which the Airflow dosign eliminates "wind-drag" or
auction, one of the biRest factors in wasting power
and fuel in a car of ordinary design, features a motion
picture prepared by Chrysler for its dealers. This
picture Hhows in slow-motion how a column of smoke
intentionally generated in the cngino and sent out

It is this absence of air disturbance that helps to give
the Airflow car its exceptionally high gasoline mile

averaged 18. 1 miles to the gallon. It also was a factor

British Speed Ace
Will Attempt Stock
Car Record Monday
Sir Malcolm Campbell, BrUUh
speed king, now at Day ton a Beach.
Florida, preparing for his attempts
at new world's records with his fin
ned and winged bluebird automobile
has announced that he wilt attempt
to break all class C stock car records
on Monday, February 1 1, according
to a wire received here today by c.
W. Ellis, sales supervisor for the
Gllmore Oil company In southern
Oregon.
The wire stated that Sir Malcolm's
attempts to establish new stock car
records will be made over the same
course that he will cover on hl3
Bluebird record run. For the pur
pose he has selected a leading Amer
ican car, a standard stock Hudson
eight-cylinder sedan, equipped wUh
an automatic gearshift. The car will
carry full equipment as required by
the A. A. A. under whose supervision
the run will be made.
v Preliminary tests of motor fuels
prompted Campbell to select a Cali
fornia gasoline for these Important
record attempts. Gllmore Red Lion
gasoline and Lion Head motor oil
has been shipped to Campbell, and
will be used by him to drive the
powerful Hudson over the sands of
Day ton a at speeds well over curre.it
records, even though the beach is
several miles slower than other rec
ord courses.
The motor world la looking on the
Campbell run as a real test of car
and fuel. Speed authorities, Hudson
officials, Gllmore and Campbell are
confident that with this equipment
some outstanding records willbe set
next Monday.

Oraham has this vear entered th-i
low price field with a small car in
direct competition with the otner
manufacturers. This small car is a
Oraham through and through. It has
all of the well known features that
have been embodied In all of the
latest Graham cars such as bap Jo
frame, full length water Jackets, out
board springs, and hydraulic brakes
Though this new car has only sixty
horsepower It Is said that It his
smazlng performance and exceptionai
economy. We are told that these cars
have the same smart Interiors the
larger cars have, and which are cor-
i talniy very good looking. A feature
j about these cars that has always ap
: pealed to us was their apparent read
ability. Very evidently this Is ob
tained by their wide tread and out
board springs. These new Grahams
are to arrive this wek-end and I am
very anxious to see the actual cars.
The new "Special" :s in Med ford now.
however, and Is attracting a lot of
attention on Medford streets.
The new Master DeLuxe Chevro
let have made a number of Im
provements over last year's car. For
Instance, this year they have the now
famous "turret top" which General
Motors has introduced along with a
counter-balanced crankshaft, positive
pressure oiling system, downdraft car
buretlon and knee-action. The wheel
base has also been Increased this
year and the whole appearance of
the car, though it Is still distinctly
Chevrolet, has been greatly Improved
We believe that their coupe models
are especially attractive because of
the new treatment of lines around
the passenger compartments a-.id
down the back, and of course the
"turret top" adds considerably to
their appearance.
A feature of the new Plymouth
which I have never mentioned Is
their "calibrated Ignition." This Is
an entirely new feature which makes
It possible to get maximum perform
ance from any type of fuel, and still
not have the so-called "ping" whlcn
has formerly been common In cars
with high compression heads. Thin
Is especially notlceaole when the oar
is pulling hard and the motor is
somewhat taxed. This "calibrated ig
nition," Recording to salesmen, should
add considerably to the economy of
the car.

of the New Ford V-8
We would be glad to demonstrate this New Ford V-8
Double Duty Truck to you and show how it will handle
your trucking problem.
AT JTO CO
The entirely different work for
which the new Ford V-8 double duty
truck may be used is being demon
strated In Medford by the recent
sales of Ford trucks to the Texas
Oil company and Fluhrer's Bakeries,
according to C. E. Gates of the C. E
Gates Auto company.

used for heavy duty work. It carries
1000 gallons of Texaco gasoline whicn
weighs four tons. The truck pur
chased by Fluhrer's Bakeries is used
for high speed highway work. Tai
truck carries a light load of 1500
pounds.
Mr. Gates says the efficient oper
ation of the two trucks proves that
the new Ford V-8 Is adapted a:
all kinds of work.
