Imagine a truck ride so smooth, and cushioned that fragile loads can travel the worst "wash
board" roads with ease. Imagine a truck ride that virtually eliminates shimmy; and wheel fight,
cuts side sway on curves, makes steering far steadier and easier, keeps drivers far fresher."
Imagine a truck ride that permits higher safe cruising speeds, more trips per day with all kinds
of cargo over every type of road surface. Imagine a ride that keeps up to 78 of all objectionable
road shock and vibration from ever reaching the driver and cargo, a design that sharply reduces
twisting and fatigue forces on chassis, cabs and bodiesj that keeps trucks young for extra ;
thousands of miles. Soon you won't have to just imagine such a ride. You can try it for yourself
in the trucks that do the next best thing to paving every road in America new Chevrolet trucks
for I960. You'll see what happens when Chevy's truck engineers design a whole new line of trucks '
around a whole new kind of torsion-spring suspension. These trucks are new from the ride on up
with wonderfully roomier cabs, brawnier frames, style that's fresh as sixty and
more! Don't decide on any new truck till you see the newest of all.
; See them soon at your local authorized Chevrolet dealers.

were held for f downs but a

again, Phoenix was stymied.
A long McHugh pass carried
the Calif ornians to the Pi
rate 26 and McHugh tossed
a touchdown aerial to John
Heile. That made it 9 to 6
for Mt. Shasta at the half.
On the third quarter boot
off, Phoenix fumbled but re

then shook Consbruck open
for an 88-yard TD jaunt and

Phoenix three-yard line.

A , fumble recovery gave
Phoenix the ball at midf ield
and runs by Consbruck, Lum

35 and Lumley got loose for
a 65 yard TD ramble and
a 24 to 16 score.

steinstein with' a long one on
a 63-yaru pass play and Hot

yards with the ball. After
