Then-without jerk or lag or lurch or pause-you get action! You get action whether you’re just starting off-or asking for a safety-surge of power out on the highway. There’s nothing like it in pait experience-because there has never been anything like it in an automobile before. This is action that comes from the principle of variable pitch propellers used on modern planes.

Snow or rain is expected tonight and Wednesday and rain may return again Friday or Saturday. However, total precipitation tor the next five days is not expected to average above one-half inch. kA warming trend will follow a slight cold dip Thursday, with temperatures for the five days averaging above normal by three to six degrees. The normal minimum is 25 to 31, and normal maximum, 41-49. | Religious publications in Germany have increased nearly sixfold in total circulation during the past seven years and now rank second only to general newspapers and magazines.

And the amazing fact is—in a 1955 Buick Dynaflow Drive there are 20 little propeller-like blades that also change their pitch, just like the propeller blades of a plane. This is a transmission engineer's dream of heaven. A build-up of momentum as smooth a* flowing oil-and almost as quick as light-

Lively Testifies In Own Defense Directed Verdict Motion Overruled INDIANAPOLIS (INS) —Victor Hale Lively took the stand today and said he remembered nothing of the early hours of July 16 when Dorothy Poore was strangled and stuffed in a dresser drawer. The 25-year-old Beaumont, Texdefendant is charged with firstdegree murder in the death of ‘the Clinton, Ind., girl, whose decomposing body was found by maids nearly three days after the crime. Lively took the stand after Judge Saul I. Rabb overruled the third motion by defense for a directed verdict of not guilty. Earlier, Rabb had overruled two other motions. The third charge concerned murder with intent to rape. The red-haired Texan recited a boiled down version of five confessions entered as evidence. The principal points remained unchanged. He said he arrived in Indianapolis, July 16, and registered at the Kirkwood Hotel after telling a cab driver he wanted a prostitute. He said "Ruth" called apd told him the Kirkwood was "too hot" and that he should move to the Claypool. Lively said when he told “Ruth” his name was "Joseph David Smith" she said: "You'll never get into a hotel with Joe Smith. You better register as ‘Jack O'Shea’.” The defendant said he met "Ruth" with the 18-year-old girl at a grill and they went to Mis room. “Ruth" left later and Lively said the victim took off her blouse, brassiere and jeans. He said she also took off his shirt. Lively said: "I don’t remember nothing else.’’
