NEW TRAILER LIGHT, AND EASILY STORED

INGLEWOOD, CALIF. -- Irene Kreger has no

trouble carrying the parts of a new auto

trailer for the complete assembly weighs

only 50 pounds. It takes only five minutes

to take the trailer apart for storage in a

closet at home or in the luggage compartment

of your car, and about the same time to re-

assemble it for attaching it to the rear

bumper of your car. Two small knobs secure

the trailer hitch to the bumper, and an auto-

matic lock prevents accidental detachment.

The trailer is made of tubular aluminum

frame, covered with waterboard canvas. It

can carry loads up to 400 pounds. Assembled,

the trailer is 33 inches tall. The body

measures 42 inches wide, 54 inches long and

10 inches deep. The single pneumatic tire

permits smooth and straight riding. Intro-

duced here by the McCullogh Motors Corp., the

trailer is expected to retail at $87.
