I did a search through Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature which included Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, and Mechanix Illustrated from the year 1932 to 1937. I found one article in Popular Science in 1937 attributed to George M. Clark. I found a sequence of articles with plans in Popular Mechanics running from February to April 1936. The citation would be: Popular Mechanics 65:284-8, 445-9, 604-608. I wan unable to see most of the pages because they'd been ripped from the magazine though I did get a copy of the first page of the second part which shows the overall view and a isometric of the internal body structure. The article pieces I've seen were not attributed to any author but I didn't find the beginning of the article. The ISU library has the magazine on microfilm, but I wasn't up to digging through the microfilm. I've attached a scan of the page I copied. The second part suggested that the covering be 1/8" hardboard and that if the joints are made flush and filled, it can be painted with auto body paint. Working with the citation above, any reference librarian should be able to find a set of copies by interlibrary loan. Gerald J.
