—Let's Go Hunting— PRESERVATION OF GAME URGED IN NEW LAWS National Booklets Ready for Distribution at City Stores. BY LEFTY’ LEE Time* Hunting; F.ditor The 1933-34 game laws issued by the United States department of agriculture now are available at the downtown sporting goods stores, and some data of interest to all hunters, ! in addition to laws and regulations ; of the federal, state and provincial governments, is presented. One of the most interesting features is the appeal to the hunters for their cooperation during the need for restrictions on hunting, especially duck hunting, if this sport is to survive. Two years ago the President, by executive proclamation, called upon the sportsmen, landowners and all others interested in the future of waterfowl, to lend their co-operation to effect the full observance of the federal regulations protecting migratory birds in order that adequate numbers might return to their breeding grounds and that there might be no repetition of the calamity of extermination that already has overtaken some species of j American birds. Overshooting Is Attacked The menace of draught, drainage and overshooting still faces the water fowl. In the existing emergency, sportsmen again are urged to practice and encourage strict moderation in shooting, and to see that the kill is made chiefly from the more abundant species and that, every practicable effort is made to spare the kinds that are reduced seriously and in danger of early extinction. Indications early in the fall were that pintail, mallard and black ducks might be expected in fair numbers in favorable concentration areas during migration, but that canvasbacks, redheads, scaups, bluewinged teal and others again would be at an exceedingly low ebb. Geese, with the exception of brant on the Atlantic coast, were expected in about the same numbers as in recent years. It is evident, that, united and continued effort must be made to maintain an adequate breeding stock of water fowl, and to build up the supply of several important species to the point where their hunting may be enjoyed without constant fear of their virtual extermination. Unlimited Era Past The era of unlimited, indiscriminate slaughter of waterfowl must be recognized as a period of exploitation of our natural resources that j definitely is past. The only hope for the future of migratory game birds and the sport of wild fowling j is in measures that will reduce con- j siderably the number of birds that will be killed until such a time as the breeding stock has been restored. In the present critical situation the value of refuge areas, for instance. is more to be measured by the effectiveness in reducing killing of wild fowl than by the extent to which these areas may increase the nesting and feeding grounds. These latter benefits are of primary importance to the future of birds but are secondary issues at this time when the imyediate problem is to conserve the existing breeding stocks. Sportsmen Must Act It is of vital importance that these matters be known to every person who desires the perpetuation of the migratory game birds and it is important that the American sportsmen should not be deceived in regard to the seriousness of the situation by optimistic reports of local abundance. Whether sufficient birds can be saved from what remains of a once great inheritance to continue reasonable shooting privileges in ten. or even three years from now. depends most of all upon the willingness of the American sportsmen to meet the crisis by a clear, intelligent recognition of the situation and to accept any restrictions that may be applied. An act of the Minnesota legislature makes it unlawful to hunt any migratory waterfowl, or to molest, harass or worry waterfowl by discharging firearms or other noisemaking devices within three hundred yards of any area on which natural or prepared grains have been placed for the purpose of attracting these birds. This law is a stride in the proper direction. As with the modern firearm, the hunter who baits his blind certainly has the opportunity to slaughter as many of the hungry, unsuspecting birds as he desires. Old world fanners yoke their geese to keep the flocks from straying. For Hard Coughs or Colds That Worry You Creomulsion is made to give supreme help for coughs or colds. It combines 7 helps in one—the best helps known to science. It is for quick relief, for safety. But careful people, more and more, use it for every cough that starts. No one knows where a cough may lead. No one can tel] which factor will do most. That depends on the type of cold Creomulsion costs a little more than lesser helps. But it means the utmost help. And it casts you nothing if it fails to bring the quick relief you seek. Your druggist guarantees it. Use it for safety's sake.— Advertisement.

Automobile ‘Knees’ on Front Wheels Insure Greater Riding Comforts

Motorists Warned Against Delicacy of New Car Device. By \EA Sereire DETROIT, Jan. 3. —“Knees” on automobiles is a happy hunch of an ingenious advertising writer. Independent spring suspension, the technical term for “knees,” is an idea that has languished in the minds of automobile engineers for, 10, thirty years, finally to come to the light in America. And so, when you visit, the 1934 automobile show, the first thing that will be brought to your attention in many of the cars on exhibit will be the knee action of the front wheels. New to America, this idea has been in actual practice on several European motor cars for at least five years. Adapted by Several Here it is promised for all General Motors products, for the Hudson, for at least two Chrysler cars, one of which will be the Plymouth, and perhaps for other independent automobiles. Independent wheel suspension is the placing of all four wheels on individual units so that the action of each will be apart from the rest. At present, the two wheels in front and the two in the rear are connected solidly by an axle, so that when one of the wheels rises over an elevation or sinks into a rut, the wheel at the other end of the axle, and in fact the entire body, is tilted at the right angle made by the rise oi drop. In other words, there is a stiffness to the body which the new type of suspension will correct. Wheels Work Separately Given the “knee action,” each wheel rises or falls independently of the others, and so reduces the tilt of the body to a minimum. Two types of suspension are used, in most cases, to bring this about. One is the coil spring placed vertically alongside the wheel to take up the shock of a rise or drop and so keep the body level. The other type makes use of quar-ter-elliptic transverse springs——Henry Ford, take notice!—in combination with the pump or plunger principle of shock absorbers. As the wheel strikes a bump or rut, the plugger rises or falls in its cylinder just inside the wheel, along with the same action in the spring. Used in Front Wheels The axle, in both cases, is no more than a cross-member foundation for the front and rear of the body. The wheels revolve on individual spindles attached directly to the springs or pistons, as the case may be. On the new cars, only the front wheels will have “knees.” It’s costly enough to put the new suspension there, without going into the additional expense—and a host of trouble—of adding the innovation to the rear. But with only front “knees," engineers say, the cars will be improved greatly in riding comfort. There will be less of that “shimmy,” or "tramp." as other exasperating steering difficulties the driver has

HARRY HARTZ PROVES THE WRONG WAY IS THE RIGHT WAY

You don't have to believe it. but take it from Harry Hartz. noted race pilot and automotive engineer. it's true —the ordinary automobile would run better, faster, and safer, if its body were reversed on the chassis. To prove his point, Harry reversed a body on a standard car and was a sensation in Detroit and New York, astonishing police and public. Lower picture, he explains to "Sugar.' idol of Central Park's kids, that he is really going the right way and that is the best way to go, because the wind

New Chevrolet Will Be Shown by Zone Chiefs

City Exhibit to Be Held at Same Time as Annual National Display. A preview of Chevrolet's 1934 models will be staged in Indianapolis Saturday, simultaneously with the opening of the National Automobile show at New' York. This was disclosed here today by E. W. Berger, zone manager, who has completed arrangements for the local exhibit. The exhibit here will open at 1 p. m. Saturday, at 1100 North Meridian street, with a complete line of the company's latest products on display, Mr. Berger announced. The exhibit will continue daily through Jan. 13. with continuous entertainment and music provided by Purdue | university for the visitors. Admission is free. Considerable local interest is anticipated at the showing. Mr. Berger l stated, because the new models rep- ! resent radically improved cars designed to further intrench Chevrolet in the position of leadership it has enjoyed for five of the past seven years. “Our 1934 cars represent more I than annual new models,” Mr. Berger explained. “They are radically, | decidedly and basically new. Seek Early View "We are fortunate to be able to \ hold these advance showings in a number of the larger cities of the country. We are coming to Indianapolis with a display because we consider this town one of the most important in the United States. This wall be one of 100 where the 1934 Chevrolet will go on display simultaneously with the opening of the New York show "We are holding the local display because we have a large number of | dealers and interested people in this i section who want to get the earliest ! possible view? of the new car. In 1 a week or two it will be displayed 1 at every dealer showroom in the j United States. Meanwhile, those : interested may see it in advance at the show?ing here.” The doors of the show w?ill be j opened at 10:30 a. m. and will remain open until 10:30 p. m. every \ day of the showing here (excluding Saturday opening day), according to present plans. Details will be announced later. Knee Action Is E’eature "That the 1934 Chevrolet will prove a revelation to local people is an accepted fact by those in our ow T n organization who have seen and driven the new models. In the ; early part of December I accomencountcred even in the latest styles of automobiles. But, look out! You'll have to be more careful in driving, for the mechanism will be much more intricate and delicate than is the present simple axle, king-pin and ‘ spindle combination.

resistance is more than 20 per cent less if the bigger end goes first. Harry saves fuel, time, money, worry and driver's strain. Upper inset. Harry's famous "76" racer that gave him the idea. He studied aerodynamics and turned the body around, rounding the nose and tapering the rear. The results so astonished Harry that he broke twelve records and his more recent experiments have clinched his opinion that if one doesn't have a scienj tifically streamlined car then the next best thing is to drive the sonventional car with body reversed.

E. W. Berger panied a number of other local factory representatives to a threeday convention in Michigan. At that time we w?ere taken to the General Motors proving ground at Milford, where w?e had a chance tc ride in and drive next year’s products,” Mr. Berger said. “The new? ‘knee-action’ wheels, supplemented by many other new' features, opened my eyes to w'hat could be done with a low-priced car. I never experienced anything like it. There is greater power, appearance, durability and economy. And I truthfully can say that the claim for ‘knee-action’ w'heels really means the difference betw'een a ‘ride’ and a ‘glide.’ “Everybody in Indianapolis ana neighboring territory is invited to inspect our exhibit. They will find it most interesting, instructive and entertaining. Thereafter, as soon as cars are available, everybody who wants to find out w'hat 'knee action’ really means when combined with other big-car features in the low? price field, will have an opportunity to do so through arrangement with local dealers. They will have cars w?ithin two weeks after the exhibition closes.” BARBERS WILL CONVENE Reports Will Be Made by Shop Owners on Prices and Operating Hours. A mass meeting of Indianapolis barbers w?ill be held at 8 tomorrow? night in Eagles hall, 43 West Vermont street, to hear report of a committee of shop owners on prices and operating hours for this trade area. Under the barbers’ NRA code, a majority of shop owners may designate prices and operating hours, subject to national code authorities’ approval. City Lawyer Opens Own Office Coburn T. Scholl has opened a law office at 224 Hume-Mansur building, he announced today. Mr. Scholl was associated with the legal firm, Robinson, Symmes and Melson. for eight years.

NEW PLYMOUTH SHOWING DATE AWAITED HERE Fifteen Innovations Mark 1934 Model: Preview Is Given. The 1934 Plymouth car, soon to be displayed here, was given a “closed door” preview to newspaper men and Dodge, De Soto and Chrysler dealers here today. To be formally announced at the New York automobile show on Jan. 6, the cars will not be placed on public display here until a date in January to be announced later, it was stated today by A. L. Millard, local representative of the Plymouth Motor Corporation. The pre-showing revealed that the new Plymouths have many features never before found in a low? priced car. They retain such basic Chrysler Motors engineering features as floating power, hydraulic brakes and allsteel bodies, and in addition have many other new advantages, includnig anew? type of individual front j wheel springing—to be found on j even the lowest priced 1934 Plymouth j cars—a revolutionary new ventilat- j ing system on the De Luxe Plymouth ' models, new? and smarter interior appointments and more than fifteen other new features. Test Springing Action The dealers and newspaper men j were given a ride in anew Plymouth six and experienced the amaz- | ing riding qualities made possible by the new individual front wheel springing. They found that the new springing unit allow’s each front w'heel to rise vertically or fall, w?hen striking bumps or road obstructions, without disturbing the other wheel, and minimizing road shocks to both frame and body. In explaining the new? method of springing. Mr. Millard stated: “The coil springs in the new Plymouth front wheel suspension | are made of anew type steel al'oy, j said to be twice as strong as any j other known steel. In laboratory i tests, Chrysler Motors engineers have been unable to break the springs—even after they have been j subjected, under hydraulic pressure, to 1,800,000 “ups and downs” —more action than the springs would ever receive in ten years of | use on an average motor car. Undergo Severe Tests “The sand pits in which Plymouth cars are tested for structural strength are known as ‘torture pits,’ for the engineers actually drive the cars so hard that they attempt to : 'break them up’,” Mr. Millard related. "When our test cars stand the grueling trials of the sand pits without breakage, w?e know that the production cars will hold up under any and all road conditions. “The Chrysler Motors sand pit at! a Century of Progress, where: Plymouth cars were bounced high in the air out of ruts and bumps gave the public an insight into how? strenuous these tests are. Plymouth's new individual front wheel | springing has w?ithstood our most' severe sand pit tests 100 per cent. Not only did the coil springs goj through long hours of rough driving —harder driving than the average motorist w r ould ever do in his entire , lifetime —but they brought home ' graphically to us the amazing rid- j ing qualities which the new suspen- i sion system makes possible in the new Plymouth. “With the new Plymouth spring- 1 ing system both front and rear seats j ride equally well. Tests we have made show it is possible .to drive ! one wheel of the car over a series j of railroad ties, yet the shocks re- j ceived on the wheel hitting the ties are largely dissipated in its individual spring and have practically no effect on the opposite wheel, and its spring. “One of the important points about the new individual front springing as perfected by Plymouth is the extreme simplicity of its construction and operation?’ TWO BOYS STEAL $l4O Bandits Hold Up Women and Rob Them of Their Purses. Purses containing $lO4 were stolen from Mrs. Lester Finch and Miss Clarice Mills, 1641 North Alabama street, last night by two Negro boys, one of whom wielded a revolver. The bandits held up Mrs. Finch and Miss Mills as they walked near their homes, threatening to shoot if the victims screamed for assistance.
