Here's Answer Emblazoned In Magnificent Tribute By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) The Red Cross is something the average man takes on faith, just as he does mother love or the wings of an airplane in which he flies. -itIoc. v, ia invnlvpfl in a creneral calamity, he may never see at first hand what the organization does. But he trusts the goals to which it is pledged. Just what is the Red Cross? One of the most beautiful def initions was penned long ago by the late James A. Mills, famous Associated Press foreign corres pondent. Jim Mills, who died ten years ago this month, roved five contin ents in quest of news and was once tnlrt hv Mahetma Ghandi, "When I work for the good of mankind led him to write the following tribute to it: "I am the Red Cross.

We're willing to vvnger that not one person in a hundred knows what really goes on Inside nn automohile engine-so let's take this by easy stages. The instant you nudge Buick's Fireball 8 Engine into action -a whole strim' of ,uings starts to happen. Eight sparks begin to crackle in well-timed sequence. Eight pistons start gliding up and down with rhythmic precision. Eight pairs of valves dance open and closed to let fuel charges in, exhaust gases out of cylinder after cylinder. A. II right, you say, what's so complex about that? Can't anyone build an engine that does this to perfection? Well, we'd better add, these lungs happen at the rate of more than 10,000 times per mile and that's 100 times per second at 35 miles an hour! So - it's important to know that Buick uses a deep-breathing valve-in-head design that shoots a fuel charge in - cleans exhaust gases out in a hurry. It's important to know that all the power released by the fuel concentrates its driving force right on the head of each Buick piston. (Everyone who has recently built "new" high compression engines copied this "Buick first.") But most important of all - Buick adds one more twist which others still haven't copied. Every charge of fuel rushing into a Buick engine becomes a twisting, swirling, high compressed ball that flashes with sudden, con suming completeness the instant the spark sets it afire. And to add this all up: clean, complete com-Uistion-10,000 times per mile-is the secret of getting more power more miles-from each gallon of gasoline. So we're not simply using picture words when we tell you that Buick and only Buick has a Fireball Engine or that you're off in a swirl of power with one of these high-powered performers under the hood. 1952 has brought a lot of sparkling new improvements which you'll want to see and admire when you come to our showrooms. But the thrill of thrills is still what you and a Buick and a Fireball 8 Engine can do out on the road.
