AUTOMOBILE MOVING PICTURE
TO BE SHOWN IN WILDWOOD

"The Story of an Automobile NOV
ing picture will be shown at the High
School Auditorium on Friday even
ing, April Goth.
Machines representing the last word
in manufacturing efficiency perform
spectacular operations of almost every
conceivable description.
Red hot steel is forged into axle
shafts by a few blows from gigantic
steam hammers. Molten metal is cast
into intricate designs. Bars of steel
are cut by a huge knife as if they
shafts are twisted until they break
to be sure that they are capable of
withstanding far beyond anything the
most excessive road use would de-
mand.
This film vas produced under the
direction of the United States Depart
ment of Commerce in cooperation
with the Studebaker Corporation and
will be shown in all parts of the
world. 1t was photographed in the
new 500, 600, 900 Studebaker plant at
South Bend, Ind.
The story is told in an inspiring and
simple way and shows, in an intensely
interesting manner, the many oper-
atoms used in the building of an au-
tomobile. The picture follows the as
semb1y line with units added in logical
order, each unit being traced through
out it's manufacture before the next is
applied.
This motion picture is even more
interesting than a trip through the
factory because many details which
escape the eye are caught by the
camera.
Through the courtesy of Robert G.
Pierpont, Studebaker dealer, this pic
ture has been obtained for a show
ing in Wildwood. No admission will
be charged. The picture will be shown
at Cape May Wednesday afternoon,
April 18th, and in the evening of the
same day at Cape May Court House.
