89-YEAR OLD VETERAN
PAINTS EARL C00PER'S
ENTRY IN BIG RACE
Finish OF StudebakerSpecial Is Work
Of Man Who Painted Vehicles
Nearly 20 Years Ago.

Some weeks ago Earl Cooper ant
his mechanician, Earl Dutton, were
tuning up the Studebaker Special ou1
in Los Angeles, after winning a race
on the west coast. They noticed q
snowy-haired veteran who was in.
tenseIy interested.
He used to keep his eyes focused Oh
the tiny Studebaker. The car seemed
to have some strange fascination fol
him. Both Dutton and Cooper noticed
it. So one day Cooper said to him:
mister, you seem to admire that
Il idget gas gondola. Does it look
good to you?"
He laughed, and, swear there were
tears in his eyes. He put his hand
affectionally on the radiator, and
said
"Son, that car is just like a grand
son of mine. Just like my own flesh
and blood. Why! When was youth
l was helpin' to make Studebakers
myself"
ayes, l was hired by Glen and J.
M. Studebaker, back in South Bend
nearly 70 years ago, to paint the car
riages they made. We took blessed
lot of pride in fixin' up those car
riages. And now-here's this Stude-
baker racer. Some different from the
old carriages, but still Studebaker.' -
The aged man was N. M. Hender-
shott, 89-years old, one Of Los Ange-
les oldest citizens. When he was 10
years old he was painting Studebaker
wagons and carriages. And so Earl
Cooper, deciding to repaint his car,
delighted him by suggesting that he
paint it if he desired.
The veteran set to work. He mixed
the colors. He worked night and
day.
At the speedway here, during the
trials, you see a sleek racing car,
whizzing around the track. It is Robin
Egg Blue, trimmed in gold. A vivid,
unique and eye-arresting sight.
No carriage Of old received more
painstaking attention. Hurting thru
space it carries the blessing of an
old-time master painter of long ago.
