Saturday, January 5, 1924 BUY HOTEL SITE SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 5 — Consumation of the purchase of the Ambassador grounds site of the famous old tourist hostelry burned to the ground more than a year ago, was accomplished today when a syndicate headed by a former mayor, cmfw, cmfwy of former mayor Ole Hanson of Seattle, and Los Angeles business men, signed papers for the transfer of the property. Although no plans for the development of the ocean front grounds have been announced, it is expected that construction upon one of the greatest hotels in California will be started soon. The consideration involved is reported to be $300,000. Try a Plain Dealer Want Ad. Oakland SIX You should see this car before buying. Full line-of cars now on display. Glass "Enclosure" for open cars New Packard Single Embodies Many Mechanical Improvements, Refine Many new mechanical features and refinements are incorporated in a new model of the Packard single six, just announced by the Packard Motor Co. Mechanical simplicity and resulting economy of both operation and upkeep of former single six models have been retained, as have the beauty of both the body lines and finish and the comfort of riding. The wheel base remains the same—126 and 133 inches—and there is no change in the motor with its seven bearing crankshaft, its thermostatically-controlled cooling, its perfect balance, accessibility, ample power, and its 17 or more miles to the gallon of gasoline. The fuelizer, an exclusively Packard feature, which is declared to make starting easier and to add greatly to gasoline economy, also is found in the new model. The car has been made even easier to drive with a larger steering wheel and the same ball-bearing steering knuckles that are used in the new Packard straight eight. The factory is running to capacity and enough single sixes of the new model have been built in the last 45 days to permit shipments to all parts of the country. There is the same planetary gear construction on the brake pedal which steps up the action as the pedal is depressed and flexible steel cables are used to actuate the front wheel brakes. A constant ratio of braking pressure is maintained between the brakes on the front and on the rear wheels and also constant equalization between the opposite wheels, both front and rear. For the foot or service brakes internal expanding brake shoes are used on the front wheels and external contracting bands on the rear wheels. The hand brake is of the internal expanding type, acting on the rear wheels only and is entirely separate from the other system, thus giving six brakes to the car. Skidding is reduced to a minimum, and while mechanism completely leaves only care to be that of simply replacing bulb when for any reason comes necessary.

For the foot or service brakes internal expanding brake shoes are used on the front wheels and external contracting bands on the rear wheels. The hand brake is of the internal expanding type, acting on the rear wheels only and is entirely separate from the other system, thus giving six brakes to the car. Skidding is reduced to a minimum, and while the stop is made quickly, passengers are not disturbed by it. The transmission has been made heavier than that of the former single six model and the same improved type of gears used in the straight eight has been adopted. The gears are of such shape that there is a constant bearing, one tooth against the other, all the time the gears are in mesh, making for greater smoothness and more quiet operation. Greater life and economy of upkeep are certain also, because of the heavier gears and construction. Built into the transmission housing is the planetary gear for the brakes operated by the brake pedal and the switch for operating the warning stop-light. This stop-light construction is another feature, new in motor car design, adopted from the straight eight. It makes the light, herefore considered to be an accessory, an integral part of the car with clamps and pull wires eliminated, and all of the operating WHO'S W IN THE DAYS Sen, Peter C. G.

Heavier construction is used in the wheels, which are of the artillery type. The new wheels add much to the appearance of the car. One feature which is expected to cause considerable favorable comment is the manner in which the battery has been placed. It has been located in a metal container built into the right running board and front-fender for greater accessibility and convenience. Access to the battery is obtained simply by removing a plate on top of the box, which also provides a step when it is found necessary to examine the motor. This makes it unnecessary for driver or passenger to leave the car when the battery is inspected at a service station. Cable terminals for the battery also are brought up to fittings in the box in such manner that when the battery is removed there is no necessity of bending heavy wires about or having a second person hold them out of the way as the battery is lifted out. Among several important refinements in the regular equipment are a gasoline gauge on the instrument board, adjustable window regulators on the rear windows of sedans and sedan limousines, a new instrument board with walnut finish, interior tonneau lights for all open models and handsome toilet cases for most of the enclosed models.

W. A. Morrison, the superintendent of the park, reports that improvement has commenced of the first block. This is located on the other side of the park from Huntington Beach boulevard, and is he says, about the best piece of land in this part of California. Roads all about Central Memorial Park are being prepared so that in a few days investors will be able to drive in and around the park and view their property. One of the first things to be done will be the inauguration of a water system. This has involved the ordering of 200 carlonds of pipes and fittings, costing in the neighborhood of $200,000. This will be done before the roadways are permanently outlined and graded. Mr. Morrison is as busy as a cat with two tails just now building the organization to handle this gigantic project, for which only 160 acres are to be built up into this park, the work to be done and the needful material required to do it will run well into one and a quarter million dollars. This does not include the cost of the mausoleum and crematory. Several new branches have been opened by the sales department of Central Memorial Park, states G. R. Wilkinson, general superintendent of sales. J. E. Allen has opened a fine suite on the tenth floor of the Pacific-Southwest building, Long Beach, where conducts sales classes and turns out finished salesmen for this community project. A new office has been opened at Anaheim. A superintendent has been appointed for Los Angeles, where a sales staff of about 50 now exists. Mr. Wilkinson thinks it augurs well for the progress of Long Beach, when a branch of this magnitude is established in Los Angeles of a Long Beach concern.

Welcome McVayland to Orange-co, a delegation of Orange-co officers went to Cardiff this morning, where at noon they were guests of the San Diego lodge at lutcheon. They were scheduled to return with McVayland to Santa Ana and Anaheim late today. In the Orange-co party were H. A. Benjamin and J. W. Wallen, exalted ruler and secretary, respectively, of Anaheim; A. L. Tomblin and T. H. Elijah of Orange and P. G. Beisgel and W. W. Wasser, Santa Ana, similar officers. Orange-co officers will dine with McVayland at Anaheim at 6:20 oclock tonight, while the highest official of Elkham will address Orange-co lodges at the Anaheim club at 8 p.m. that there is not only a demand for Midway City lots, but an eagerness to buy them if one may judge by the sales made. This tract should easily be sold out in 60 days when we get going properly. "It is a surprise to me," continued Mr. Diffe, "that some of the wise men around this district don't try to take advantage of our wholesale offer. Buyers of Midway City lots under a plan we have just created, simply cannot lose. Indeed, they must absolutely make a very handsome profit. There is positively no question about the values around here. They are jumping and will continue to do so for some time.
