school paper.
On graduation from < - High
School at Kodiak, she was business
manager of the senior v*>qr book,
“Channel Light.” She also had the
distinction of serving as president
of her sophomore, junior and
senior high school classes.
Carol has entered wholehearted
ly into the activities of the Long
Beach school. She has become a
member of the Theta Sorority, won
a first prize in a design announce
ment contest, and was introduced
and served as a narrator of some
scenic movies of Alaska, presented
before the student body this week.
The movies were taken by Paul
Stover of the Alaska Road Commis

Miss Tolbert is fervently study
ing business administration with
the hope of some day becoming a
partner in her father’s construc
tion business here in Kodiak. He
is Jay Tolbert, who is a well-known
citizen of Kodiak, having lived
here for 22 years. Tolbert operates
the Shelikof Construction Com
pany.
The Kodiak girl was featured in
a story, complete with pictures, in
the Independent, Independent So
ciety newspaper, Long Beach. She
apparently is giving the students
the lowdown on Alaska and Kodiak
in particular, according to the ar
ticle, dispelling views held of Ko
diak as an Eskimo village and a
town of igloos.
Carol expects to garner enough
of her required subjects for an as
sociate of arts degree in three se
mesters, according to the article,
leaving her fourth semester free
for courses in business machines
which she feels will better equip
her to take her place as bookkeep
er in the construction firm.

When better automobiles are built Bulck will build them
It comes upon the heels of the most successful Buick
in history—and beats it on ever)' score.
In shimmering steel and solid sinew, it’s Buick for
1956-and there’s never been anything like it for pure
automobile.
You get a good hint of what we mean when you take
in its sweep-ahead styling-from the air-splitting
prow of its V-front grille to the robust rake of its canted
rear profile.
You get an even better hint when you open the doors
and see the dazzle there.
But it’s when you put this beauty to the city streets
and the open highways that you learn the best of it.
For here is performance without parallel. A new
advance in Variable Pitch Dynaflow* goes airplanes
one better—steps up your getaway in normal driving
without switching the pitch. But when you do need that
extra surge, it’s there instantly—and in extra abundance.
The might of big 322-cubic-inch V8 engines in every
Series brings new record high power to all Buicks —
Roadmaster, Super, Century, and the bedrock-priced
Special. And to handle such dynamic driving power,
the whole rear end has been endowed with extra brawn
and heft and solidity.
We could spread before you an acre of blueprints
on the engineering gems that spark the spectacular
performance and ride and handling and roadability
of these great Buicks for 1956.
But you can get the full and magnificent story right
now, at our showroom, in a face-to-face meeting with
the best Buick yet —now on display, and setting a
dazzling new pattern for 1956.
*New Advanced Variable Pitch Dynafloiv is the only Dynaflow
Buick builds today. It is standard on Roadmaster, Super and
Century — optional at modest extra cost on the Special.
