List Prices On
1855 POntiacS

List prices on the new 1855 Pom.
tiacs were announced today by r
M. Critchfield, Vice President ot
General Motors and General Man.
ager Of the Pontiac Division.
The list prices were lowered on
the two Catalina models and raised
moderately on other models.
On the two Catalina models. a.
,vailable in the Star Chief and SIC
series, which are expected to repre-
sent 40ao of total production, list
prices were reduced $51.OO. Prices
on the completely redesigned sta
tlOn wagon were increased $24.O
All other models which also fea-
ture the 1S0 horsepower Strato-
Streak VS. engine and panoramic
styling were increased $500.
In addition Mr.. Critchfeld an
nOunced that POntiac's power steer
ing, which was reduced in price by
$4,000 last year, will be cut an ad-
ditiOnal S25.0O on 1856 models for a
new low price Of $4,000. All other
accessories remain approximately
the same.
All prices announced today by
Pontiac include the new General
Motors freight and price adjust
ments which were announced Tues
day. For Pontiac the maximum
charge for freight in areas 1900
miles or more from Pontiac will
average $4,000, a substantial re-
ductiOn in some areas over previous
freight charges. This, OF course, will
result in additional savings to many
customers in those distant areas.
''The 109 new features built into
the 1865 models represent Pontiac s
long established policy of building
greater dollar value into every new
car while maintaining prices well
within the reach of the American
buying public, Mr.. Critchfield said.

WET HEAT

SALT LAKE CITY up -
When they turn water into their
new industrial heaters, two inven-
tors here have trouble convincing
people they are not trying to burn
the water. They superheat steam
in white-hOt tubes and use it to
atomize oil which is the real fuel.
George W. Jackson and Bill g.
Daugherty say their method gets
more heat out of the oil. They
have produced a number of the big
heaters and hope to develop one
small enough to heat an ordinary
home.
Big trouble is, things get so hot
in their burners that metals usu-
ally put into furnaces won't stand
up. For the small heaters thev
plan to use metals which have been
developed for jet engines.

Harrington, Shut BY Weather,
Hints New ActiOn for Dates

Harrington Raceway, site Of the
Kent and Sussex Racing Associa-
tton's harness races, has given
way to the elements and a request
Of horse owners and cancelled the
remaining two nights of its sched-
uled S0-night meet.
7. Brinton Holloway, general
manager of the track, made the
announcement Wednesday night
after inclement weather had fore
ed pOstponement for a second sue
cessive night.
Plagued by rain and cold wea-
ther and the lingering effects of
Hurricane Hazel. which brought a
severe drop in the tracks atten-
dance and mutuel handle, track
officials and horse owners met and
decided to bring the meet to a
close.
Wednesday nights pOstpOnement
was the seventh of the meet. which
opened September 25th and was TO
have closed last night.
Commenting on the unfavorable
racing conditions, Holloway said
the track would request earlier
dates next year. preferably the first
part of September, but added, "Its
doubtful that Wen ever get them. f"
Brandywine Raceway, the pros
porous harness plant in New Cas-
tie County, was allotted the earlier
oates this year and is expected to
again draw the same dates next
season.
Spiking rumors that the track
might transfer its racing dates to
Brandywine next year, Holloway
said: Il don't know how the rumor
got started, but don't think there's
anything to it.

be some new legislative bills Dre-
sented pertaining to racing.
People in the northern end Of
the state seem to think Delaware
ends at the canal. / think thev'll
find out differently"
Holloway said that the Harring-
ton officials will meet tonight to
discuss quarter-million dollar
Improvement program at the Fair
grounds.
I feel reasonably certain that
there will be racing here again
next year" Holloway said, explain
ing that under the present law.
each county New Castle, Kent, and
sussex has 90 allotted racing dates.
and that Sussex, with no place to
race, transferred 10 of its nights
to Brandywine and 10 to Harring-
ton.
Final figures released Thursday
by Holloway show Harrington to
have handled S1,704,925 for the 28
nights, a drop Of IA per cent from
the $7O,500 average for 20 nights
last season. The tracks paid at
tendance was 1898, an average Of
LAP per night. This figures does
not include the horseman and other
authorized nOn-paying people who
often were included in daily at
tendance figures.
The states share of the Harring
ton mutuel handle was 31s per cent,
S59,672.29, while a 10 cent charge
on each 50-cent admission netted
the states another $3,197.30.

Mr. Warburton said, "This is one

Mr.. Smith, issued this statement:
Il want to take this opportunity
