STUDEBAKER 26, 1924—PART T CONCERTIS LISTED BY 13TH ENGINEERS Band to Feature Community Center Entertainment at Eastern. A concert by the 13th Engineers. Band of Fort Humphreys will feature the community center program at Eastern High School ~Wednesday night at § o'clock. A spectal program has been prepared-under the direc- tion of Warrant Officer R. W. Treichel, conductor. A second concert by the band, ar- ranged under the auspices of the community center department, will be given at Central High School audi- torium in November, after the presi- dential election. On election night, in the Central auditorium, the United States Navy Band Orchestra, conducted by Band- master Charles Benter, will gived a concert, under the auspices also of the community center department in its series of educational programs for the Winter. Arrangements have been made by ‘the department to re- ceive election returns between the numbers and after the concert in order that all persons interested in the program and also in the electior may listen in comfort to both, there being 2,000 seats at Central for those who do not wish to stand outside or who have no radios for receiving the news. Artists Are Listed. Announcement is made at the office of the community center department of the artists who will appear in the serjes of community center concerts, to be given this Winter in co-opera- tion with Mrs. Wilson Greene, in the auditorium at Central. The concerts will take place on four Friday eve- nings, beginning Décember 5, and at- tention is called to the fact that owing to the size of the Central audi- torium, the series is open not only to students and members of their fam- ilies, but to all persons interested in A new type of car has stirred the automobile world as has nothing since the abandonment of the “buggy” style of body building. It is the Studebaker Duplex, 3o called to indicate that it is an open car one moment, and 30 seconds later it is an enclosed car. Like all great advances in the industrial arts, it is “so simple in operation, it is a ‘wonder it wasn’t thought of before™ Particularly since its need has been growing, year by year, ever since automobiles were made. Many people all of the time, and most people part of the time, want an open car—to bring to their riding the fresh crispness of the country air, and a free and untrammeled association with the great outdoors. Yet for these same people, the snug comfort of the closed car, shutting out the storm and the wind and the cold, has been at times a necessity. -—— Two cars in one The Stadebaker Duplexis both cars in one. Just pull down the roller enclosures concealed in the roof of the car. In 30 seconds the open car has been made No hurried efforts to put up curtains; no hunting for the right one while the storm heats in; no mixing them up in the dark; no exposure through holes torn in them while trying to obtain, for the emergency, the protection given by a closed car = — — Just pull down the roller enclosures giving instant enclosed car effect.

Studebaker Duplex ends need of hunting for side curtains in the dark and storm sides and back; hardwood front. Steel, U-shaped cross beams, six of them, support the waterproofed, duplex fabric top and its linings. Here is permanent beauty, no sagging tops. But Studebaker, on which the whole vehicle-using world has come to depend for reliability, would not the public. rest on only one real contribution to the value givea It must give all that engineering ability could devise. Striking new features So there are offered three distinct models of cars, to meet each of the three fields of demand—the Standard Six, with 113.inch wheelbase and 50 horsepower motor; the Special Six, with 120-inch wheelbase and and luxurious of its products, with 127-inch wheel- base and 75 horsepower motor. Duplex bodies are available on each Ine. In ad- dition, closed models have workmanship and mate- rials and beauty of line so far above the price class of the car, they must be seen to be appreciated. Of scarcely less importance than the Duplex fea- ture are other. improvements such as, automatic windshield and many others. ignition system, lighting control on the steering wheel, new location of emergency brake, improved one-piece fenders of the new Studebaker were designed espe- cially for genuine balloon tires. Thus the body lines harmonize with grace and beauty hitherto unattained, even by Studebaker.
