The Leader this week contains a number of advertise- ments within its pages on new autos. Noticeable among announcements are a variety of new aluminum engines; lubricating systems; new compact, medium and autos; styling large-size- d changes, and suspension systems. For those familiar with the foreign auto lines and with deroad velopments of "drag-stripand track racing devotees, several innovations first seen in these areas are appearing in production models. Uniformly, the 1950's trend toward, bigger, chromier, more powerful, finnier and fancier autos appears to have stopped with stress on economy and reductions in length and width, with increased manueverability.
