Year.

Clarke G, Powell. secretary Of the Omaha
Automobile Dealers association. was
elected sole manager Of the Omaha Auto
mobile show 70 be held IN 1912 at 2 meeting
OF the association held Wednesday night
Mr., Powell, aided by willard Hosford,
maraged the very successful show held at
tho Auditorium in February and was imam
imously chosen as the manager Of the next
auto exhibition. . H..-
In former years the Automobile assOcia-
tlon has always waited until the annual
meeting held in October, to elect both the
officers Of the association and the mana
ger of the show. However, as the Seventh
Omaha Auto show as the EsKt one will
be called, will be a much larger affair
than has ever been held here Before. MIR.
Powell was elected this spring SO as to
allow him plenty of time for preparations.
The number Of dealers who will exhibit
cars next year win be somewhat larger,
three being admitted to the association last
night-the Interstate company, the Marion
company, and the International Harvester
company. This viii make the show larger
and,a was the case this year, unless there
are arrangements made for more space
many Of the dealers viii be forced to show
only part OF their cars
Mr.. Powell plans Hither to build an annex
to the Auditorium for the show week, or
to have balcony Constructed inside the
building and utilize this. The objection
20 the outside annex is that there viii be
dissatisfied ones. among those who are
Obliged to show outside.

May nuiId a Balcony.

II think that II Il is possible a balcony,
built inside OF the Auditorium will be the
best plan. We would arrange to have all
the necessary firms, the lunch stands, and
other similar booths placed on this bal
cony This would leave the stage open
for autos and the cars could be run onto
the stage by means of an inclined plane.
In this way all the pleasure cars can be
shown on the main floor" said Mr.
Powell
I'm the basement the commercial exhibit
win be doubled next year We have ar
ranged a plan already to allow for many
more of the business cars there"
In the report Of the show committee 10
the association quite a dividend was re-
turned 20 the dealers as their part of the
profits Of the show week. The Omaha
dealers made enough out of their show
so that the space bought by each dealer
cost less In Oman than In any ether show
in the country. This was In spite of the
fact that the 1911 Omaha show cost the
dealers a large sum in decorations. music,
and other small things.
The show of next year will have a much
more elaborate decorative scheme than the
one used this year and Manager Powell
promises some innovations for the Omaha
people that win bring the Omaha exhibition
10 an even higher plane; - ..s..i
