L. Robert Mariels, head of the jail division, and Sgt. Robert W. Sprague as the officers involved. The chief said Mariels re-i ceived information which prompted a search of the women's iail for narcotics. He said that in Capt. Mariels' judgment It was necessary for the captain and Sgt. Sprague to be in close proximity to the scene of the search. He said they were in the women's jail but not in the cell at the time. Two matrons conducted the search, he said. The chief said all 14 women prisoners were searched by matrons that day and that "it is significant that no male of ficers were in the women's jail at any other of these searches." Called Occasionally Chief Johnson said "pres ence of male officers at dis robing of female prisoners is not without precedent, on oc casion, male jailers are called upon by the matrons to assist them in cases where unruly female prisoners have to be disrobed for the purpose of a search or their own safety The chief said the search uncovered no narcotics. Mrs. Zinis was found guilty on the disorderly conduct charge Tuesday in Municipal Court and fined $25, but post ed an appeal bond.

KrZ. .KlOCf Add up the Facts... Subtract the Fiction... THE ANSWER IS RAMBLER'63 rHAT'S AHEAD ttaafa really new and different in cara for 1963? You'll get your best and moat com plete answer October 6th. That's when the 1963 Ramblers will go on display at Rambler dealer showrooms across the nation. Then a lot of the fiction that has been coming out of Detroit will fade like fog under a morning sun. On that day, you'U see the facts about Rambler and you'U find them mora exciting than all the rumors, guesses and speculation. Facts ts Fiction One such fiction would have you beliava that the 1963 Ramblers will be longer . . . thereby moving away from the compact-car con cept that put Rambler into the top rank of car sales. You'll be delighted with the facts, and they are that the all new 1963 Rambler Classic Six and 250 HP Rambler Ambassador V-8 are not longer. Nor is the Rambler American.1 We can't help it if stolen glimpses have fooled some of the "experts." That New Shape of Quality, that stretch-out room for six (Mooters, that sleek low silhouette in Classic and Ambas sador, do give an impression of greater length. But the tape meas ure doesn't lie! Rambler has not given up its birthright. Ramblcrv8"Standard Size" Another bit of Detroit folklore . solemnly says that the market for Rambler-size cars is shrinking . . . while the big "standard-size" cars of the "low-priced" field are stag ing a comeback. The facts? Just look at lha chart below! segment in the automobile Indus try in March, 1962, and have been entrenching their lead ever since. All the while, since September of 1959, the share of market of the so-called "low-priced, standard size" cars has been dropping and dropping . . . and dropping. Just as American Motors pre dicted back in 19591 Rambler Size vs "Medium" There's a wistful fiction around that more and more people are spending more and more money for the cars that have more and more size and horsepower in the "medium-price" field a bracket above the so-called "low-priced, standard-size" cars. Facts take the wind out of such sales claims. MKI) INIWtH, J .y mm umui an - - "KiMcmrntr - P" I I L V'-d 25r I -j n uaull liu a-tln WIS imimiirr l ' These facts show that Rambler size cars became the largest single The facts are that the "medium price" field has shrunk from 40 of all cars sold in 1955 to about 25 in 1959 and to around 18 in June of this year. Early in 1960, Rambler-size cars breezed past the "medium-price" field in sales and now lead the "medium-priced" cara by more than two to one, 37.9 Rambler size to 18 "medium price." The Rambler Philosophy One interesting fiction is that, for 1963, Rambler will veer from its long-time philosophy of never making changes for the mere sake of change alone . . . will come out with radically different cars in at least two Rambler series. The facts are that 1963 will see dramatically and beautifully new Rambler Classics and Ambassa dors . . , strikingly new American hardtopi , , , but every one with all the quality, character and fea- , tures that already have mads Rambler the first choice of more tluin two million of the most satis fied car owners in America. The Rambler philosophy hasn't changed one single iota. The basic continuity of its functional use fulness will still be a self-evident fact for you to see when you walk into your Rambler dealer's, October 6th. , " Look at Fiction's Record! From the very first, the facta about Rambler have always con founded the fiction spinners. They chuckled derisively at the prediction in 1959 that Rambler size cara (then accounting for a scant 7 of the market) would become the top-volume cars in America. Today, they are, with almost 40 of the market . . . more than any other size or price segment. Fiction declared that people wanted ever-bigger, mors power ful, increasingly gas-thirsty cars. Facts proved that people wanted no such things they wanted Ramblers with big-car room, com fort and performance but with compact-car parkability and economy. Just look at the Rambler rec ord! 65,390 Rambler sales in 1956 model year . . . 154,372 in 1958 . . . 423,127 in 1960 ... and for the 1962 model year the total will be 440,000 or more. See the chart below. MMIltri SAIH GROWTH mil , sar mm 1 . P mm ' zrzr - ' IMt IIU IMt IK! Usefulness to the User For a long while there was a widely accepted fiction that an indepen dent couldn't last in the automo tive battle of the giants. Rambler substituted success facts for that ancient fiction and American Motors became a major factor in American industry. It gave every customer an obviously better value in product and price . . . the most usefulness to the user . .'. and Rambler moved right up into the top rank of the best-selling cars. Today, thess Rambler advan tages are part of the American motoring language: Deep-Dip rustproofing . . . Double - Safety Brakes . '. Ceramic-Armored muffler and tailpipe ... Cushioned ' Acoustical Ceiling . . . Adjustable, Reclining, Lounge -Tilt Seats ... , many others that are either exclu sive with Rambler or are matched only in higher-priced cars. Unit Construction Facts For a full decade after Rambler introduced stronger, quieter and safer unit construction, every other car manufacturer clung to the idea that the best way to build an automobile was still ox cart style, with a body bolted to a frame from above. Then, overnight it seemed, they discovered unit construction. The result? Every new passenger car brought out in the last three years has copied Rambler's unit construc tion! But for 1963, Rambler again moves years ahead with Advanced Unit Construction. Through many years, while all the others were trying to ignore Rambler's unit construction, our engineers were perfecting the techniques of this better way to build an automo bile . . . bringing improvements that will be introduced in the 1963 Ramblers. October 6th will reveal a "unit construction gap" between the '63 Rambler and its imitators comparable to the gap that existed : when Rambler was America's only-unit-constructed carl See the FACTS, Oct. 5th! Here's what you'U find when you meet the 1963 Ramblers: The strongest, the safest, the quietest, the smoothest, the most comfort able, the longest-lasting, the most service-free, the easiest-handling and the best-performing Ramblers ever built. PLUS Ramblers that are the most beautiful ever built . . . with the New Shape of Quality evident in every line. PLUS such multi-thousand-dollar car features as Scena-Ramic curved glass side windows, Bucket Seat with Console, Twin-Stick Floor Shift with Instant Overtake. PLUS quality so high and prices so low that you'U not be able to match Rambler values in any other automobile showroom, any where. And that's no fiction either!
