Thursday, December 12,1963 THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Page Twenty-Oat , ' Pistakee Highlands MINISTER'S WORK HELPS SOLVE AREA ROAD PROBLEMS Kay SielltM-lv HYatt 7-8414 Because of the very hard working Rev. Doenecke, the top of BroHdway leading to the Mount Hope church has been graveled. This road is a mess and a hazard, nothing but mud holes and after a rain it is next to impossible to travel. Since this is a main road and is a short cut to the Highlands, the road needs to be" in shape. The minutes saved in the answering of a call by the Rescue Squad means so much. All of Broadway leading to the church and to the blacktop is a mess. It is impossible to avoid chuck holes. We of the Highlands are very happy to have a man like Rev. Doenecke take a interest in our community and do something about it. At least that stretch of road is now a pleasure to drive on. That part of the road has long been a bone of contention to the association, residents and the county.

A Christmas play by Buss Emerson Aspirin, that simple but beautifully Versatile drug found in every medicine cabinet, enjoyed a rediscovery in 1899. First created in 1853 it was known as acetyl-salicylic acid and was believed to be totally vorthless. Aspirin's new lease on life came about in a search for a substitute for salicylic acid, then one of the few major fever fighters and pain relievers known. A new and closer look at acetyl-salicylic acid brought to light its amazing worth in the battle against fever and pain, still the most prevalent of all disease symptoms. Whether it's your first visit or a rediscovery, you will find that your prescriptions are filled quickly and professionally at MILLSTREAM DRUGS, You will also find a wide selection of cosmetics and sundries for your added convenience at MILLSTREAM DRUGS, 3720 West Elm -- Jewel Shoppllig Plaza.

Patzke Phone 385-3278 ^903 Box $core: FORD'S TOTAL PERFORMANCE TOUGHNESS DOMINATES THE COMPETITION WORLD! Ford has chosen the most rugged testing program cars have ever faced . .. full-scale open competition on the rally and racing circuits of the world. This is the dramatic way to show that Fords have changed, and the sure way to be certain they keep on changing. Changed? Just look at the record: I i STOCK CAR RACING: 2-to-l margin for Ford---- Ford is king of NASCAR competition and Ford Motor Company has the NASCAR Achievement Award to prove it. In the '63 season, special Ford entries won every single race of 500 miles or longer, scored nearly twice as many points as any other make. 500-mile races are the ultimate test of inherent durability and dependability. In two other major stock car racing associations, IMCA and MARC, Ford drivers have wrapped up the 1963 championships. SPORTS CAR ROAD RACM0: Ford V-8 power is the new king Here the Cobra with its special Fairlane engine emerged as the overwhelming leader in one short year. Cobra won the coveted Manufacturer's Trophy in SCCA Class A Production competition by so wide a margin no other cars--U.S. or foreign--were even in sight. And in the two major tests this fall, the Laguna Seca and Riverside races, the new King Cobras dusted off the top "unlimited" cars from all over the world. RALLY COMPETITION: Manufacturer's Championship Products of Ford Motor Company and its worldwide affiliates won the 1963 Manufacturer's World Rally Championship. Ford's rally year began when two specially equipped Falcon V-8's startled the automotive world in the brutal 2500-mile Monte Carlo Rallye. Other special Falcon V-8's triumphed in Holland's famed Tulip Rally, and ran away witn the Manufacturer's Team Prize in the 4000-mile Traus-Canada Rally. BUHANftPflff' Ford ends an era Advanced Ford engineering smashed precedent in the classic Indianapolis "500." The first time out, a light alloy version of the Fairlane V-8 design in a Lotus chassis finished second. And the next time, in the Milwaukee "200" it ended *'ie reign of the traditional "Indy" racing car by leading every foot of the way from start to finish. PERFORMANCE t ECONOMY: New laurels for Ford The Mobil Economy Run underscored Falcon's yeaxslong reputation for thrift-- a Falcon scored first in Class B (medium-engined compacts). And the Pure Oil Performance Trials brought laurels to the big Fords, which walked off with overall wins in Classes I and II for total performance (economy, tion and braking). \/ 1964 Result: TOTAL PERFORMANCE INSPIRES THE TOUGHEST, SMARTEST CARS FORD EVER BUILT! Fords have changed--and that's the real reason behind Ford's racing successes. We're now making the longest lasting, best handling cars in our history--because competition provides a kind and an intensity of testing that no proving ground can ever equal. What we learn from the specially equipped cars we race helps us make your car better. Racing inspires a level of engineering skill far above ordinary commercial needs. The inherent qualities that make the victorious racing car--road-holding, braking, durability, precision control, resistance to vibration-- also make a car safer, stronger and smoother for normal highway use. This isn't theory; all you have to do is take the wheel of any of our new Fords. Five minutes on the road will show you a total performance no one HBP has been able to achieve.
