ON A KING SIZED APOTHECARY SCALE the new
Chrysler Corporation automotive gas turbine engine (left) is
revealed to be lighter than a reciprocating piston engine.
The comparable weights involved here are: the turbine, 450
pounds; lovely Verna Layne, 116 pounds, and the V-8 piston
engine, 700 pounds. The gas turbine picture^ , here powered a
1962 Dodge Turbo Dart on a 3,000-mile test run from New
York to Los Angeles.

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.

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.
