SATURDAY EVENING,
VALVE-IN-HEAD
AGE HAS ARRIVED
So Says Manager of Driscoll
Auto Co., Chevrolet Dis
tributors
"This is the valve-in-head &ge\
says P. Driscoll, of the Driscoll Auto
Company, distributors tor Chevrolet
motorcars in the local territory.
"This is the century of directness,
cleanness, power, power-economy, ef
ficiency," continued Mr. Driscoll to
the automobile representative of the
11ARR1SBURG yester
day.
"Tremendous forces of human en
ergy are to-day harnessed to the same
reins that drive mechanical energy
in the best gasoline motor that is
to say, the valve-in-head motor.
"In the curt, terse vigor of direct
ness lies the great secret of mod
ern efficiency.
"What is valve-ln-liead efficiency?
"First, it means working from tne
head. Then, it means working di
rectly to the point.
"Tnis means working through a
short-cut path—the cutting out of all
unnecessary angles and corners in
your action.
"Man or motor the principle of
the conservation of energy is the
>same.
"Motor efficiency of the valve
in-head sort —is gotten in the follow
ing manner:
"The gasoline—vaporized ajid mix
ed with air—is admitted into the
cylinder head. There is no side wait
ing room for it to loiter in before
ignition. It is brought directly over
tne piston head which it must drive
downward by the force of its ex
plosion.
"This is a short-cut from the first.
For when the ignition occurs, the im
pact of explosion strikes flat over
the piston head and drives it directly
downward.
"In other types of motors—of the
side chamber construction the im
pulse does not strike the piston head
directly.
"In these motors the propelling
force comes into contact with the
piston head at a glancing angle. It
is not a full blow, it is not 'max
imum power.'
"The valve-in-head straight for
ward action is efficiency itself.
"So close is the contact in the cyl
inder that there is no room for "bad"
gasoline to accumulate. After the
vaporized fuel has been ignited, the
return stroke of the piston expels
every bit of the exhaust gas.
"The new gas admitted from the
valve-in-head cliamuer is, therefore
entirely fresh and clean.
"And here is simplicity itself.
Chevrolet Valve-in-Head construc
tion when the valve cage is elimi
nated does away with 64 parts. And
here is accessibility itself. Valve-in
head common sense—as in the Chev
rolet type demands the detachable
cylinder head.
"The motor can be easily opened
for inspection at any time. The re
movable cylinder head is adjusted in
a few minutes.
"This is the sum of efficiency—the
height of economy of mechanical en
ergy. This is the result of direct
ness of action of accessibility
of simplicity.
"The Chevrolet Motor Company
has embodied this superior theory as
an exclusive feature from the first
day.
"Men are now accustomed to direct
ness of action in their business and
pleasure. They work hard—they play
freely. And they demand this, too,
of their motorcars. This Is the valve
in-head age."
