By Ray Zelewsky £ Fee Vee That Canadian pay-TV test is now in its second year, and the outcome is rumored to be poor. There wasn't a subscription fee for the testing subscribers, just a $5.00 connection charge and you pay according to the programs you want by dropping coins in a special box (frt connects you to your program. Movies run from 25c to a $1.00, and special events cost at least $1.00. Regular programs are free as always. Average income for each connection must be $2.00 per week for the sending company to break even, and this hasn't been reached according to latest reports. We have mixed feelings ^iout pay television at CUSTOM T.V., but it's interesting to note the results of these tests. Meanwhile, keep your TV viewing sharp and clear and reasonably priced with the TV maintenance phone number EV 5-3757 or 5-565$. We guarantee to > satisfy.

"luxurious" . : . "beautiful" . : : "brilliant"--there are many words that might be used to describe the new 1962 Cadillac car. But if we were to select from the Cadillac vocabulary the one word that most completely captures the essence of this latest "car of cars" --we would choose "masterful". For here is a motor car that has already established its mastery in everything that makes an automobile good and fine and desirable. In appearance, it is clearly a Cadillac masterpiece-- graceful, clean-lined and elegant. In performance, it is a revelation. Its power plant is a reservoir of silken power--and the car rides and handles with an instinctive ease and sureness. In safety, it is in a class of its own--with a host of exclusive features, including remarkable new side cornering lights. In craftsmanship, it is simply without rival. Every 1962 Cadillac will undergo more than 1400 inspections to assure its quality and goodness. On and on the list could go. But however lengthy, that list could never replace the experience of inspecting the car and driving it. Your dealer will happily let you do both. Once you have, you'll understand why the word has gone out so quickly that this is the finest motor car ever to bear the Cadillac name. \ VISIT YOUR LOCAL AUTHORIZED CADILLAC DEALER OViiTON CADILLAC • PONTIAC COMPANY 1112 N.
