MEDFORD MATL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25. 1941 PAGE FIVB Smarter 1942 Chevrolet Here Friday THE GRANGE NAZI CITY: OLD APPEAUS GONE German Touch Seen Every where As Former French Capital Loses Landmarks Paris (U.R) What was unbe lievable of Paris in the spring of 1940 is commonplace now. There is an abundance of Ger man soldiers. There is no cafe au lait. In fact, the coffee it self is only 25 per cent real. The streets, buildings and street cleaners are Just about the tame as they were a year ago. but the city has changed never theless. The following account is what the United Press corros V pondent saw in an hour's stroll in the vicinity of the Opera. A large sign on a Boulevard dps Italiens building housing the United Press offices, reads: "Learn German in Sixty Les sons." Last year the emphasis was on English. I Below is a men's clothing store and a shoe shop. On the window of the latter a notice in forms the restriction-laden pub lic: "The shoe store syndicate has the honor to inform the public that it will find herein forms with which you can request a permit to buy shoes The per sonnel is at your disposal to answer questions on this sub ject." Shoes In Odd Sises Set off by a portrait of Mar shal Henri Philippe Petain, the window is attractive. Paper . strips to guard against splinter lng glass have been removed. Most of the shoes, however, are in small or medium sizes. A newsstand on the corner features German newspapers, magazines, guides to Paris writ ten in German and pamphlets on French wines. Gone are the London Journals and the Paris edition of the New York Herald Tribune. On the billboard space on the white, uncompleted Ford building is the latest anti-British propaganda poster. Next door a movie house advertises: "Bel Ami," one of the latest films from Vienna. On the canopy of the Restaur ant Capucines is a banner in red and black German letters! "Pous set Spatenbrau Munich." Signs In German Just before the boulevard runs Into the Place de l'Opera, a theater is closed by an iron gate. It has not been reopened since there was a commotion during a newsreel showing some months ago. Large traffic signs in black jSinft ,. Z' m mtmi!'imw mum "'" nTmmml New massiveness, contribut ing to the smartest styling ever designed for the nation's No. 1 sales volume motor car, char acterizes the Chevrolet offering for 1942, according to C. M. Hurd, manager of Rogue River Chevrolet. The new car Is pre sented in three lines ranging from an economy model that incorporates unusual refine- mcnts to a luxury line surpass ing all previous presentations in the lowest-price field. The new models will be on display Fri day at Rogue River Chevrolet. As in past years, the new car is presented in the Master de luxe and Special de luxe series. The Fleetline series, introduced mid-season last year in sedan only, is represented again by sedan, known as the Sportmas ter, and the new Fleetline six- passenger Aerosedan, said to be one of the most attractively styled models in the entire showing. The same attention to finish ed detail that is apparent in the exterior of the new models is noted at once inside the car Smart styling, faie materials, and excellent design have pro duced the most beautiful and comfortable interiors that Chev rolet ever has offered. Though wheelbase on all models is unchanged from 1941 remaining at 116", stylists have set the over-all length at 195js , creating a long, low, sleek car that combines sweeping lines with a generally rugged appear ance. Complete new front-end treatment, handled harmonious ly, does much to convey an im pression of greater size and in creased sturdiness throughout. A new, lower, wider, more massive grille with its heavier bars gives an instant impres sion of bigness, while the blunter, deeper hood, front splash shield, and more widely spaced Sealed Beam headlights contribute to that effect. Greater length Is indicated at once by the new elongated front fend ers, which flow back into the front doors, swinging with the doors as they are opened. The new fender design permits de sirable clean, smooth surfaces. An ingenious touch is the new foot scraper at the front run ning board step pad, created by a triangular extension of the new fenders. Because the unusually suc cessful Chevrolet engine devel oped for 1941 is retained with only minor refinements for the new year, power output remains virtually the same, assuring the same high performance charac teristics so generally acclaimed last year. Axle ratios and tire sizes likewise are unchanged, insuring hill-climbing ability, acceleration, and general over all performance at the 1941 level. Fuel and oil economy, long a Chevrolet trait, is also thus assured. Much broader and deeper than before, the new hood ex tends back to the front edge of the front door, displacing the former cowl side panel and making a cleaner line. Greater sturdiness is apparent in the new bumpers and guards, for increased depth makes the bumpers appear more massive and increased crown depth as sures greater resistance to Im pact. Guards are redesigned to ward a more massive appear ance, and an added feature Is the relocation of the front li cense plate guard bar spanning the tops of the bumper guards and serving as a grille guard. German words on a white back ground rise around the Place de l'Opera. Eight of them direct the ways to Red Cross stations. Posters outside the opera house announce the arrival of the Ber lin Staatsopera, burned out of its Berlin home by British in cendiary bombs. PASTOR DIES Oregon City, Sept. 25. JP The Rev. Edward W. Whithnell, 48, pastor of Willamette Metho dist church, died Tuesday.

Roscoe Roberts, a member of the Medford traffic council, reported on the last traffic meeting, giving the problems of down town parking. This report was followed by open discus sion as to how to Improve park ing conditions and traffic con gestion in downtown Medford. 4. Of special concern to us is the dangerous curve on the west end of Spring street where many accidents occur because of no warning sign or signal as the curve cannot be seen at a sufficient distance so as to slow down. A great deal of travel passes over this road as it Is a connecting link between East Main and Spring street's loop drive. We decided this danger should be eliminated and Roxy Ann Grange hopes to have this work achieved in their safety program. 5. Literature pertaining to safety Is to be distributed In the Lone Pine school and mo tion pictures are to be shown, under direction of Ethel Bish and Roscoe Roberts.
