As a re sult, one of Plymouth's staunch est fans today Is Ralph Byrd, movie star who plays the part of the nationally fairoua super-detective Dick Tracy. "When the Plymouth we used dur ing the filming of this serial were called upon to leave highways and dash cross-country through ditches and over rock heaps, they took such tasks In their stride," Byrd pointed out. "We used an entire fleet of 1938 Plymouth cars In the filming of hti serial, and at no time were we faced with the expensive problem of de laying production due to the failure of the cars." The new "cars proved, the actor re ports, that recent improvements in riding comfort are also a boon to screenland's professional heroes who must arrive In the nick of time with undiminished vigor regardless of the perils of the trip.
