HALLOWE'EN DANCE FOR
AMBULANCE
This town needs a new ambu
lance so badly that it is pitiful.
The small group operating the
present vehicle finds it prac
tically impossible to keep it to
gether long enough to stay on
the road. In spite of that they
are doing a most commendable
job.
Townspeople will be given a
chance to help the cause by at
tending or at least buying tickets
for the Hallowe'en Dance Oc

You’re “sitting pretty”
behind the wheel
Take this Bel Air model. First
thing you'll notice is the qual
ity of the interior. Rich-looking
appointments. Roomy seats
with foam rubber cushions.
Turn the key to start the en
gine and you're ready to go.
You can see all around
You look out and down
through a wide, curved, one
piece windshield. The pano
ramic rear window and big
side windows provide a clear
view in all directions.
And it’s the
lowest-priced line
A demonstration will show you
that Chevrolet offers just about
everything you could want. Yet
it’s the lowest-priced line in the
low price field.

An easy nudge on the pedal
brings smooth, positive response
-right now! Chevrolet’s im
proved brakes are the largest
in the low-price field.
I figure this

many hundreds of dollars!
I expected to pay that much more
for a new car until I discovered [

You get greater getaway
with the new Powerglide*
A lot finer performance on a
lot less gas. That's what you
get with the new Powerglide
automatic transmission. There's
no more advanced automatic
transmission at any price.
You get more power
on less gas
That’s because Chevrolet's two
great valve-in-head engines are
high-compression engines. In
Powerglide* models, you get
the most powerful engine in
Chevrolet’s field — the new
115-h.p. “Blue-Flame.” Gear
shift models offer the advanced
108-h.p “Thrift-King” engine.
It’s heavier for
better roadability
You’re in for a pleasant sur
prise at the smooth, steady,
big-car ride of this new Chev
rolet. One reason is that, model
for model, Chevrolet will weigh
up to 200 pounds more than
the other low-priced cars.
*Combination of Powerglide auto
matic transmission and 115-h.p.
“Blue-Flame” engine optional on
"Two-Ten" and Bel Air models at
extra cost.
