DBMND FOR CLOSEDCARS Erwin Jennings Says Three out of Five Open C a r Owners want to Change \ ‘- In the closed car idea lies the hope of prosperity for the motor car industry." said Erwin X. Jen- nings, Hudson- Bale: distributor today. "The big business in the next few years will be replacing open can with enclosed ones. “It is a fact that three out of five open-car owners want enclosed cars. That means that the present pro- ponderance of open care will have to be reversed in favor of a. balance of enclosed ones. "Just that market alone is going to keep the automobile business ac- tive. and that means that the related lines of textiles. leather. lumber and metal will likewise be busy and prosperous. ‘ “Since Hudson became a specialist in encldaed cars. its factory has been operated at maximum speed. and today is turning out more Super- Sixes than ever before in its history in an attempt to catch up with pub- lic demand. “Let us annalyze what the coach is. To the public it is an enclosed car at an open car price. To the manufacturer. it is an enclosed. car so designed that it can be manu- facturod in volume under the best scientific progressive ~annemb1y me- thods. with very great economies due to its volume. To the dealer it is a car which sells very fast and costly. and which therefore does not pile up varioua high sales expenses. All down the line, the Coach in a product which can be supplied to the customer at an extraordinary price. without the slightest compro- mise in the quality of materials or workmanship." mambo AT WORLD SERIES Shufelt Bros, Durant and Star Car Deal- ers, Tell Interesting Facts About Autoist at Big Games "One of the unusual sights of the recent “'orld's Baseball Sex-lea. be- tween the two New York clubs. the Yankees. of the American League. and the Giants, of the National League. was the enormous number of cars purked within walking dis- tance of the diamonds." rays Shufelt Brothers. local denier in Rurant and Star Cars. "Each day before the games be- gan. thousands of cars from many states were parked near il‘a Polo Grounds or the Yankee Stadium. in which the games were alternately played. “There were big cars and little cars. new cars and old. but nowhere was a horse visible. A few of. the old timers recalled when tied to the fence oi' the Polo Grounds diving the series were houndreds of horses with all sorts of wagons. carriages and buggies. Those days have gone. never to return. The speeding up of Nana- portailon has been balanced by the speeding up of baseball. “How to find one’s own car among thousands might at first seem a pro- blem. but parking regulations and the care of the traffic poiics- ~quad Simplified matters to a great degree.
