4All-Purpose Cars
For Every Family
folks don't go to the opera in
sweater-and-slacks outfits, nor do
they barge into the Elks' ball in polo
shirts; yet that's what auto design
ers seem to expect American motor
ists to do, in effect, by turning out
nothing but super-sporty, rakish-lin
ed "jobs". So says Dean A. Fales of
Massachusetts Institute of Technolo
gy, in suggesting to manufacturers
that they should provide more suit
ably "all-purpose" models for one
car families. The safety factor is
even more important than those of
style and good taste. Fales said, em
phasizing the need for greater road
clearance, better ventilation, better
vision. He attributed much of the
eye fatigue in driving and riding to
the distortion waves found in im- j
perfect safety glass, a conclusion sec
onded by Dr. Andrew H. Ryan, Chi
cago Psychologist, who found thati
use of polished plate glass in car
windows solves this problem. Dean
Fales made it clear he's no foe of
automotive informality, as such, but
contended cars have sacrificed some
good old virtues to streamlining and
spottiness.
