Where have all the fishles gone? They're at the trout farm, and that's where grandson Larry caught a big one; but nothing bit his bait around here during the family's weekend visit at Ve and Roy Schroeder's.

Candle Capers A puppet' show presentation of "Rumplestiltskin" by the female members of the Fail family was the highlight of the twins' seventh birthday party. Melody and Merily's guest audience were Pat and Mike Maule, Lisa Heinzelman, Patty Anderson, Gayle Garn, Debbie Fuqua, Richard Milliard and Ernie Olsen. I-dare-you-to-break-myballoon and other party games preceded the cake and ice cream session, and the grand afternoon ended with le grande game of tag. Lu Davis was guest of honor on her natal day at a luncheon at Bernice Fry's. Carol Kennebeck was not a stranger in the crowd. Karen Schneider's birthday fell on her bowling day, which made her queen pin (?').

Popny.zJensen had his maternal grandparents, aunt, uncle, t cousins, and some friehds ove^ to help, him celebrate his second birthday. Being especially fond of ice cream, he blew out his candles just to humor the adults so that he could get down to the serious business of devouring his favorite food. Although he received a ride-ityourself tractor from his parents, he had a strong attraction for another gift: a big ball which he would share with no one. Thinks Donny, "We big ball owners would rather fight than share!" George Kropf was thrilled with j the lovely delicious white cake baked by and presented by lirida Janicki on his birthday. That was just a sampler of gbod things to come, George. Right, < Linda? The Senkeriks hosted Mildred's sister and her family on Tony's :birthday. The big trip all the way from Ringwood is an annual event for Tony's annual day. Another case of so near and yet so far.

Found any yet, Al? There was the usual array of gifts, but what really pleased Karl Rau was the birthday cake Henrietta "baked for him. A real and rare treat. - Tom Brotherton was, presented with original drawings by each of his little sons--far dearer gifts than purchasable ones -- although he didn't cotriplain about those either. Candle blowing preceded the, evening of bowling. A report on the better, (? > half of the April 7 Simmonses: Mel celebrated with a family affair attended also by brother Floyd from Chicago. (And then he rushed off to a board meeting!) How twin brother Jim celebrated, Mel has not yet heard. Warren Siepman had Ronnie Fiedler, Buster Simmons, brother Howie, and of course baby Andy gathered round to watch him blow out four candles on Friday. He was thrilled to get 16" sidewalk bike, £tfid his cowboy hatband cowboy boots for his "cowboy feet"-- ask Warren: only he, if anyone, can explain that one! The family party was held on EastWr when he had a bunny cake. The Zeigers went out dining and dancing on Adaline's twenty-fifth birthday. Yes, but what did you do THIS year, Adaline? -- besides have your son home from spring vacation? college for Wishing Well Wishes Five-year old Johnny Kanter had a real nightmare , last Saturday night: in an attempt to escape the big bee in his dream he cracked his head on the metal headboard, was rushed to the hospital, and had: four stitches put in.

According to the Institute for Safer Living, late afternoon "going home" traffic is particulaiy hazardous because drivers generally have reached a low mental and physical level. Many are fatigued from the day's work. Nearly everyone is anxious to reach home or other destinations. Heavy traffic and frequent delays build up tension and increase impatience.

New 200-mph "GT" is Ford's next competition entry Within a few weeks Ford will enter the fantastic world of Grand Touring competition. Ford will start with a 200- mile-pex-Hour projectile, a sleek, tiny coupe called the Ford GT. This vehicle will explore ducted ventilation, forced-air cooling of seats, integral seat-and-body cQnstruction, • high-performance automatic transmission, streamlining, low-rate independent springing --and fabulous standards of roadabilitv and control. Ford believes that this remarkable new car will eventually come up with many solutions to make travel safer, smoother ind more economical. . Ford is committed to racing for one simple reason: every time it goes to the races--win or lose--you always win. Ford sngineere always learn something that helps them build a better car. That's why Ford is willing ^o lay its deputation on the line in almost any kind of open competition anywhere in the world. Ford's not after trophies, it's after knowledge --and gets it! I All . manufacturers have Elaborate proving grounds and test facilities. But no proving ground. can come within a country,.mile of the intense pressures and the immediate deadlines of racing. That's understandable; the will-to- Win can't be built in as a proving ground factor and any failures are obviously hidden from the public view. Ford didn't enter the world Of open competition on a whim or for amusement. The history of the automobile shows that o£en competition is the most Severe of all testing procedures; it really does "improve the breed." It tests--but it .also spurs ideas and brings them to the open market sooner. Better still, it creates ft cadre of adventurous and /orward thinking engineers and nurtures them with a climate of challenge and change. Particularly important, Ford didn't enter open competition on any narrow front or for any limited time. Ford wanted all the lessons it could get--and wanted to keep at it long enough for the findings to be passed down, in whole or in part, to the kind of cars you drive. That's why Ford is in stock car racing and the far-out sphere of the Indianapolis "500" ... in the world's great rallies such as the Monte Carlo and the Shell Trans- Canada ... in the intense competition of quarter-mile drag racing ... in hill-climbs like Pikes Peak ... in sports car road racing (and stock car road racing) ... in endurance runs and economy trials. And why Ford is about to enter the super competition of Grand Touring racing with our 200-mile-per-hour Ford GT. No auto manufacturer in history has ever been in so many categories of competition. And Ford believes that no line of cars has ever benefited so much, so quickly-- and that means the owners of Falcons, Fairlanes, Fords and Thunderbirds are the ones who really benefit. atest win gives Ford 11 out of last 12 NASCAR 500 milers! ATLANTA, April 5: In a blazing exhibition of total performance, ace driver Fred Lorenzen piloted his specially modified '64 Ford to a stunning victory in the Atlanta "500" before a cheering crowd of 75,000 spectators. This victory marks the 11th time that Ford has captured a NASCAR stock car event of 500 miles or more, starting with the Charlotte "600" m May, 1962. In the past two years, tough, dependable Fordbuilt cars have carved out an incredible history of victories in virtually every kind of automotive event possible--from stock car races to economy runs, from rallies to endurance tests. Ford has chosen the most rugged testing program that cars have ever faced . . . full-scale open competition. 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! • A dramatic maiden effort at Indianapolis, when two Ford-powered Lotuses came within seconds of taking the 500-mile classic. • A team of specially equipped Falcons won 2 classes and took 2nd place overall in the 1964 Monte Carlo Rallye. • The 1964 "Car of the Year" Award from Motor Trend magazine, presented for the concept of total performance and the open competition that proved it. Ford enters special cars in open competition; in addition to its extensive laboratory and test track programs, because competition provides an intensity of testing that no proving ground alone can provide. The lessons Ford has learned in racing have already led directly to such refinements as a stronger rear axle, streamlined "fastback" styling, better brakes and an improved ignition system. Because Ford enters open competition, the cars at your Ford Dealer's are stronger, better handling, safer and thriftier in the long run. They're built for total performance. The unexpected...
