Automatic Transmissions
Do Thinking for Driver
Detroit. June 12 (U.PJ Auto
matic transmissions do some of
your thinking for you when
you're driving a car.
But the engineers working to
banish the clutch pedal can't
agree on the best type of "me
chanical brain" to replace it
with.
There are several schools of
thought among the five fully
automatic shifts and the two
semi-automatic ones now on the

But they boil down to three
basic types.
1. The progressive gear type,
illustrated by General Motors'
hydra-matic. In this device a
fluid coupling takes the engine's
power directly into four sets of
planetary gears. These shift au
tomatically, without a clutch
pedal, depending upon car speed.

WHAT I LEARN
Having landed on the lonely
isle, Tristan da Cunha (all wet),
and seen for myself, I am happy
to report that
the good people
there, young
and old, have
the finest tceth
of any civilized
people in the
world, and so
far as I can
learn, of any
other people,
white, yellow,
brown or black,
anywhere. All
told there are
Dr. Brady only 265 or 270
people there. They live only on
Tristan.
Tristan da Cunha is a group of
three lonely volcanic Islets in the
south Atlantic, as far south of
the Equator as Louisville or Los
Angeles is north of it.
How the navigator of our ship,
sailing east from Rio de Janeiro,
hit these incredible flyspecks on
the globe the very first try is as
great a mystery to me as what
makes an automobile go when
you turn the key and release the
brake. But he hit 'em, or I
should say he would have hit
them had he not stopped the
ship two or three miles out.
From there on in the going
was not so easy.
. There are three islets In the
Disputed Gun Causes
Law Merry-Go-Round
Hinton. W. Va. (U.R) Roscoe
Gill got his shotgun back but it
took four warrants and five
counter-charges to do it.
Gill swore out a warrant for
Billy Bryson when he found the
missing gun in Bryson's posses
sion. Bryson claimed he got the
gun from Noah Palmer, and
swore out a warrant for Palmer.
Palmer passed the buck to Ralph
Gill, and swore out a warrant
for him.
RalDh Gill blamed Donald
Ward for the theft, but couldn't
convince the police and wound
ud naying a fine.
To complicate matters, Frank
AdKins, an inmate at tne local
jail, told police the gun actually
belonged to him. Adkins wanted
a warrant for Roscoe Gill, but
police decided the matter had
gone far enough. They let it drop
mere.
Medford Student to
Get Doctor Degree
Portland, Ore., June 12 The
University of Oregon medical
school will confer the degree of
medical doctor on Robert Glenn
Pittenger, Medford, in the 63rd
annual commencement exercises
in the medical school auditorium
here June 16. Fifty-eight medi
cal degrees, one doctor of phil
osophy, and one master of sci
ence degree will be awarded.
Memphis. Tenn. (U.R) The
Memphis general depot posted a
list of salvage items for sale just
at the start of a heat wave, one
item was listed as "Creepers.
ice. 1981 pairs." Translated, that
means spiked shoes for walking
on ice.
Hydramatic, pioneered by Olds
mobile and used on U. S. tanks,
costs $158.50 extra on Olds,
Pontiac. Kaisers and Frazers and
Nash cars. On Cadillac and Lin
coln, its $174.25.
2. The toque converter. This
design, used in Buick's dyna
flow ($169) and Chevrolet's power-glide
($158.50), has no gears
all. In the converter, the engine's
torgue or twist forces oil to
bounce off a reflector into a
complex "catcher's mitt" of met
al vanes. There is no step from
one gear to another; one smooth
and powerful flow of oil changes
speed of the car. These transmis
sions eliminte the slight "click"
you get in hydramatic when
gears shift. But there is some
"slippage" at certain speeds.
Reiamblea Studebaker
3. Combinations of the torque
converter and mechanical gearf
or direct drives. Packard aells
for $185 a transmission called
ulta-matic which basically re
sembles Studebaker's automatic
drive, price $201.25.
Both Packard and Studebaker
devices "lock out." That is. af
ter a certain speed Is reached,
the torque converted leaves the
picture completely and mechan
ical drive takes over all auto
matically. The toque gives pow
erful acceleration whenever
needed. No clutch pedal Is used
with either automatic shift.
Later this year, Ford will
have an automatic transmission
combining the toque converter
principle, but using three plan
etary gears the same way hydra
matic does. But in the Ford
transmission, which will sell for
under $150, the torque replaces
fluid coupling.
Different Nam
In the Chrysler line, Chrys
lers, De Sotos and Dodges offer
the same type of semi-automatic
transmissions, but they have dif
ferent names prestomatlc, tip
toe hydraulic shift and gyro
matic. They use a fluid coupling
plus conventional clutch, opera
t by foot pedal.
Hudson's super-matte, costing
$199.31, combines overdrive with
a fluid coupling and semi-automatic
shifting.
Most engineers agree that the
trend is toward the torque con
verter, or some form of torque
combination. But don't tell that
to a hydra-matic man.
Unless you know your gear
ratios and torque multiplication
tables, you've got an argument
on your hands.
ED ON TRISTAN
group. Tristan itself is about
16 miles square or zu miles in
circumference. I didn't have
time to walk around It in tact,
I found the walking, lumping,
creeping and climbing pretty
strenuous for a bare half mile
along the rocky shore.
The other two islets of the
group, called Inaccessible and
Nightingale, lu to zu miles away.
are uninhabited, only a mile or
two in area.
The extinct volcanic peak of
Tristan is nearly IV miles above
sea level and its dead crater is
now a fresh water lake or reser
voir, 150 yards in diameter,
which never freezes over. This
and smaller crater lakes on the
island supply plenty of fresh wa
ter for the Inhabitants, whose
stone, thatched roof dwellings
are all in one settlement on a
plateau about 100 feet above
sea level, which overlooks a
narrow stretch of beach where
the islanders can shove off and
land their four-oared home-made
boats.
Beach, eh? Well, it looked
black enough as we approached
it, but still it seemed free from
dangerous rocks which stood out
menacingly on either side of the
30-yard gap.
The pilot instructed me to
crouch in the prow and when
they shoved her in to jump for
It. I still believe they were laugh
ing in their bellies at the gulli
bility of the foreign visitor. Ex
cept that it was black the beach
looked like good solid sand.
Between two rollers I Jumped
for it and I believe I would have
made a perfect landing but for
the treachery of that black sand.
It proved to be nothing but vol
canic ash and it gave away like
so much quicksilver. The next
roller rolled me up on the beach
sopping and well, what would
you have said in my place?
"Pshaw!" I suppose.
The Tristan people are of
American. British, Scandinavian,
Dutch. Italian origin, descend
ants of sailors of the whaling
days, soldiers of Napoleon's St.
Helena days, mariners ship
wrecked in the vicinity and some
voluntary settlers from Cape
Colony and England.
The inhabitants have always
depended principally upon pota
toes for food. Potatoes are their
main crop, on the limited
patches of arable soil among the
barren rocks. In the past when
the potato crop failed they were
in dire peril of famine, for ships
reached the islet only on rare oc
casions. Besides potatoes they arise
wheat, oats, some vegetables,
keep cows, sheep, geese, ducks
and chickens for milk, cheese,
eggs. wool. They kill and eat
meat only on special holidays
such as Christmas. From the
sea they get plenty of fish and
especially a fine grade of cray
fish with delicious white meat
resembling American lobster.
Tristan crayfish are so abundant
that a London-Capetown com
pany is now establishing a plant
on Tristan to can and ship the
crayfish to American and other
markets.
This commercial Invasion of
the "lonely" isle probably marks
the end of the good health era of
Tristan da Cunha.
Hitherto the people there, as
I have said, not only enjoyed ex
traordinary longevity and free
dom from the physical degenera
tions (hardening of the arteries,
slow heart muscle failure, rheu
matiz. diabetes, "liver com
plaint" etc.) which plague and
shorten the lives of wiseacre
Americans; but they have liter
ally confounded the great Amer
ican toothbrush and dentifrice
vendors and their gullible custo
mers (laymen and dentists) by
(a) having no use for toothbrush
es andor dentifrices and (b)
having the best preserved teeth
of any people or tribe in the
world.
More about Tristan In later
talks.
