Protecting Our School Children It is a great feeling of security and satisfaction to see our squad car patrolling our streets and highway. There is an officer on duty every morning, watching out for the safety of our youngsters as they wait for the school bus. Perhaps this will prevent a Recurrence of the accident which hospitalized Bobbie Ostrum some months ago. Our police officers ar? doing a wonderful job and deserve the cooperation of every resident in the village. Our Slip Is Showing Your reporter goofed on not One -- but TWO counts last Sorry To Hear That Joe Matterer is still hospitalized at Highwood hospital, Highland Park. His charming wife, Mabel, reports that he is showing improvement every day. A "sunshine shower" of cards helps the shut-ins a great deal, so let us not forget. Drop a card now, while the thought is fresh in your mind. Anchors A weigh! Hugh Houck is the latest member of our community to join the Armed forces. Hugh was sworn into the Naval Air Reserve at Glenview on March 7 and will be called to active duty in two weeks.

Hugh is having his last fling as a civilian, visiting his aunts and grandmother in Lawrenceberg, Ind., this week. Gossip Gleanings Fred Matthesius was questioned about his wife's birthday and the date of his anniversary. The muddled fellow just couldn't come up with the right answers! This calls for drastic action, Anne. Lennie Mager celebrated his birthday Sunday, March 11, driving into Chicago with a flat tire. His spare tire was gathering dust in a local garage! Good place for it. A delicious dinner was »ei*ved on Sunday by Betty Houck when the Houcks entertained the Mc- Ouat family. Sarah and Harry Mackin journeyed out from Chicago on Sunday to visit Jean and Hugh McDonald. Signs-of Growing Up Lynne Schultz played hostess to many youngsters for the occasion of her eighth birthday on Saturday, March 10.

The young ladies and gentlemen included Linda Passalaqua, Sandy Fairchild, Susan Swanson, Berniece and Diane 43jork, Marlene Passal, Geoffrey Houck, Liz Liebman and Chryssie and J. Ijt. Levesque.

Still Hurtin' Little Danny ^ Strach is still nursing a sore throat but most of the ill effects have worn off. Danny had his tonsils out at Sherman hospital, Elgin, last Friday.

HARDEST BUSIEST CHEAPEST WORKERS IN TOWN PLAINDEALER WANT ADS , CONVERTS LAND '. "Nine-tenths of the land in the twenty-thousand acre, fenced-in federal arsenal in Will county has been allowed to go back to its natural state. Here are wide reaches of grassy prairie such as were found all Across Northern and Central Illinois before the coming of white settlers. Glen D. Palmer, director of the state Department of Conservation and Col. Curtis L. Farrell, arsenal commandant, have long had their eyes on this vast enclosure as an ideal place for prairie chickens and sharp-tailed grouse. Now their plans are being put into effect. Last week a number of these two varieties of grouse, live-trapped in Nebraska, were turned loose in the arserial tract. The grounds are surrounded by a tight, eight-foot wire" fence and guarded by the U. S. Army. A trapper, hired by the federal government, works the year.. around to keep predatory animals killed off. Director Palmer is confident that prairie chickens and sharp-tailed grouse, practically extinct in Illinois, will multiply in the arsenal grasslands. Classified Ads bring results.

AMERICAN MOTORS MEANS i,Oi RE FOR AMERICANS mm Nash Ambassador CuSlom Country Club Hudson Hornet Custom Hollywood ....Rambler Custom Cross Country Noted publisher, columnist and television personality gets inside story of revolutionary advance in car construction from the President of American Motors. CERF: Mr. Romney, why do you offer a total of $25,000 insurance with your new cars? ROMNKYt It backs our claim that "single unit" construction makes the strongest, safest, most modern cars. CERF: Is there really that much difference between the way you and other manufacturers make cars? All the difference between yesterday's railway coach and to- ' day's streamliner. Other cars still use a principle old as the oxcart: A flat frame bolted under a separate body. In our cars, frame and body are welded as a "single unit". It's the biggest stride since the all-steel body. CERFi And this makes a safer car? ROMNEY: Twice as safe. Instead of a flat frame underfoot, our frame is a steel, box-girder enclosure as big as the car. It gives you "wraparound" protection in front, rear, Bides and top. CERFt That sounds like real protection. WIY:That's not all. Flat frames others use are stiff, so they transmit collision force throughout the car. Our big steel box-girders up front absorb most of the impact. They take the brunt of the punishment instead of passengers. CERF: What about performance? ROMNEY: That'sa real plus."Single unft" construction gives a better power-weight ratio. It's stronger and safer, but eliminates useless weight and bulk. Our cars have set many racing records. CERF: And economy? ROMNEY: They're tops. Rambler holds the gas mileage record in Mobilgas Economy Runs. Again, because our "hard-muscled" single unit avoids dead weight. CERF: I like room and comfort. Q©KAMEY: Nash and Hudson have more room inside than any highpriced car. Rambler equals medium- priced big cars. As for ride, the greater strength of our "single unit" lets us use larger springs, and superior front suspension. CERF: Isn't resale value important? ROMNEY: You bet. Rambler has top resale value in the low price field. In addition to other advantages, welded single unit cars last longer, make better used cars. CERF: If all you say.is true, why don't the Big Three make cars your way? ROMNKY: You see, mere "bigness" c^n be a handicap in advanced automobile engineering. One of the biggest of the "Big 3" was years behind others in adopting the allsteel body. The bigger you are, the more factories you have--the more it costs to change. CERF: I can understand that. lOMNEY: Beginning in 1940, we spent over $50,000,000 to develop the "single unit" car. Today, it will cost the biggest companies billions to re-tool for our method. CERF: Do you think they will follow you? ROMNEY: No doubt about it. Our major competitors will probably make the change gradually--piecemeal-- or one model at a time. Frankly, we will be happy to see our "single unit" construction adopted, because it will mean better, safer cars on American highways. CERF: Well, I'm about ready for another car. I'm going down to look at American Motors cars. ROMNEY: All I ask anyone to do is see and drive our modern "single unit" cars at a Nash or Hudson dealer's. The rest is up to you. At Your 'MW4WAM!
