 of New Fisk Tires

The United Tyre Sales O., with its retail store at 219 East Main street and its tyre. rebuilding factory at S6 Jefferson street, is now in a position to offer the motoring pulp lic of Naugatuck Valley the most complete tire service that has ever been offered in this section. This popular firm which has been oper- ating in Waterbury for over IS years has one of the finest available selec- tions of new, used, recapped and re- treated tyres for passenger and commercial cars in addition to 9 complete line of automobile supplies.
 United Tyre now features the complete line of famous "Fisk" Tires, including the sensational new Fisk "Saf-ti- Flight"
 "Gabe" Berardino, president and treasurer of United Tyre, has spared no expense in the building and equipping of his new factory branch on Jefferson street, and he cordially invites the public to visit this amaz- ingly modern plant during autonlo- bile week to see his trained workers skillfully reconstruct tires and the newest and most modern apparatus for this kind of work.

Sweeping improvement in design, with resultant gains not only in eye appeal but in roominess as well, is apparent in the new 1941 Chevro- Gets, on display now. Underlying the Outward changes, so obvious at @ glance, are chassis and engine refine ments whose aggregate effect, the engineers announce, is noteworthy advance in power, smoothneSS, rid ing ease, and durability.
 The new Chevrolets are offered In two series, Special De Luxe and Master De Luxe, both with knee action. The famous Chevrolet pacuum power shift is standard on all models of both series at no Ndded cost. The two new series are Identical in power plant, chassis, and body fundamentals, but differ bn standard equipment, decoration, end trim. Inspection of either, how ever, amply bears out the statement Shat n 1941, luxury fully compar- able with that of costly cars is available in the low-price field.
 Immediately apparent, to one see- gng the new Chevrolets for the first time, is their greater size. The cars are longer, wider, and lower. and Gheir appearance of massiveness has been intensified by liberal high Fighting with chromium and stain eess steel. All appearance units, from bumper to bumper have been fedeSigned in keeping with the new style motif to produce a swift appearing streamlined car.
 Hood Redesigned
 The new radiator grille con- tributes much to the ensemble. The whole assembly is enclosed in chromium-plated die cast frame, which replaces the stamped frame of the previous years grille, and the chromium plated horizontal bars are deeper and more widely spaced. Dividing the gille vertically is a chromium plated die-cast moulding Elrmounted by shield with the Chevrolet monogram. Judicious use is made of red diagonal bars to re- neve the expanse of chrome.

Safety Rim'' Wheel
 Cuts Blowout Hazard
Plymouth Wheel, at Speed Above 40, Flat Tire Gives
 Same Effect as lO-POund Air Pressure in Tube

Plymouth models throughout the line.
 Secret of this newest highway safety advancement, value of which must be measured in terms of acci- dents prevented and possibly actual saving of life, lies in the special for nation of the rim that securely locks the tire in place on the wheel.
 This formation prevents the bead of the tire from working loose when air pressure inside the tire is sud- denly released. On the new Ply mouth wheel, at speeds above 40, a completely flat tire gives the same driving effect as having about 10 lbs air pressure left in the tire.
 Bodies retain all the safety fea- lures for which Plymouth received the 1940 national award from Saf- ety Engineering magazine, and in addition present important added safety design details.
 Automatic door checks on the new 1941 Special Deluxe models prevent doors from closing while driver or passenger is entering the car. Trunk lids are counterbalanced, move cas- fly up or down at 8 touch or remain in any position without support thus preventing accidental falling of the lid.
 This years new safety signal'' speedometer has translucent needle designed for better night vis- ibility of the warning light that changes color-green, amber or red for different driving speeds. Above 30 miles per hour, this translucent needle changes from green to ann Der, and above 50, changes again to warning red.
 On the new, restyled instrument panel, all instruments and controls are again grouped back of the wheel out of the way-with the rest of the board smoothly rounded and free from dangerous projections of any kind.
 Other important safety features are retained in the latest models from previous years-among them special Plymouth developments for which the company was honored with this years safety award. The citation mentioned:
 Safety-steel body-with electric ally-welded roof, walls and floor forming one rigid, protective unit; safety upholstery inside the car with rubber and cotton padding wherever bumps might occur; door handles and window regulators curved inward to prevent catching sleeves or causing injury; safety glass throughout of special kinds adapted to each application. Also pioneer design of precision type hydraulic brakes and improve ment to their present eff1ciency; speedometer warning signals that change color as the needle moves up; rotary door iatches that hold doors securely and separate locks on sedan rear doors so children can not open them accidentally; rounded instrument boards with projections eliminated, and other safety first details.

 Engine Refirements
Sweeping Improvements in Designs Noted in l04l
 MOdeIs-Vacuum Power Shift at No Added Cost

The redesigned hood is consider ably wider, to conform to the wider grille and larger body. Valleys be- tween the hood and the front lenders are eliminated completely. The hood Is of the same front opening alligator-jaw type as in l94O, but its latching lever is re- located ct make it more theft resistant.
 The 1941 Sealde- Beam headlampS are blended into the front lenders, of which their housings are an integral part. They are spaced 5 1-8 inches farther apart than before, and are slightly neare the gound, and in thie new location give superior lighting of the raod. Flush type parking lamps are placed just below the headlamps.
 The front lenders sweep back and merge imperceptibly into the body, along whose lower edge a marked invocation has been in- troduced. The running board has been eliminated; yet the sfaety and convenience provided by that mem- Der have been retaind. This has been done by concealing, beneath the lower edge of the doors, a sturdy safety step, which is part of the body structure proper, and which is surfaced with heavily ribbed rubber. The step is visible only when the door is opened. At all other times, the side of the car presents a sleek, unbroken appear ance, the door panels following the contour of the door column pillar to which the rear doors are hinged, and terminating at the bottom in a gaceful outward flare which har- monizes perfectly with the cars overall design. Sleekness is further accentuated by concealment of all the door hinges, by relocation of exterior door handles over the body belt moulding, and by removal of the door lock from the handle to the door itself. Locks are now pro vided on both front compartment doors.

HUDSON FEATURES
 SYMPHONIC STYLE
New Value Choice of Color HarmOnies as Basic Fac=
 tor of DeSirability

Symphonic Styling spotlights an entirely new value in motor cars. This new value is choice of color harmonies-long known to fashion stylists, architects and interior deco- rators as basic factor of desirabil- ity-but new to- the automobile in- dustry this year as 8 standard item in full line of cars in regular pro- duction.
 This new value is sensed the mo- ment you open the doors of a new Hudson, just as perfectly appoint ed home is first glimpsed from the threshold. There is a completeness about the vehicle the interior seems to belong individually to that particular car. This harmonious re- lationShip between interior color combinations and exterior coiors, we have named Symphonic Styling. Prior to the public announcement of the new models, an interesting experiment was tried. A number of the country's leading fashion ex- perts were invited to a preview of this new color harmony style idea. Their enthusiastic reactions con- firmed the belief that color harmony as exemplif1ed by Symphonic Styl- ing, was rnuch-needed contribu- tion to motor car beauty. In charac- teristic feminine fashion they said :: l "It's exciting to know that at last we have choice of color harmonies in cars as well as in clothes and the other fine things we buy"
 Since then, by public recognition, Symphonic Styling has become a value--an added worth to the auto- mobile dollar. Many believe that during the coming year this new Hudson color harmony style de- velopment will take its permanent place in the industry along with safety, beauty, comfort and per- formance.
