Show MILLARD COUNTY CHRONICLE Delta, Utah, Thurs., July 24, 1952 Mrs. Drue Kobeils, wlio recently received national publicity by press arid radio, when she won a national prize of a new car, $200 worth of groceries, 1000 gals of gasoline and a year's supply of Camay, Oxydoi ajid Drel'i, una then topped it off by winning the giund prize of $5000, left Delta Thursday for Hollywood where she will attend a national contesteis convention. She will accompany a group of others who belong to the national contest club, from Salt Lake and Ogden. They will travel by chartered bus, and be in Holly-wood July 24, 25, and 26, for con-vention sessions. THE HIDEBOUND PARTY nomination of a presi-dential candidate Senator Hooey Balderdash. The convention culmi-nated with all delegates disqualified and ballots cart by the janitors at convention hall. But it wasn't a clean nomination the Balderdash machine stole the Texas janitors. So conservative is the party it considers Alben Barkley too young to be president. Hidebounders have southern blocs within southern blocs. Any place south of any place is in revolt. Southbounders are always bolting and bumping into worse bounders farther south. Unity slogan: "East-boun- Westbound, Northbound, Southbound we're all bound to-gether, Hidebound forever!" The Sidesplitters, radical branch of the party, want the non-vot- to decide elections, because most peo-ple don't vote and majority should rule. EACH DELEGATE was a fa-vorite son brought his mother. Gallantry demanded ladies be seat-ed first, taking all the chairs and leaving the delegates unseated and disqualified. Each delegate was a candidate with a contested delega-tion from each state supporting him. Soon the body of delegates grew to stupendous numbers, over-flowing the midwest, eating even the foliage like locusts. Older heads warned the party not to depredate the country until the party gained office, but it couldn't wait to swarm. The platform demanded a administra-tion with big business control of government by a government-controlle- d big business. This plank was inserted to blind the opposition or any upstart voter who might study it too intently. It enables to call espousers of any philosophy "you-too- " candidates. HIDEBOUNDERS are They declare that Amer-ica, bulwarked by the forces of our allies from all foreign free nations, will sweep from the earth every government, religion and culture not strictly American, until we stand alone. Alien nations must un-derstand that they must do their part .in this sacred enterprise with-out our squandering any money upon them.

Last week, this column made a rather exhaustive inquiry into the question of just what is the ideal sportsmans' car, and came up with the conclusion that a cheap pick-up meets all requirements best. That, however, was last week, and since then Don Bird has blos-somed out with a car, which, for the sporting man, puts even a pick-u- p in the shade. Don's latest car is a 1924 Cadillac. It is much in evidence around and about Del-ta these days, and it stands head and shoulders above other oars. They say the life span of a Cad-illac has never been accurately measured, and certainly this one's hasn't because at the ripe old age of 28 it is still running. .Don him-self first saw the light of day in 1929, so the old Cad it five years the senior of its youthful owner. The car is not entirely new to Delta. It was owned by the late B. E. Cooper, former Delta hotel rpan, who used to meet all the trains with it, regular as the Toon-ervil- le trolley. Curt Johnson, Hotel elevator boy who now lives in Lynndyl may recall doing a little romancing in it in the dear dead days of yore. The late Mr. Cooper is known to have made pointed remarks about Mr. Johnson's love making endeavors, but being a genial fellow he never actually forbade Curt to use the car for that purpose. The past few years the big green V-- 8 has been in the tender oare of the "nervous brothers", Clarence and Henry Nevius. They just gave it a good overwhelming and now Don looks forward to many years of useful service. From the sporting standpoint, it has everything. High clearance, plenty of headroom - - in fact everything specified for last week's sports car, and in addition it is proving that it can pull a boat. Whether it can stand a dunk ing in the reservoir as well as a De Soto is something we cannot know, yet. There's room not only for two to sleep in the back, but they could move in a four poster bed to do their sleeping in, com-plete with canopy, the oar is so spacious. Saturday night, as I was stand-ing on the street corner, lonely, wondering what to do next, Don drove up in it with Tex and Archie Searle, and they invited me to go along for a ride. .Not only that but they let me drive. Brother, what a car." If you think modern airs have visibility, just drive that one. It brought back old memories. Its ancestry traces right back to that great early auto man, H. M. Leland, who launched both the Lincoln and the Cadillac as 's and then, like many great invent-ors failed to cash in for himself. It brought back memories, too, of our streets and highways when the high, square windowed sedans were the last word in swank. And it rides well by any standard. It's a high-slun- g sweet chariot, and, one might, add, it is well hung too, being set upon five semi-ellipt-springs, two in front and three behind. You have to take two high steps to get in, but once in you can look right over other cars. And it points up a contention I have long been maintaining, that today's cars aren't so much better than yesterday's after all, and in some ways not as good. All the changes since 1924 have not been improve-ments. GOOD OLD HORN ... For a little while last Saturday night I thought I was actually liv-ing in the again. It was while driving Don Bird's Cad-illac up Main St. I drove it slowly up the street, honking the horn at intervals to attract as much attention as pos-sible. The car has a. genuine old Klaxon, the auto horn No other horn ever sounded the call of the open road like a Klaxon. Well, you'd have thought every car on the street had a Klaxon that night. Grant Memmott heard it and honked back, and of all things, his Mercury has a Klaxon, too. Then Archie Searle honked his model A - - another Klaxon. It was as if the old Cad was sounding an automotive mating call and all the other Klaxons were responding. RACE NOTE . . . The annual powder puff derby from Santa Ania Calif., to Teter-boroug- N.J. was duly run and won, with Doris Eckart, of Elko, the winner. The first plane to land was flown by Isabel McCrae, of Lemon Grove, and Betty Mc Niel, of La Mesa, Calif. However, pla-nes were handicapped and placed not according to landing order, but by take off order and handi-cap. Incidentally, the change in hand icap rules, which were designed to eliminate what some thought an advantage for the small ships, seemed to not make much differ-ence. The Cessna's placed first and held several near-fir- st honors as usual. MUSICAL NOTE ... J. S. Marriott, CAA administrat-or, has issued another special re-quest that flyers avoid the Holly-wood Bowl during concert hours again this season. The hours are between 8 and 11 p. m. and the dates from July 15 to Sept. 6. Hab-itues of the Hollywood Bowl just don't appreciate having airplanes drown out the sheer beauty of Heifetz cadenzas and the like. i Mrs. Reed Walker, and four dau- - ghters, from Bloomington, Calif., arrived in Delta Sunday and join-ed Mr. Walker here. They will spend the summer here, while Mr. Walker cares tor his bees. l! A"N riIITHI$ CAMERA FROMSJ SERVICE DRUG CO. RAOS? YOUR PITCHER' 60IN';T0 LOOK SWEU WHEN THEY DEVELOP AND PRINT IT .'
