"They used method of trying
brick walls which is completely

courses, they cut trianular bricks.
And they put reinforced cleats on
the steel beams"
The building took its name from
the rim stone haning tower. But

find out, the only thing that ever
hung there is a bell"
The contractor figures he will

Car Service Guide
For Women Drivers

A handy car-maintenance time
table for women owners has been
compiled by Robert H. Kline, Dodge
director of service. 1t may also be
helpful to wives who do much of
the family driving.
If women follow it, Kline says,
they need have no guilt complexes
about not knowing the difference
between the alternator and the car
buretor.
You can tell a woman b e
should know basic car mechanics, "
Kline said, but actually why should
she? If she's a good driver and
cares for her car, she may never
have to put her head under its
hood
Kline's timetable goes this way:
At six months; every spring,
have your dealer drain the anti
freeze and check heater and muff-
ler.
Every 500 miles: Women W h o
drive on short trips at low speeds
to the store, to school or around
the neighborhood should have the
oil changed as frequently as every
500 miles, or not longer than two
months. After a dusty vacation
trip, another oil change.
At 1000 miles: Most new car
dealers include a 1000 mile free
service check of engine, brakes,
clutch, cooling system, steering
gear, transmission, rear axle,
wheels, tires and safety check of
all accessories.
Every 1000 miles: An oil change,
replacement of oil filter element,
and a maintenance service check
of fluid levels; fabrication of hood,
door and trunk latches; rotation of
tires and space; and a safety in
spectiOn.
At 5000 miles: Engine tune-up
and check of spark plugs, service
distributor, clean air cleaner filter,
adjust carburetor and check con-
dition of battery. Clean and tighten
terminals and connections.
At 10000 miles: Rotate tires, in
cluding spare.
At 10000 miles: Time for brake
be inspected and repacked, if nee
essary. Replace carburetor fuel fill
ter
At 10000 miles: Your dealer will
check the front suspension align
ment. Have engine tuned up and
rotate tires, including spare.
At $4,000 miles: Rotate tires, in
Guiding spare.
At $4,000 miles: Engine tune-up
and bake maintenance check. Re-
place carburetor, fuel filler, and air
cleaner filter.
AT $4,000 miles: Rotate tires, in
cluding spare.
At 10000 miles: Another front
suspension alignment check. In be-
tween times, Kline suggests, these
service tips for women:
1. Learn how to change a tire.
If there's no one at home to teach
you, visit driver-training course
or ask your service man. Have the
proper equipment in your C r
trunk.
2. Keep an eye on three instru-
ments on the dash The tempera-
ture gauge arrow should be approx
imately centered, although in sum-
mer city driving it may go higher.
The alternator or generator indica-
tor is centered when your battery
lis fully charged. The oil pressure
light should be off while you are
driving. If it goes on, you need
helpi
8. Keep tire pressure at the rec
commended level.
4. Keep your car clean. Parking
it under weeping maple tree can
be as hard on the finish as winter
salt.
5. Know the telephone number of

achievement and then went to
Chevrolet, shuns conversation
on the horsepower race.
When he was in town briefly
last week, the conversation
turned to two new optional en-
gines his competitors are offer
ing, both of over 400 horse
power.
Mr.. KnudSen, a most enter
tanning and amiable executive

saying something about a nine

Reminded that at least one
recent television commercial
showed two cowboys in a 405-
horsepower convertible roping
a steer out on the lone prairie,
he unused well, there isn't
much of a market for steer
roping right now"
Then, replying to another
question regarding Pontiac s
successes in stock car racing,
he said he pays no attention to
Daytona-"we're not in the rae
ing business.
Turning to his mail, Mr..
Knudsen mentioned the num-
Der of letters he receives from
car owners talking about the
height of the transmission tun-
nel-the hump in the floor.
"A lot of them complain.
Sometimes 1 can't figure out
the public thinking. The

sion tunnels so high you can

ned. "And they sell like they're
