Car Engine Is
To Ladies
By RICHARD KLEINER
NEA Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK —(NEA)— If you’
know a woman who understands
what makes an automobile run,
you are acquainted with a rare
character indeed. Husbands and
other males will be delighted to
learn that a nationwide survey
shows most women haven't -the
foggiest idea how come cars move,
The extent of the average fe
male’s ignorance regarding things
| automotive is frightful. The sur
vey took up many of the items
under the hood and asked what
each was designed to do. |
l These are the items, and some |
of the answers: |
Engine as a whole, One Phila-:
delphia lady gave the questioner
a blank look and said, “Don’t ask
me about it—l barely know where
it is.” Another gal, this one from
Dallas, said she thought the car
moved by “centrifugal force.” To- i
THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
tal—47 per cent of the ladies had
little knowledge about it.
Transmission. One brainy fe
male said this was “where you
put the key in.” Another shrugged
her shoulders and said, “All I do
is drive the old crate.” Total—so
per cent knew nothing of its func
tion.
Distributor. An Atlanta woman
said this had something to do
with the windshield wiper. A
‘well-dnformed Philadelphia girl
said she didn’t know her car had
one. Total--72 per cent were in
blissful ignorance.
Valves. A Massachusetts woman
knew there were some valves on
the tires, and a miss from Wash=-
ington state knew they “let some
thing in somewhere.” From Pitts
burgh came a reply: “All 1 know
is my husband’s always grinding
them.” Total—6B per cent of the
ladies were hazy.
Crankshaft. This brought an
indignant reply from a woman,
who snorted, “I don’t have to
crank my car.” And a St. Louis
damsel described it as “an old
fashioned device found on the
Model T.” Total—64 per ceat of
the girls were not guilty of knowl
edge.
Carburetor. ILadies in Dallas
and Seattle referred to this as
something that “catcb!el dirt” and
cleans oil” respectivély. A girl
in Nebraska answered brightly,
“It has something to do with the
motor.” Total-—more than 50 per
cent couldn’t tell a straight story,
~ Battery. Said a lady from Cali
fornia: “It holds water inside and
‘ spark plugs on top.” And a house
wife in Hartford said, ,sagely,
“Well, a car has to have a battery
—you can’t plug it into a wall
socket.” Total —the gals were
pretty bright on this, since only
27 per cent couldn’t explain it.
Spark Plugs. This section of the
survey wounded the Champion
people, who conducted it because
45 per cent of the women knew
little about their product. One
| answered it “had something to do
with the horn, lights and radio,”
| and another said it “regulates the
Iflow of gas.”
' Radiator. The gals knew where
this was, but that’s about all. One
said, “It's that thing up front that
leaks.” Another thought it was
put there to boil water. A mid
western woman said it “holds the
| grille in position.” Total—-x‘r_xon:,
than 30 per cent were vague about
it.
Of course, there are exceptions.
In Hartford, Conn., the survey
turned up an ex-WAC mechanic
who was asked how a car ran.
“Gas is mixed with air in the car
buretor,” she said, “and the gas
air mixture goes into the ecylin- |
ders. When it fires it pushes the |
pistons down and they turn the
crankshaft.”
Show-off.
CAR BLOCKS TRAIN
ELGIN, llL.—(AP)—When Don- |
ald L. Sprague of nearby Aurora !
visits this city again, he'll watch !
how he parks his car.
He parked his car on the Chica
go and Northwestern tracks which
cut diagonally through the down
town area. Police searched the
town for Sprague when a train
was blocked, tying up automobile
traffic.
Sprague finally showed up at
the police station and reported his
car was mrissing. Police told him !
he could reclaim it by paying the
charges incurred in towing his car
away.
