THE DE LUXE FORD
Here It Is !
The Fordcr Sedan is the de lux car of the new Ford pas.
senger car line and has many features that are new and exclu
sive in low priced cars.
It is distinctive from the other Ford passenger cars in ex
terior appearance. The cowl sweeps down in a graceful curve
from a raised panel at the windshield to a narrow moulding,
which runs from the front of the hood on a straight line back
and around the car. This gives the body a long, low effect.
Another feature that adds much to the exterior* appearance
is the roll belt effect below the windows, which rolls down to
the narrow moulding. The tcp and rear quarters have rounded
corners and are covered with a pyroxylin coated material of a
tan shade, in pleasing contrast with the body colors. There is
a ventilator in the lower panel of the cowl on the left side, for*
greater driving comfort.
The interior of the car has a strikingly rich and inviting ap
pearance. The trimming is of light brown effect with deeply
cushioned seats upholstered in soft brown hairline cloth, a high
ly effective combination. The cushions are of the lounge style
with overstuffed plain panels. Arm rests in the rear compart,
ment are another convenience. Seats in both compartments
are deeply cushioned, wide and most comfortable. The attract
iveness of the interior is further enhanced by the use of emboss,
ed panelling on, the door and around the ends of the seat in the
front compartment. This is a decidedly distinctive touch, such
as might be expected only in custom built bodies. An ova! bow
light in the rear compartment and a flexible robe rail are other
pleasing and serviceable features. The hardware is all nickel
ed in a conservative style of scroll effect and is all of uniform
design in harmony with other interior trimmings.

MURATHOK MCE THIS
YEAH WILE AGAIN BE
BIG EVENT ON FOUHTH
The Marathon Mountain Race. Thou,
eandg and thousands of words have
been written in the description of
this great race, a race in which brawn,
skill! and raw courage counts and only
a man with these qualities can emerge
victorious in the long, grim grind of
the Marathon. A fast killing* race is
the opinion of those who have gone
over the course and one which class
should tell.
This event, the outstanding attract.
Jon of the Fourth of July Celebration,
is one that Seward may well be proud
of. One of the first questions a tourist
asks upon arrival is the location of
the Marathon Mountain he has heard
so much about. It therefore can readi
ly be seen the great amount of publi.
city that is being derived from this
event.
Alec Bolem's record for racing up
and down the mountain, 3,000 ft. in
height, 54 minutes and 12 seconds, es.
.ablished in 1916, still stands, and
from all indications will remain for
sometime as the racers in later years
have never come within minuteg of it.
Two years ago Eric.Eckman won
the Marathon in 58 'minutes, 26 sec
onds; Werner Ohls from Anchorage
came in second, 69 minutes, 47 sec:;
Ed Vogle, the 1925 champ, finished
third, time 72 minutes, 2 seconds.
Eckman again captured first money
last year crossing the line in 61 min.,
! 17 seconds; Ohls came in right be.
- 1
hind him, 62 minutes, 20 seconds. Maxi
;
Schellbarger, also of Anchorage, took
third money. G5 minutes, 17, seconds,!
and Howard Seferovich stepped across!
the tape at 65 minutes 32 seconds.
It is kown there are several in train.!
| ing for the race but the complete list
( is not yet known. Those desiring to
| compete are asked to turn their names
1 into the Fire Department.
