D. Bottom, branch manager, and R. J. Burke, commercial ' manager, of the Atlanta Ford branch, conducted a meeting today .at the Georgian hotel, for Ford dealers andg dealer salesmen from a radius of 75 miles around Athens, for presentation and discussion of the features and sales plan of the new Ford V-8 trucks and commer cial cars for 1934, presented last week by the Ford Motor company. Three of the new models were displayed outside the hotel. The new school hus, built to accem modate 21 passengers, has a wheel base of 157 inches, and has been designed for maximum comfort and safety, as well ds economy of operation and smartness of ap pearance. This bus, and the other two models® shown—panel deljvery truck, with 112-inch wheelbase, and dump truck, with 180-inch. wheel base——caused much comment. “These three models were chosen to illustrate the variety of types in Ford V-8 trucks commercial cars for 1934, .said Mr. Burke, “They typify the combination of handsome appearance, sturdy cen gtruction, smooth and economic operation that characterize the Ford V-8 commercial line for 1934.” All commercial units are power ed with the 80 horsepower V-8 truck engine. The complete Iline includes & wide ‘range of body tvpes, from the pickup and station Roosevelt Returning | To Washington After 2 Weeks Vacation ENROUTE WITH PRESIDENT | ROOSEVELT TO WASHINGTON., — (#) — President Roosevelt told newspapermen aboard his special train enroute to Washington Thurgday that he hm} a ‘“perfect ly marvelous time just lazying | around,” on his two weeks vacation cruige which ended this ‘morning at Miami. Returning *to the capital he showed no particular concern over the congressional situation, rather indicated a helief ‘that everythlngi was in order for an early conclus jon of the administration program. * He declined comment on pend ing Ilegislation. ; | A deep tan covered the presi dent's face as he walked down the gang plank from the 'Nourmahal in Miami to ‘the applause of a closely watched crowd. } Sitting back In the observation | section of 'his private car,‘Mr.l Roosevelt took off his coat as he talked with newspapermen in the firgt “on the ' ‘record” interview since he left the White House. | Candidates For Boys | American Legion Team | To Meet Tonight at 8 All boys who wish to join the| American Legion sandlot basebau’ team should report to the ecity Y. M. €. A. bublding tonight at 8| o'cloek, 'to sign papers which must | wagon on the commercial chassic through the varjous panel deliver ies and stake bodies to the heavy duty express and dump trucks, thus meeting the widest varfety 'of hauling requirements, including severe demands of heavy duty and high speed operations.” “Appearance, safety, economy and efficiency of operation, have all been carefully considered §n the designing and building of the 1934 Ford V-8 trucks and commercial cars,” Mr. Bottom stated. “Num erous improvements have been made, among them the new full floating rear axel, improvements in the special type V-8 truck engine and a newly designed front end. The object of these meetings througheuy the Atlanta branch ter ritory is to familiarize Ford deal ers and dealer salesmen with the many outstanding features of these commercial units, and also with the program for truck sales and advertising.” These features and plans were interestingly presented by the speakers, Mr. Bottomm and Mr, Burke, and also by a moving pic ture on the new Ford V-8 truck. Another movie, showing the Elgin stock car road race which was won by ten Ford V-Bs, offered another demonstration of Ford V-8 stam ina and speed. Commenting on the enthusiasm of Ford dealers over the new com mercial units, Mr. Burke said, “I he signed before a boy is allowed to play. The team this year will be un der the direction of W. A. Hodg son, who. is planning a four-team league, with the best players on the teams being picked in time to form a good team for the annual tournament. A boy eligible to play must be under 17 years of age, and must furnish proof that he is. The local American Legion post did not have a team last year, but two yvears ago sent one to the tourna ment in Gainesville. Sons of Confederate Veterans Society Want To Form Group Here An appeal for the re-ingtatement of former chapters of the Sons of Confederate Veterans sooiety in Georgia has been, idsued by Mec- Whorter Milner, commander of the Cleorgia division. This organization is anxious to gecure the.support and enthusiasm of those interested in the Confed erate Veterans, the cause for which they stand and to keep alive the sertiment of the Old South, as it was before the war between the states. All Vetcrans' sons, grand sons, and great grandsons over 12 vears old are eligible to join, and those interested are wurged to get in touch with Mr. Milner in con neetion with the establishment of a chapter of the group here. A new record ocean dépth has heen ‘diséovered off the coast of Puerto Rico—44,ooo feet. THE BANNER-{IERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA predict that sales of commercial carg and trucks will be larger this year than in any year since 1929. In spite of the 48 per cent gain in sales of commercial vehicles in 1933, 70 per cent of the ‘trucks still in use are more than 5 years old. Needless to say, many of them— even large fleets—are being run beyond the point where they can be ' operated -economically. That means a great replacement mar ket in which the 1934 Ford V-8 de livery cars and trucks will, T be lieve, get a high proportion of the business.” “The many ‘Economy Runs’ con ducted throughout the country last yedar have proven the ability of the Forq V-8 truck to stand up under the most constant and gruel -Iling strain, and have also shown an average, with full pay load, of 12 1-2 miles per gallon of gasoline. Commercial operators are more and more leaning toward this smooth and powerful hauling unit for taking care of their transpor tation on an economical and ef ficieny basis,” . As further support of his belief, Mr. Burke mentioned the fact that the 1934 Ford commercial line, with prices reduced as much as 20 per cent, comprises the lowest cost equipment now obtainable. Many of the new Forg V-8 com mercial units for 1934 are on dis play at the showroom of. C. A. Trusgsell Motor Co., local TFord lealer, J. 0.
