AS Jeff rode toward McCloud
y picture of Monica Gentry
fingered in his mind. 80.
She was a pretty thing, per
haps handsome would describe
hen more aptly for there was a
certain boldness in her features
that was too definite for mere
.prettiness. Sophisticated and
money-spoiled, he thought. with
the outer veneer of hardness that
was effected by her little social
world. He suspected that the We
neer was brittle and would crack
quite easily under certain cir
cumstances.
Linda hadn't mentioned Mon
lea by name; he wondered If she
had been included in Linda's gen.
eral denunciation of the Gentry
clan. Gentry war prohteer, she
had said, characteristics like that
were often inherent.
In appearance, McCloud hadn't
changed greatly during the past
four years. 1t had grown but there
was a temporary jerry-built air
about the new construction. jeff
noted that anyone with an empty
stable or store had knocked 1t
into the semblance of a habita-
ton and rented it. Men in lewis
and grimey miners outfits far OUT
numbered those in ranch clothes
but there was the usual line OF
horses hitched to rails bordering
the high sidewalks. He tied Pa
checo's palomino before a feed
store.
The first person he saw was Ira
Benson, the coroner. He Saw the
man give a startled gasp and turn
away, his weak face twitching
with excitement. jeff strobe after
him and put his hand on Benson's
thin shoulder turning him around
1t was like touching the limp
body of dead snake.

How Many New Cars In 1917?

miles to Grand Rapids, an airliner was caught,
and the goods rushed to Georgia.
Another car manufacturer, facing shut
down when wheel rim supplies became tied
up, happened to spot 1l,O25 surplus Army
rims in WAA warehouse in Nebraska. After
flying the rims to its plant, the automobile

near depression levels, producing only one
passenger car for every three scheduled.
Shortages of materials plagued the indus
try. The ccmplexity of the passenger car -
1900 parts composed of 800 different materi-
ais proved decided headache. Failure to
get one key part usually meant output halted.
Unpoetic production people were overheard
mumbling something about the lack of
horseshoe nail" The ancient fable had a
timely parallel in postwar Detroit, the city
that once Dragged it had doomed the horse.
Hudson Motor Company, for example,
lacked an eight-cent clip to fasten the seat
springs to Foamite cushions. Then the wire
cushion springs themselves became short, and
rather than pile up cars, Hudson sent them
to dealers without rear seat cushions.

GREY-HAIRED, solemn Charles E. Wilson,
president of General Motors, observed: The
trouble is bottlenecks. Recently we were

fifty per cent to our costs for this item"
Chevrolet engaged special CAT cargo

meet truck loaded with 5000 pounds of
window channels made by an AmesbHry,
Mass, supplier. BY late afternoon, the plane
landed in Kansas City in time to keep pro-
duction going in Chevrolet body plant.

another source, then its plant was struck.
This particular bearing has groove in its
circular surface. Bearings of the same size
could be obtained but they had no grooves
and their surfaces were hard - very hard.

Nash bought them anyway. A special tool
was designed to hold them and the grooves
were ground, one bearing at time, in Nashs
tool room - and the transmission line kept
going.
Of all the material in short supply, steel is
perhaps the most important. Forty-fve kinds
of steel go into a car. Currently, the motor
industry needs more steel than it can buy.
Hopes are high, however, for the remainder
of l947. New steel mills will soon come into
production. Mid-year, l947, promises to see
steel supplied in far greater quantities.

New fire alarm zones in Marys-

drawn up, it was decided by the
Solons in their regular meeting,
Thursday night. Use of the city
dump was also discussed and
painting of the township trustees

proved.
Request for new fire alarm
zones was presented to Council
by Henry Asman, a member of
the fire department, who pointed
out that the present syytem is
quite confusing. When the new
system goes into effect, there will
be six signals on the siren in
stead of the present five.
The new system will call for
the following number of blasts
for the different zones:

FOUR ACCIDENTS
OCCUR SUNDAY
Ramsey Also Makes
Two Arrests Then

Four automobile accidents were
investigated Sunday by Patrol
man H. G.. Ramsey and two mot
oristS were arrested for traffic
law violations, he reported.
Howard Fawcett, Columbus,
driving a 1941 Pontiac sedan to-
ward Columbus, was unhurt
when he ran into the rear end
of a parked automobile, belong
ing to Clinton Sprague, Plain CT
ty, Rt. 3, on Route 33, a mile
south of New California at LAS
a. m. Sunday.
Sprague had stopped to help a
truck driver and was parked off
the highway. Fawcett told the
Patrolman that a car coming
from the opposite direction sud
denly swerved into his lane of
traffic and he veered to the right
to avoid a head-on collision, thus
hitting Sprague'S car.
Fora Kaufman, Columbus, a
passenger IN hautman'S machine,
was slightly injured but taken to
her home in Columbus. The right
front fender of Kaufman's car
was damaged, as was both the
front and rear of Sprague's mach
inc, a 1880 Ford convertible
coupe.
Minor property damage only
resulted from a collision under
meath the traffic light at New
California at 5:45 p. m. Sunday.
Dan Cheney, Plain City, driving
a 1910 Chevrolet coach, was at
tempting to make left-hand
turn from Route AZ into Route 33,
when he was struck by Marris
Mcfarland, Cleveland. Driving a

the rear in the intersection.

TRUCKER INJURED
in 5O-FOOT FALL

Ernest Daum, Milford Center,
was painfully injured when a
truck he was operating at the
Union Stone co. quarry, near
Watkins, went out of control and
fell over a 50-foot embankment
onto some large boulders.
Mr.. Daum, an employee at the
quarry, was pinned beneath the
wrecked truck for a time and was
rendered unconscious. AS soon as
he could be freed and brought to
the top of the quarry, he was
rushed to st. Anthony's hospital,
Columbus, in the Miller ambul-
ance.
He suffered a broken arm, deep
gaSheS on his head and legs, a
lacerated ear, a broken collar
bone, possible fractured ribs, and
numerous lesser cuts and bruises.
The truck was practically de-
molished.
Although the actual cause of
the trouble was not known, it
is believed something happened
to the trucks steering gear which
caused Mr.. Daum to lose control
of the vehicle. He was unable to
stop the truck in time to keep il
from tipping over the edge of the
quarry.
