FRIGIDAIRE ANNOUNCES
MANY MECHANICAL CHANGES

A new and much changed Frigid
aire, amazingly quiet, with still
more beautiful lines, new color
combinations, higher efficiency anC
many other outstanding improve
ments is announced by Frigidaire
Corporation, subsidiary of General
Motors. 1t is presented in nineteen
different models, forming three dis
tinct lines, with a wider range of
prices.
Designed after months of work by
an engineering department of $50
employees, proven in numerous test
rooms and in the field, decorated by
eminent stylists, the new Frigidaire
is the elimination of sixteen years
in experimental work and twelve
years in the actual manufacture of
both household and commercial re-
frigerating equipment, according to
John r. Wilson, local representa-
tive.

portant and progressive steps in the
history of our organization" said
Mr.. Wilson. ut establishes a mile
stone in the history of refrigeration,
proves again the superiority of Cen
eral Motors engineering and reem-
phasizes Frigidaire's long establish
ed leadership in the field of auto
matte refrigeration.

the condenser instantly drives heat
taken from the food storage COM
partment through the rear of the
cabinet into the open air. Two fans
circulate air over a newly designed
condenser, constituting truly
scientific solution of the heat re-
moval problem. This change in de-
sign makes it possible to transform
the lower part of the cabinet into a
broad, unbroken panel. Lowers
are eliminated, thus removing the
last trace of the mechanical from

pleasing and symmetrical lines of
