Buyers From Coast to Coast Choose OLDS! Oldsmobile has moved ahead of all competitors in the medium price class in the sale of new cars since the 1958 models were introduced, according to Oldsmobile's general manager and vice president of General Motors, J. F. Wolfram. Mr. Darrell Miller of the Darrell Miller Co. in Medford confirmed the fact that he has been informed by Mr. Wol fram that Oldsmobile is now the leader in the medium price class since the 1958 cars were unveiled. Miller also stated that Oldsmobile out registered any other medium price car in Jackson County throughout 1957. Wolfram added, "Oldsmo bile sales since the introduc tion of the 1958 models in early November have . been higher than during the same period a year ago. In the months of November and De cember, Oldsmobile retail sales increased by 10 per cent over the same period of 1956." COME IN . DA "tossed a hot potato" back in the NL's laps and warned, "we are not going to construct anything on speculation." Earlier, Wagner made the same point when he empha sized that the city "would re quire a firm commitment" be fore actual construction be gan. "We can't build a stadium without a firm commitment," he said. "Our commitment is here. Now it's up to the Na tional league." This was In answer to the National league's recent invi tation to the mayor to appear at its annual meeting in July to discuss whatever progress New York had made toward building a stadium. City offic ials interpreted the invitation as an "ultimatum" and Shea made it plain the mayor was responding in kind. "I'm going to press for an earlier meeting with Warren Giles, president of the league than July," Sha said. I want to meet with Giles some time this month and find out if we've got a franchise. But not one drop of cement will be poured until we've got a team." ilk . . SHARE IN OUR SUCCESS! LfU Gamblers Said Moving In On College Sports Washington (IP) Rep. Kenneth B. Keating (R-N.Y.) called Saturday for federal action to prevent big - time gamblers from "horning in" on college sports. He said there are indica tions that "more and more, the big time gamblers are in vading the college campuses in carrying out their opera tions." He urged passage of a bill to cut the "nerve center" of bookmaking operations by banning the use of any com munications facility to trans mi t gambling information across state lines. He said he also would ask house com merce committee chairman Oren Harris (D-Ark.) Monday to order a "full-scale investi gation of interstate betting on sports events."
