The many authorizations last year were due to completion of the new Texa* Illinois natural gas pipeline from the gulf coast of Texas to Joliet fror\p which Public Service received an additional supply of gas. All ga« heat requests filed prior to Sept. 1. 1951, have been authorized, it was stated. Continuation of the restriction order, in effect since July, 1946, is necessary, it was said, until further additional supplies of gas become available.

ILL. 4'^- v.; fr-' ".ft It makes e9ch\dr^o£gas siy; uncle ACCORDING to combustion experts^ jCjl. there's as much energy locked in a drop of gasoline as there is in a drop of nitroglycerine. But the problem is to put that energy to work. 1 '.f. So Buick engineers aren't content jusii to mix that drop with air and touch it off. They've designed an engine that brings it catapulting into a cylinder head where it strikes a turbo-top piston--gets whipped into a churning, swirling ball of tight-packed energy. Then it's fired. And when that happens, a drop of gasoline certainly lets loose fcower. This isn't something that happens in a "car of the future." It happens in a Buick Fireball 8 Engine today. It's a high-compression engine^ want it to do--true and sure in its course on a straightaway--beautifully balanced on curves. " ~|t's a car with Dynaflow Drive* to feed power with infinite smoothness--and a road-hugging levelness of ride that took ft million in cold cash to perfect. t's a valve-in-head engine. But it's also--And it is, with all this, a very tidy a Fireball in performance as well as bargain. Why not price it, drive it, know Dame. it for yourself? We'll be glad to.arrange And it puts extra power under the hooct a demonstration. -- -- --and extra miles in the fuel back in the gas tank. Now, power is great, but what goes with it? Mister, that's something you ought tor find out--and soon. What goes with it is an automobile as sweet-handling, eager and willing as anything that ever made your pulse leap to a faster beat.
