Bonk Swamped With Offer
To Buy 7979 Mode T Cor
NEW YORK How many
people do you think would like to
buy a 1919 model-T Ford coupe
in good condition for $350?
The Dry Dock Savings Bank
offered just such a deal the other
day. as part of on attention-getting
advertising program featur
ing unusual things to buy.
A newspaper advertisement pic
tured the car and said: "If you
want a car with plenty of head
room and lots of nostalgia, here
she is. A postwar model World
War I that is she was born in
1!)19 and is still in good running
condition. Electric starter or
crank it by hand if you insist."
The bank got 50 quick phone
calls and loiters, not only from
this area but from Pennsylvania
and Massachusetts. The inquiries
are still coming in.
Only about half the inquiries
were from people with car hob
bies. The others just saw the ad
and got to thinking what fun it
would be.
Miss .Sally Dominick. who han
dles the bank's ad program.
makes arrangements with people
vho have unusual things to sell
checking earelully to make sure
they are bargains in their way
and of top quality.
When people see the ads and
inquire, they are mailed circulars
giving all details so that direct
contact may be made with the
sellers.
The ads have featured such
things as $300 ship models, $'.KI5
telescopes, fencing lessons and
Mexican burros for $35 each.
Most popular items so far were
the telescopes and burros.
Now about that 1919 Ford again.
Just so prospective customers
would have a better chance at
a car. Miss Dominick listed on
her fact sheet a 1913 Ford touring
car and a 1915 Ford pickup truck
restored as a hobby by a real
estate man. He was willing to-sell
for $1,000 and $750, respectively.
What happened?
The fellow with the touring car
and pickup changed his mind.
Instead, he rushed out with a
$350 check and snapped up the
coupe.

staff to operate the small motors
repair department. There are also
four master mechanics in the trac
tor shop, two farm machinery re
pairmen, two handling radio and
TV repair, one each on washing
machines and pump repair. There
was a need for one person to be
assigned to small machinery, par
ticularly since the firm has been
assigned the franchise for Clinton
Motors recently.
"Carter's smile and willing
hands deny the lact that he has
been in a wheel chair for the last
eight vears," Ben Kerns commented.

As testimony drew to a close
vesterdav. Starkweather offered
to make his bet that he'd die in
the electric chair.
He leaned forward and to psy
chiatrist Dr. John Steinman. a
defense witness, said. "I'll bet
you a pack ol cigarettes that I
get a battery charge."
Later Dr. Steinman said "bat-

term for the chair.
A jury of eight women and four
men will decide the (ate of Stark

Carter was born at Lebanon,
Oregon. In 1950. the year alter he
was graduated from high school,

August contracted polio. Within
two days he had lost the use o(
his legs.

cue with direct assistance and re
habilitation at this point and Dale
learned to get about with the as
sistance of a wheel chair. The
handicapped lad was 19, married
and untrained in business.
His father set him up in a small
bicycle shop where he put into
practice his knack for handling
machinery. Time passed and the
business expanded to include
small motors and repairs on other
machines. The family grew, also
and the Carters now have t w o
boys.
Last year. Dale, upon the advice
of the Oregon State Rehabilitation
Councilor, registered as a student
at Oregon Tech. In the field ol
structural design he hopes to bet
ter support his family through Ihr
training he is receiving in new
skills at Oil.
In the meantime, he works every
day after school in his own little
department at herns store and
puts in full davs on Saturday
With the closing of the current
school year, he will be on at the
store on a full time basis, serv
