Thousands OF Washington area resi-

tional Guard Armory this coming We'd
nesdav through Sunday to attend the
annual Auto ShoaD. The sleek, p0aOeT-

0NE corner of the Smithsonian
" Institution is like a dream
garage for auto lovers. Here sit the
skinny-tired, plush-seated monsters
that once went a terrifying seven
miles an hour.
They had their day-before the
roads of time turned gravel to
asphalt and phaetonS to convert
ibles; before seven miles grew up
to 10 and "oogah- h-oogah" was lost
in the insistent blarings Of 10th
century horns.
Now they sit together like mem
ory-filled older men-proud, pol
ished, spry, dignified.

time worker John Stine.
I'VE make no attempt to put
them into operating condition, but
try to refurbish them exactly as
they were," says Curator White.
"One of the major problems in re-
furnishing Is whether to use au-
thentic materials or replace with
more modern materials. Sometimes,
authentic materials don't last long.
For example, Mr.. White found
that patent leather does not hold

spokes and trim often need replac-
ing, whereas modern chrome re-
quires little upkeep. Also, wood
tends to crack In the rarified at
mosphere Of a museum-hot and
moist In summer, hot and dry in
winter.
And not the least Of the problems
is tourists.
Some of them treat this place
as If 1t were Disneyland. They want
to climb on the cars and have their
pictures taken. They think, I'm
not hurting it. but they don't real
ize what would happen II all the
thousands Of tourists did the same
thing"
Repainting the scratches, tight
ening loosened bolts and many Of
the other repairs are handled in the
museum shop. Larger work, such
as having wheels or major parts
made, Is done outside.
Mr.. Burkebile refurbished the
Duryea, which was thought for q
long time to be the first gasoline
car.
Now that theory Is generally dis
credited, but 1t still is a pioneer
one Of the first and the only one OF
its kind. When parts on an expert
mental model are missing, 1t makes
it somewhat difficult to reconstruct
because there are no manuals to
refer to. Luckily, one Of the Duryea
brothers who built the car was stin
alive and he helped u.s."

Ask a woman whether she
needs more storage and shelf
space and you can be almost
certain she'll say yes.
Shallow compartments for
wearing apparel and access
series are needed in bedrooms
usually, in addition to other
needs. and more drawer space
is required than available in
kitchens.
Kitchen storage space often
is wasted because original
planning did not utilize prop
erly the space that is avail
able.
New instant storage
drawers may be installed by
the home handyman in a
jiffy and are the answer to
many situations.
Modular drawers and slide
panels nodded of dura BILE
Styrene plastic are available
at building supply yards. The
home handyman may install
them by spreading cement on
a panel of plywood or hard
wood and then pressing a
plastic panel to the backing.
Nodded drawers, wood and
glass shelves may slide in on
the panel slides. They are
adaptable to many types of
installation, including pole
systems and storage walls.
The drawers of beige plas-
are available in a stand
ard depth of 17ls inches and
in heights of three and six
inches, and in five widths
ranging from about 16 to As
inches. Birch or walnu t
fronts are optional, and one
might paint the drawer front
to match room decor.
Kitchen requirements for
pots could be the six-inch
height.
Drawers may be inter-
spersed with shelves in a
linen closet for more effici-
ency, and since drawers move
easily on the performed slides
even in the presence of mois-
ture, they may be used in
bathrooms and in basement
workshops.

Bogarde, a bright young
lawyer headed for a Queens
Counselship, is the central fig
ure in the screenplay directed
by Basil Dearden.
He is a handsome, compass
sionate, happily married pro-
feSSional whose sympathy for
the socially disinherited has
made him vulnerable to the
blackmailers. With their tele-
photo lens cameras. these lat
ter have photographed him in
a mildly compromising rela-
tionship with a lonely young
ster. When the latter commits
suicide. as a sacrificial gesture
to save his warm natured law
yer friend, Bogarde decides to
act.
Working alone. apart from
the police and in defiance of its
effect upon his career at a cru
cial point, he sets out to trace
down the extortion ring. Two
immediate results of this are
to put his marriage in jeopar-
dy and subject him to the ply
sical peril Of dealing with
criminals whose callousness is
as marked as is the groveling
Of their victims. The latter,

Death Reheurino
For Jones Denied

The United States Court of
Appeals has refused to hold a
rehearing in the Willie Jones
murder case. Jones, SO, was
convicted of Staying a man in
1858. and faces a mandatory
death sentence.
His lawyers had asked the
appellate court to reopen the
case, already affirmed in a Sd
decision, to consider whether
prospective jurors opposed to
the death penalty had been
improperly excluded.
The attorneys challenged the
traditional practice of excusing
such persons for cause. Jones
lawyers argued the prosecution
should have been required to
use its peremptory challenges.
Since the number of peremp-
tory challenges, for which no
reason Is given, is limited, such
a procedure would have helped
the defense. The appeals court
did not comment in refusing the
rehearing yesterday.
