Fisher Body Craftsman’s Guild Open to Boys W. 0. Wooley, of New Britain Buick Co., local Buick dealers, an- nounces intense interest among the boys of New Britain in the Fisher | Body Craftsman's Guild which was founded by the Fisher Body Cor- poration to advance and honor the | art of fine workmanship among boys of high school age. Four university scholarships and more than 900 other awards ha been proivded for the boys who build the best miniature model Napoleonic coaches— from which the “Body by IMisher" emblem was derived. These awards total $50,000 and include, besides the scholar- ships $16,000 in gold and 96 trips to Detroit as guests of the Fisher Body Craftsman’s Guild. ““All the boy has to do to enroil is to come in to our show room,” says Mr. Wooley, “and fill out the enrollment card and we will in- struct him as to the details of the Guild.” All boys between the ages of 12 and 19 are eligible to enroll- ment. The Guild is endorsed by leading educators and its prime pur- pose is to further the development of manuel skill among the boys of today. Ford Salvages More Than 30,000 Old Cars More than 30,000 old automobiles have been salvaged by the Ford Mo- tor Company since it began the sal- vage work as an experiment early this year. The salvage line is now averaging 600 cars and trucks a day from Detroit and vicinity. Old cars are purchased from deal- ers who take them as part payment on new Fords. On the saivage line everything in them is reclaimed to serve some useful purpose. Artifi- cial leather is made into aprons, up- Lolstery goes into hand pads, floor boards serve as crate tops, glass is sed for window panes, and metal utilized in the making of steel. Cars of all makes find their way to the salvage line—a moving con- « « « SALES .‘,r.v, el velvelvelsolsale N veyor on which the cars ride slow ly along while workmen strip them of their varlons materials.

Overheated Ovens Held Responsible for Fires Hartford, Oct. 20 — TWo fires, at- tributed to overheated ovens, caused damage in a Farmington avenue apartment and a Park street factory yesterday. It was shortly after 4 o'clock in the afternoon when a stubborn blaze at the Kenilworth Arms caused tenants in the north wing to leave the building. Damage was estimated at $1,000. The Center Fire department at West Hartford carlier in the afternoon had answer- ed an alarm at the same apartment where firemen believed they pre- vented a fire from resulting from an overheated gas oven by discon- necting a flue pipe leading to the ceiling. They left after failing to find any indication of fire in the partitions where the blaze later broke out again.

Many features of design and con- struction contribute to Reo’s silent motoring. There is the aerodynamic design which thrusts the car like a knife-blade through the air. There is the extreme quiet of Reo's first eight-cylinder engine, an L-head straight eight. There is the famous Reo transmission with silent second gear. But over and above all these. Reo has constructed a coach that in every fitting and part is built and heavily insulated to discourage and prevent noises. FIREARMS EXPERT STUDIES BULLETS Shots Taken From Burdick’s Body Will Be Studied Westerly, R. I, Oct. 20 (UP)— Three of four or five bullets fired in the murder of former State Senator town farmer, were sent today to Captain Charles J. Van Amburgh, Massachusetts state firearms expert. Captain Van Amburg, a nationally recognized ballistics authority, was asked to determine the calibre of the weapon employed and to photo- graph markings on the bullets. Three men, two of them negroes. were released last night from the local jail where they had been held for questioning. Police said their release did not end their connection with the case. One of those re- leased had been held because his shoes fitted footprints found in the road near the Burdick farmhouse. He offered an alibi, however. Police today resumed their search for a leather billfold believed to have been in Burdick’s left trouser pocket when he was slain. The pocket was found turned inside out. It was thought the billfold would be found in dense underbrush. STUDY THESE SENSATIONAL PRICES!
