The hottest-selling Buick In history is wowing
the West and how the West loves it!
Take a look at the new-car registration
figures shown here and you'll ge" the story
plenty quick. Buick's the No. 3 best seller
and stepping ahead of the rest of the pack
faster and farther every week.
Why? Buick's bedrock value, of course. And
that bold, fresh styling of 2-Door and 4-Poor
Rivieras. And Buick's great room and ride and
power. And the sizzling action of Buick's spec
tacular Variable Pitch Dynaflow.

Blacksmith Turns Violin
Maker After Retirement
- Cadiz, O. '(U.R) Hobbyists of
retirement age have a champion
in John Rumcheck, 70, a black
smith turned violin-maker.
Rumcheck spent most of his
life as a coal mine blacksmith,
but with retirement came a new
hobby and business. He returned
to a boyhood love for violins
and started making them by
hand.
Rumcheck recalls an early ac
quaintance with the famed Fritz
Kreisler. Both were boys in the
same Austrian town. Kreisler
went on to great heights as a
musician, but Rumcheck had to
forget his musical ambitions be
cause of economic difficulties.
"I'm too old for a music ca
reer," he told friends. "But, I
will be able to follow music as
a hobby and keep busy."
