Rain was forecast In the South,

Of Victory
ATLANTA" (UP) Under Coach
Bowden Wyatt, Tennessee's vastly
Improved football team is reviving
oleasant memories among its sup
porters of 16 years of domination
over arch-rival Kentucky.
Kentucky fans figured that their
frustration had ended when Gen.
Robert Neyland stepped down as
the Volunteers' head coach after
the 1952 season.
The reasoning seemed sound as
Kentucky beat Tennessee In . 1953
for the first win over Its biggest
rival since 1835. It looked even
sounder as the Wildcats, made it
two in a row, 14-13, last year.
At the start of the current season
' It appeared that the Wildcats
would make it three in a row. Ten
nessee was expected to finish near
. the cellar and Kentucky was a
darkhorse title threat after: a 7-3
record 1n 1954.
NEYLAND STUDENT .
However. Wyatt, a former Ney-
land student serving his first year
at Tennessee, is going all out to
make the Vols a team of Neyland's
standard.
After losing their first two games
to Mississippi state ana uane, toe
Vols found themselves. Since then
they have not been beaten in six
games. They tied highly favored
Georgia Tech 1-1.
Wyatt, who came back . to his
alma mater from Arkansas, stuck
with the slngle-wlng formation that
Neyland made famous at Tennes
see and fielded a team well ground
ed In the fundamentals of blocking'
and tackling. ' . , ,
The Vols, sparked by tailback
Johnny Majors, who can do it all
pass, '- run and kick with the
best in the South, racked up 161
points in their last six games,!
while a stubborn defense gave up
only 21 points.
LONG SHOT
Tennessee has won the favorite's
spot, but Kentucky is not ready
to give up by a long shot. Wildcat
fans will be looking for quarter
back Bob Hardy to find a soft spot'
in the Vol defenses with his sharp
passes.
In the only other Southeastern
Conference battle this week, the

a fullback duel between the
Bruins' All America candidate.
Bob Davenport, and the Trojans'
Oordy Duvall, solid turf will add
the spice of fast-stepping hall-
backs Jon Arnett of USC and Sam
Brown of UCLA.
The 10-point favorite Bruins can
wrap up their third- Pacific Coast
Conference championship and the
Rose Bowl Invitation with a vic
tory. A loss, though, coupled wtth
an Oregon Stata triumph, would
throw things into a peculiar stale
of confusion.
Such a situation would give Ore
gon State the PCC crown on a 8-1
record, against UCLA's 5-1. But
conference rules specify that in
Rase Bowl voting "The team which
receives a majority of the nine
votes cast is the representative,
regardless of the number or nature
of Its wins or losses during the
season." That could mean prob
ably would that UCLA would get
the bowl bid on the strength of Its
38-0 win over the Beavers Oct. 8.
Oregon State's single winy, plus
season-long alert play, ranks the
Beavers one-touchdown favorites
over the Ducks. Any breaks OC'
casloned by slippery going on the
field could work to the advantage
of OSC, which has made a practice
of seldom letting a mtsplay go to
waste.

from your
Tliia year, everybody ia talking about safety in automobiles. And
with good reason. The hazards of the road take more American
lives every year than we lost in the whole Korean war.
So important things are being done to make cara safer.
But isn't safety even more important ia trucks?
If safety ia important to the man who drives a car a few hours
a day, isn't it even more important to the man (and Ms family)
who drives a truck for a living?
We think it is.
And we think you wives think it is. That's why we believe
you'll be vitally interested in what Ford has done to make driving
a truck safer for your husband.
Ford has taken the lead in safety with not just one, but a
whole family of new safety features for America's trucks and cars.
What are these features that could be so important to you?
1 Lifeguard Steering Wheel
Ford's exclusive) Lifeguard
truck steering wheel is buSt is
such a way that, in case of
accident, it helps protect the
driver from any contact with
the steering post. This kind
of "deep-center" . steering
wheel actually acta as a cushion in case of accidents.
2 Lifeguard Door Latches
Ford's Lifeguard door latches have a new
"double grip" type construction. Their extra holding
strength gives added protection against doors Sy trig
open in the event of an accident ... to help keep
the driver in the truck where he's twice as safe.
3. Scat Belts
You've read a lot about seat belts. You probably
know that the Accident Research Center at Cornell
University, the American College of Surgeons and
many other groups strongly urge that every owner
equip his vehic5 with eeat belts. Studies prove that
in about one-half of all atxideate, injuries could be
avoided or reduced by the uee of teat belts.
Ford is the first truck manufacturer to make
seat belts available (at low extra coat, for both
new and used trucks).
In case of an accident, or sudden stop, s Ford
Seat Belt holds the driver firmly in the scat. This
greatly cuts down tbs chances of serious injury.
And remember it isn't necessary to be driving
fast to be seriously
injured or thrown out of
the truck in case of an
accident. A sizable per
centage of injuries of this
kind occur at speeds of
only 30 or even 25 miiea
per hour. (If your dealer
happens to be out of seat
belts temporarily, please
be patient. He will have
' them shortly ,
4 Tabeless Tire
; This year, tubeiess tires are standard equipment
on every Ford Track, Tu&efess tires do not prevecfc
t punctures. But they do help to prevent msrsjr biow
oute. When s puncture occurs in tubefeee tire, th
air is apt to escape very slowly. The driver has a
greater chance to alow down Bad stop aefdy;
5 Power Brakes y
, What we call vacuum-boosted power brake -make
it possible for the driver to apply a lot more '
force to the brakssj faater artd easier. Hiia makaa it
possible to stop faster in emergencies. Power brakes
are standard or available on every '56 Ford Truck.
6. High Visibility
A better view of the road in front, behind and ,
to the sides caa help the driver to spot tr&abtt
before it happens. A new full-wrap windshield is
standard on '56 Ford Trucks. The standard rear
window is the widest on any truck . asd a new ,
jull-vcrap rear window is available at slight extra
cost. All told, a new Ford Truck gives the driver on
of the greatest all-around glass areas of any truck,
T Reserve Power
A "slowpoke" truck can be a
threat to highway safety ii is a
stumbling block in the path of
other tragic. Trucka should have
enough power to keep up with
the traffic stream. And they :
should have enough reserve power to puli out of
emergency situations. So you will be interested to
know that the new Ford Tracka for '66 have power
increases up to 26, to make sure drivers have all
the reserve power they are ever likely to need.
Why should any man who drives a truck for a
living take chances, needless chances, by not taking
advantage of every available safety device?
To repeat if safety is important to a man who
drives a car once in a while, isn't it far more
important to the man who drives a truck eii day,
, for a living?
When a man drives a 66 Ford Truck from
' Pickup to tandem-axle Bio 3oa he and his family
have this peace of mind. They know he's driving a
truck that gives him tfmadded protection of exclusive
Lifeguard safety features. ,
