The Commander Potomac Chapter The Commander Studebaker Drivers Club Volume 47 Issue 3 May 2015 The 2015 Potomac Chapter of the Studebaker Drivers Club Spring Tour Newport News, Virginia By Mary Walter This year’s spring tour started in Frederick Maryland with four cars. By the time we reached Lowery’s Restaurant in Tappahannock we were a caravan of seven. After lunch and a fill-up at June Parker’s Gas Station, we continued on to Newport News. The hotel was a welcome sight as everyone was road-weary and in need of a rest before dinner. Lunch at Lowery’s was ample so there was no formal club dinner. Some smaller groups ate at the Second Street American Bis- tro and Tida Thai and others skipped dinner entirely. It must have been prom night judging by the many high school students seen in tuxes and gowns that evening. By the next morning our caravan had grown to eight cars and we set out for the Mariner’s Museum. We found our tour guide eagerly awaiting our arrival and ready to get started. He was quite knowledgeable about naval history and shared some interesting tidbits such as how the Monitor’s gun turret malfunctioned during its critical battle or that the many mustard bottles found on the Monitor were not used for holding mustard but rather served as personal whisky flasks for sailors. The Civil War Battle of Hampton Roads is explored in depth in this museum. It involved the first two ironclads ever built, the USS Monitor and the CSS Virginia and there were models of both in all sizes ranging from a few inches to full scale. Parts of the actual Monitor are undergoing restoration on-site. A replica of the captain’s quarters of the Monitor was on display and some of us were surprised by its size and elegance, small by cruise-ship standards, but for the 172 foot ironclad, quite extravagant. A film detailed the events of the four-hour battle which included direct quotes from the captain and crew and artist’s conceptions of the events, while the boom of gunfire and flashes of light from the ceiling above brought the drama to life.

Sadly we did not, since our kids were in the Stotesbury regatta in Philadelphia, where they represented their high school; both were in 8-person shells. The event took place on the Schuylkill River; it is the largest national regatta (698 boats entered). Our team had an entry in the adaptive double race (a team member is paired in a 2-man skull with another member with a physi- cal handicap) - and they won a national gold medal! This "pairing" put me to thinking - might such a pairing encourage new membership in PSDC? When first joining, I remember having may questions (who does good mechanics in my ar- ea, who does interior or exterior appearance work, who sells parts, etc.) If we paired with new/ prospective members, maybe owning an antique car would seem less intimidating. (Studes are fun, but they do take a lot of specialized knowledge.) Perhaps some of our more knowledgable mem- bers would volunteer to be "big brothers"? Just thinking....

The remaining wrinkles disappeared after a few days. 4 Potomac Chapter Spring Picnic Sunday, June 7th, 2015 After suffering vast quantities of sycamore tree pollen and a severe lack of parking spaces at Devil’s Back- bone Park last spring, we decided to move our Spring Picnic to the Washington County Maryland Agricul- tural Center, south of Hagerstown, Maryland on the Sharpsburg Pike (Maryland Highway 65). This excellent venue has been the site of our fall picnics for several years. So, the Spring Picnic will be held rain or shine, dining starting at 1:30 pm.

During the 1920s and 30s Studebaker produced high-end cars such as the President and the Champion that marked engineering firsts in the automobile world. During World War II, Studebaker produced a line of military vehicles for the United States Army. The management of Studebaker repeatedly had trouble with labor costs and quality control issues. In an attempt to stabilize their financial situation, Studebaker merged with Packard Motor Car Company of Detroit during the 1950s. Though the merger helped to diversify the selection of vehicles, including the creation of the very successful Lark and Avanti, it did not create the financial stability that the owners hoped. The competition from the “Big 3” automobile manufacturers proved too much competition for a small company like Studebaker.

    Potomac Chapter The Commander Studebaker Drivers Club Volume 50 Issue 7 July 2018 Celebrating Clete’s 90th Birthday Celebrating Cletes’s 90th Birthday Murray and I received a call from Steve White about someone wanting to give their father a ride in a 1950 Studebaker (his first car) on July 8 his 90th birthday. We had no other plans and it seemed like a fun thing to do. We arrived around 1:00 p.m. at the party location and all were ready and waiting including Clete Roth, the birthday boy, wearing his Studebaker cap. Everybody enjoyed our visit and Clete sat in the drivers’ seat (at the same time he was born 90 years ago) and you could tell memories were flooding back. The pictures tell the story. Clete has joined our chapter.
