1950 Model
Traciors On
Display Here
Hugh Rogers of the Mountain
Supply company of Waynesville an
nounced the showing this week of
the 1950 model Ford tractor in the
firm's show room behind Rogers
Electric company on Main street.
According to Mi Rogers' state
ment the 1950 tractors are much
heavier than previous models. This
added weight is of particular ad
vantage to mountain farmers, cul
tivating fields on sloping ground.
The extra weight means greater
traction, enabling them loj be used
to greater advantage on most soils.
Mr. Rogers also mentioned the
additional power of the 19r0 trac
tors as one of the outstanding im
provements over previous models.
The new engines ere more power
ful by 4 horsepower than Uie
1949 models, he said.
Farmers of this area are eneour--aged
to ask for -a' demonstration on
their farm.

Baxter's car skidded on ice and
rolled over several times on a lone

Some seven hours later, he was
found beside the demolished vehi
cle with no shoes on and his feet
frozen. He also had rib injuries.
The temperature while he lay
unconscious on the ground was 10
degrees above zoor. Had it been
much colder, as it was the previous
two nights, he probably would
have frozen to death.

The 1950 Plymouth car, with im
portant styling changes and improve
ments for safety and riding comfort,
will go on display in dealer show
rooms throughout the country Jan
uary 12.
There are new lines in the silhou
ette which give the new Plymouth a
longer, lower, more streamlined ap
pearance. The changes are readily
apparent whether viewed from front,
rear, or side.
Rear fenders, which are bolted on
for economical removal in case re
pairs are necessary, have been re
styled and lengthened, A larger rear
window on club coupes and four
door sedans, Slightly greater over-all
width, and alterations on the rear
deck provide a longer, heavier, road
hugging appearance for all models.
The grille has, been simplified and
made more massive. ; It consists of
two large horizontal : bars with a
curvea-aown top member and a
single vertical bar at the center.
Above the grille the Plymouth name
plate appears in larger block letters,
and a bigger, more colorful medal
lion has been placed over the name
plate.
Described as "Packed with value
and ready to prove It," the new i
Plymouth was characterized by D.
S. Eddins, president of Plymouth, as
"The greatest car value we have
ever offered the public."
"When we speak of value," Eddins
said, "we mean that we have com
bined beauty with sensible styling,
that we have achieved big-car per
formance with small-car economy,
and, that the mechanical excellence
of which we have always been
proud has maintained its high level,"
The front and rear tread have
been increased, a factor which in
creases stability, eases tire loading
stress on curves, and enhances the
car's general appearance. Thirty-two
per cent larger than on previous
models, the new rear window in
creases visibility and its lines blend
into the car's new streamlining
motif. The window is set in a newly
designed locking rubber seal.
There are larger bumpers on both
front and rear. In addition to pro
viding greater protection for the
grille, : rear deck and lenders, the
bumpers add materially to the gen
eral appearance of massiveness.
The theme of simplicity which has
been carried out in the medallion
and name plate on the front has
been continued in the ornamentation
of the rear deck. The block-letter
name plate, the license tlate lieht
ornament, the license plate recess,
and the T-shaped luggage compart
ment handle are styled to accent the
car's low, sleek lines. Combination
tail lights and stop lights are set
into each rear fender.
The redesigned instrument nanel
provides new backgrounds of trans
parent gunmetal on spun aluminum
for the gauge dials, speedometer,
radio dial, and clock. The gunmetal
finish is also Used on the radio grille
screen. There are larcer rotarv
switch knobs which are easier to
operate.
F eatures for performance, comfort
and safety which were previously in
troduced in the Plymouth line have
been retained. The car has charac
teristic interior roominess, ample
head and leg room, and wide, deep
chair-height seats. The six-cylinder,
97-horscpowcr engine has a 7 to 1
compression ratio. The combination
ignition and starter switch, auto
matic electric cfcoke, super-cushion
tires, safe-guard hydraulic brakes
and safety-rim wheels are among the
"high-priced car" features contained
in the new Plymouth.
