- Pfit‘he Nbws. - o ~ Approximately 32,500,000 miles of demonstration rides will have been given before the end of the national Pontiac Red Rocket Demonstration Campalgn in whichJ. Q. Burger has been participating since April 17. The campaign will conclude on Thursday April 30. . P ‘ ~ The total mileage in this unique application of modern production methods to the demonstration of motor cars, is computed on the following ’,basis‘ ~There are more than 4,000 dealers in the Oakland-Pontiac sales organization. Some of them in the smaller towns are using only one Red Rocket demonstrater. Others are ‘usinng as many as ten or a dozen. But lat the most conservative estimate it is believed that the dealers will average at least 60 miles of demonstration riding per day. This equals approxii{mately 250,000 miles per day or a total ;of three and one-half milliop for the 14 days of the campaign, ~ “The demonstration Pontiacs all strictly stock models are identified by large red rockets painted on their isidu:j. The cars, each with a driver, are stationed in front of all OaklandPontiac salesrooms throughout the United States ready to give informal demnonstrations of Pontiac’s power and flexibility to any individual who wishes a ride. :

“The local as well as the national response has been surprisingly large” said Mr. Burger of the Oakland-Pon-tize sales. Apparently persons who might hestitate to visit a showroom and make a formal request for a demonstration are attracted by the ccmplete informality of the Red Rocket campaign in which they merely step up to the demonstrator and ask the waiting driver for a ride.”

Large Bass Is Caught

The largest small-mouthed bass canight in this vicinity in several years was landed at Lake Nyona near Rochester by L. E. Pryce of Indianapolis. The fish weighed six pounds and seven ounces and was nearly two feet long.

Pryce caught the big fish on a six-teen-ounce test line three years old, with an imitation pork rind shimmy wiggler bait. The big fish was lurking near some lily pads and struck with great.férocity. The battle with the fish covered the entire length of the lake. :

So ferocious was the bass that when Shorty West who rowed Pryce’s boat grasped the fish's jaws when Pryce finally pulled the monster close to the boat the bass snapped viciously and caused blood to spurt from West’s hand. e
