    PIERRE MARTY of Marty's Foreign Motors proudly shows off part of a new shipment of Italian
    Gino Bartali motorcycles at his Culver City showroom. The two bikes on the ends are 175 cc
    scramblers, which put out 10.2 hp at 6500 rpm and weigh only 195 lbs. The center machine
    is a 1 25 cc job with a weight of only 175 lbs. Both models are painted in the brightest color
    combinations we've seen in a long time and have done well in overseas competition.

    DIGGING UP THE DESERT on his recent visit to this country. Associated Motor Cycles Sales
    Manager Jock West tries his experienced hand at the kind of riding that his machines are
    widely employed for here. Discussing his ride (at right) with Distributor Frank Cooper and
    Matchless Ace Vern Hancock, West said, “You’re lucky to have so many miles of desert to
    compete on. There is nothing like it in England."
