THE . EVENING . STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., Stuclebake * TUESDAY. JANU ~ announces a new and finer der Omman at a still lower price HE world’s first truly great motor car of moderate cost now becomes a car still finer e+ . at a price sfill lower! A new Commander by Studebaker, builder of champions! Worthy heir to the laurels of its gallant predecessor— The Commander which traveled 2 5,000 miles in less than 23,000 minutes. This record has never been successfully challenged save by Studebaker’s great President Straight Eight! By the measure and worth of a score of betterments, this new Commander merits its heritage of honors. 17 is the greatest automobile ever built and sold at its price. New Beauty »» New Comfort 77 New Safety The new Commander rides more easily —seats its passengers more comfortably —clings to the road at high speed even more steadily. This because of Studebaker’s new ball bearing spring shackles and the use of larger hy- draulic shock absorbers. Because of wider, deeper, softer cushions. Because the car is lower—and looks lower still. 1375 at the factory New ComMANDER BrouGHAM ror Five, $1525— Bedford cord upholstery of French pillow typ SRR e, with folding center arm rest in rear seat.

New carburetion, new manifolding, new sureness of starting in cold weather —to name a few refinements. And yet ++ the price is lower still! Artists in coachcraft have deftly re-di- rected its excellent body lines into effects of arresting beauty. Body mouldings have been made to contribute to the look ot length, of lowness, of eager speed. Color harmonies new to motordom, add to the new Commander’s bcautieg, and enhance its graces. Never was Studebaker’s engineering genius and uniqué One-Profit manufac- ture better exemplified. Never was Stude- baker’s 77-year-old tradition of manu- facturing integrity entrusted more safely. Here is a six-cylinder motor car utter- ly without peer in its price class, because it is faster, more enduring, more beau- tiful, more comfortable. It is a Stude- baker and a champion. There are no finer motor car credentials than these.
