Chevrolet's room, ride and price. When Automotive
News made its annual roominess study, Chevrolet got
the most points. It's roomier inside, they reported, than
any other American car. The ride is Full Coil suspension
smooth. And Chevrolet hardtops and convertibles are
still the lowest priced full-size cars of this kind you can
buy. Chevelle'i quick size. It's quick to climb, quick
to turn. Other mid-size cars might be like Cheveile, true.
But they're not as low priced. And they're not made by
Chevrolet with Body by Fisher, GM-developed' energy
absorbing steering column, inner fenders and Full Coil
suspension. Comoro's road-hugging stance. At its
price, Camaro is the only sportster to give you wide
stance design. It rides steadier, clings to curves better,

Diamond Team
Defeats Condon
By RICK JOHNSTON
The Mustangs made it a
sweep over the Condon baseball
team as thev downed the home
town Blue Devils, 6-3, there on
May 2.
The local nine wasted little
time as Johnston got aboard on
a fielder's choise and stole sec
ond before Jim Doherty lashed
a long double to score Johnston
from second. The Mustangs then
scored two more in the second
as the Blue Devils committed
an error with two outs, giving
the Mustangs life. Heppner con
cluded its scoring with two runs
in the third and one in the
fourth. Condon came up wth
two tallies in the third and one
in the fifth but couldn't quite
slug out a victory over the Mus
tangs. Rob Jackson started on the
mound for the Blue Devils and
needed relief help from Mike
Gronholm in the fifth inning.
Jackson gave up all the Mus
tangs' runs as Gronholm shut
down eight of the nine Mus
tang batters he faced via the
strikeout route. Russell Kilken
ny was on the hill for the Mus
tangs and gave up three runs
on four hits. Kilkenny shut
down nine of the Condon bat
ters on strikes.
Jim Doherty with 2-4 and
Jerry Healy with 1-3 were the
top Mustang performers at the
plate. Ken Humphrey hit the
top ball of the day, with a tow
ering 300-plus double straight
to center. The Condon fielders
committed five bobbles while
the Mustangs committed three.
