For this strapping sweep of ear is a Buick Special—solid Buick

that brings you brilliant new getaway response and bigger
gas mileage in your normal driving range - plus sizzling new
fll-power safety-surge when you floor the pedal and switch
the pitch.
And it comes, of course, from Buick size and solidity and steadi-
ness — and all dressed up in Buick’s new sweep-ahead style.
So why nt come in and try one on for size?
Drop in this week and borrow a key. What happens from that
point on is pure thrill — aided-and. abetted by low prices that
makethis thgbest buy yet. - ■—— r-------

Early in the 1955 season Newk
incurred the displeasure of Man-

pitch in batting practice. He said
it would interfere in his efforts to
take his regular pitching turn. Al-

back to win 10 games in a row and
