BUICK DESIGN
BUICK V ALVE-I N-HE AD POWER
The rightness of the Buick Valve-in lead motor and
not the enthusiasm of its salesmen has made the Buick
conspicuous for leadership.
This new four has a Buick Valve-in-Head motor (with
electric starter) which develops thirty-five horse power
on Drake test and is so reliable for ruggtd service that no
eulogy is necessary among "men who know Buick."
Pa lines are beautiful.. Finish and color are exception
al. Deep, tufted black genuine leather upholstery. Cov
ered floor and running board, with aluminum bindings,
give a trimness of appearance that is peculiarly Buick.
Body, hood, feeders and running gear are painted a
glossy, long-W' .ring black; wheels are black with white
stripes. Tires 31x4 inches.

received a ruBh call, and was driving
down the Cobbs Crossroad, and did
not see the car until it was right on

struck by the moving car, which he
says was "Going Some." His cloth

prevented him from jumping. The
