the first six months of 1852 was
down 4.S per cent under that in
the Similar 1851 period.

DETROIT, Jan. 6-Through-
out 1861 the auto industry clung
to. the theory that things had
to get better-and they did.
;, In February, sales were the
lowest for the month since the
Korean War. In October and
early November sales were at
record highs for the period.
Layoffs and short-work weeks
were the rule in the first part
of the year. Added manpower
and overtime kept assembly
lines humming in the closing
months.
The manufacturers were talk
ing in glowing terms of 1862
prospects with optimistic fore
casts calling for sales of 7.25
million cars, or about the equal
of record 1865.
With the signing of three
year union contracts, labor
peace seemed assured. One of
the rare dark spots on the
horizon was the possibility of
a steel strike after June 80.

Machine Tool
Orders Improve,
Spur Optimism
BY the Associated Press

Orders for machine tools
may rise 10 per cent or more
in 1862, some experts believe.
But even this substantial gain
would leave American tool
builders operating at about 60
per cent of capacity.
If there is genuine optimism
in the industry over this years
prospects. it rests on the hope
that Congress will pass an in
vestment-incentive tax bill.
The National Machine Tool
Builders Association is one of
the few business organizations
in the country which has in
dorsed the 8 per cent tax credit
recommended by the Kennedy
administration as an encour-
agement to industry to expand
and modernize plant equipment.
Shipments. Of metal cutting
tools last year were almost S
per cent behind the 1860 rate.
New orders came in at a vol
ume 10 per cent greater, with
most Of the gain concentrated
in the last few months.
+ Orders in 1862 are believed
likely to approximate $610
million, by comparison with
slightly more than $3.50 million
last year.
Orders from abroad have ac-
counted for roughly one-third
Of all the new business received
by the tool builders.

dates in August and December

the 1861 model year 5,408,625
cars were built. 49,.
Last year was the year of
the bucket seat. Every manu-
facturer introduced one or more
bucket seat models. mostly in

Compacts accounted for about

the 1859 models.
Chevrolet Leads
Chevrolet was the biggest
selling standard car by a wide
margin over Ford while the
Ford Falcon was the No. l SELL
ing compact. For the third
straight year average prices of
new cars remained unchanged.
The trend in the new cars
was to longer intervals between
maintenance, especially chassis
fabrication.
Profits were down, with
Chrysler reporting losses in the
first and third quarters and
Studebaker-Packard in the first
three quarters. American Mo-
tors became the first auto man
ufacturer to include a profit

Maryland's football team will

season and five others not too
far away.
The Terps will open and close
at home against North Carolina
State and Virginia, respectively,
and also meet North Carolina,
the Air Force and Penn State
at College PARK.
If travel is supposed to be
broadening, the Terps will have
to get it another way. On the
road, the Terps won't leave the
Atlantic Coast Conference area.
Away games are listed at
Clemson, South Carolina, Wake
Forest. Navy and at Richmond's
Tobacco Festival against Duke.
AS during the past season.
the Terps will play all seven
ACC foes. Navy and the Air
Force replace Miami and
Southern Methodist. The series
continues with Penn State.
In quality, the schedule is
similar to the 1862 card in
which Maryland posted a ga
slate. But unlike the past sea-
son, the Terps' home dates are
well spaced and there is an in
crease from four to five.
The 1862 Terps were on the
road at one point six of seven
weeks. A two-game road swing
is the longest for the '63 club,
which again is expected to fea-
