Improvements Included In the 1938 line are greater In number than they were for the 1935 models and fully as -Important to the motorist. Many of them are not as apparent at a glance and probably none of them atand out at boldly as Fisher turret top bodies, hydraulic, tripled sealed brakes or the sealed chassis of 1935, A close examination discloses that the pontlac engineers have gone thru . the 1935 chassis and bodies, feature by feature, refining thla one and per fecting that one, keeping in mind the comfort and convenience of the mo torist, and the economy, performance and safety of the car.

Thla new train, consisting of tour cars, Including a baggage car and railway nostofflee, and having seats for 92 passengers, will be the Burlington's fourth stainless steel streamliner.

COHAN FARCE AT NORMAL, PLEASES 'Seven Keys to Baldpate." latest dramatic offering of the Southern Oregon Normal school, Friday night played before a packed house tn the school auditorium at Ashland. The thriller, melodramatic farce by George M. Cohan, was received as one of the best dram talc offerings the school has ever produced. The scenery, designed and executed by the classes In play production, set off the unusual character of the play to a nicety, the plot being laid In a summer hotel high on a mountain In the dead of winter. The sound ef fects were also very good. Angus Bowmer, dramatic Instructor, was cast as William Hallowell Magee. the author, who goes to the deserted Inn to write a play In 24 hours. The unravelling of the plot, during which seven keys appear where only one was supposed to be In existence, was carried through with splendid por trayal, with Bowmer giving his usual suave performance. Bits" In the play made it an out standing hit with the big audience, particularly that played by John Harr as Peter, the hermit. He com bined exactly the right amount of native wit with simple mlndedness to make his part very convincing. Another "bit" part very well done was that of Margaret Knox, aa Myra Thornhlll. The play will be presented again on Monday, with promises being for another sellout. Lumber Imports F.hb SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 19.

WINDOW O LABS We sell window glass and will replace your broken windows reasonably Trowbridge Cab inet Works J I i I F NEW YORK, Oct. 10. W. P. Chrys ler, chairman of the board of Chrysler corporation, stated today hit for the first time In five or six years he looks for a much larger, market for auto mobiles In the higher-price fields. "The next year , for automobiles." he sad, "which begins this year two months earlier than hertofore, should be a better year for higher priced lines of cars than any year In the recent past. "This, however, will not be at the expense of the lower-priced cars. Peo ple all over the world have come to recognise the extraordinary transpor tation value obtainable in the low priced automobiles, I believe this market will continue to expand. "So much Improvement has been made in automobiles during the last few years that much of it Is tsken for granted. For example, safety of construction. A safe car with steel bodies, hydraulic brakes, low center of gravity, interlocking bodlea and frames, Is expected by the discrimi nating motor car buyer. In this field, having pioneered these essential ele ments of construction, Chrysler cor poration has gone much farther and Is now actively promoting safe, driv ing. Great strides have also been made In economy and performance. "In my Judgment, the next great est advance of this period has been in riding comfort. The Airflow de sign has admittedly established new principles of weight distribution. Thus, by moving the motor forward over the front axle and moving the passengers forward so that they ride between the axles, together with low center of gravity, you get a more perfect ride than has ever before been possible. Last year the Airflow prin ciples were reflected in cars of so called conventional design. And the result has. been a general Increase in riding comfort."i LA SALLE LINE SHOWN IN CITY BY NEGRO STAR CINCINNATI, OctMt). (AP) A rug ged defense that beat off five Indiana goal line thrusts In the last half, and the long distance putting of big Lon don Gant, negro back, gave the Uni versity of Cincinnati Bearcats a 7-to-0 victory over the Big Ten eleyen from Bloomlngton today. Gant accounted for the only score of the contest In the second quarter when he pulled down a 20-yard pass from Linus Haby, Bearcat quarter, ,n the Indiana 18-yard line, shook off two red-clad tacklera and crossed the goal line standing up. Fred Yeager, blocking back, place-kicked for the extra point. - Dse Mall Tribune want ad. Three new line of cars for 1036 Cadillac-Fleet wood Series. a Cadil lac Series Sixty, and a LaSalle. were introduced yesterday by the Cadillac Motor Car company, through the Medford dealers, Skinner's Garage. Prices are lower on all lines, es pecially In the Cadillac group, to which has been added the Series Sixty; an entirely new and smallrr Cadillac of superlative performance. The Series Sixty, lower In price than any Cadillac since the four-cyl inder models of 1908. lists at only 1646 at the factory. This model, ac cording to company officials, has been created for those who desire Cadillac quality and distinction In a personal car of convenient slee. It Is excep tlonally easy to paik, a feature which should appeal particularly to women drivers. , ' The new Cadillac -Fleetwood Series, including the V-8, V-12. and V-16, all offer sharply improved values In beauty, comfort and performance, Fleetwood bodies are standard throughout this series. All carry tur rettops, thla being the first applica tion of ateel top construction to custom-built bodies. The 1938, LaSalle reveala further rennemrnt m -ne aienarr unea wmii have created a new vogue in body design. The performance promise Im plied In these fleet lines Is amply confirmed by LaSalle's pick-up and sceed. Reduced LaSalle prices now range from 81176 to $1266 at the fac tory. The brilliant Cadillac Series Sixty, newest member of the Cadillac family, establishes an all-time high in Cadll lao performance. Equipped with an entirely new V-8 motor of more than 126 horsepower, It provides spirited accleratlon and Is capable of road speeda up to 00 and 100 miles per hour. Also It offers surprising high gear pick-up aven at touring speeds above 70 miles per hour. The wide margin of power has reduced to a minimum the need for shifting gears. Built in three body models by Fisher on- the most rigid frame ever employed on any American automo bile, the Berles Sixty meas the ex acting Cadillac standards of passen ger security. In the closed models, the '-turret top, -sides and ttoe entire rear floor aro of steel. Body choices Include a five-passenger four-door touring sedan with rear trunk; a closed coupe with opera seat for an additional passenger, and a convert ible coupe with rumble seat. Interior appointments and upholstery reflect the combined talents of Cadillac and Fisher craftsmen. Double stabilizers add definitely to passenger comfort In both the Berles Sixty and In the CadlUac-Fleetwoods.'The 1936 Cad 11 lac models employed this antl-away device at the rear of the chassis. A second stabiliser now Is carried at the 1 front of the chassis as well. Narrower radiators and Increased streamlining serve to empha.iire fur ther the traditional beauty of the Cadlllac-Fleetwoods. The radiator fins on all Cadillac models are of two tone chrome and the radiator orna ment Is a graceful, forward -leaning feminine figure In bright chrome. Smart Fleetwood interior appoint ments accord In all drtalls with Cad illac standards. Material increases are noted in seat width, seat height and In head room, the latter having been achieved without affecting the over all height of the cars. Mechanically, the Cadlllac-Fleet-woorts offer much that Is new. Even quieter operation Is assured by a more rigid engine, by complete crank shaft counterwetghtlng and by Cad illac's hydraulic valve adjusters which eliminate tappet clearance. Improved lubrication and cooling systems pro tect the motor under all extremes of service and temperature. A "peak load" generator varies Its output to maintain the battery at full charge. A "triple range" choke functions au tomatically, bvit also may be operated manually If the driver so desires, or used as a ''dechoka" if necessary. The new LaSalle. with four attrac tive bodies by Fisher, continues the distinctively narrow LaSalle radiator, but the grille has been rounded out In a slightly convex effect. A long, slim torpedo rib now' Joins the top halves of the cup-shaped ventilating ports along the hood. Doors are hing ed forward Instead of at the rear. Other changes' Include a new Instru ment panel finished In a chrome- striped modern motif, and a new hand brake lever now placed under the Instrument panel at the driver's left. The chassis Is built around frame of even greater strength and rigidity. In the closed coupe body of the LaSalle, aa In the Series Sixty Cadillac, an opera seat Is placed be hind the conventional coupe scat. Smith Into the open, and after some beautiful broken field running the1 big southpaw straightened out along the sidelines and galloped toward the goal. Three .desperate tackles were brushed lightly aside with the sweet est change of pace Smith hsa aver shown and. for tha third tlm In the game, he loped across the last stripe standing up. Thla time he made his drop-kick good, and the score Jumped to 37-0, Medford kicked off o tha Pilots on the next play and, after being stopped in three plays, they tried a line buck. Smith smacked the runner so hard that he fumbled the ball and the Tigers recovered. Taking the ball, the Tigers broke Lewis loose around left end, and he loped to the three before being stopped, with Sak- ralda dynamiting the hog hide, over from there on a buck, making two touchdowns on three plays. Smith missed the drop-kick. With the entire second string warming up on the sidelines. Marsh- field kicked to Lewis, who brought It back 10 yards to the 36. Sskralda then stepped back and rifled a pr- fort pas to Kuncman who, Just be fore he waa tackled, spotted It out to Ettlnr racing wide, and Etttngnr was forced out of bounds on the Marshfleld 48 aa the second string entered the fray. With Fraley and Offard lending the fire, the second string fought Inch for Inch with the tiring Pirates and the rest of the game went score less. The reserves, with Bayllss and Glllnsky doing moat of the ball tot ing, ran the ball to within the 16 ynrd line thrice during the half, but lacked punch to score, with fumble Mlrhlfmn Solon Pasws KALAMAZOO.
