New Sports Car Pastime Needs Driver, Navigator Bv GAY PAULEY UPI Women's Editor New York-UPD-A growing hobby among the U.S. motor ing set puts the lady back seat driver up front. The re sult will be a sharp increase in the divorce rate, humor ously predict ed o n e male hobbyist, who currently is i Gay Pauley Snorts car ral lies, long a pastime in Enrnnp have spread to America. tor the information of those who have not partici pated in this.sport. a rallv is a contest in which the driver and navigator of a sports car pit their skills against a driv ing course outlined to the sec ond by one of the numerous sports car clubs. The aim of the rallyists: To travel a eiven distance in prescribed time ana at prescribed speed. The reward, in addition to fun. usually is a cup or other trophy. Short and Long A rally may be as short as four hours on a Sunday after noon or for, as long as 3,000 miles over a four-week period. But to stay within the m-e- scribed limits on time and dis tance requires detailed mathe matical calculation and this is where the little woman usu ally comes in, as "navigator." Keeping the family budget is much easier," sighed Mrs. John C. Conover, a young New York matron. Her hus band, executive director of a trade group, the Corset and Brassiere association, recently acquired a British-made sports car. He promptly joined a sports car club, started on their rallies, and recruited her as assistant. "I'll admit the driver was much the easier job," said Conover. "I know. As an old to the East for the birthday march. 5s d a v stro m, ANNOUNCE DINETTES tVvyvv!lWNV Navy man, I have been both pilot and navigator." . "I can see it now," he add ed good-naturedly. "As the rallies get more popular, there will be more lost tempers . . . separations . . . divorces." Although husband and wife, or boy friend and girl friend, may squabble over the way they finished in a rally-the mistakes are always hers of course, they go right on with their pastime. Imports Growing Alan F. Bethell, former rac ing car driver and now presi dent of Britain's Standard Triumph Motor company, esti mated that between 80,000 and 90,000 sports cars now are imported yearly. The British Auto Manufac turers' association of New York said last year's imports of sports cars from the five leading British makers total ed 49,000. The 1957 total was 28,000; for 1956, it was 15.000. The association said British makers account for more than half of all sports cars sold in the United States. "Rallies are for more than just fun," said Bethel. "They call for precision driving. They're safety contests too. The rallyist who violates any traffic law is disqualified im mediately by his club. There are hidden observers all along the route. "Rallyists come in all ages. We have heard of some in their 70's. But the average couple seems to be in the mid-thirties."
