Both lines embody an improvement destined to rank as outstanding in the indus try this year the revolutionary new "Tlptoe-matlc" clutch combining more positive action with greater operating ease, and adding importantly import-antly to the safety, comfort, and durability of the car. The 1938 line, Chevrolet engineers assert, represents important advances ad-vances over even the highly successful success-ful 1937 models. Refinements extend ex-tend to bodies, both interiors and exteriors, and to numerous units of the chassis, whose design, however, remains fundamentally unchanged. The power plant in both series is the 85-horsepower high-compression valve-in-head six-cylinder engine whose power, smoothness, economy, and freedom from service interruptions interrup-tions are already familiSr to mil-Itorcs mil-Itorcs of "awners throughout ""titoe" worlct - - " 'WrmdaeTtf hfc'Ve" Chevrolet's " perfected per-fected hydraulic brakes, all-silent, all-steel turret top bodies by Fisher, and the trouble-free hypoid rear axle. On the Master DeLuxe series, Chevrolet fully-enclosed knee action ac-tion is starting its fifth year. Outwardly, the most notable change in the new Chevrolets is their advanced styling, which is especially evident at the front end. The top of the hood sweeps forward for-ward from the cowl in a graceful curve, to cap the almost vertical flat-topped radiator and grille. The latter, a radical improvement over (previous design, consists of chrom ium-plated horizontal bars, flowing back from the center line of the grille to blend into the radiator shenT , , Accentuating .. these lines, every Tifth bar is a double width, pin striped down the center with vermilion enamel. The new Chevrolet Chev-rolet emblem, in cream letters on blue, embossed in a die-cast winged shield, is centered at the top. The speedline which introduced a new sytle note is continued in 1938 Other important changes extend to louvers, headlamps and their mountings, hood side panels, running run-ning boards, and body hardware, interior in-terior and exterior. Outside door handles are incurved at their ends for greater safety, and embody the vermilion enameled pin stripe found on the grille. The overall effect of the many refinements in the hood and body is one of greater length and racier,' more graceful lines an impression of fleetness which is confirmed when one takes to the road. Engine advances for 1938 are mainly in the nature of refinements, although a new and lighter flywheel. fly-wheel. In conjunction with the new clutch, affords greater flexibility and quicker response to the controls, and valve-springs, valves, and certain portions of the cooling system have been re-designed rather than simply simp-ly refined. There Is faster transfer of heat from the combustion chambers, cham-bers, especially in the vicinity of the valves, in spite of the fact that the cooling system In 1937 was outstanding outstand-ing for efficiency. The most notable change in the power plant and its related units is the electrical system, which is entirely en-tirely new. It consists of a new higher-capacity generator with voltage volt-age regulator which adjusts its output out-put at all times to the load imposed on the battery; a new starting mechanism of the type furnished on costlier General Motors cars, with over-running clutch and automatic throttle, opening assuring easy, positive po-sitive starts; and a new, weather-tight, weather-tight, and accessible battery cover. Greater body space, and Increased stability on the road, are provided by widening the rear tread from 57 9-18 inches to a full 59 Inches. In conjunction with changes In the wheel house design, this makes possible pos-sible two Inches greater width throueh the rear seat of the car. The i" longer axle drive shafts and housings necessitated by the change are compensatingly sturdier to take care of their added length. The convenience and utility of the trunk models in the new line Is enhanced en-hanced to a marked degree by the greatly-Increased luggage space provided pro-vided this year. The flat shelf under un-der which the spare wheel rested horizontally has'' been removed, giving 6 7-8 Inches greater height, and the compartment floor has been REPUBLICAN TICKET For Mayor JAMES TATTERS ALL For Councilman 4-Year WM.

In fact, the little disks are being "soaked up" so fast that the tax commission found it necessary Saturday Sat-urday to order 4,000,000 more of the one-mill denomination. The original order last June was for 9,000,000 of., .the one and five-mill five-mill tokens.

We are grateful that the period of watchful waiting is now over and that in our great need, kind Drovl- dence raised a man whose foresight and statesmanship have and are now devising measures of relief for our people. We pledge again our undivided support to our fearless leader, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, to his great plan of rehabilitation and to every measure that mav be i advanced for the betterment and welfare of the whole people. We appreciate the fact that the economic and social troubles that are now passed have reduced materially ma-terially the income not only of our citizenry but also of our city. Our problem is therefore, one of self maintenance. Sensing these conditions, condi-tions, we feel the two major problems prob-lems that face our electorate are retrenchment to a point where our needs meet our ability to pay and a real honest effort to seek such relief as will amply care for our needy. WE, THEREFORE, pledge our candidate, If elected, to carefully administer ad-minister the affairs of the city with respect to the collection of the rates and taxes now due in order to overcome over-come the mounting deficit that has accumulated during the past two years. Such a course is absolutely necessary to save the credit and good name of our city. We approve all measures that have been instituted by the Federal government gov-ernment ana state for an Old Age Pension or any form of relief for the unemployed and pledge our candidate can-didate to use every medium possible to secure from any quarter such forms of relief that none of our citizens need suffer. We believe that our city government govern-ment should be so conducted that the best Interest of all the citizenry may be served. The officers elected should seek the best interest of n the people.

Owner and " Manager: " has been busily engaged for some time getting the store set up for the opening. New, modern fixtures are being Installed. Everything will be In readiness Saturday, when the people of this community will have their first opportunity op-portunity to Inspect the extensive lines of merchandise handled by this new store. This merchandise consists, In part, of Automotive Supplies, Sup-plies, featuring Tires and Batteries, Paint, Radios and Household Necessities. Neces-sities. All stores bearing the "Authorized Agency Gamble Stores" sign are owned by the man operating the store. These merchants are in business busi-ness for themselves. The investment invest-ment is theirs they do their own ordering they place their own advertising. ad-vertising. It is their business. Yet the vast resources of Gamble Stores are behind them. A Gamble 8tore Agency sells Gamble's Gam-ble's merchandise at Gamble's regular reg-ular low prices. Thus, even a store In a small town can meet mall order and big city prices, rendering a time and money-saving service. The Agency operator's warehouse (or wholesale House) Is the nearest Gamble Store, which because of Its nearness, practically eliminated delay de-lay and transportation costs. Here he obtains as much merchandise as is necessary to answer the needs of his community. Every item handled in a regular Gamble Store Is available avail-able to the consumer through Gamble Gam-ble Store Agencies. This new Gamble Store Agency Is one of 1580 Gamble Stores and Gamble Gam-ble Store Agencies now operating In the.mlddlewest,-" Mud, that great levcler of football foot-ball teams, coupled with sterling play on the part of Payson high, held the American Fork lads to a 6-8 tie game last Friday at the former's for-mer's field. Payson scored early In the second sec-ond quarter and held the Cavemem scoreless until near the game's end, when Junior Magleby received a punt and behind perfect interference interfer-ence by his teammates raced for a touchdown to tie the game. American Fork twice had the ball Inside Payson's ten-yard line, but were held for downs. Payson was likewise held on one occasion by American Fork.

It's a lot of tokens, and the commission com-mission is wondering what's happening happen-ing to all of them. Some of the guesses are as follows: Tourists have carried many of them out of the state; merchants are accumulating accumu-lating more than they need before redeeming them, people are using them for purposes other than payment pay-ment of sales tax. Marriage Mrs. Louis Blrk announces the marriage of her daughter, Ruth, to Mr. Don Russell Devereauxjon of Mrs. Bertha Devcreaux' of Pleasant Grove.
