Additional fish which were not counted
were regurgitated by three Of the whales,
Brooks said. whereas the number Of sme1t
in the stomachs Of the belugas taken in
May averaged about 500 per whale, total
Of 95 Smelt and 3 shrimp were found in all
Of the whales taken in the later period
and Is Of those were in the stomach of
one beluga taken on May 81.
From 200 to $50 belugas entered the
Kvichak on each tide while the downstream

IL being beautiful Is only Of minor
help in winning a beauty contest.
Girls are judged on everything from
personality to the way they make
fudge. and the lass picked out is often
more talented than curyaceous. In
keeping with this trend, another way
has been found to give the beauty
angle second billing by picking, in
stead, the typical" girl. That's what
happened recently in Big Bear. Calf,
where dozen teen-agers competed
for the title of Typical Teen of Cali

time done some modelling or been

contestants went about enjoying

rating the girls, judges considered not

scholastic achievement, grooming and
other pertinent factors. Chosen from

the outstanding styling features
that made Buick the third best
selling car in the nation. Our new
styling, plus the spectacular in
crease in performance resulting
from higher compression engines
and our new variable pitch Dyna-
flow, makes the 1855 Buick the
greatest value we have ever offered
the car-buying public"
The panoramic windshield, DiO-
neered by Buick last year, has been
retained for 1855 along with the
sloping dOorbelt line and full rear
wheel cutOut on all twO-doOr
models.
New tubeless tires, which offer
greater protection from blOwouts,
are standard on all models except
those equipped with wire wheels.
Power brakes, offered as optional
equipment on all models, have
been re-designed for smoother
operation. A new air suspension
principle gives fully adequate
braking under all conditions.
Improved power steering is
standard equipment on the Road
master and Super, and optional on
all other models. Previously power
steering was standard on the
Rpadmaster only.
Bucks distinctive front end
styling for 1855 consists of a new,
wide-screen grille with honeycomb
design, visOred headlights and a
new and larger bumper. The hood
has been lowered for greater visi-
bility.
The new, lOng-fOwing rear fen
ders, which are tapered slightly to-
give the illusion of greater length
TO the trunk compartment, blend
into a smart chrome bezel which
houses the tail and back-up lights
in a single assembly. Newly de-
signed wheel covers, decorated in
the center with the word BUICK

ground, lend a further touch of
beauty TO the overall appearance
of the new Buick styling.
mark, have been restyled with
four on the Roadmaster, Super and
Century Series, which are powered
by the 236 horsepower engine. and
three on the Special. Previously
four ventipOrts were reserved for
the Roadmaster only.
The improved performance of
the 1856 Bucks is attributed to the
combination of the new variable
pitch Dynafow transmission and
the more powerful VS. engines
with their higher compression ra-
tiOs
The new DynaflOw offers the
driver greater cruising economy
nlus additional performance when
he desires it. This is accomplished
by the two different settings of
the DynafiOw stator vanes. One
angle is for maximum economy
while cruising. The other is for
performance.
For all normal driving variable
Mitch Dvnafiow operates on the
same principle as last years trans
mission. When additional perform
ance is desired, the driver merely
presses the acceleratOr all the way
to the floor This changes the
angle of the blades in the Dyna-
flow stator, permitting the engine
to operate in it's peak performance
range.
The response is an instantaneous
surge of power that cuts precious
moments off the time it takes to
get around another car on the
highway, and reduces the time the
driver is exposed to OncOming traf-

though your earnings do not continue - you

Under the WHITE CROSS PLAN, it is
easy to include children in the family's
original plan and also to add children as
they are born. 1t is very wise to do this.
The cost is very little. And the benefits can
be very great. Children need medical care
so often for childhood diseases, tonsil and
adenoid operations, and what-not. Hospital
room and meals cost just as much for child
as for an adult, you know. So do X-rays,

PLAN, you can get from

room and meals each time someone in your
family goes to the hospital. This is not
yearly allowance but rather the amount
which is allowed for each different sickness
or accident to each different member of your
family. Needless to say, in case of family
accident this could add up to very large
sum >. a sum which no ordinary family
could pay out of its own savings.
And, remember, one person in every 2
families will need hospital care this year.
