New Body Type in
Closed Cars Ready

In the new Essex Coach, according
to officials Of the company attending
the show, a distinct departure has
been made from the conventional
method of building enclosed cars
Briefly, the simplicity Of manufacture
which the automobile industry has ap.
piled to motors and frames has nov
been extended into the building Of
bodies
With this simplified construction,
Essex Motors has been able 10 put on
the market q well-finished enclosed
car at very slightly higher price
than an open body.
Visitors at the show will observe
that the new body-type is not only
symmetrical in lines but that It is
substantially built, and OF convenient
and adequate size for its five pas
sengers. The painting. fittings and
finish are quite up to standard.
The real idea behind the coach is
that Essex Motors believes there are
great number of purchasers who
now they have been unwilling to pay
the rather considerable advance I'm
price over the open-body types. For
urban use, the coach has the valuable
facility of slipping in and out OF
small parking spaces and the quick
Essex pickup is convenience in elud-
ing traffic jams.

with an equal display OF scoring
power which the Longhorns found
difficult TO stop. and knotted the
score. The half ended with the local

half was a fight throughout. by q
fine display OF shooting the southern

by final spurt, the visitors nosed
ahead. finally trlumphing by 25.21
