Some of the forthcoming new models will emphasize these advances. They probably will be widely publicized by the car makers who have heard plenty of criticism from motorists about new models difficult to get into older garages.

In many instances the shorter overall length is being achieved by bringing rear bumpers closer to the body and by merging the front bumpers with the grille. Of course, this means sturdier grilles. Preliminary views of some of the new models including manv still in the mock-up stage, indicate most of the styling for 1950 models will retain the lower center of gravity. Despite some criticism about scanty headroom in the rear of some sedans the designers still are striving to avoid increasing the overall height of the new models. In cooperation with the engineers they are making additional efforts to further cushion the ride.

Driver and riders will be seated between front and rear axels on virtually every make of 1950 model car. In engineering, emphasis is certain to be placed on power plants with increased horsepower and the design that will permit a steady increase in compression, of course, has been increasing as higher quality fuel has become available. Most engineers, however, believe there still is room for further advances in compression ratios. Power output probably will be stepped up on a number of engines. Certainly some makes of cars introducing automatic transmissions for the first time, will need higher engine output.

This presents another problem in production costs, which all manufacturers are trying to cut down. There still has been no indication of how much the new transmission planned by Studebaker and Chevrolet will add to the price of their cars. In both instances they are understood to be of the torque converter type. This gives constant acceleration of speed and involves no gear shifting. The hydra-matic transmission used on Cadillacs.

Oldsmobile, Pontiacs and on Ford's Lincoln models differs in that lt automatically shifts gears from first to second, second to third and third to fourth speed.

Two all-time Texas league records were broken, along with probably a few pencils, when fourth-place Oklahoma City and sixth-place San Antonio bettW ed to a wild, 11-inning 13-13, tie last night. The game was called at the end of the 11th because of the curfew. The Fort Worth-Shreveport game was also called at the end of ten innings to allow the Sporta to catch a train.

The score was 3-all at the £ime. The seventh-place Beaumont Exporters whitewashed the third-place Dallas Eagles 10-0. And second- place Tulsa trounced last-place Houston 5-1. San Antonio scored nine runs in the fourth frame. Oklahoma City then tallied eight in the bottom of the fourth to tie the score, 13-13.

That ended the scoring for the night and established a new nine- inning scoring record for the runs. The teams also cracked an 18- year-old record for the number of pitchers used in one inning. The teams sent a total of seven to the mound in the fourth. Ten hurlers toiled for the two teams in all Fort Worth trailed 3-1 entering the bottom of the ninth. A broken bat single by Hank Wyse tallied two runs to tie the score.

Neither team could sscore in the tenth. Tulsa scored five runs in the first inning to down Houston. The tallies came off three hits, a walk and three errors by the Buffs Second baseman, Solly Hemus. Zeke Melignano hurled three-hit ball to subdue Dallas. Johnny Hernandez hit a leadoff homer in the second and a three- run homer his next time at bat, in the third.
