 "How to pick up a girl" will be practically illustrated tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock on Third street between Maryland and Pennsylvania avenues northwest.         Using a human being in their demonstration, the manufacturers, under the supervision of the traffic director's office, will show a recently devised scoop, which is designed so that when attached to the front of an automobile striking a person, injury is averted. – Washington Times, 9/10/25
