More and more sportsmen are
getting more and more interested
in getting more and more speed
from their boats. There is no
magic formula that will make an
outboard outfit go faster, but
there are things that can be done
to almost any of them. Our boats
and motors editor, Willard Cran
dall, says it can be done without
the kind of motor souping up
that would cause extra wear, or
make it in any way poorer for
fishing use.
The first job when you’re after
speed is to clean the motor thor
oughly inside. Carbon and dirt
never did anything but cut rpm’s
Don’t neglect exhaust parts and
muffler system. See the intake
manifold—the path gas takes en
tering the cylinders—is well
smoothed off Remove all rough
ness from casting imperfections.
The motor should turn over as
freely as possible. Gears with
•worn teeth, or that mesh too
tightly, or any ailing bearings
can cause trouble. Compression
should be good; check gaskets,
replace piston rings if there is
doubt about them. Balance, by
filing, reciprocating parts such as
pistons and connecting rods.
Smooth up the lower unit.
Do all this well and you’ll have
in all ways a better motor. But go
further and you will soon start
taking some risk of inducing ex
cessive wear, or cutting the use
fulness of your outfit for fishing.
The amateur’s greatest chance
for increased speed with his fish
ing outfit lies, of course, with the
propeller. When you order a
speed prop from the manufacturer,
tell him all about your boat. Tell
him all you know—not just length
and beam. Then he can pick the
best size for you. Tell him all
about your motor too, of course,
and just what weight will be
aboard when you want to do your
speeding, or want friends aboard
for a speedboat ride—rather than
super-speed when you’re by your
self—you can get a propeller for
that too—very likely a three-
blade job. 4
One more point: raise your
transom. The standard height,

IHE following, under the
heading, “Salute to Compe
tition,” has appeared in
a number of South Carolina
Newspapers, but it will bear*,
repeating:
A businessman has a plaque
on a wall above his desk which
reads as follows:
“Mv competitors do more for
me than my friends do; my
friends are too polite to point
out iry weaknesses, but my com
petitors go to great expense to
advertise them.
“My competitors are efficient,
diligent and attaotive; they
make me search for ways to im
prove by products and services.
“My competitors would take
my business away from me, if
they could; this keeps me alert
to hold what I have.
“If I had no competitors I
would be lacy, imcompetent, in
attentive; I need the discipline
they enforce upon me.
“I salute my competitors!
they have been good to me. God
bless them all!”
Business competition takes
many forms. Whatever the
form, competition is the great
est force for progress that
exists.

City In his new role of radio
emcee sportscaster Harry Wismer
Is the man behind the magic wand
who hears the plans and problems
of three people seeking fulfillment
of life-long ambitions and then
promptly turns them into realities
before the broadcast ends.
Harry Wismer has been In the
fast, furious sportscasting business
for 19 years and is finding that
granting wishes every eight min
utes takes some rapid fire wording,
too Possibly being host on
“Wonderful City,” his first venture
into regularly scheduled daytime
radio, fills his secret longing to be
famous for somethinj besides
sportscasting, but he isn’t telling.
“Wonderful City*' has changed a
whole way of life for one married
conple . . The missus was wor
ried because she had never cooked
a meal for her husband daring their
13 years of marriage—she couldn’t
cook . . Harry had a consoling
smile for the meal-less husband
and two weeks of private cooking
lessons for the wife . . . Wonder if

a fine instrumental on “Legend”
backed by “Theme from Runny-

also comes up with a good one in
“Gigi” with “Shane” on the flip

W e have just the place for you.
If such is your desire.
It’s at the wheel of a 1953 Buick with
Twin-Turbine Dynaflow.
And we suggest you hold on to your
hat and your heart when the action
starts—for here’s what happens:
\bu press the pedal and, from a
standing start, you’re up to a legal
30 mph before you have time to
breathe but twice.
Or, you’re in the thick of traffic —
moving smoothly, easily, quietly.
Then, when it’s safe to do so, you
move instantly into the clear with
the greatest of ease—in one progres
sive build-up of velvet acceleration—
without a single gear shifted or a
clutch pedal pushed.
That , sir, is the big thrill command
you get in any 1953 Buick Special,
Super or Roadmaster with new
Twin-Turbine Dynaflow.
For this fully automatic drive now
has two turbines where one did the
trick before. Two turbines for instant
getaway response—with whisper
quiet—and with infinite smoothness
through all ranges.
Of course, *a lot of able power goes
with this smooth, quick getaway—the
highest horsepowers and compres
sion ratios, Series for Series, in all
Buick history.
And so does big room. And the
supreme comfort of the BuickMillion
Dollar Ride. And the superb han
dling ease of finely balanced weight.
Even Power Steering* is at hand to
make parking and turning still easier.
Why not drop in on us soon and
sample one of these great new 1953
Buicks with TT Dynaflow? It’s an
experience — and a value story — too
good to miss.
* Standard on Roadmaster, optional at extra cost
on other Series.
