ROCKERS FOR OARSMEN Racing Shells Equipped With These Novel Seats Arc Given Tryout But Experts Withhold Opinion. sal m th 1414 in Boston,! July 26.—Racing shells equipped with rocking seats the pur- pose of which are to permit the oars- men to keep his back straight while he is pulling. through his stroke were tested in a race yesterday on the Charles river between two four- oared crews. Rowing men watched the demonstration but were reticent about giving an opinion. The rocker seat the invention of Dr. J. ¥. Goldthwaite was devised to eliminate the break in an oarsman’s body at the stomach while he “is pulling through. With the rocker seat the actual tug on the oar is much like lifting a burden from the ground. It was sald that the new de- vice would at least be practical in teaching in the early training season. - BISSCLL NAMED Gets Tormal Notification He is Cus- toms Collector Hartford, July 26.—Former Comp- troller Harvey P.

THE CARS In design, quality of materials, standard of workmanship, durability, refinements, performance, freedom from repairs, and price, the Studebaker 1924 Model Cars are distinctly the greatest intrinsic values the Corporation has ever offered. Every improvement the safety and practicability of which have been verified by engineering tests is embodied in these new cars. The Big-Six THE BIG-SIX LINE comprises four models, mounted on the standard 126-inch chassis with 60 H. P. 376 x 5 inch motor: 7-passenger Touring Car - $1750 5-passenger Coupe - $2550 5-passenger Speedster - $1835 7-passenger Sedan - $2750 all prices . 0. b. factory Refinements and a few minor mechanical changes have been made in the Big-Six, which has established an enviable record for five years. Our large production accounts for its low price. It is a car of the highest grade, comparable to the best. The Special-Six THE SPECIAL-SIX LINE comprises four models mounted on the standard 119-inch chassis with 50 H.P. 334x5 inch motor: 2-passenger Roadster - $1325 5-passenger Coupe - $1975 5-passenger Touring Car - $1350 5-passenger Sedan - $2050 all prices . . b. factory Radiator, hood, cowl, and body changes have been made in the Special-Six, with minor mechanical changes and refine- ments in the chassis. The Special-Six has for five successive years added luster to the name STUDEBAKER. It is one of the most satisfactory and finest cars on the market. It is as good in every respect as the Big-Six, except that it is smaller, and costs less to produce, and therefore sells for less. The Light-Six THE LIGHT-SIX LINE comprises four models, mounted on the standard 112-inch chassis with 40 H.P. 336x414 inch motor: 3.passenger Roadster - $975 2-pass. Coupe-Roadster-$1225 5-passenger Touring Car - $995 5-passengerSedan - $1550 all prices f. 0. b. factory No body or mechanical changes except refinements have been made in the Light-Six. Over 130,000 Light-Sixes have been produced in the new, modern $30,000,000 Studebaker plant at South Bend, Indiana, under most economical and - almost ideal manufacturing conditions. In our judgment, it stands out as the greatest value and the closest approach to mechanical perfection in moderate priced cars yet produced. THE REASONS WHY With $90,000,000 of actual net assets and $45,000,000 invested in plants, Studebaker has ample physical facilities to manufac- ture most economi Studebaker's organization of manufacturing executives, en- gineers, metallurgists, chemists, inspectors, and skilled mechanics is second to none in the industry. The design of Studebaker cars and the worhnmship upon them conform to the highest principles of engineering standards and mechanical practice known to the industry. Best of Materials Used Studebaker cars contain the finest known grades of irom, steel, aluminum, tires, electrical equipment, glass, bearings, etc. No better materials for automobile manufacture exist. Sheet aluminum has but one-third the tensile strength of sheet steel, and consequently, Studebaker uses sheet steel for its bodies. By the manufacture of drop forgings, castings, stampings and the machining, assembling and finishing of motors, axles, frames, transmissions, bodies, tops, etc., and the consequent elimination of middlemen’s profits, coupled with lower over- head factory costs per car arising from quantity production and low commercial expenses, Studebaker’s costs are kept at an economically low point possible of attainment only by manuface turers with vast physical and financial resources. - Bodies Unexcelled The bodies of Studebaker cars are not excelled in quality of materials and craftsmanship, by any cars on the market. The Coupe and Sedan closed bodies are magnificent examples of the coach builder’s art. Merit Wins The sales of Studebaker cars for the past six years have shown each and every year a progressive increase. 81,880 cars were sold in the first six months of 1923 as against 60,053 for the same period last year. Only products of merit can make such growth. The Studebaker Corporation of America’ M. IRVING JESTER $'TU DE B AK:E K A A. R. Erskine, President 193 ARCH ST. Y EAR
