Description:

Picking up the challenge thrown down by west coast students who packed into a Volkswagen, 51 Wayne state University students prove the added comfort of Detroit's favorite product, the automobile, as they fit in, around, and on a 59 DeSoto Fireflite Station Wagon. It was all part of the week long campaign conducted by Sigma Alpha Mu fraternity to publicize their campaign for funds for Muscular Dystrophy.
