The Pacific Northwest section of the American Society of Ranch Management will sponsor the camp. "This is the only section of the Range Society in the United States holding such a camp," John Clouston, section president reported. "The camp seems to wake up the boys, make them curious about plant life around them, and that, of course, means that they will have more interest in such things all the rest of their lives." Each boy found eligible to at tend will receive a $25 scholar ship for transportation, meals and other expenses. The society has named county representatives to assist in raising scholarship money and chosing boys to at tend camp. Jackman is chairman of the camp planning committee.

If : iST Afo pillar or posrs. i A for this wid&'pp&n beauty ft tie new tindoftetdtop- The 4-Door RMora I THERE seems to be ome confusion about what a hardtop really is, and we'd like to set the matter straight. A hardtop is a car that looks like a Convert ible with the top up -but has a solid steel roof overhead -and no center posts in the side window areas. Up until just recently, it could be built in volume only with two doors -not more because it would take wholly new struc tural principles to hinge another set of doors without floor-to-roof center posts. But Buick came up with those new struc tural principles and is now building-in volume - hardtops with four doors. ,ysiiP.''.;w.iii ' irTi 1 1 r inn n tfunwu i. You see one pictured here. It's the 4-Door Riviera. And it's taking the country by storm ... Because here, at long last, is an automobile with the sleek and sporty styling of a true hardtop-but with separate doors for rear seat Passengers, plus the added room of a full size Buick Sedan. On top of that, this beauty is all Buick -with the buoyant ride of Buick's all-coil springing-the walloping might of Buick's record-high V8 power the whip -quick getaway and sizable gas savings of Buick's spectacular Variable Pitch Dynaflow. And it's available in Buick's two lowest priced Scries the budget-tagged 188-hp Si'KClAL, and the high-performance 236-hp Century, illustrated here. Come visit us for a first-hand meeting with the 4-Door Riviera-and see how quickly and how easily the last word in automobiles can be yours.
