feeling OF sumptuousness and luxury
never before attained by any car in its
field. There is great V8 power linked
with new thrift, plus Chevrolet's
superb 6-cylinder engine. 1t is
traditional car that comes even closer
to perfection-in silence, in room, in
ease of control, in velvety ride-than
any other car we have ever made.
The other is the Corvair, compact
car that is astonishingly different from
anything ever built in this country.
1t has to be-because this is a sir
passenger compact car, with really
remarkable performance car
designed specifically to American
standards of comfort, to American
traffic needs.
The engine is in the rear. Among
the basic advantages resulting from
this engine location are better traction
on a compact 108-inch wheelbase and
q practically fat floor. But to be
placed in the rear, the engine had to
be ultra light and ultra short. So
Corvair's engine il totally new
mostly aluminium and air cooled; it
weighs about 40 per cent less than
conventional engines. It is fiat"
horizontally opposed six-so it is only
three cylinders long -. and that
leaves lot more room for passengers.
Another weight saving: like modern
airplanes, the Corvair has no frame;
the body-shell supplies it great struc-

tural strength it's a welded unit
that is virtually rattle-free.
The ride is fantastic. But to get it
we had to design independent sns-
pension at every wheel; conventional
springing would give compact car a
choppy ride. Right now Wen make
one prediction: no other US. compact
car will ride so comfortably, hold the
road so firmly and handle so beautifully.
Now there are two kinds of cars
from Observation-Disclosures it takes two
kinds of cars to serve Americas needs
today. If you love luxury the utmost
in luxury if you want generous
interior space, breath-taking perform
ance, automatic drives and power
assists-then the conventional go
Chevrolet may be your choice.
If easy parking, traffic agility and
utmost economy are high on your list
then YOU should seriously consider
the Corvair. But the best thing to do.
isto'look these two new cars over at
your Chevrolet dealers a. take them
out for q drive. 1t may be that thu
only logical choice for your family
between two cars like this is-both.
They make perfect pair.

full dances, and some Of these /
now pass on to you.
Adults often object to the soft
lights teen-agers like for dancing
- and insist on illumination that
reminds you Of a prison yard =
after a big break.
With little bit of experiment.
ing think you'll find that using
soft blues, a few magentas, and
some amber masks on your lights
viii provide the atmosphere teen
ayers like for dancing and at the
same time give you plenty of light
to keep the dance well-chaperoned.
How loud should records be
played? Here's my rule of thumb:
After you've adjusted the volume
to the point where you think it is
just right - make it a little louder,
and then you've got it.
Triple-check your public address
system and turntable. If you're
like me and want nothing to 60
wrong, have a spare pa. system
and turntable in the wings, lust
in case" Nothing can empty a
dance floor faster than a busted
arnnlifer mr. trrntahlel
To keep young guests happy
stick to the top 100 records listed
in music trade publications, and
skip your own fond favorites.
Now about attire. Girls at all
times should be modestly dressed
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-04-26
Soft lights for dancing teen-agers?

and shouldn't wear shorts, pedal
Pushers or Capri pants unless
the affair is designated as an In
formal one. Boys? Well, coats and
ties, unless unusual climate con-
ditions dictate otherwise. Sorry,
fellows).
A few last, quick pointers:
Choose a clean, well-equipped spot
for your dance, and make sure that
it has enough exits and is plenty
large enough for your crowd.
A "ssar" number
Serve yourrefreshments in paper
cups array from the dance floor.
Keep the couples from clogging the
floor but if a crowd does gather to
watch one couple ''star" during
number - don't rush in to break
it up. They'll break it up them
selves when the music ends.
! could 60 on at greater length
- but there's not room here. So,
Mr.. Fisher, I'm sending you by
mail a more complete code for a
teen-age dance. This, incidentally.
is available to any interested per-
sons or groups, and if any Of you
would like a copy, write me.
