Wells Home Scene of Dinner Marking
Dual Observance Birthday, Anniversary
The home of Mr. and Mrs.
J. R. Wells formed the appro
priate setting on Sunday, for
a delightful covered dish din
ner in their honor, at which
their children were hosts. The
occasion held dual significance
in that it not only marked the
88th birthday of Mr. Wells, but
was also inspired by the Wells’
recent 62nd wedding anniver
sary.
A mass arrangement of mauve
dahlias was used to advantage
as the living room’s floral point
of interest. Permanent Easter
lilies formed the piano's ar
rangement.
The white overlaid table
featured the white embossed
birthday cake, embellished
with spun sugar roses.
At the conclusion of the de
licious dinner, Mrs. Wells, who
wore a black sheer dress, com-

high precise steps and whip
turns, touched off by a back

Millions of years ago nature fash
ioned a proving ground for trucks
that man can never duplicate. Today
it is known as the Baja (bah' hah)
California Peninsula, Mexico.
These pictures give you only a bare
idea of the place. The road bears no
resemblance to the modem highway:
on the Mexican mainland. It’s fine foi
140 miles below the U.S. border. Thei
the beating begins. Rocks and hard
baked ruts bang, punch, j'ab and jer"
the trucks from stem to stern. Loos
sand makes them struggle and strain.
Dust chokes them. Heat roasts them.
Rivers drench them.
The Baja Run took this Chevrolet
caravan 17 days to go the 1,066 miles.
All the trucks performed magnifi
cently. Not one was forced to drop out
because of mechanical difficulty.
Trucks that can take this kind of beat
ing can take on your toughest truck
jobs. Come in now and see tough
quality-built ’63 Chevrolet trucks
with all their new improvements.
