AUTO SHOW TO
Give COMPLETE
MOTOR PICTURE
Passenger and Commercial
Models in Various Glasses
Entered.

When the doors of the Manufac-
turers building at the State Fair
ground open Saturday to "Indiana's
greatest auto show" visitors are to
be greeted with one of the most
complete motor exhibits since the
shows were started in 1910.
In view of the public response at
the national show, now in progress
in New York, w. j. Robinson, 1ndi
annapolis show manager, is optimistic
about indianapolis silver jubilee ex-
position.
A full line of motor cars and sew
eral lines of commercial cars will be
shown and in addition, there will
be numerous displays of accessories,
finance and insurance companies
and other allied businesses.
Precedes Chicago Event
indianapolis, according to Mr..
Robinson, is recognized as one of the
most auto conscious cities in the
United States, and this year will be
the first Midwestern city TO dis
play new car models after the ma
tional show. For the first time in
many years, the indianapolis show
will precede the Chicago exhibit.
Followers of the industry declare
that the opening of this years ma
tional show, revealed many out
standing developments in the auto
motive field.
Marked Progress Made
From the improvement standpoint,
show visitors will find 1886 models

new PRODUCT
OF CHEVROLET
SHOWS CHANGES
Advances in Performance,
Engineering and Styling
Noted.

The new Master Deluxe and
Standard Chevrolets for 1886 intro
duced in indianapolis and simultan-
eously throughout the country at
dealer showrooms. embody marked
advances in styling, engineering and
performance, according to E. w.
Berger, Indianapolis zone manager
for Chevrolet Motor Co.
The Master Deluxe, offered with
either knee action or conventional
springing, has been restyled in its
more important appearance ele-
ments, notably by the adoption of a
higher and narrower grille of dis
tinctively original design in combin-
nation with new treatment Of the
hood louyres, new style headlampS
mounted on the sides of the radiator
shell, and new interior trim.
The lower priced standard models
have been completely redesigned in
chassis and bodies. Last year the
standards differed materially both
in appearance and in construction
from the masters; this year, the two
lines are identical in all major fea-
lures of styling, engineering and
performance, the chief difference be-
ing only matter of wheelbase.
Outstanding among the many new
features Of both models for 1886 are
perfected hydraulic brakes; i'm
proved engines having higher COM
preston ratio-6 to 1-balanced car
buretor, full-length water jacketing
and other changes resulting in bet
ter cooling and improved gasoline
and oil economy, and cromodine
rust prevention on tenders and run
ming boards.
Front doors of all models of both
lines are now hinged at the front
The solid steel turret top, eXclu
sive last year with the master mod
els, has been adopted this year for
the standard line also. Spoke-type
pressed steel wheels, instead of wire
wheels, are used on all standard
models
Body interiors of master models
show marked advances in comfort
and style. An important innovation
is found in the design of the front
seating arrangement of the master
coach and town sedan. Instead of
the usual divided and hinged front
seat Of tWo-door models, single seat
cushion extends the flIll width of
the car, permitting three passengers
to ride comfortably. The seat back
is divided, the right side section be
ing hinged to fold forward over the
seat cushion to open a passageway
to the rear compartment.
Prices on the two new lines range
from $495 to 5000 for the standard
models and $500 to $665 for the mas
ter models.

superior to the fondest engineering
dream of even less than 10 years
ago. According to automotive lead
ers, 1886 will stand out in motor his
tory as a year of extraordinary
progress.
Despite the wide difference in
price range, all 1886 models empha-
size appearance, performance, safe
ty and economy. Streamlining is
the keynote; engineering ingenuity

TOURING CARS
DECREASE IN
NUMBERS

Touring cars, once the only
model available to automobile buy
ers, have virtually passed from
the picture.
Only little more than / per cent
Of all the millions Of cars manu-
factured nowadays are open cars,
1t was revealed today in connec-
ton with the 1896 automobile
show. And Of that slim margin
most of the open cars are sports
roadsters.
The reason for this decline Of
the touring car, it was stated, is
the advance in ventilation and
heating of closed cars, making 1t
equally comfortable to ride in q
closed automobile in summer and
winter.
Automobiles Of the 1885 vintage
are for. the most part brighter
in color than in past years.
More colorful trimmings are also
emphasized in the new cars.
Latest fashions will go on dis
play tonight and tomorrow night
in the General Motors Exhibition
section of the Mayflower Hotel.
Clothes from Lansburgh's will be
shown in the fashion review,
which will be held each night at
$50 p. m.
Buying at both the General
Motors show at the Mayflower
and the auto show at Calvert Ex-
hibit Hall appears to have been
stimulated by the knowledge that
the trade-in value Of old cars will
be much less in January than
right now.
