' NEW CONTINENTAL TOURS

EIOR next season, James Smith and I Co. (Wigan), Ltd., has extended its Continental programme of fours. In addition to two regular departures to Switzerland every week, tours are to be undertaken to the Pyrenees, Paris and the Riviera.

Improvements to the coach bodies include the provision of full-width cabs, enabling the courier to sit in front with the driver in Continental fashion, and of radio sets with microphone attachments.
