NEW CHEVROLET MODELS FEATURE
VS ENGINE AND LONGER SPRINGS
Pronounced mechanical advan
ces plus new riding coiptort and a
complete re-styling of bodies give
Chevrolet for 1955 its most spec
tacular model announcement.
No major part of the car has
been overlooked in the broadscale
improvement program. Driving
ease and riding comfort benefit
along with the creation of fresh
automotive design. The accom
plishment. says the company, has
been possible only because of a
thorough job of product re-engin
eering and the tremendous new
plant facilities Chevrolet added
this year,
year.
The 1955 models went on display
at dealer showrooms nationally
Thursday. From an extraordinar
ily long list of new features the
public will see, these are partic
ularly outstanding:
1. First automobiles in the low
price field to reflect the ‘‘dream
car" influence of the General Mo
tors Motorainas. All roofs have
been visibly lowered with a cor
responding reduction in hood and
belt lines to accentuate a longer,
fleeter appearance. Overall, se
dans have been lowered two and
one half inches, station wagons
as much as six. At the same time,
passenger room has been increas
ed.
2. First VS engine offered on a
Chevrolet in 35 years. Named the
"Turbo-Fire V8,” the V8 delivers
162 horsepower.
3. Higher horsepower ratings and
new quietness and smoothness in
two “Blue Flame” sixes. A 123
horsepower engine is availa b 1 e
with the manual gearshift. The
six built exclusively for the Power
glide automatic transmission now
developes 136 horsepower.
4. Integrated body and frame de
sign. An important reduction in
vibration has been effected and
weight saved. The frame is more
rectangular and twist-resistant.
5. Front and rear suspensions re
vamped. Added riding comfort and
roadability, Chevrolet states, are
assured by vastly improved sus
pensions. At the front, a modern
version of the ball-joint design
aids car handling and steering as
well as comfort. One improvement
new to the industry is a control
arm geometry that cancels out
most of the objectionable “dive"
that often accompanies brake
stop. The suspension also applies
a new and more durable light
weight bearing material while the
design decreases lublication points
from 16 to 4. Rear suspension im
provements include leaf springs
nine inches longer to an overall
length of 58 inches. For stability,
rear spring mounts are outside the
frame, after the fashion of the
Chevrolet Corvette.
6. Increased safety through
greater visibility. The gain is due
largely to the extension of glass
over areas that have been "blind
spots” since the early days of the
automobile.
7. Optional overdrive. An over
HERE'S HEALTH! By Lewis
BEEF AND FRESH VEGETABLE STEW
- TODAY'S BEST FOOD BUY -
A rich, brown beef stew full
of fresh vegetables is every
body’s favorite one-dish meal.
It’s nutritious, too. The carrots,
onions and potatoes provide the
vitamins, minerals and energy
we need. The beef gives us
health-giving protein.
This fall the country’s beef
and fresh vegetable industries,
together with the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture, have en
tered into a co-operative drive
JZ5
to promote beef stew. In the first
campaign of its kind, these great
industries are helping the con
sumer in two ways. They are
helping us take advantage of
nutritious and economical food
buys, and are attempting to avoid
government subsidies which only
mean more tax dollars.
Take advantage of this oppor
tunity and serve beef stew often.
Your family and your budget
will both benefit.

drive installation will be offered
for the first time. Engine speed
reduction of more than 20% is ac
complished by the overdrive which
automatically cuts in when the
foot is lifted off the accelerator
above 31 miles an hour.
8 More electrical power. A 12
volt electrical system will furnish
ample reserve power for the ever
growing demands of accessories.
The system is standard on both
sixes and V8s, assuring increased
generator efficiency 'and higher
starting motor speeds. Another
safety feature is a dual circuit
breaker. A short circuit or over
load will as a consequence not en
tirely disable the system.
9. "Dry Air’’ ventilation.
10. Tubeless tires for increased
safety. The casing remains the
same, but instead of an inner tube,
interior surfaces are coated with
a butyl "skin” for sealing. Blow
outs are resisted and deflation
slower with punctures.
11. Smoother power application.
The torque tube drive is replaced
by a hotchkiss drive to deliver
power more smoothly to the rear
wheels and to provide a ‘‘flatter’’
ride in combination with the long
er springs. According to engineers
the "work out” of a new axle,
springs and drive line, together
with new engine mounts achieve
a velvet-like transmission of pow
er.
12. Easier steering. Power steer
ing, an improved version of which
is available on 1955 cars.
Most distinguishing mark of the
new' Chevrolet bodies is their low
slung silhouette and vertical wind
shield poilars. Broad, flat hood
and trunk lids are approximately
three and one half inches lower
than last year while the high,
straight crown of the fenders en
hances an impression of fleetness
and agility. The design gives the
cars the appearance of much great
er length although wheelbases re
main unchanged.
Even more appealing colors than
the brilliant array of 1954 ar.e
available. Of 14 solid color op
tions, ten are new. A1121 of the
two-tone paint combinations are
new except one. An interesting
sidelight is a special two-toning
option on Bel Air convertibles and
sport coupes which extends the
top color onto the rear deck and
quarter panels.
A result of years of research
and hundreds of thousands of miles
of severe testing, the valve-in-head
V8 carries a compression ratio of
8 to 1 and a displacement of 256
inches. The engine is exceedingly
compact with a bore of 3.75 and a
stroke of 3 inches.
Although Chevrolet has had VSs
under experiment since it tried out
this design in 1917-19, the “Turbo
Fire V8” entails basic re-design in
the last three years. Engineers
sought the compactness of a short
crankshaft with the power of large
displacement.
The bore is said to be unusually
large for an engine of the “Turbo
Fire VS’s” length. The combina
tion chamber is wedge-shaped to
provide virtual total combustion
of fuel fed by double-throated car
buretor.
Anderson to Leave
Alaska Mental Health
Dr. Charles Anderson, chief of
the Alaska Department of Health
mental section since its inception
in 1952, has been appointed to a
full professorship in one of the
nation's leading colleges, according
to Dr. C. Earl Albrecht, commiss
ioner of health.
He said that Dr. Anderson plans
to continue his work with the He
alth department until June, 1955,
when he will leave to assume his
new position as professor of psy
chiatry at the College of Medical
Evangelists in Los Angeles.
“The Health department’s mental
health work was pioneered under
the direction of Dr. Anderson, who
has developed a well-rounded pro
gram and made a fine contribution
to public health work in Alaska,”
Dr. Albrecht said.
He listed as part of the work of
£he program mental health clinics
held at Anchorage, Seward, Fair
banks, Juneau and Ketchikan, on
regular or periodic schedules, as
well as individual patients attended
from many other communities of
Alaska.
“It is planned to continue this
important mental health program,”
Dr. Albrecht said, "and recruiting
of a competent psychiatrist to suc
ceed Dr. Anderson bas already
begun.”

COMMUNITY IMPROVEMNET8
Jack Jeffrey told the group that
on his recent return from the
States he got his first good look
at Seward and thought that the
comparison could be made with the
poem “If we could see ourselves
as others see us”. He had reached
the conclusion that the area could
use a few more trees, lawns and
flower gardens if it was to mea
sure up to towns of similar size
in the States.
Acting on Jack’s recommenda
tion it was decided to look into a
program of Community improve
ment and start off with a Christ
mas decoration’s contest. J
A committee of five was appoint
ed by the President and they are
Jack White, Merle Trevethan, Jack
Jeffrey, William Bonser and Andy
Anderson.
