The New Ford Car
H. E. Nixon Gets First One
Delivered by Anaheim
All who have been privileged to take
the new Ford automobile,
have been invited for a year before
his commission are enthusiastic in its
work. The first person to get one
of the M.P. Thompson Company in
Annaheim was H. E. Nixon, an oil man.
He also sold furnished in gunmetal
bags delivered to him and his wife
by Mr. Thompson last Thursday.
M.P. Thompson of the 250,000 who,
arrived in their path in Henry Ford to
produce a car world while placed their
orders on the scene. The Nixon order
was with the local Ford dealer
nearly a year ago, when Ford announced
that the old model "T," which had great faithfully for nearly 26 years was to be abandoned, and the
new model of the Ford Motor Company were to be placed solidly behind the perfection and production of an entirely new car.
New Ford has succeeded in his
company in furnishing something new in
low price transportation can only be
obtained by the interest with which
the new car has been received by the
world at large.
Newspapers and other periodicals have given, and are still giving, column after column of reading matter—giving it through any particular love for Henry Ford's plant, or his dealers. It is because the public has demanded this information, and it is, therefore, news.
In Los Angeles, when the Ford announcement was made on December 2, newsboys gave the Ford news the preference and screamed: "All about the new Ford car," and circulation records of street sales for this day have been reported as greatly increased. Fifty thousand mobbed the Los Angeles show place for the new model on this day, and throughout the world similar.

The New 1928
Model India Tire
In Los Angeles, when the Ford announcement was made on December 2, newsboys gave the Ford news the preference and screamed: "All about the new Ford car," and circulation records of street sales for this day have been reported as greatly increased. Fifty thousand mobbed the Los Angeles show place for the new model on this day, and throughout the world similar scenes were taking place. In Anaheim nearly 1500, by actual count, called at the local Ford showrooms, where a car wasn't even on display, for information concerning it.
All previous ideas of introductory methods have been sent toopsy-turvy since this new car arrived. Never in the history of merchandising has there been anything quite like it.
Ford says the car will make 65 miles per-hour easily—it will.
The car leaps to 55 and from then on gains gradually 60-65-66-67-68-69 miles per hour, four more than is claimed for it. The car holding the road like one of the great coast to coast passenger locomotives, its course as true as a bullet sped from a high powered rifle. For those who have never experienced the "sensation" of driving around 70 miles per hour, it might be added that there are no sensations in traveling at that rate of speed in the new Ford. One only has a feeling of confidence as the plucky little buggy speeds forward.
Ford says this car will accelerate from 5 to 25 miles per hour in 3 seconds. He has tested this feature also, for it will do it with ease.
The car is new from stem to stern, and none of the hard riding objections of the old fillyver is left. Washboard stuff along the side of the road that would make the average car of even a few months ago jumpy, is taken smoothily.
The car, as shown by advance sales, is appealing to all classes. Thompson reports an order for a Hollywood man who now owns a Lincoln and a Rolls-Royce, and three Packard owners are also listed with him for early deliveries.
And a big argument in favor of the new car seems to be that all the old-time Ford jokes that formerly disparaged the sturdy little wagon which furnished outdoor enjoyment for so many millions seem to have entirely disappeared, while in their place we have the "second gear story," which everyone knows by now.
Ford is now producing 3000 cars per day and will produce 6000 by April 1; 2000 by May 1, and 12,000 per day, which is anticipated as the peak, by June 1.
Deliveries in Anaheim will be quickened in proportion to the increase in production at the factory, and Thompson believes it will only be a short time until he will have a complete series of models for public inspection. In the meantime, demonstrations are being given to a steady flow of people, averaging 50 to 100 daily.

The New 1928 Model India Tire
Tires are now subjected to very adverse operating conditions. Due to an economic price condition in the automotive industry, the tire equipment is generally too small for the weight of the car carried. On top of that, there is also the tendency for smaller-sized wheels, low center gravity cars, four-wheel brakes, and a big increase in the number of intersectional and boulevard stops.
Realizing this, India has made several marked improvements in their 1928 model tire. In good old amber cushion has been embodied in every size from the 30x3½ to the largest balloon. This has many advantages compared to a black friction used in most of the other tires today. It cannot be beaten for ply adhesion, resistance to road shock, resistance to bruise breaking, and does not deteriorate with age nearly as fast as black friction stocks.
In every tire which India manufactures, the tread and sidewall are made up mainly of the two highest priced hard. Firm rubber; namely, smoked ribbed sheets and pale latex rubber. You will find no cheapening fillers, reclaimed rubber or any composition of any description. Nothing has been left unturned in building a 100 per cent quality tire. The 1928 model India marked by the new red stripe with corrugations, will outrun and outweave any tire made, is the opinion of We Prothers, your local distributor for the India tire in Orange county.

Sunday Date Set for Opening Ball Game
Portland Leaguers vs. Orange County Team at Fair Grounds
The Portland Baseball Club has officially opened quarters at the Orange County Fair Grounds. They will play their first game at the grounds next Sunday, March 4, when they contest with the Orange County Ball Club.
Ernie Johnson, manager of the Portland club, is daily putting some thirty-five men through their paces at the fair grounds. The boys are showing some real stuff in the daily workouts.
The Orange county baseball committee announces that the purchase of the advance sale tickets is progressing very nicely, and that the fans will find them at a premium before the opening game. Purchasers of the books of ten tickets each may use these pasteboards at any one of the games or all of them at one game, as he so desires. These tickets are interchangeable and do not have to be delivered at the gate from the original book in which they were purchased. General admission at the gate will be 75c and $1. Those purchasing the advance sale tickets will save money by so doing.
Portland has agreed to play ten scheduled games at the fair grounds, and according to Manager Johnson, there is every probability that fourteen or fifteen games will be played here during the training season. With excellent weather conditions anticipated, the fans of Orange county are expecting a real treat of the national pastime.

USED FOR MANY PURPOSES
This is the question which arises naturally in many minds, in response to the news that the automotive industry is turning up in anticipation of a record-shattering production in 1928. Obviously, a certain proportion of the three or four million cars built in this country each year go to replace vehicles which have passed out of service as such. It is equally certain that not all of the replaced cars have been junked. But where, then, are they?
This is the question asked of A. B. Batterson, director of advertising for the Buick Motor Company. Mr. Batterson answered that the files of the Buick Bulletin contained hundreds of photographs showing these cars making good in lines outside ordinary highway transportation.
"In the first place, fully three-quarters of all the two million Buicks which has been built are still in service as motor cars," said Mr. Batterson. "Of those which are not, hundreds have been converted into power plants of various sorts. Some are running sawmills, some operate pumping outs, some are in marine use, and many more find useful employment in various phases of construction work.
"We recently issued through our news service a picture of a Buick sedan which the Northern Pacific lines had transformed into a 'locomotive' by substituting steel flanges for the rubber tires. Since then, we find that this is not entirely unique. C. Baldwin, superintendent of the Columbus division of the Central of Georgia railway, has sent us a photograph of himself and the converted Buick which he uses for inspection work. It enables him to keep close supervision over his trackage at a fraction of the cost of the steam equipment formerly used. Mr. Baldwin says."
George F. Howard, northern Orange county dealer, said: "These are only a few of the unusual jobs which Buick's reputation for power and stamina have suggested to users in various parts of the world. The list is being enlarged constantly, answering at least in part, the question that was asked. Thousands of cars keep on earning their way long
to be sold in accordance with the provisions thereof to satisfy said obligations, which notice of default and election to sell was duly recorded in Book 96, page 343 of Official Records in the office of the County Recorder of said Orange County, California, and as Document No. $555 in the office of the County Registrar of Orange County, California, on Certificate No. 4672, Vol. 19, Page 159 of the Register of Titles, Orange County, California, and;
WHEREAS, more than three months have elapsed since the recordation of said notice and there now remains due and unpaid to the Redlands Building-Loan Association, as aforesaid, the sum of $3400.41, in accordance with the provisions of said trust deed.
NOW THEREFORE, notice is hereby given that W. T. Bill and A. E. Ball, by virtue of the authority vested in them as trustees, will sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, lawful money of the United States, on the 23rd day of March, 1928, at the hour of 10.30 o'clock A.M. of said day, at the West entrance of the County Court House in the City of Santa Ana, County of Orange, State of California, all of the interest conveyed to them by said deed of trust in and to all of the following described real property situate in the County of Orange, State of California, described as follows:
Lot One (1) in Tract No. 787, as per map recorded in Book 24, Pages 8 of Miscellaneous Maps, Records of Orange County, California, or so much thereof as said trustees shall deem necessary to pay all principal, interest, charges, trustees' fees, counsel fees, costs and interest to date of sale, secured by said trust deed.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, W. T. Bill and A. E. Ball have set their hands this 1st day of March, 1928.
