CARPENTIER Sccrctary of S t . i t c In less than a month the statisticians will go to work on the number of highway deaths, injuries and accidents which occurred this year: They'll be able to give us the grim toll taken by motorists who did not heed the rules of the road, who did not drive courteously and cautiously. Last year, 75 per cent of the nation's deaths and injuries on the highways were the result of excess sive fepeed, failure to grant the right-of-way and driving on the wrong side of the street We wonder if this sad tale will be repeated in 1955. Speed in itBelf does not cause accidents if properly handled. But it does increase the severity of accidents. Motorists should not only follow the law by granting the right-ofway, but must always be prepared to yield the right-of-way if such action is necessary to avoid a possible accident. DONT And the law requires that a motorist must not attempt to pass a vehicle on a curve, a hill or at any point where he does not have full view of the road for the sufficient time that it takes to pass (Sec. 58, Uniform Act Regulating Traffic). A copy of the completely new "Rules of the Road" booklet will be sent to you free upon request.

Jbirf so does the thrill Pitch ZJyxnaOawi* WITH ALL the big excitement of Buick's 1956 styling and power and ride and handling - it's easy to overlook this fact: Gas mileage in the '56 Buicks takes a big step upward. One reason, of course, is the new power plant itself. Every new Buick cradles an advanced 322-cubic-inch V8 engine with the highest horsepowers, Series for Series, in all Buick history. Yet every engine delivers more efficiency, pnrl more usable power to* the rear wheels--because each one has a new double "Y" manifolding, and a new high in compression ratio. But the major reason for the happy news in gas mileage-- and for the new step-up in safety and thrills--is Buick's latest version of Variable Pitch Dynaflow. In this airplane-principled transmission, you always had a pet 4-Seo»on Comfort in your new Buick with FRIGIDAiRE CONDITIONING--now at a eew low price1 gas-saving cruising range--and, at a switch of the pitch, a full-power getaway range. Now Buick engineers have brought to this cruising range what they call "double regeneration." It simply means * Hew way to make flowing oil add to its own velocity to buUd up driving fcrcc. - So now, you merely nudge the pedal to part throttle and get new breakaway getaway. And since you get this quicker, safer response in yotir normal cruising range--where you dpn't use full power-you get plenty more miles from every tankful of gas. But when you do need sudden safety-surge for emergencies, you just floor the pedal to switch the pitch. Instantly, you're at full-power acceleration--and it's the most thrilling safety measure in the land. How about coming in to try the most modern transmission yet? The absolute smoothness of this new Dynaflow is worth a visit in itself. So you can be sure you're in for a weajtb of wonderful surprises--for that's just the start of the best Buick yet. Can you make it this week? *New Advanced. Variable Pitch Dynaflow is the only Dynaflow Btuck builds today. It is standard on Roaamaster, Super and Century--optional at modest extra cost on the Special* m Mene OUASON ON TV £ Saturdoy WHEN KTTO AtfVOMOBUES Alt tUI&I SUICK Will MMO R. I.
