Final Game Tuesday CHICAGO UP Y The Chicago Blafkihawks, faced with the do-or-die proposition of winning the final game of 'the Stanley Cup semifinals against thl Montreal Canadieris, had a new incentive today. The upset win of the Boston Bruins over the National Hockey League winners, the* Detroit Redwings, keyed the-Hawks hopes to a point where they were confident of taking the deciding game from the Canqdiens in Montreal Tuesday night. ‘ \ ' Despite the Hawk enthusiasm the\ odds' favored the canny Canadiebs who stormed back after three' straight losses to’lace;, the Hawks 3-0 Wturday night and tie the series three-all. Part of the heavy feeling for Montreal chances was the natural advantage of a home crowd and playing on home ice. Lakers Even Final Series With Knicks MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.

Ford visibility is Full-Circle Visibility. This means curved unobstructed glass area, front and rear, plus side windows that allow all passengers what the hotels call "room with a view.” Appearance? A higher price, of Course, does not make a cir inore beautiful. Converlsely, beauty in a Ford comes "for free.” Ford hajs' found that it costs no more to develop a beautiful car than one that is less pleasing in appearance. You can drive up to themost exclusive doorways in the world and feel (perfectly at home in your Ford. Fords "belong” . . . in exactly the same polpial category , as the finest, one-of-kind creations. After all, a Ford is a custom creation multiplied. IF/tat about running costs? Here’s one place that Ford’s advantages are obvious. For oil and gas economy Ford has the big cars Ford parts cost less. Ford service charges are less. Ford tire mileage is thousands of miles greater. And, Ford depreciation is the lowest of any car on the market—bar .none. ' If hat Fords mride of? Some people have the idea that the costliesft cars are made of Abetter stuff.” It’s true that some high-priced cays have costlier upholstery and fittings. What Ford has is
