Some cars do best on the highway. Others
seem tailor-made for city driving.
Then there’s Corvair—that gets along
just great most anywhere. Swishing along
a highway. Scurrying around in traffic.
Or wading through a soggy trail.
Take highway driving. Corvair’s got a
bigger new engine with horsepower up
nearly 19% in the standard version. But
in case figures don’t impress you, just wait
until you head a Corvair for some far
away places. You’ll get the message.
Take city driving. Corvair’s
trim size, light steering (because
the engine weight’s in the rear)

Bishop John Owen Smith,
head of The Methodist Church
in Georgia, notes it is impera
tive that the church meet the
challenge of the hour. “One can
not be caught napping in such
a world,” he states.
He states that Expansion Day
gives members another oppor
tunity to do something for
people.
“This observance is of long
standing and is quite necessary.
It is a time when each of us
finds joy in going a second mile
in our giving.”

rush-hour driving to parking a cinch.
Take back-road driving. The weight of
Corvair’s engine bearing down on the rear
wheels gives them remarkable gripping
power on most any surface, whether it’s
loose, solid, dry, wet—or even snow covered.
Something else you can take note of,
too; There’s no radiator to overheat or
run dry. No hoses to check or replace. No
need for antifreeze. The engine’s air cooled.
Beginning to sound like a car you can
really warm up to? Then there’s
7 only one thing left to take: a ride
in one at your Chevrolet dealer’s.

To National

Mr. Reid said, “I would like
to speak in support of the Reso

and one with opposing vote.
Over one hundred of your lead
ers are in favor, with four or
five opposed.

Mr. Griffith said. Throughout
Georgia, Veterans Administra
tion benefits amounted to more
than S2OO million last year. This
was a SSO million increase over
1962. The big increase was due
primarily to the VA home
financing program.
“No Veterans Administration
benefit is granted automati
cally; each must be applied for”,
Mr. Griffith said. He advised
veterans and their dependents
of Chattooga County that the
Department of Veterans Service
will assist any citizen in filing
VA claims at no fee. The Chat
tooga County field office is at
204 Rhyne Building, LaFayette.
