In the most realistic test of all-around gasoline economy ever staged the NASCAR sanctioned 1961 Pure Oil Econ omy Trials at Daytona Rambler won three trophies, held by driver Les Viland in the photo above. No other make won more than one award . . . most won none. Unlike other runs that put a premium on feather-footed driving, the Pure Oil Economy Trials closely parallel your own everyday driving experience. Every U.S.-built production car is eligi ble. None are arbitrarily barred, as in some runs. In 1961, 145 cars representing all 5 U.S. makers competed. Rambler American Custom with over drive beat them all to win the cherished Overall Winner Trophy and captured the Class 6 trophy in competition with Falcon, Corvair, Lark and Tempest 4. In fact, it took the first 6 places and 8 of the first 10. And Ambassador V-8 by Rambler won its Class, swept the first 8 places and 9 of the first 10 spots. With speeds up to 65, and averaging more than 40 M.P.H., the winning Ram bler American made 14 complete stops, shifted through the gears 15 times while circling the 3.7 mile course, and still averaged 26.86 miles per gallon! This is the second straight year Rambler won the Pure Oil Economy Trials. Want more proof of Rambler value? Then see your Rambler dealer. You'll find top gas economy is just part of your sav ings. Rambler costs less to buy. is voted most trouble-free by owners, has top re sale value. Rambler dealers sell twice as many com pact cars per dealer as most other dealer groups. So, you get a better deal ... on the best of the compacts. Rambler world standard of compact car excellence. SEE YOUR RAMBLER DEALER Drive the Recognized Economy King!

Grandma has just re ceived a newsy, question-filled letter from her grandchildren. She's delighted and anxious to hear their voices but she just can't bear to pick up the phone and call. You really couldn't blame her. Thirty five years ago, a Long Distance call took a generous bite out of the family budget, and a few nibbles out of the nervous system too. For example, if Granny wanted to call person-to-person to Philadelphia, it would cost her nearly $20 for 3 minutes or about 2$ a second! Then, while she shouted to make herself heard and won dered what to say next, the other half of her mind was thinking: "Goodness gracious time's up what have I done?" Happily, this kind of nonsense went out with Hitching Old Dobbin to the Shay. To day, talk is cheap and calling Long Distance is easy. Person -to -person to Philadelphia is $3 plus tax, and only $1.75 plus tax for station-to-station during the otT-hours. Modern grandmothers know how won derful it is to call their grandchildren often. Today's rates make Long Distance just a convenient way to have a family reunion. If you haven't called Long Distance in the last thirty-five years, you're in for a surprise. Now it takes 66 seconds or less to reach anywhere in the U.S. There's no need to shout (or even talk loud). It's less expensive than you think, and you'll get more than your money's worth. Why don't you call your grandchildren or someone else's right now? LONG DISTANCE RATES ARE LOW - Here are some examples: Klamath Falls to Phoenix $1.20 Astoria to Minneapolis 1.40 Portland to Chicago 1 50 Eugene to Ann Arbor 1 65 Medford to Atlanta 1 65 Salem to Washington, D C 1 75 S:atutn-io-slarion rales for the first minutes, after 6 PM and all dav Sun day.
