' . ? For years the driveaways were known as the "meal tick et" for vacationers who liked to take cross-country jaunts and get free transportation. But now the firms are having run of hard luck. U No longer do the companies make a prosperous living by .picking up new cars from De- TV's Dick Clark To Obtain Divorce PhildeipniaOPB-F'riends of television's teen-age idol Dick Clark and the former -high school sweetheart he married eight years ago were shocked today by the couple's sudden announcement they would eek a divorce, . , The 31-year-old entertainer, Who rose to national fame as master of ceremonies of a tele vised afternoon dance for teen-agers, refused to expand on the announcement that he "and his wife, Barbara, 30, "have consulted our attorneys and the divorce papers will be filed in the near future." Oregon Said To Have Milk Surplus Corvallis-DPD-Oregon State "University economist Stephen Marks says there is an appar ent milk surplus in Oregon because of importations from Washington and Idaho. . He said milk production in Oregon is down and the num ber of . cows has decreased. But production per cow has increased. ', m. The recent price drop stem med from a surplus resulting from imports. Milk produc tion in Washington and Idaho hat gone up, Marks said. troit factories and delivering them to distant points by means of vacation drivers who get free transportation. . Business Declines . ; t Of the two dozen drive away firms that did a thriving business in Detroit seven years ago less than half now re main. And these report that business is down at least 30 per cent over a year ago. ' The driveaway owners at tribute their troubles mainly to auto freight reductions. : But another factor cited frequently- was the industry's de cision to decentralize. With more assembly plants around the country, there is less need for new cars shipped from Detroit. , The combination of factors has meant that the driveaway companies do almost no busi ness these days with the De troit car factories. Most of their- business is limited to arranging for shipment of used cars bought in Detroit for sale in distant cities. Look for Upturn ' "Most of our business is in used cars and it's slow at the present time," Dick Newton of AAA Nationwide Drive away said. "Although busi ness in the last month is down New England People Don't Like Strangers Chicago - (UPD Just like you've always heard,- New Englanders, at least according to a survey made by the So cial Research Company . of Chicago, do not like to talk to strangers. -. One of the directors of the survey noted: "New England ers are very reserved . . . their reputation for taciturni ty is based on fact." It was noted that midwesterners were friendlier and that resi dents of small towns general ly were more approachable than big-city folks. Residents of New York, Boston and Los Angeles tended to be shy of strangers, .while those in Phil adelphia and in Atlanta were less so. , . 40 to 50 per cent, we look for an upturn this summer." Newton said his firm sel dom handles new cars any more. "Every so often we get a brand new Lincoln or Cad illac, but none of the other makes which have plants scat tered all about." . The used car business has been slowly drying up too, however. The reason is that Detroit used-car prices grad ually are being equalized with those in far-away points. Difference Now Li Howard Hollembeak, own er of the Detroit Drive-Away Service, said used cars on the west coast used to cost about $400 more than in Detroit. "But now the difference is only about $140 or $150," Hollembeak said. "Some deal ers feel this is not 'enough to warrant the risk." Ray Orleman, of All-State Auto Drlve-A-Way Co., said "The trouble is, the car com panies now have assembly plants all over the country. Detroit isn't the automobile center of the world anymore." Portland Delivery Men Accept Otter Portland IUPD About ' 700 Portland milk plant and de livery, men accepted a final employer offer of a wage in crease Wednesday . night, averting a strike. . Members of Teamsters Lo cal 305 of Dairy, Ice and Ice Cream Workers accepted the offer following day-long nego tiations, i An employer spokesman said the pact included a 12V& cent hike over a period of May 1, 1961, to May 1, 1962. The local had threatened to strike this morning unless an agreement was reached.
