Interior trim is 'en tirely new. achieving a rich, restful beauty of particular appeal to women. It is also said for the cars that engneering advancements have stresa- ^ both ..performance and safety. The 1948 Chrysler Royal six-paaa- enger. four-door sedan, one of six UH^els embracing a total of 28 body styles offered by Chrysler, is being displayed in. the showrooma. The Chrysler Royal is powered by a six-cylinder engine of improved'de sign. Said Chas. H. Stogner, local agent: -{“Improvements that contribute to finer appearance, better performance, increased safety, added comfort and reduced operation and maintenance XQ8ta->are found in the 1948 Chrysler cars. The line comprises six models, the Royal. Windsor, and Town and Country powerw by six-cylinder en- gines, ad the New Yorker, Saratoga and Crovm Imperial, powered by eights. There are 28 body styles and an Cptlon of IS standard colors. I ’’So many improvements have been made and so many features added that the 1948 cars can properly be de scribed as new. In fact, more changes have been made since the 1942 Ines, the last manufactured before the out break of the war. than generally la tbe case from one model year to an other. Anyone got a fox they don’t want? For a fact, the Camdeii Hunt could not stage, a ^ac event last week be cause they huked the fev nacsesnry to make the drag a success. Visiting news writers who heard the fox story ftom the loud speaker smiled avidly and scratched tartskly on their note pads.

As mentioned in the news story of the Sunday game, the polo elnb, the city Or-whoever la in authority should take steps to insure better traffic control, especially after the games. The tieup seems to be at the exit of the field leading into the lane open-^ Ing on to Broad street Four and five lines of cars try to crash through a lane gate just wide enough for one ear. As a result it Is a long ted ious job for some of the lines having timid drivers. Camera experts, one from the U. S.

TRAFFIC COP PLACeO— We test every watch on the A 'sdendfic instrument that detects any irregu larities ih any watch, a certiheate of accuracy to assure your satbfaction. Come in and we will test your present watch FRJEE! The Hoffer Co, Jewelers and Optometriata i (Continued from first page) the 'chief anticipates that there will be a healthy roundup of these fire- wagon chaaers. Of late there baa been an increas ing tendency on the part of motorists to park double on Broad street while waiting for some member of their party to attend to shopping duties. This, particularly on Saturdays, has tended to cause traffic snarls of no mean dimension! and is to be stop ped. The police chief *made it plain that the day of “wannsg notlc^* is past and that offenders against any of tbe traffic or parking regulations are to be summarily dealt with. Chief Fire Marshal Denton stated that he has asked the police to bear down on the motorists who drive over hose .lines at fires. “Hose is difficult to obtain now and we try to conserve what we hare on hand", he said. "3^’hen a car drives over a hose line which is distended with the strong pressure from the pumper, tbe fabric is broken or weak ened and first thing we know, we have a break in the line and have to substitute a new section. This all delays*us in fighting a fire.” At a recent fire near the Jackson Tbe Savannah game next Sunday should be a humdinger in point of excitement and thrllla and probably the blggeat crowd of the seaeon will be on deck to watch tbe action on the fine turf of Kirkwood field. Fram where I sit I’m-picking the Camden team to win by at least three ecorea. Juat a hunch, that’s all. Cood old rip-roaring Joe Batee the riding son-of-a-gun from Wateree got a big hand when he showed up on the field In the Camden colors.
