PLAN FOR AUTO
SHOW GREATER
THAN CHICAGO'S
Manufacturers and Dealers
Find Pointers in Windy
City Not Needed.
SPACE GOING RAPIDLY

"If the auto industry is dead, we are
going to give the grandest wake you ever
saw" declared John B. Orman. manager
of the Indianapolis Auro Show, today
after returning from Chicago, where he
looked EN- over at the Coliseum exhibit
Members and officials of the Indl-
annapolis Trade Association went to chi
cago to see if they could pick up any live
pointers on staging their own event." Mr.
Orman said. but we came away con-
WINGED that our plans to date for the
show we are to hold at the Fair Grounds,
March Z to Il, are even superior to the
exhibit at the so-called national show.
"IndianapoIis manufacturers and deal
ers are enthusiastic over the outlook for
a real business revival, as indicated by
the fact that already. more than month
N advance Of our show, our car space is
oversold and it appears that we will have
to force space-holders to move over a
bit and let late corners have look-in.
Accessory space is going rapidly, also,
and the walls of the big manufacturers
building at the Fair Grounds will likely
be bulging by the time the gong rings for
the big event "
MORE INTEREST
THAN IN PAST.
Mr. Orman declares that never before
has there been so much interest through
out the State in the indianapolis show as
is in evidence this year.
THE fact that n. II. CartinhOur presi-
dent of the indianapolis Trade Associa-
ton. is also president of the State su-
tOmobive dealers organization. may have
some bearing on this situation says
Mr.. Orman. ''but I take it that dealers
and intending purchasers throughout In
diana re4liZe this viii be golden OPP
portEnity for seeing all the many hand
some models under one roof, and that it
also indicates there is q lot Of life left
in this old corpse as some people nave
imagined, the auto industry"
Elaborate decorations will be amplifed
by a doubling Of the lighting system,
creating a night effect Of intense beauty,
and special musical attractions will be
offered. Arran gements are teing made
for special nights for various organiza-
tions and every effort will be made to
as well.
SEEK ATTENDANCE
BY GENERAL PUBLIC.
Special effort will be made this year 70
induce a larger patronage on the "art
of the general public.
Why should I pay money 70 go in and
sometimes put TO the show managers.
Mr.. Orman declares: 1T is a real saw
ing Of time and effort-besides you get
your moneys worth in high class music
and entertainment"
He points out that if a person inter
ested in automobiles should attempt to
take in the row" he would have to spend
an entire day at it and then not see all
Of them-and perhaps not see many OF
them under the most favorable circum-
stances.
I'VE come not to bury Caesar (the
auto), but to praise him" asserts Or
man. "and we certainly want to urge the
people of indianapolis and the entire
State TO come in and participate in this
glorious wake which we will show is
the biggest resurrection of a dead one
the public ever had the pleasure Of at
tending"
