New Buick Special Introduced New styling throughout,
many engineering improvements and a completely new grille
and bumper design are incorporated in the new Buick Special

Buick Reveals New
Special Model, Smaller Size
Flint, Mich., Aug. 8 Featured by a bumper and radiator grille
design entirely new to the automobile industry, Buick's Special
Series was introduced today with completely new styling and
many engineering innovations.
Long and sleek in appearance, the new Special is three inches
shorter in over-all length on a
wheelbase virtually the same as
its predecessor which went out
of production last December.
The new car retains the same
solid, substantial appearance of
its running mates the Super
and Roadmaster Series with
fundamental characteristics of
Buick design presented in brand
new dress.
Dynaflow, Buick's torque con
verter transmission, is available
as optional equipment.
The new series is presented in
two body styles and three mod
els a six-passenger four-door
sedan, a six-passenger two-door
sedan, and a three - passenger
Elfstrom Firm
Prizewinner
The R. L. Elfstrom company
was announced today as winner
of first prize, $250, in the na
tional window display contest
conducted by the American
Home Laundry Manufacturers'
association as a feature of na
tional home laundry week.
Judging was on the basis of
geographical zones and by types
of retail establishments.
The association, until recently
known as the American Washer
and Ironer Manufacturers' as
sociation, announced at its head
quarters in Chicago that more
than 5.0000 retail display win
dows featuring the slogan, "For
Family Washing, There's No
Place Like Home," were shown
during National Home Laundry
week.
two-door coupe with added util
ity space in addition to ample
luggage room in the compart
ment. High on the list of engineer
ing achievements is the design
of the combined bumper and
grille. Developed by Buick and
offered on the Special for the
first time, this innovation was
accomplished by placing the
vertical bumper grille bars for
ward of the single-piece bumper.
Two bomb - shaped bumper
guards, which also house the
parking lamps, are mounted on
the bumper.
New also are sweeping fen

Silver ton Old Timers Gather
Indoors for Annual Picnic
Silvcrton Karl Haberly was elected president of the Old
Timers Picnic association in the third annual reunion at Legion
hall Sunday, succeeding T. R. Hobart, with assisting officers
for the coming year, Hugh Small as vice president and Dewey
Allen as secretary.
This was the third consecutive
time that the large group had
been "rained in" from the city
park, given the courtesy of the
three rooms of Legion hall.
J. D. Drake was the principal
speaker of the afternoon pro
gram, Miss Kathryn Loe, accor
dianist and W. R. Tomison in
kilties, giving much appreci
ated bagpipe numbers, furnish
ing special musical selections.
Others speaking briefly were
Dan Geiser and Helen Hibbard-
Paget. Harry Riches, Marion
county agriculture agent, was
program chairman. Around 150
attended the early afternoon pic
nic dinner and program.
The speaker, J. D. Drake
grandson of Mr. and Mrs. John
M. Drake, his grandmother's
maiden name was Muster, pi
oneers to the Marion county Sil
verton area, told of the hard
ships of the pioneers and of the
numerous folk of this commu
nity who have made good in the
activities of their country. Drake
specialized in his interesting
talk on the two families, the
Davenports and the Geers and
near relatives.
Among those listed as becom
ing more or less famous who
were born in the Silverton com
munity were Frank Bowres,
cartoonist and news columnist;
Homer Davenport, writer, car
toonist politically and otherwise,
fancier and importer of Arabian
horses and perhaps in more ways
than any other citizen of Silver
ton, claiming the most wide
spread fame; Gov. T. T. Geer;
James Buff, for more than 50
years a school teacher, general
educator, philosopher, famous
mathematician; Dr. L. J. Wolfe,
individualize the Special from a
styling standpoint.
The Buick ventiports, a Buick
development of last year which
has been widely copied, are re
located in the Special and are
ovals rather than circles. They
are mounted in the hood in
stead of in the fenders as on the
Super and Roadmaster series.
Although the car is lower
than its predecessor, Buick engi
neers accomplished this without
sacrificing ground clearance or
head room.
Many changes are incorpo
rated in the interior of the bodv,
most important of which is the
12 inches additional width at
hip level in the rear seat.
