Well, mister, the closest we can come to

something like the mighty thrust of an

The Baltimore College of Dent-
al Surgery was th. first such col-
lege in the world to be incorpo-
rated.
All of which is another way of saying
that this newest and finest of Buicks can
rev up to 170 horsepower, the highest in
its distinguished history.
Now, you seldom need all this horse-
power. But it’s nice to know you can
boss it around—even if you use no more
than an eighth of it at 40 miles an hour.
But buick engineers never do things
by halves.
In the process of getting this whopping
new charge of power, Buick engineers
also came up with more miles per gallon
from gasoline.
Las Vegas, Nev. The actor’s agent
was identified as Harry Hunt of
Los Angeles.
Matthews is rated as one of the
top ligitt-heavyweignt contend-
ers.
Rose ever knew fear he didn’t
show it. He smashed his car to
pieces in the 1945 race. A few
minutes later he was strolling
calmly through the pits, charging
his pipe.
Last Memorial Day his car lost
a wheel and landed upside down
in the infield. He survived be-
cause he knew how to hang on,
and because he dropped into deep
mud. Again he was back in the
garage area a few minutes later
showing no signs of nerves.
Bust the chances Mauri didn’t
mind taking for himself, he can’t
take for his two children, he de-
cided. The mother of Mauri Jr.,
10, and Dory, 8, is dead. Mauri is
divorced from his second wife.
He has decided, he said last night
at his home in Van Nuys, Calif.,
He can’t afford to risk his life
now.
A common octopus in captiv-
ity may devour its own arms even
though it is amply supplied with
its normal food.

And they did it with one of the neatest
bits of ingenuity we’ve seen in years.
Instead of building a whole new engine
—they focused on ways to feed a better
mixture to the great Fireball Engine
they already had. A mixture of fuel,
which costs money, and air, which is
free.
The result was the Airpower Carbu-
retor-a four-barrel automatic—which
works on a booster principle.
Two barrels arc sized and designed to
supply the just-right thrifty mixture of
fuel and air for anything from smooth-
running idle up to some 40 or 50 miles an
hour.
Then—when you call for more power—
for a quick spurt out of a tight spot-for
an unbroken gait up a steep hill—or for
full-throttle operation—the reserves go
into action.
You have two more barrels—to feed the
just-right thrifty mixture for extra
power — something like “second wind.”

Life’s great behind this great-
powered eight, but that’s only part of
the story.
The rest is about interior styling stepped
up to a new plateau of excellence and
taste—of silencing to a point where a
whisper sounds almost loud inside this
car in motion — of bigger brakes and a
smoother ride—and of Power Steering*
as you have always hoped it might be
perfected.
How about coming in and getting that
story soon?

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 30 (A) —
Mauri Rose, 46, one of the best
competitors in any sport, has re-
tired from auto racing.
For the last 15 Memorial Day
500-mile races at Indianapolis
motor speedway, the top drivers
considered Rose the man to beat.
He won in 1947 and 1948 and
was co-winner with Floyd Davis
in 1941. He was leading in 1949.
20 miles from the finish, when a
broken magnet strap forced him
out of the race.
Two years ago. Fire broke out
in his pit while he was refueling.
He leaped into the car with
smoke and corbon dioxide fumes
still swirling around the cockpit
and roared back into the race.
A cocky little guy with a big
moustache and bigger pipe, if
Denmark, 16,575 square miles
- in area, is as large as Massachu-
1 setts, Connecticut and Rhode
Island together.

In the season’s most one-sided
affair, the Tigers swamped the
Winnsboro Red Raiders at the
local gym Tuesday night by the
score of 65 to 14. At top strength
for the first time since the Sul-
phur Springs game, the local
boys took charge at the start,
Dale Gafford, son of Mr. and
Mrs. W. P. Gafford, who has
been attending school in Mexico
City, has accepted a position with
Anderson-Clayton Company of
Houston.
and held a 33 to 4 lead at the
half, with Winnsboro scoring only
one field goal the first quarter,
and none in the second. The sec-
ond half of play saw the Tigers
stretch their lead to 57 to 7 early
in the final period, and it was at
this point that the “B” team
took over. Winnsboro still had
made only one field goal at this
time, but managed to make four
the last quarter.
Jerry Southerland led the
Tigers with 15 points, followed
bi' “Boogie” Rushing with 14,
and Joe Nelson with 11. Kennem-
er and Landers led the Raiders
with 3 each. The “B” game was
won by the Red Raiders 48 to 38.
The Tigers journey to Pitts-
burg Friday night to take on
the winless Pirates in their next
District game, with first game
scheduled to start at 6:30.
Mouse Fouls Up
Tractor Motor
VERDON, Nebr. (PP) — A field
mouse immobilized a tractor be-
longing to Harvey Fritz.
When the tractor’s engine lock-
ed, Fritz took the tractor to
mechanics who removed the
engine head and found a quantity
of finely-pulverized corn above
the piston in the firing chamber. >
The sabotaging mouse had
climbed in through the manifold
into the head and had hidden
kernels of corn in the cylinder.
