airy lines, simply improving them in
some slight details that add to effect.
The line of the hood melts into the
crowl, and the cowl itself has been
made longer The crown tenders are
of deeper design than ever and cling
more closely to the curves of, the
wheels and the lines of the entire car
flow in unbroken curves from the ra-
diator back to the tail lamp. Grace IL
the dominant note of the whole design,
and while the new cars are larger
than ever and more massive in looks,
they are among the handsomest cars
that have ever been produced.
One of the notable features of the
cars is the new unique arrangement Of
the seats The drivers seat, for ex-
ample, Is shaped so that both the
driver and the passenger riding with
him have separate seats. This is a
change that owners who drive their
own cars will great appreciate. The
tonneau is roomier than ever. and the
auxiliary seats are of entirely new
design, developed by Studebaker within
the last year. Instead of folding back
against the sides of the car or up
against the back OF the front seat,
they sink down into recesses in the
floor, completely disappearing when
not in use And thus extra room and
ease OF entrance and exit from the
tonneau is provided.
Exceptional care has been paid to
the upholstery of the new cars. The
leather used is the finest grade of
genuine hand buffed leather on the
market. 1t is the Studebaker claim
that no better leather can be bought
at any price. 1t is straight-grain,
semi-bright finish, and is tufted with
high grade OF curled hair. Deeper
coiled springs give more resilency.
The principal feature and that OF
deepest concern to motorists is the
greatly Increased power of the new
Studebaker motor Hills and rutted
roads will have no further terrors for
the possessor Of a new Studebaker
Brake tests on the four have developed
4115. and on the six 541s horse power
This added power has been secured in
one way by enlarging the bore of the
motor to 3 rs inches. For another
the carburetor has ben transferred to
the left side OF the motor, lessening
the distance for the gas to travel and
| giving it freer passage. A separate
intake manifold is another important
| factor in securing a wider range OF
ability for the motor.
Electrical System.
The electrical system for starting
and lighting the new cars is the wei
known Wagner two-unit type. whici
was developed four years ago exclu
sively for Studebaker cars, and which
has been wonderfully successful or
more than 10000 cars since then. The
