 It will be the second start for the youngsters. Elmer was started last week against the Elks and had he been given support in the pinches would have won. Converse held the Elks hard in check a few days ago for five innings but weakened in the sixth.
 The lads look like pitching finds and with more experience will be valuable additions to the league roster. Their work tonight will be watched with interest.

.HAWLEY HEARD in

HIGHWAY BRIDGES
OFFICIAL OF TEXAS OIL co.
GIVES ADDRESS AT MEET
ING OF KIWANIS CLUB RE-
GENTLY I'm MIAMI

Cecil HawIey, director of roads
reports for the Texas Oil Com
pany, who, with Mrs. Hawley, was
here as the guest of William r.
Porter and left for Havana on the
invitation of Tirso Mesa, mayor OF
Havana, has returned and proceed
ed TO Miami.
In that city Mr.. Hawley gave an
interesting talk before the Kiwan-
is Club which is carried in the
columns of the Miami Herald OF
this date.
Discussing the question of the
Overseas highway bridges, he said
that within two years after the
proposed bridges are completed
Miamians may reasonably expect
that at least 10000 automobiles
each carrying two or more per-
sons, to stop in Miami during that
period Of the year when tourist
movement now is practically nil.
"These tourists would result in
the distribution of more than 49,
100000 in Miami, Mr.. Hawley
said, which would seem to war
rant the support of every resource
of the community in order to in
sure the granting of a loan of APP
proximately $1l,000,000 by the
Reconstruction Finance Corpora.
|tion for the construction Of the
bridges.
"A majority of the tourists
would be Northern office workers,
Mr.. Hawley explained, who have
become fishing conscious in the
last few years. Recognizing this
fact, he referred to the bridges as
the Florida fishing bridges and
said they would appeal especially
to office workers who have but 9
brief vacation.
with the completion of the
bridges and the publicity the pro-
jcct would attract in the press the
attention Of fishermen of the
North would be intrigued by the
fact they can drive down here and
|experience the thrills of deep sea
fishing with the minimum expense,
The owners of fishing boats also
will benefit, Mr.. Hawley said, be
cause after these tourists have
spent a day or two fishing off the
bridges it is certain that several
will combine to make q party going
out to deeper water off shore in
the hope of catching even larger
fish
During his stay in Havana, Mr..
Hawley said he was assured by
Mayor Tirso Mesa that Cuba Is
looking forward to the completion
of the bridges because it will facili.
tate the interchange of tourists
with Florida"

Bright, Cheerful Tones
Marks Auto CoLors

Thousands who viii attend the
automobile show will see some
thing this year that has no prece-
dent in the history of the motor
car. The new automobiles, having
achieved almost. human intelli-
gence with their magical improve
ments in silent gears, free wheel
ing, motor cushioning, easier
riding and more comfortable and
opulent upholstery, have now
taken on body designs with the
stream line idea carried much
farther than ever before.
Then there are endleSsly ex'
citing novelties in horns, velvet
carpets, assist straps, arm rests,
silk curtains, ash receivers, in
strument boards and other things
that delight the women especially,
and they should be delighted, for
it is really the women and their
demands for greater comfort in
riding, lower bodies for safety
and smartness, and for more
beauty inside and out Of the car
that have, to a great extent
The Washington times., 1932-01-30

brought the American automobile
up to its present plane of perfec-
ton.
For instance, the creations of
the Gobelin tapestry works in
France, whose secret methods of
making dyes impart a matchless
glory to their colors, have fur
nished some of the ideas. Sevres
porcelain, manufactured just out
side of Paris, furnished some rich
suggestions in the value of sim
plicity in color treatment. The
famous couturiers Of Paris also
helped in colors and suggestions
for ensembles.
The general trend of auto
colors this year is toward bright
and cheerful tones. Blue leads,
green is a close second, brown is
third in Importance, and highly
luminous grays are also popular.
Relatively few maroons are shown,
and black, which was the leading
color last year, has dropped to
fifth place this season.

NEW CARS HAVE
F. SEX APPEAL

Not many years ago, automo.
bile designers gave scant atten.
ton to the feminine side Of the
picture. In recent years, how.
ever, the progressive car manufac-
turer gives much attention to de-
signing cars to meet feminine ap-
proval.
This attention is not devoted to
providing cars of striking appear
ance and modern design. They
must incorporate more than that.
With women driving almost as
much as men, the modern car
must be designed for pleasing ap-
pearance, ease of handling, riding
comfort, general all-around per-
formance and minor details that
contribute to the pleasure Of mo-
toring.
The 1882 Willys- Overland Skies
and Fights on display at the auto
show are characteristic Of this
modern trend toward feminine ap-
peal. Every detail Of convenience
has been provided in these new,
flashing cars that bring a new
conception Of driving pleasure to
women. The arrangements Of the
controls and simplicity of opera.
ton are among their chief at
fractions, while the trim lines,
luxurious upholstery. tasteful ap-
pointments and smart C.1crs pre-.
sc.l11 pleasing appear e Of style
unusual in such low price fields.
