TELEPHONE 803 Any Hour of DAY or NIGHT for the weather forecast for Newberry and South Carolina — Presented as a public service by WKDK and Security Corp., 1219 Boyce St., Newberry. WKDK 1240 Kc. DETROIT—Family passen ger cars powered by the gas turbine engine moved a step closer to reality as Chrysler Corporation weighed a decision to build a limited number of gas turbine powered passenger cars for use by selected typical motorists. Announcement of Chrysler’s advance in the revolutionary gas turbine field was made jointly by Robert Anderson, vice-president and director — Product Planning and George J. Huebner, Jr., executive engineer — Research, for the automobile company. They spoke at the start of a 3,000-mile, five-day test evalu ation run from New York to Los Angeles by a modified 1962 Dodge powered by a gas turbine. In Los Angeles, the Turbo Dart was joined by a 1962 Plymouth Turbo Fury, also equipped with a turbine engine. Together, the cars be gan a tour from Los Angeles to Cleveland, Ohio, for public display in dealer showrooms. “The coast-to-coast Dodge trip is one phase of a program of evaluation we are taking at Chrysler Corporation to guide us in our decision — to build a limited number of tur bine powered automobiles and to place them in the hands of typical motorists who will use them under a variety of nor mal driving conditions,” Mr. Anderson said. “On the basis of the public interest shown in our turbine engine, and on the basis of our own knowledge of the engine’s many advantages and benefits, we believe a market for a turbine-powered automobile may be possible.” Mr. Huebner, who directs Chrysler Corporation’s turbine development program, listed the following passenger car gas turbine engine benefits. The gas turbine has only about a fifth as many parts as the reciprocating engine, it runs smooth and practically vibrationless, it does not re quire a distributor or breaker points, needs only one spark plug, and no oil changes. In addition, the Chrysler gas tur bine has a clean, cool exhaust, with no carbon monoxide and no unburned carbon. If built in a volume compar able with a piston engine, tur bine costs would be compar able with those mston en gines, Mr. Huebner said. Booklet information on the Chrysler-developed gas turbine is available to the general public at all local Chrysler, Plymouth and Dodge dealer ships. Printed matter includes turbine engine illustrations, diagrams of Chrysler, developed regenerative turbine engine principle, engineering data and statements oi the company's program for the development of r the turbine engine in future passenger car production.

DCWEL \ The University of Wyoming • v A . . *•»'-••• a* A The University of Wyoming was founded in Laramie in 1886 and the history of the University is a chapter in the story of the last frontier, as Wyoming was one of the last areas in the West to be settled. The University came into being eighteen .years after the territory of Wyoming was established, fear years before Wyoming was admitted to statehood. The University began function ing September 6, 1887, with one building, (Old Main) constructed at a cost of $49,700, five profes sors, two tutors and 42 students. When the University opened, the population of the territory was still under 50,000, Cheyenne be ing the largest town with 9,000 people and Laramie following with 5,000. The first president was the former governor of the terri tory, John W. Hoyt, unquestion ably a man of scholarly abilities His salary—$2,000. It was virtually tuition-free, the total fees for the first school year being $7.50. Estimated cost of liv ing for the entire year was $250 to $300. Those holding county “nominations” were admitted free. No restrictions were im posed as to race or creed, and women as well as men were ad mitted, as was the trend west of the Mississippi. As Wyoming’s only four-year institution of higher learning and its land-grant college, the University today regards every one ct the state’s 97,014 square miles as part of its campus. Clrsses began on a campus com prised of 17 acres. Today the University is contained over an area of 458 acres. The University’s current curri culum offers 105 programs of study within eight accredited col leges— including agriculture, arts and sciences, commerce and industry, education, engineering, law, nursing and pharmacy, and a graduate school * Located 7,200 feet above sea level, the University lays claim to being the “highest” university in the nation and consequently of having the coolest summer school in America. Two-year institutions, closely af filiated with and accredited by the University, are located in the communities of Casper, Sheridan, Powell, Torrington and Rock Springs. The serve has taken an increased stride as foreign nations pre sent dollars for exchange in gold. Unless the Congress takes strong action on restoring American protective tariffs, there is every indication this trend will continue. . • **# Half meas ures wit) not wort.
