Fifth Avenue, New York's fash-!

ways well regarded. There was a
time when it was used cnieiiy oy
the thousands of squatters who liv
ed in huts on what is now Centrol
Park. They collected bits of food
fiom barrel's in the residential ' sec
tions of the lower city and carted it
back up Fifth Avenue in wagons
drawn by dogs. This was to feed
hundreds of animals kept by the
squatters in their settlement.

water, but, with the aid of its spiny
fins and gill covers, can actually
climb a palm tree.

In the design end development of the new 19)4 Chevrolet,
particular attention hai been given to driver and paMcnger comfort,
all annoying sensation of disagreeable sound and feeling having
been eliminated. The upper photo shows the new Chevrolet coach
with its long, sleek tines. Wind rush has been eliminated by the
Fisher No Draft Ventilators and the new streamlined bodies.
Chevrolet's "Knee-Action" wheels enjoy the advantage of being
completely enclosed in a weatherttght housing; the coil springs and
shock absorbers ride in a bath of oil. William . Holler. Chevrolet's
general sales manager, is shown at the left holding a chart winch
shows the internal construction of the system.
The radiator of the new car has added beauty through Its graceful
and sharply pointed design. Smartness has been the theme in
every line of this year's Chevrolet.
The driver and passengers in the new 1934 Chevrolet
get a ride like the glide of an airplane. One of the main
factors in improving the riding qualities of the new car
to such a great extent is the "Knee-Action" or inde
pendently sprung front wheels, to use the technical
term.
So much has been written about independent spring
ing that the public has doubtless concluded that it is
something too technical to understand. As a matter of
fact, there is nothing complicated about either the
principle involved or the construction of the system.
Chevrolet's "Knee -Action" enjoys the advantage of
being enclosed in a welded weathertight housing in
which the entire spring mechanism and shock absorb
ers ride up and down in a bath of oil.
An automobile gives a perfect ride when both the
front and rear springs have the same "frequency," or
tension. Actually this has been impossible to carry out
in the past because the front springs had to be over
twice as "stiff" as the rear springs in order to hold the
front axle, wheels and brakes in place. In independent
springing, the wheels and spring mechanism are rigidly
attached directly to the frame and there is no front axle.
By relieving the front springs of the task of carrying
wheels and axle, therefore, it became possible to make
the front springs as "soft" as the rear springs. When
the new Chevrolet strikes an irregularity in the road,
both front and rear move up and down with the same
frequency there is no inclination on the part of the
rear end of the car to leap into the air and throw the
passengers forward and upward.
Chevrolet's "Knee-Action" has additional advantages
all contributing to a comfort in riding never before
thought possible in a motor car. There is a decided
improvement in handling, steering, safety at high
speeds and tire economy.
In design, the front spring is a neat, compact and
efficient unit, as Mr. Holler points out in the above
picture. The entire spring mechanism is attached
rigidly to the frame. From this enclosed unit the wheels
spring vertically at the ends of strong, steel horizontal
arms. -i
