PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDPOK1J, OREGON. SUNDAY, DECEMBER 22. 1935. mmn& gasify TO HUDSON LINE FOR LOCAL TERRITORY Th 1P38 Hudson slxe ind elghte nd the 1016 Temwplani have mved In Med ford and ars now on display Younfrs Car Market, 39 South R1t eralde, according to Jerry Voting, who has Jurt been appointed local Hud-on-Terra-plajie dealer. The new ours which are In the low price field have been particularly de igned by Hudson engineer and body experts to provide alze and style fea ture which up to this time have not been possible In that price claw- In appearance the new riudsons are ntlrely different from their prede cessors. The new sloping front grille presents a highly modern appearance. The V-type windshield end the en tirely new styling of the hood, body and rear contours plainly date these models as examples of the latest ex pression of the body designer's art. Five basic now engineering develop ments are to be found on the Hudson ears this year. On these new cars Radical Safety Control, which U an entirely new system of front design, Is Introduced for the first time. Another now feature on the Hud sons Is the Automatic Draft Elimin ation by means of which all of the air coming Into the car. In connec tion with the year-round ventilation system. Is controlled and screened. The fifth Improvement Is Duo-Automatic Hydraulic Braking In which & complete hydraulic braking system Is backed up by an emergency me chanical system which Is ever on guard to take up the worn of b ras ing the car should emergency arise. The hand home, big, roomy, bcnutlful ly contoured bodies afford luxury never before offered in this price field. Radical Safety Control which so materially Improves steering ' and topping derives its outstanding ad TantaKes from the fact that the front axle in Its rise and fall moves In a true clroular path. This Is so because the centers about which the front axle swings are definitely fixed by two drop-forged torque rods. The In troduction of these torque rods im mediately removes from the springs all of driving the front end and of absorbing brake torque. In other words, practically the entire duty of the front springs Is to provide sus pension for the car and consequently, they can be designed primarily and without compromise for suspension.

C. M. Hurd, of Rogue River Chevrolet, Inc., reports that he snd other dealers In this locality have been1 asked to discover whether the oldest Chevrolet Is In this territory. The one millionth Chevrolet built within the current year came off the assembly line at Flint, Mich., on De cember 12, Just elRht days after Chev rolet produced Its eleven millionth car since the beginning of the com pany. Presentation of the millionth car of the year a 1B36 standard coach will be made to the owner whose Chevro let Is discovered, between December 16. 1935, and midnight, January 18, 1938, to be the oldest model licensed and In regular service. Jt Is specified that, to win. the old timer Chevrolet must have been recu- larly licensed for operation during the current year, possessing Its own 193ft license tags Issued before De cember 1. It must, also, have been licensed as a passenger car, and be equipped with a complete passenger car body. It must bear the original engine and chassis numbers, legible and unaltered. To enter a Chevrolet for considera tion, the owner need only drive It to any Chevrolet dealer's salesrooms and submit It for examination, receiving a blank on which he will report the engine and chassis numbers of the car to the Chevrolet Motor company at Detroit, where the company's rec ords will determine which Is the very oldest In service. W. B, Holler, vice-president and general sales manager. In notifying denlcrs of the search for the oldest car, said that the presentation Is In tended as a New Year's gift as a re ward for the driver whose good care and maintenance has enabled the very oldest Chevrolet to survive after many years of operation. "Chevrolet Is happy to present tills 1938 model." said Mr. Holler, "because It feels that some recognition Is dtie the owners of Chevrolets. Our achievement of a production totaling well over a million cars during the current year Is to be credited largely to motorists who began purchasing Chevrolets many years ago and have placed many repeat orders since then.

CRATER RANGER Two destitute farmer brothers of Trail are 10 sacks of potatoes richer as a result of the observant eyes of a Crater Lake National park ranger. Six weeks ago the brothers were driving through the park during the night from Klamath county with a (ruck load of potatoes. Snow was deep along the south entrance highway and the truck slipped into a snow bank, hopcle&My stuck until a part of the load was discarded. As much as the brothers disliked to throw the spuds away, they saw no other altern.-t.ive If they expected to reach Trail with their load. They deemed the tubers would be a total Ices aa a result of freezing In the cold mountain air. However, a patrol ranger, J. W. Montgomery, making a final survey of park roads for the night, saw the spuds and brought them to park headquarters. No owners called for them and It appeared nobody ever would. Friday the brothers came through the park again and in the course of conversation mentioned the potatoes to the checking ranger at Annte Springs. They were overjoyed the spuds were still waiting for them. Chilly At Salem SALEM. Dec. 21.
