Inventor Makes Propeller-Driven Tricycle<\/strong><\/p>\n

A THREE-WHEELED vehicle constructed of airplane parts and powered by a two-cylinder motor and small propeller has been designed by John Dacy, a young inventor of Zion City, Ill.<\/p>\n

The rear part of the machine consists of an airplane landing gear on which is mounted the motor and propeller. In front of this is the pilot’s seat, suspended from a frame of steel tubing. The lone front wheel is connected by chain and wire to the steering apparatus.<\/p>\n

The propeller develops tremendous pushing power and gives the machine such high speed that its owner has no fear of traffic officers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
