Joe Marsh They Travel "In Class" Our high school correspondent says that Economics and Geog raphy students are going in for "grass roots" studying. They're going to charter buses and take off on Operation See-For-Yourself-have a ten-day look at some of the things they've been studying about. As I remember, it was hard to keep your mind on schoolbooks at this time of year. Today's kids can give in to that old urge to bust out of the classroom-with a clear conscience. Wish they'd take me along. From where I sit, it doesn't hurt us adults, either, to get out and see how the rest of the coun try lives. We find the "typical American"doing everything from herding cattle to flying planes . . . with everything: from steak to chowder for his favorite dish . . . everything from beer to butter milk for his favorite beverage. And the more we study our dif ferences the more we learn how alike everyone is underneath. Copyright, 1956, U filled Stales Vrewers Foundation WMMBnUMEM, 3BBSFJBMS WFim EVERY NOW AND THEN, We mil across someone who seems to think that 1956 cars do not offer anything really new -just a little face lifting from the year before. We won't try to speak for the automobile industry. But we certainly can speak for Buick. And let us announce in no uncer tain terms it's the newest thing on wheels. The Styling is New Sure, it looks like a Buick. But it has a new V-prowed grille that says 1936 and no mistake. The hood's new the fender ports are new the sweepspear is new and it all adds up to a new sweep ahead look that ends'in a sassy new slant to the rear contours. But that, friends, is only the beginning. The 1956 Dynaflow is New It introduces what the engineers call "double regeneration"-which means a double action take-off. It gives you new, smwmwm ait .1.1 A STUNNING CARS for ovwy iwwl wjV OAY COLORS for ovtrr r,lon A"- GREAT-BUY PRICES for tvtfy bvagot split-second response in the first inch of pedal travel plus the "switch the pitch" at full acceler ation, which no one else has yet approached. The Ride is New To coil springs on all four wheels, a brawny X-braced frame, and torque-tube drive, the engi neers have added deep-oil shock absorbers to give new softness, new buoyancy, new comfort, and a brand-new "sense of direction" handling response. The Power is New All 1956 Buicks have new 322-cubic-inch V8's-with record highs in power and compression -with unique new double "Y" manifolding to step up efficiency -with new carburetor "deicing" -and a host of other new features to make owning a Buick pure pleasure. The Thrill is New And the surest way for you to find out how right we are, is to sample a 1956 Buick yourself. As we said before, this is the best Buick yet by a wide measure and when you learn the prices we're quoting, you'll know why this Buick is one of the three best sellers in today's market. It takes a lot more than face lift ing to produce such a winner as this. Neu Advanced Variable Pitch Dynaflow is the only Dynaflow Buick builds today. It is standard on Roadmaster, Super and Century -optional at modest extra cost on the Special.
