RUMORS OF NO |
CHANGES IN"41
Styling May Be the Chief
Difference, Warnock Declares Here.
Rumors here that there would be ‘no production of 1941 model automobiles because of the national defense program were spiked. today by
C. O. Warnock, local dealer and
president of the Automobile Dealers’ Association of Indiana. He .said it was possible there would be but slight mechanical changes and that styling might be the chief difference between the 1940 and 1941 cars. He said he regarded the 1940 cars as “practically perfect” mechanically, and said new styling could be achieved without employing toolmakers many of whom have been weaned away from the automobile industry to work on national defense measures. -
N. Y. and Chicago Shows Planned Both New York and Chicago associations are going ahead with plans for their automobile shows, he said, indicating they have no doubt of 1941 model production. Mr. Warnock said that even if a large share of the nation’s automobile plants was utilized for defense purposes, it would not interfere much with production. There has been no slump in automobile demand since the beginning of the French invasion, and the formulation of American def plans, Mr. Warnock said. Indications that there might be a rise in prices next year have resulted In a slight late June sales

Stoops Gives Rules.
For Safe Touring
Todd Stoops, secretary of the Hoosier Motor Club, today listed rules which will make trips much safer for the thousands now leaving on their vacations. They are: 1. Take a restful position at the wheel. Grasp the wheel with the left hand above the center, about where 10 in on the face of the clock and then put the right hand about where the four is on the clock. 2. Drive within the range of the headlights at night. Check brakes so they will stop the car within the distance illuminated by the headlights. on 3. Don’t drive until exhausted. Many accidents are caused by drivers who are too tired to be on the alert. 4. Adjust the driver’s seat so there - will be no strain in reaching the accelerator and brakes. 5. Be sure the car is in goed mechanical condition — brakes, tires and steering in particular, 6. Don’t drive too- fast for the density of traffic, the condition of the road, or the weather.

STUDEBAKER MARKS FOUNDING IN 1862
Times Special SOUTH BEND, Ind. June 28.— The Studebaker Corp., one of Indiana’s big industrial organizations, is marking its 88th year with a
series of celebrations. The history and accomplishments
phlet issued recently from the offices of the company here. The organization started with the blacksmith business of two Studebaker ' brothers, who were joined later by a third at South Bend and who soon gravitated into the wagon-building business. They commenced building automobiles in 1902 when they made 20 electric runabouts. They built bodies for the Studebaker-Garford car in 1904 and marketed the E-M-F car in 1908. In 1912 the first Studebaker appeared on the highways of America. It was in 1920 that the last Studebaker wagon was built at the company’s plants and in 1926 the 1,000,000th Studebaker automobile rolled off the assembly line. Thirteen years later the 2,000, 000th Studebaker was built.
