Dairymen find it more profitable to do business
with Superior Cheese Company. Superior’s
method of direct distribution to 7 50 super
markets up and dow n the Coast enables them
to pay top prices for their milk. In order to
insure a steady supply to meet their sales de
mands, Superior maintains this policy: they
always pay current—or higher prices—and they
pay weekly. If you are seeking a profitable
year-round market for your milk, we would be
interested in talking to you.

HONORED AT DINNER—T he 14 Oregon High School stu d en ts w ho won the Odd F ellow s-R eb ek ah

r—
Ahis one you’ll just have to see.
It’s a beauty. It’s a brand-new kind of car. It’s
a Buick Riviera with /oar doors. And to top it
all — it’s a SPBCIAL — the lowest-priced of all
Buick Series.
K now what that means?
It means you can have the newest hit in hardtops
—the most advanced new body design yet—and
you can have it in the price range of America’s
smaller cars.
It means you can have a steel-roofed car with the
long, low, sweeping sportiness of a convertible
—with no center posts in the side w indow areas
— and with two separate doors to the rear.
And you can have all this hardtop beauty with
sedan comfort and convenience at the easy-to-
take modest extra cost of a 4-door model over a
2-door model.
B ut if you think that’s all —listen:
So here you have the soft, firm steadiness of
B uick’s all-coil-spring ride and torque-tube
stability. Here you have Buick brawn, Buick
solidity, Buick handling ease, Buick styling and
visibility and interior luxury.
And here you have the lift and life of vigorous
new V8 power of record might—and coupled to
the spectacular performance of Buick’s Variable
Pitch Dynaflow.*
W h y wait a day longer—when you can come in
right now and try the first true hardtop with the
extra comfort, room and convenience of a full-
sized 4-door sedan?
Drop in tomoirow, first thing —for a look at the
price, and an idea of the whopping-big trade-in
deal our huge sales volume permits us to make.
