News in Brief: Air Flivver. Moulton Taylor comes up with the latest in ground and air travel, as he demonstrates how a car buzzing along the highway can be transformed into a plane in less than ten minutes. And he takes off in it, too. Funny-looking car drives down the road, pulling a long trailer-type thing; the vehicle has a symbol on the side that looks like Mobil Oil's flying horse emblem. Airport; the little aerocar is converted into an airplane by having the wing and tail portions attached. The small plane takes off. Neat. Unusual, aviation, transportation, invention.
