TRYING TO BURROW INTO THIRD It looks like Milwaukee Braves' second base
man Danny O'Connell is trying to reach third base on an underground route. He is
tagged out as he slides for the base by the Cards' Bobby Morgan in the fifth inning
in St. Louis. O'Connell attempted to take the base when Catcher Ray Katt momen
tarily let a pitch get by him but recovered in time to throw for the putout. Umpire
Artie Gore is really on top of the play. The Cards won, 6-2.

are changing
Sales and official registra

higher priced cars are

More room?" No, because the differ

in fractions of inches often in Chev
rolet's favor!
Better readability? Not with Chev

Smarter styling? A matter of opin

Fisher Body styling with some of
America's most expensive cars.
So it comes down to this. More and
more buyers are deciding they'd
rather drive a frisky, sweet-handling
Chevrolet even if it didn't cost
less! Wouldn't you?
