Chapel Hill Chatf

The automobile manufactur-
ers responded to my appeal of
two or three years ago, for
brighter-colored bodies, and now
the streets and roads every
where present a far more cheer
full appearance. No longer do
cars parked at the curb resem-
BILE a row of ugly beetles; rather
do their varied hues call to mind
the gay plumage of birds. l am
thankful for this change. But
Mr.. Ford hasn't paid any heed
to my suggestion about the posi-
tion of the doors in his two-door
sedan.
M. C. S. Mobiles letter to De-
troit was more successful than
mine. He wrote that he was
growing old and feared his driv-
ing days would be over before
his new Model A was delivered
to him. And he got action. De-
troit sent a message to the Char
lotte plant, and Charlotte sent
message to Bruce Strowd, and
one of Mr.. Strowd's men went to
Charlotte and fetched Mr..
Mobiles coupe. All my letter
brought was reply from a sec
retary saying that my sugges-
tion would be called to Mr.. Ford's
attention. That was many
months back.
Never. mind am confident
that Mr.. Ford will make this
improvement some day, al
though he may never know that
| was the one who advised it.
What | propose is that he leave
the left door where it is, by the
drivers seat, but move the right
door back so that passengers
can get to and from the rear
seat without disturbing the
person in the right front seat.
That is the way the right side
of my old 1928 two-door sedan
is built. After 1928 Mr.. Ford's
designers made the mistake of
moving both doors forward;
what they should have done was
to move the left forward, for the
drivers convenience, land leave
the right where it was. This is
not going to concern me one way
or the other when / get my
Model A, for the type have or
dered is the four-door; but the
two-door will continue to be
manufactured by the tens of
thousands, and the people who
use It ought to be made as COM
Portable as possible. Every time
| get into the new two-door / re-
fleet upon how much better the
left side is built, compared with
my rickety old 1928 sedan, and
how much worse the right side.
The good left of the new should
be combined with the good right
of the old.
