Novel ber 11,1964 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Face FIt New 1955 Dodge Be Displayed Here November 17 m $.>r The flair-sty led 1955 Dodge features a dashing hood ornament, projected headlight hoodm “New Horizon” swept-aroond windshield, cut back doors, flared wheel openings and streamlined relr deck. This four-door sedan in the Custom Royal series has a Super Red Ram V-8 engine of 183 horsepower. Two-tone paint treatment accents the lowered roof line, sloping hood, and twin-jet taillight section. New models will be shown next Wednesday at Cooper Motor Co. 1955 Dodge Shows Advanced Concept In Design The 1955 Dodge passenger car line, an advanced concept in au tomotive design, will be intro duced next Wednesday, Nov. 17, in dealers’ showrooms across the nation. Hiey will be shown here by Cooper Motor Co. William C. Newberg, Dodge president, explained that car stylists have blended aircraft sleekness and power into a “de sign of refreshing beauty.” He revealed that Dodge engin eers have incorporated over 100 structural and mechanical inno vations in the larger, lower and wider 1955 line. He said all four- door sedans have a distinct touch of hardtop styling. Offering three series—the new and luxurious Custom Royal, the richly appointed Royal and the classic Coronet—the ’55 Dodge has a built-in look of action, re sulting from its swept-back de sign. Performance to bear out the air-slicing swiftness in styling is provided by a wide choice of en gines—the “Get-Away Six" de veloping 123 horsepower, the all- new Red Ram V-8 rated at 175 horsepower, the Super Red Ram V-8 at 183 horsepower, and the super-powered Super Red Ram V-8 at 193 horsepower. Newburg announced another automotive first for Dodge in the introduction of three-tone combi nations on Dodge Lancer hardtop and convertible models. These multiple-tone paints accent the flair styling and permit exciting new combinations in exterior color design. From front to rear the 1955 Dodge conveys an impression of classic- clean-lined simplicity. A feeling of streamlined flight is embodied in the car from the twin-opening grille to the twin- jet taillights. All 14 models have an increas ed wheelbase of 120 inches.' Ov erall length is increased by as much as 16 inches on some mod els, but the cars appear even more, lengthy due to Dodge’s flair styling. Moving from the massive chrome grille is a dashing V- type hood ornament, accenting the low, sweeping hood and fast line of front fenders. Chrome hoods over headlights further emphasize the finpreukm of forward motion. “New Horizon" windshields wrap around at both top and bot tom of the glasf for improved and safer vision. The windshield provides cockpit-like visibility for driver and front seat passen gers. The “tumble home," or inboard slant of the car’s sides above the belt line, creates an appearance of low, road-hugging massive ness. Doors, too, are new and different—partly cut back, but wider for easy entry. Novel treatment of flared rear when openings provides a speed enhancing style feature. The rear deck continues the theme of mo tion, while increasing usable trunk space by two cubic feet to 3T.7 cubic feet with spare tire in stalled. Inside, the 1955 Dode control panel can be compared to an air plane pilot’s flight Control panel. Dials are placed in a row before the driver and clustered under an “eyebrow” to reduce glare. The wider interior is flair- fashioned in harmonious color blends. Easily-cleaned jCorda- grain is combined with exclusive double - patterned Jacquard seat cloths. Door panels are dramati cally decorated with x two-tone color designs and chrome, com plimenting the new Dodge uphol stery and trim. Optional new features on the 1955 Dodge line include power brakes, power-controlled seats, power window-lifts, and a back seat hi-fidelity radio speaker. Tubeless tires are standard equipment for the first time on all models. This, together with the Dodge safety rims, make a great twin safety feature. Dodge introduces new full time coaxial power steering, an integral unit with the steering gear mechanism. This unit elimi nates 80 per cent of steering strain for the driver. All eight- cylinder models have a new sym metrical idler krm steering link age, together with the new fric tion-free steering gear boosting ease in steering. A more comfortable an4 stable ride is assured by new wide-leaf rear springs which offer a sig nificant increase in resistance to body .roll on turns. Front sus pension is roller joint with Ori- flow ride control. Thirteen colors are available, including 16 two-tone paint corn- true deserts, then South Caro linians really don’t deserve much. Less than 50 per cent of its eligible voters participated in the June primaries, and even fewer voted in the general elec tion. This voting apathy is re flected in other ways. How many “new faces” have there r ,been on the South Carolina political scene in the past ten years? Why did only two men run for governor of the state last June? And only two for lieutenant governor? - And only one for each of five other high state offices? If the voters continue their policy of staying idle most of the time, and springing into action only when confronted with a clear-cut and brazen assault on their rights, then they must ex pect to be so confronted period ically This sort of thing happens every year, in less spectacular form, in the state legislature, as for example, in the case of the proposed constitutional conven tion. It is upon this meat that our asears “doth feed.” South Carolinians can no long er dismiss these warnings with an indifferent "it can’t happen here." It very nearly did. > Gerald, Dr. John M.

Thurmond Win May Have Great Effect In State By NED RAMSAUR (In Greenville News) Columbia, Nov. 6—The full ef fect of Strom Thurmond’s sweep ing victory over over Edgar A. Brown will not be known for some time, but Nov. 2, 954, may have marked a turning point in South Carolina’s history. As Thurmond himself has rec ognized,’ his victory was not so much a personal tribute as it was a popular revulsion against incipient dictatorship. But he will always be remembered as the man who led that revolution. 'Party Loyalty' Issue Perhaps more important in the long run, however, is the damage done to the present South Caro lina Democratic party leadership. Those leaders stood by Edgar Brown to the end and conse quently must share in his defeat. Brown himself made his chief campaign issue that of “party the party itself ought now to loyalty.” That issue was decis ively rejected ^at the polls, and do a little quiet self-contemplat ing. Brown’s campaign tactics did net help his cause. From the very beginning, when party chairman Neville Bennett charg ed all those who questioned the nomination of Brown with “li bel,” a strange kind of querul- ness marked the public state ments of, the Brown forces. Un fortunately, Brown’s final state ment, in which he accused “the Republican Press” of “misletad- J. R McCain, Decatur, Ga-; Mrs. H. D. Haberyan, Shreveport, La.; John A boro, N. C.; and Dr. Lee G.

Presbyterians Name Committee To Promote Union Atlanta, Ga. — Supporters of the union of the three major Presbyterian churches of Amerca have announced a churchwide organization in the Southern church (Presbyterian, U. S.) to provide information about the movement, and to interpret it* advantages to the people- Followng a meeting of the ex ecutive committee here, the chairman, former Moderator Frank W. Price, Lexington, Va., announced that leaden in the ef fort in all synods and presbyter ies will take the initiative in the movement. Called the Friends of Presby terians Union, the organization has Halbert M. Jones, Laurin- burg, N. C., industrialist, and W. A. Benfeld, Jr., Louisville, pastor, as vice-chairinen. ( Colonel Francis Pickens Miller, Charlotesville, Va., is secretary of the movement, giving his full time to the program, with offices in Charlottesville. R. W. Jablo- nowski, Ft.

Some 159,000 other South Carolinians also vot ed for Eisenhower in 1952, and they resented this attempt at at tributing guilt by association. The 1952 vote for Eisenhower in South Carolina has long been misunderstood. It was not a Re publican vote. It was not alto gether a vote for e popular hero. It was largely a vote against a party which had been too long ir power, which had become in flexible and dogmatic, and had lost touch with the people. So it was with the sate Demo cratic Party this year. Fattanded by easy victories over the years, and in part supported by the well-entenihed oligarchy which is the state senate, the party had come to believe that it could do no wrong. But no matter how benevolent, rulers always over step themselves eventually, as they did in South Carolina this year. Up To Party The results of the general elec tion do not necesarily foreshad ow the coming of ta two-party system in this taste. Strom Thur mond ran as a Democrat and will serve as a Democratic Senator. If the state Democratic party has any collective sense at all, how ever, it will accept this election as final notice that the people are deeply concerned about its course and are determined to do something about it. If it con tinues along the path it traveled for the past two months, the day of the twoparty system is not far away. The party can take the first steps toward self-repair by oust ing those responsible for the mess into which it was led. It is inconceivable that Neville Ben nett, for example, should long continue to head the party he led to so disastrous a defeat Others should ga But whether the change is, in the long run, to be more apparent than real is up to the people.
