New Ford Draws People By Score Hundreds Inspect New Eight-Cylinder Model On Display At Keirsey's Hundreds of Anaheim residents rushed to Harold Keirsey's Ford garage early Thursday morning to get their first glimpse of Henry Ford's latest automotive sensation—the new eight-cylinder motor car which sells in about the same price class as his previous model A. Told that the V-type engine develops 65 horsepower and is capable of driving the car at 75 miles an hour, the men and women personally began looking over various features. 14 Body Types Some of the mechanical features are rubber mounting for engine; downdraft carburetor; automatic spark control; fuel-pump; rear fuel tank; soft, flexible springs; large mechanical four-wheel brakes; small, strong, electrically welded steel-spoke wheels and large tires. The frame is cushioned from the running gear by rubber insulators in the spring shackles and shock absorber links. The 14 body types may be obtained also with an improved 50 horsepower, 4-cylinder engine at lower cost. The bodies are fresh and modern—from the gracefully rounded V-raditor to rear bumper. Body interiors are roomy and richly finished. Seats are of new style, designed for utmost comfort. Driver's seats in all closed cars are adjustable. A large ventilator is provided in the cowl. Body Low The instrument panel is oval, with a rustless steel moulding. Inside sun visors fold out of the way when not in use. Many outstanding features are found in the chassis. These include a strong, rugged frame; newly designed, soft, flexible transverse cantilever springs; rubber-cushioned spring shackles and self-adjusting hydraulic double-acting 233 Take Part In Big Superior Radio Contest Out of 233 guesses as to the number of radio tubes in a barrel at the Superior Radio Service, on West Center street, F.

Demonstrate Paints At Spencer’s Store Of unusual interest during this time of the year when housewives generally are concerned with spring housecleaning, Miss Miller, factory demonstrator from the Pittsburg Plate Glass company, will give a two-day demonstration Friday and Saturday, April 1 and 2, at the B. F. Spencer Store at 166 West Center street. In demonstrating the use of Water-pear, Miss Miller will color lamp shades, card tables, vases and other useful household articles. These articles, including mirrors, will be given away by the store with certain purchases, Mr. Spencer stated. "Last year more than 300 women were interested in the demonstration and many have returned to the store since inquiring when we were going to have another." Mr. Spencer said. "Everything Miss Miller does in the demonstration can be done by the most inexperienced at home. That's why her lemonstrations always attract considerable attention."

Body Low The instrument panel is oval, with a rustless steel moulding. Inside sun visors fold out of the way when not in use. Many outstanding features are found in the chassis. These include a strong, rugged frame; newly designed, soft, flexible transverse cantilever springs; rubber-cushioned spring shackles and self-adjusting hydraulic double-acting shock absorbers and large brakes. The rear spring is mounted on perches back of the axle housing and is bowed out around the differential housing. The shape of the frame and design of the springs allow the body to be mounted close to the road, thus lowering the car's center of gravity and improving roadability and riding comfort. The large mechanical four-wheel brakes have 186 square inches of braking surface. Brake drums are of cast alloy iron which tests show does not score easily. Plans for Aqueduct Told by Weymouth State Supreme Court's Decision Awaired: Work on San Jacinto 13-Mile Tunnel First If the California supreme court's decision, expected within a few weeks on the $220,000,000 Colorado river aqueduct bond issued overwhelmingly voted several months ago supports the validity of the gigantic expenditure, work will begin immediately on a 13-mile bore in the San Jacinto mountains, a job requiring more time than any other particular bit of work on the 200-mile waterway. Details for procedure were submitted this week by Head Engineer Frank E. Weymouth of the Metropolitan Water District. Before many months are passed, 10,000 men will be put to work and will remain at their jobs for the greater part of six years.

Cromwell to represent the Trojans in a dual meet against the University of California at Berkeley Saturday, April 2. The names of five Trojan stars were not on the tentative list either because of injuries or because Coach Cromwell does not believe they are in shape for a hard meet. Frank Wykoff will run both the 100 and 220 sprints in which he is doped to get plenty of competition from Bob Kiesel, sensational California sophomore. Kiesel is undefeated as yet in varsity competition and track followers in the San Francisco Bay district believe he has an excellent chance of beating Southern California's national champion. The meet will see Bill Graber, Southern California's champion pole vaulter, returning to his event after a two weeks' lay-off caused by a sprained ankle. However, Dick Barber, broad jumping ace, is still out of track because of injuries, while three hurdlers, Jeddy Welsh, Bill Stokes and Jimmy Payne, have not been entered because of various ailments. Jim Stewart is going easy in his training program and will not compete in the high jump.

The Golden Text is from Psalm exxl: "For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven... Through thy precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way." One of the Bible citations in the Lesson-Sermon includes words of Eliphaz from The Book of Job: "I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause; which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number; ... to set up on high those that be low; that those which mourn may be exalted to safety. He disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise... He shall deliver thee in six troubles; yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee." A selection from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, states: "As God Himself is good and Is Spirit, goodness and spirituality must be immortal... If goodness and spirituality are real, evil and materiality are unreal and cannot be the outcome of an infinite God, good." Anaheim Student Wins Scholastic Mention Joanne H. Houck '34 of Anaheim received no grade less than "B" during the first semester of 1931-32 it was announced by Theron Clark, registrar of the University of Southern California.
