Pitched It was a dark and stormy night on Feb. 12--and so was Pat Bott's disposition before the night was over. On the way home from work the icy roads deposited Pat and her car in a deep ditch on At. 31. Except for the car that caused her to go off the road, not another came into view during her hike into McHenry for a tow truck, until she was a stone's throw from the nearest gas station. The weary and tearful Pat at that point could only answer the would-be helpful motorist with "Don't I have enough trouble already?" He laughted then, and she is able to laugh about it now that she is safe and uninjured and the car has been extracted from the posts it was wedged between. who were married 2$ Aaak!

Not likely. And it's not often you'll find a Corvair owner bothering to switch over to snow tires either. Why? Rear-engine traction. The engine weight over Corvair'a rear wheels gives them remarkable gripping power without any assist from special winter driving paraphernalia. Reassuring to know this time of year--and also in the months to <some when all that tidy white countryside turns into a melting pot that's likely to add to the misery. Another thing about Corvair's engine: It's bigger this year. Nearly 19 per cent more power in the standard version. Which !s something you'll appreciate most any tamo of year, fair weather or foul. You'll also appreciate not having to fool around with antifreezo* And not having to flush the radiator or fuss with hose connections. The engine's air cooled. Matter of fact, we have a feeling that if more people knew what a cinch Corvair makes winter driving, there wouldn't be quite so many- • looking for excuses to duck South this time every year. But then you never know. Corvair's a real kick to •1 mm drive in warm weather, too.
