Automobile springs made of rub-
ber instead of steel were described
at Ann Arbor, Mich., recently be-
fore the automotive physics sym-
posium of the American Institute
of Physics..
The springs, capable of with-
standing severe strain, and of re-
gaining their original shape when
stress is removed, were developed
in the B. F. Goodrich Company
laboratories. W. F. Busse, director
of the laboratories, said tests had
proved their practical use.
