PAGE EIGHT THE FRANKLIN PRESS AND THE HIGHLANDS MACONIAJN THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1S41 Safety Assured for Tiny Tourists v ----- Tvf-iti) .A--' I'iTO.-'N. .- Tiny tourists sometimes grow restless on long motor trips and their limitless energy end curiosity require double checking to insure that every safety precaution is being taken by their parents. With the entire rear com partment of the family Chevrolet as his persona play ground, this youngster assumes a favorite perch that ordinarily would be dangerous. However, a simple adjust ment, easily made by Chevrolet mechanics, converted the rear door handle to a safety-action handle, which "free wheels" and does not open the door. After the lock is ad justed to safety position, as indicated in the inset, the lock button is depressed and the inside handle then will not open the door, rendering it "child-proof." Release of the lock button enables the driver to open the door at usual.
