Chalked Up in Ten Hours
Death, blood and wreckage splattered rain-soaked Indianapolis streets last night as one person was killed and at least 20 others were injured in 71 accidents within 10 hours. The 86th person to be killed in Indianapolis traffic this year was Mrs. Melvina Campbell, 22, of 4514 E. Apple St, She died when the car driven by © her 25-year-old husband, Chester, skidded into a tree on Southeastern Ave. just west of the Penngylvania Rallroad overpass. The right side of the car was demolished by the tree. Mr. Campbell suffered a broken arm. He was treated and released at St. Francis Hospital. 7 Hit-Run Accidents Most critically injured was a, ~

THERE WAS a Chinese technician—a Mr. Dai--who said he'd try. From the slaughterhouses of | Shanghai were collected the pan-| : creas glands of pigs, sheep, oxen and water buffalo. Equipment was antiquated, lacking or inefficient. The first batch of crude insulin killed the test rabbits and had to be discarded. Eva Saxl's supply dropped to a few score units. Although the medical books said insulin could not be assimilated by mouth, the frantic woman ate raw pancreas meat, its hideous taste hidden by horseradish. It only made her ill, Each day or so another of Shanghai's diabetics died in coma. There was a critical shortage of ice and alcohol, both essential to the handling of insulin, » » » MR. DAI struggled in the laboratory to make a product that normally requires modern, precise controis. He. found that the pancreas fiber of pigs and water buffalo, used together, had the best effect on the rabbits used in his tests. When he prepared a batch he thought sufficiently safe, Eva _8axl played the role of guinea pig, and took the first injection. Sometimes the

Chrome-plated top piston rings help get Plymouths off to a good start. They protect cylinder walls against “scuffing”
during the break-in period, as w

the life of the engine. Also, Plymouth has four instead of three

The cleaner the oil, the longer an engine lasts. Plymouth—and only Plymouth in the. lowest-priced fleld— has a Floating Oil Intake. Floating just below the surface of oil in the crankcase, it draws in only the cleanest oil, avoiding any sediment that may be on the bottom.

Plymouth body finish stays beautiful through the years. And no wonder. It starts with a coat of rustproofing. On top of that, two coats of primer, baked and then sanded. On top of that, a coat of sealer, baked and sanded. And on top of all that, two coats of baked enamel.
More proof of “built-in value”: Of all standard-built cars used as taxicabs, Plymouths outnumber all other makes
combined! Mileages of 200,000 to 3
00,000 are not uncommon
among Plymouth taxis. And the same durability that makes #§
