From The Indianapolis Star, Sunday September 19, 1915: A motor car class offering instructions in the mechanism and the driving of automobiles is the latest course addition to the Young Women’s Christian Association curriculum. The class will meet in the basement of the YWCA building, 329 N. Pennsylvania, where the automobile chassis will be placed for demonstration. Each lesson will take up a different phase of automobiling to train a woman how her car is put together and what to do in case of accidents. The class is the only one of its kind in Indiana and bids fair to be a popular one in Indianapolis considering the great number of feminine automobile drivers. The class will be conducted under the direction of Richard M. Wiley, proprietor of Wiley Automobile & Machine Co.
