Davis, \\' inn etka dealer. Rumors of startlin g advancements in eng ineerin g and radical changes in design , that preceded the actual announcement of the new lines, were responsible for overflow throngs in many of the large cities and town s.

The Multi-Range Gear Shift, an enti rely new principle in transmission, \Yhich greatly increases the power range. and the new system of carburetion embodi ed in the Down Draft Fuelization system, are standard equipment on the "77" and the "70" models.

This figure was widely quoted at the beginning of the .\·car as the probable production total. hut the abnormal output of the first six months caused some observers to change their estir' ates and raise the total. . Alfred Reeve s. general manager of the N. A. C. C., recently gave out an estimate that placed 1929 production at 5,200,000. SKOKIE·MOTOR CO.
