerful and
even more economical. The wheelbase
of the six has been Increased to 116
Inohes. The eight la Increased to 121
Inches. An Idea of the roominess may
toe gained from the fact that the
front seat In the six Is now three
Inches wider than that In last year's
Ight."
a
m
X REVOLUTIONARY type of
Heel that has enabled automobile
mginccrs to develop new tapered-leaf
ipringi or the 1935 Plymouth, has been
perfected In Detroit, It was revealed
today.
The new spring material Is called
Mola steel. It Is a carbon molybdenum
steel, combining unusual flexibility with
great tensile strength.
With the development of Mola steel,
automotive engineers were able for the
first time to create a short serine that
ts soft and resilient, as well as durable.
The metal produces a spring leaf that
can be used thin enough to give the re
quired flexibility.
The above picture shows the new
springs and the front-and side-sway
eliminator or ride-stabilizer. The
springs have the unusual characteristic
of two main leaves, each 'of which Is
wrapped around the shackle bolt. The
lower leaf is segmented at the center
to allow for elongation. The leaves are
tapered down at the ends, so that more
area comes lirto contact with the adjoin
ing leaves.
The entire weight of the car has been-re-distributed.
It Is the same on both
axles now, whereas previously the rear
axle supported 60 percent and the front
axle 40 percent. Front end bounce is
controlled by new double-action shock
absorbers, which definitely add to the
comfort of rear seat passengers. The
side-sway eliminator is a torsion bar
which acts as a third spring when it is
needed to keep the car on an even
keel..
THE AUTO WAY
(continued from pagt 6)
A new 1935 Chrysler Airflow 8 ee
dan arrived In Med ford yesterday,
driven from Portland by H. P. Lano
of Armstrong Motors Inc., Chrysler
and Plymouth dealers In Medford
and Klamath Falls.
This new Airflow Is equipped with
the famous Chrysler overdrive which
gives the car five speed ahead In
stead of the usual three speeds.
. Mr. Lango says: "This Is the finest
motor car I have ever driven and It
gives one the nearest aenwitton to
flying of any automobile built. The
new Chrysler overdrive transmission
Is the only aucceaful overdrive ever
built In the United States. This new
device g!es the car a much greater
gas mileage and it prolongs the life
of the motor as much as 40 per cent."
Ose Mall Tribune want ads
distinctive hardware, and tv new dast
board.
The new Studebalcer which Is now
in town has a new ype of Indepen
dent Planar Wheel Suspension which
employs the transverse springs In an
entirely new way. This suspension Is
coupled with automatic ride control
shock absorbers and It practically
abolishes side-sway and road bumps.
The new car has many improvements
such as automatic choke, automatic
spark control, and new direct-action
steering. The treatment of the radia
tor and hood gives the car a very
smart appearance, while the interior
is Improved by a dash board of dif
ferent design.
Back from Pa widen a Mrs. J. A
Shepherd, who has spent the last
month with her parents at Pasadena,
has returned to her home in this
city. Mr. Shepherd, of the Crater
Lake national park service, also spent
several days during the holidays in
Pasadena.
HIGH IN TRAFFIC
Statistics Issued yesterday by Ward
McReynolds, state examiner for driv
ing permits. Indicate that Jackson
county police are among the most
vigilant In the state, in that this
county ranks third, exclusive of
Multnomah, In traffic violation con
victions. Only Marlon county with 32 con
victions and Columbia county with
36 had a higher record than Jack
son. Klamath county had 8 and Jose
phine only 4. This may mean, ac
cording to McReynolds, that not as
much attention Is given in those two
counties to the small violations, such
as failure to look In the rear view
mirror In parking, signaling for
turns, and similar violations.
However, he pointed out, these lit
tle things are directly responsible
for an apalllng number of deaths In
the state each year.
Most of the failures In the tests
given for drivers permits are due to
non-attentton to these details, he
stated, and that defect, is found In
old drivers as well as new.
There were 41 licenses Issued Fri
day, and about that many yesterday.
The average for the entire state Is
between 40 and 50 a day, McReyn
olds said, and pointed out that 40
per cent of the people applying for
licenses in Oregon for the first time
are from out of state, mostly from
California.

sales manager in Oregon for the Gen
eral Petroleum corporation, was In
Medford yesterday conferring with

trict manager of the company. Mr.
