Precision was the order of the
day, the starting time of the sev
eral races being so scheduled as
to permit the entire card being com
pleted in just two hours time.
A sunny and bracing afternoon
offered an ideal setting for this
Springdale Inaugural. Overcoats
and furs proved comfortable ad
juncts to the attire of ladies and
gentlemen.
Never has a program of race
events been better bandied than
this Springdale affair. Members ot
the Camden high school state cham
pion football squad of 1947 handled
the «ate8 while thie Junior League
group sold programs and also pre
sided at the canteen, wltere coffee
and soft drinks as well as^ sand
wiches were dispensed. Scores of
state police and county officers
were on the job and every like
went off with clocklike preclsiop.
This race meeting, which will
be an annual affair, comes as
part of an active sport season
^ in Camden, which is to be cli
maxed on Saturday, March 27
with the resumption of the
. Carolina Cup race meeting, an
event that is of nation-wide in
terest and will bring a record
crowd of turf fans to the weMi
known winter and sports nel ‘
sort.

It looks like just a pretty piece of
paper, Mary, this policy in the Life
Insurance Company of Georgia.
But there is a lot behind it. • First
there is the integrity of a grand old
company that for 56 years has
known a sure and steady growth.
There are more than three million
of us who own $475,520,289 worth
of Life of Georgia protection.
The Statement of Condition showi,
how'sound the Company is.
Insurance in force increased
' $56,554,028 during the p'ast'yeaiw
And assets increased 26 per cent.
The company has policy reserve
funds of $18,174,612. la addition.
Capital, Surplus, and "Voluntary
Reserve funds for the further
protection of poliCyholdecs aMhunt
to $10,453,76.^—this is over and
above all liabilities and legal
I rdquiteiaehfs. Lah year the company
paid to policyholders and
beneficiaries $6,534,674. a These
figures mean a lot of protection for
. our family, Mary . . . «f anything
should happen to me.”

There are reasons for not mak

themianagement feeling that prema

the club interests. The Orangeburg
announcement that Lament and
DeLury bad signed with Orange

parents. Before leaving here he ac
cepted Camden terms and express
ed himself as being pleas^ with
the prospect of again playing first

It appears that if all of the pros

will be as good if not better than

Dynafloi^ Drive
r
P UT your mind’s eye to measuring the
makings of a truly masterful car — and
you certainly can’t overlook' this one, espe
cially this year.
Here you find the distinction of taper-thru
styling — the regal comfort of an all-coil
spring ride, now newly shielded against
vibration — the Fireball action of a great
straight-eight engine that boasts the quietest
purr and pulse in all motordom.
*
Already you have reason to grant tiiat it
sets a new measure of motorcar excellence,
regardless of price. Now look at something
where comparison ends — a| EoadnifiatBr’t .
Dynaflow Drive.*
For no automobile drive ever developed
makes driving so effortless, yet gives you
such near-miracle performance.
•
\ •
Here you not only drive without a clutch
pedal and without manual gearshifting — but
also without any break in your Roadmaster’s
gait, as it accelerates between all speeds.
That is because no gears ever shift any
where in the oar — not even automatically!
Here die power plant itself does what gears
used to do -* responding to the touch of your
toe on the treadle through all speed ranges
- without trace of lag or halt or hesitation.
So diou^ you’ve already decided there was
no surpassing the Roadmaster’s super ex
cellence in terms of its 4400 pounds and 18
feet of t05> styling, Imwry andiiewef^^^^just
boost your expectations still Ugher.
See the Roadmaster — try Dynaflow,—and
you’ll find more reason than ever to get your
order in - with or jRilhoiit a oar to teade.
