Keith McClure No one asks the question more than the auto makers— and more so all the time. By 1975 they will outnumber male drivers iit the United States, according to a car marketing survey made recently. There will be 32.5 million women in the work force, 00 per- cent of them married. 'Wotnen bought 34 percent of a. popular sports model: car in the past year and their preference made the compact fashionable. More women drive today than knit or sew. Whitt are women's tastes in cars? As their driving experience piles up they are demanding safety, reliability and goad service first and color and styling to a less degree. Which should help make some Wingham husbands feel better about their judgment in handling the family car budget. Human nature being what it Is, women will always be feminine and a little hazy on technical points. Bat they get "A for effort." A woman's magazine recently gave these technical deft- rattans to its feniale readers; "Carburetor—A blender. In- stead of mixing flour and liquid into a batter before bak- ing, the carburetor mixes air and gas so it will burn prop-erly; Oil niter—Acts like a vegetable strainer but catches grit and sludge instead; Exhanat System—A vacuum cleaner for engine gases, but with a difference; it's quiet." See you next Thursday.
