PAGE EIGHT New Chevrolet Goes On Display THE ENTERPRISE, ALTAMSNTJ H. V- FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19 , 1956 Today (Continued from Page 1) Turboglidc incorporates an unusua hill retarder, one of many new safe- driving improvements on the latest Chevrolets. The retarder aids brak- ing on steep downgrades. With larger glass area, surer traction stronger frames and a re-design o steering wheel and instrument, panei 1o reduce possible injuries on abrupt stops, the cars set new standards of safety. In eye-appeal the 1957 Chevrolet differ strikingly from 1956 models. While two and one-half inches have been added to overall lengths, the horizontal sweep of new styling motif gives (he impression that the cal- l's even longer than its 200 inches. All bodies are lower, with a reduction , of an inch and a half in height of the cowl and substantially increased wind- shield areas. Common to the design of all pass- enger cars is a rugged front end that combines a massive guard and bump er ensemble with an aluminum grill screen and inset parking ' lamps. Lance-shaped windsplits on the hood add a touch of modernity. However most of the duplication in the ap-|,jd pearance between the three series ends here. Chevrolet again offers ex- clusive exteriors and interiors in each of its series. On the seven bodies in the Bel Ail series, for instance, a lean chromium spear extends rearward from I IK headlamp, spreading gracefully downward to the bumper and also branching upward as a rear quartet molding. The area encompassed bv the diverging lines of the spear may be two-toned to conform with the body roof color or fitted with an optional panel of rolled aluminum Two-Ton models, eight in number, i •• * have a single downswopt lance mold-) sa ing from front to rear \ Claisville n MIETHODIST CHURCH ' <cv ',Pted R Brown, pastor. f.f^'October 21st: Ti* 5 a - m.

The Prudential Insurance Company of America has announced a new type policy which is revolutionary in nature. The new policy, known as the \Family Policy,\ covers both present and future members of a family. The one contract provides protection on the life of husband, wife and each child under eighteen years of age. In addition, each child born after the policy is taken out is automatical- ly covered, with no increase in prem- ium payments. Policy limits range from $3,000 to $10,000 of life insur- ance on the husband. Savings in administration costs, re- sulting from issuance and handling of one policy instead of several, are passed on to the applicant, Prudential said, thus providing cheaper and more convenient protection. The premium depends only on the age of the husband. The number of children to be covered does not in- fluence the cost. Each child is in- •sured for $1,000 per unit until age eighteen, and then is allowed to take out a policy up to $5,000 per unit, without medical or other require ments. ftfedu™'n™^ to Ren ss<?laerville and medusa residents is the recent eon MSS\ 1 ,?' \V 0 Re «^-vmo aTd CWntvP! ra ,\ CheS of thD Albany under M^ *& -n'- Amcri ™* Red Cross, Rice if »i Wllllam F ' Rice ' Sr - Mrs one „ a , lst > vice-chairman of zone aar k C s °vine y £ ranch £ s . which include!
