Night Driving Is Simplified Greatly
IF DRIVERS ARE POLITE
Light Engineers Are Making Progress

Detroit, March l7.-More Of US will
enjoy night driving Is well as We do
motoring by day once we use our
headlights as the designers intended,
once we look after them as closely as
We do the engine, and once the var
iols states crack down on motorists
driving cars with poorly focused, glar-
ing beams.
The headlights on three fourths of
the cars In use today provide efficient
illumination. If they are maintained
and used properly, says r. N. Falge,
headlighting research engineer.
Fact Is, only very low percentage
Of drivers watch their lights as they
do the rest Of the car. and these &C.
tually prefer driving by night to mo-
toring through heavier traffic by day,
Falge says.
Present laws in many states are
based on the single beam headlight
Ing arrangement Of some Is years
ago. and these laws required drivers
to keep their lights properly focused,
besides keeping the bulbs down to q
comparatively low candle power.
New Types In Use
But the double beam headlight long
has taken the place Of the single

Explains Automatic Clutch
While there has been considerable
talk about automatic this ana "au.
tCmatic that" on the modern motor
car, the general pubic Is interested
In mechanical details to the extent
that they want to know all Of the
why's" and "wherefores." according
to Harry Heath, Service Director OF
the Plymouth Motor Corporation.
Heath has reduced to language that
the average motorist would under
stand, the advantages Of the auto
r:latic clutch on the new 1894 De Luxe
Piymouth,-how 1t works and its di.
rect contribution to effortless driving
Although many car owners are In
terested In how an automatic clutch
works, the majority are more interest
ed In what 1t does" Heath said. 1.-THE
explanation Of how the automatic
clutch works In the 1894 De Luxe
Plymouth Is simple matter. All that
Is necessary In the functioning Of THU
clutch, which has been perfected ia
the highest degree, Is q valve con-
trolled by the accelerator. When the
accelerator Is released, vacuum from
the intake manifold Immediately re.
leases the clutch. When the acceler-
ator Is depressed, . valve ia the Va.
cuum line closes and the clutch u
permitted to engage.
THE rate Of engagement OF the
clutch Is governed by the speed Of the
car. There Is no possibility OF too
sudden engagement even when the
accelerator Is pushed clear to the
floorboard.

mechanism operates the clutch more
efficiently than the average driver
can do it with his or her foot. Il has

These still are problems for head

the ground with customary form.
Thus far, the 'Bama boys have been
ironing out the muscle kinks in kick

Coach Thomas would not commit him

for a heavy scrimmage this afternoon.
The new defense was repeatedly

Reliable sources indicated that Ala

powerful to achieve an average OF more
than 80 points per game during its
regular season, will not be altered in
any radical manner.
