BONN, July 4 (NANA) West
Germany's big three" automo-
bile producers are rushing auto
nation programs for an "all-out"
invasion Of the American market
In 1858.
More German cars than ever
before are being sold in the
United States this year. Next
year, German motor executives
predict, will 60 down in auto
motive history as the year Euro
pean auto producers carved out
o beachhead in the American
market.
Opel, Ford and Daimler Benz,
the firms rushing attenuation,
will introduce an entirely new
dimension to the bitter American
auto sales rivalry: All will have
the backing of American pro-
ducerS.
General Motors, which owns
Opel outright, will push sales in
the United States Of Opel's
smartly styled Rekord, a $500,
30-miles-per-gallon car. Ford,
which owns 40 per cent Of Ger
man Ford, has the German Ford
Taurus to offer in competition
in America against the Opel
Rekord.
Mercedes, Studebaker Merge
Finally, Studebaker Packard
Is sponsoring the full-range of
Mercedes-Benz quality cars-in-
Guiding the luxury Mercedes 800
and 300-SL, the latter a road
race winning sports car.
This means that the three
German firms will enter the
American sales battle ready to
offer Nationwide repair and
servicing plus sales. Lack of
such widespread dealer repre-
sentation heretofore has been
the main bar to foreign car sales
in the United States.
Automotive 1853 also is likely
to determine, finally, whether
the worlds small-car giant
Volkswagen-has a future in the
American market.
Volkswagen has no American
sponsor; it doesn't need one. The
worlds largest export seller
Volkswagen has been laboring
patiently for three years tc
crack the American market.

WANT TO BE POPULAR?
JUST BE YOURSELF!

Please don't be too frank in ex-
pressing your opinions; do not be
self-conscious when with others;
never lie to save yourself; do not
go to parties because you feel you
have to go. Others can tell wheth-
err you are bored or not.
Don't try to keep up with the
Jones's because it isn't worth IT,
BE yourself and do what you can,
within your budget. You don't
know how nor where the Jones's
get the money to do and live as
they do. And it's absolutely none
of your business, or mine. Why
make your life miserable because
you are not as pretty as your
best friend. She is pretty, but you
can make friends feel" you are
pretty by your nice manners and
disposition.
When friends told you you were
pretty or had lovely curls your
mother would bring you down to
earth right fast by saying pretty
is as pretty does You knew just
what she meant. Yeu were any
thing but pretty when you
pouted because you thought you
should do or go somewhere be-
cause some of the other kids were
going.
Your mother know best, but at
the time you though she was
mean. Now you know she had only
love and your interest in her
heart for you.
She made you popular because
she taught you to treat every
body with respect She said, you
can speak to any one and have a
kind word for even a dog because
you don't know what day or hour
you will be happy to have some
one say or do a kind thing for
you"
When she said popular, she
meant she wanted YOU to be able
to have friends. and the only way
you were going to have friends
was to learn to be friendly, your
self.
