SOUTH CAROLINA Thursday, August 9, 1934 It might have been BUILT especially for M' THE SOUTH v - “ vw?- 5 i y The Ford V-8 might have been built especially for the South. Its twin pump cooling system allows you to drive all day long, even in the hottest weather, without the motor heating up. The wind shield opens—a necessity in summer weather. Due to free action for all four wheels, it’s a comfortable car over all kinds of roads. Ford is the only car under $2500 which offers you the V-8 engine, the same type of engine that holds every record on land, water and in the air. The South knows that the Ford has always been an economical car. The Ford V-8 is the most economical Ford ever built. Talk to a Ford Owner and you may think he is bragging. Drive the Ford V-8 and you will share his enthusiasm. McGRATH MOTOR COMPANY McCORMICK, S. C. The more look at FEATURES high-priced cars you the more FORD V-8 you see.

Drtroit I Easy terms thru Universal Credit Company State Enrollment Returns Show Big Increase Over 1930 M 36 COUNTIES 55,031 MORE PERSONS ELIGIBLE TO VOTE FOR CHIEF MAGISTRATE. Columbia, Aug. 6.—^Available en rollment returns indicated last night that approximately 25 per cent more persons will be eligible to vote for a governor this year than in 1930. Official reports filed with Lane L. Bonner, secretary of the state Dem ocratic executive committee, show ed an increase of t>5,031 in the party enrollment in 36 of the 46 counties as compared with the enrollment four years ago. There were 268,795 names on the books in 36 counties where 1930 enrollment in the same counties numbered 213,764. The increase was slightly over 25 per cent. Purging of the club rolls was ex pected to reduce the total, how ever, and the actual vote hereto fore has usually been considerably less than the enrollment. Only six of the 36 counties re ported an enrollment exceeding the ever sized registration rolled up in 1932 and but one of these was in the upper state. There was no gov ernor’s race in 1932. Charleston and Barnwell in the coast country, Sumter, Richland and Fairfield in the central state and Cherokee in the Piedmont found their prospective voters flocking to sign the books in great er numbers than in 1932 or 1930. Thirty-four of the counties sur passed their 1930 enrollments, however. The two exceptions were Pickens, which fell 883 under its mark of four years agp* and Mc Cormick, which was four*short, A number of lower state counties barely exceeded t^ieir enrollment of ti year.

Ford Demonstrations Daily At World’s Fair Seven and one-half minutes down, thirteen up—a total of twen ty and one-half minutes to disas semble and then to assemble again a 1934 Ford V-8 engine! That’s the average time each of the two teams of automobile me chanics spend in such a demon stration about twenty-four times daily on a stage of the Ford Expo sition Building at A Century of Progress, Chicago, before throngs of World’s Fair visitors. There’s keen rivalry between these teams —each one comprising two men— and sometimes they’re even faster than that, encouraged by the ap plause of spectators who watch their time on a clock on the stage. But the average time is seven and one-half minutes to dismantle and thirteen minutes to assemble. Two of the four men never worked on motors before they began to prac tice just a few weeks ago, but repe tition has given them facility, cut ting down their beginning time from fifteen minutes in disassem bly and twenty minutes in assem bly. Of course, the demonstration does not attempt to picture the process as it takes place in a deal er’s shop, but it does emphasize the simplicity of construction of the Ford V-8 engine. It’s the simplicity of design, the easy accessibility of every part of I the engine that makes for speed in breakdown and buildup, a speed which reduces all repair costs for the automobile ov/ner. In the World’s Fair dismantling-assemb ling demonstration, only the standard kit of tools used in all Ford service stations is employed. Here is the disassembly process, step by step. Two men, working together, take off the valve cham ber cover assembly at the top of the engine, which serves the dual purpose of manifold and valve chamber cover and to which arc attached the fuel pump, carburet or, and generator. Then they re move the cylinder heads. Turning the mptor upside down, the team takes off the oil pan and pump. Then they stand the en gine on end, flick out the valve as semblies, and remove the connect ing-rod caps, followed by the pis ton and connecting-rod assemblies. The distributor and cylinder front cover are lifted off as a unit. Then with the motor tilted to 45 de grees, the push rods and crankshaft bearing caps are removed. Again turning the engine upside down, the crankshaft is lifted out and the camshaft removed. .This completes the dismantling. To re assemble the motor, the steps are taken in reverse order. Many are the items involved in this saving of time but certainly one of the most important is the simple assembly of the valves. Quickly assembled before insertion into the cylinder block, they arc instantly pushed into place as com plete units. And when the valve assembly retainer is removed, £ touch quickly releases the compo- 1 nent parts. Thousands daily marvel at thb demonstration of dexterity and speed, but it is only one of many compelling attractions of the huge Ford Exposition, the largest single exhibit at the World’s Fair.
