The sweeping elegance of the newly created silhouette of the Series Sixty-Two
six-window Sedan typifies the handsome lines and simplicity of design of the 1960
Cadillac. The popular six-window Sedan features all of the advanced engineering and
design characteristics of the new models.
Toughest Driver in lown!
Careful Percy McFidget—who would believe that
he’s harder on his car than anybody in town? Why,
he never goes over 35 or takes a trip over 10 miles!
Actually this kind of driving is very hard on a car
engine because the engine seldom gets “warmed up”
sufficiently. The oil tends to be sluggish. Sludge forms
in the crankcase. The way is open for dangerous
wear and corrosion.
But there’s something you can do about this, to
protect your motor. If you have to do a lot of start-
and-stop driving at low speeds, as most of us do, use
Trop-Artie* Motor Oil. It flows fast... resists sludge
formation ... helps your car run better, longer. Get
Trop-Artic Motor Oil at any station where you see
the Phillips 66 Shield.

Kirk Cadillac
Showing ’60 Model
In announcing the 1960 Cadil
lac, which went on public display
last weekend, James M. Roche,
Cadillac general manager and
vice president of General Motors,
said, “The newness of the 1960
Cadillac is emphasized by its
handsome lines and elegant sim
plicity of design.
“In addition to the styling ad
vances are important develop
ments in mechanical operation, in
cluding further progress in
achievement of smoothness and
quietness of performance and sig
nificant developments in the»
braking system.”
For 1960, Cadillac is offering
13 models in three standard se
ries and one custom series, the
Eldorado Brougham. All models
are basically unchanged in dim
ensions over last year’s models.
The wider and lower appearance
of the new front grille is achieved
by the addition of a fine horizontal
bar between each row of jewel
like ornaments and the elimina
tion of the center bumper bar. At
each end of the front bumper is
a visored housing with two park
ing and directional signal lamps.
As a new safety feature, driver
convenience and another Cadillac
first, the front fender crown
moldings, in addition to conceal
ing the junction line between fen
der and hood, have a new chrome
ornament with a small amber light

on the rear face which serves as
a turn signal indicator. The new
side view silhouette is achievec
with the lower, more restrainec
tail fin design which gives the ef
fect of one long, sweeping line
from the hood through the entire
length of the car.
The trim, classic lines which
mark the 1960 Cadillac are bril
liantly evident in the rear enc
styling with the most distinctive
lighting arrangement ever offeree
by Cadillac.
Just below the contoured tail-
light lenses in the trailing edge
of the fins are new vertical, oval,
chrome bumper housings each con
taining two circular lamps with
concave lens. The lower lamp with
a red refleptor lens serves as a
taillight, stoplight, and direction
al signal light operating in uni
son with the taillight in the fin
itself. The upper lamp is the back
up light.
The major engineering advance
ment for 1960 involves the brakes.
Increased rear brake cooling, pro
vided by new finned and extended
rear drums, makes possible the
use of larger rear wheel brake
cylinders. This provides better
braking distribution between front
and rear wheels.
Another part of the brake story
is a self-adjusting feature which
automatically adjusts the brakes
as needed when the car is operat
ed in reverse gear.
Finally, there is another Cad
illac first — a vacuum-released
parking brake. With the engine

The “Town and Atom” presen

The exhibit, a part of the At

During its tour of South Caro

see the ways in which the peace
ful atom is playing important
roles in everyday life. The exhi
bits, some of them operated by
the spectator himself, explain re
search and development in the
atomic field, ranging from the
mining and refining of radioac
tive ores to the construction of
nuclear reactors designed to pro
vide electric power.
Panels and models explain the
basic principles of atomic energy
and its uses and applications to
the peacetime fields of medicine,
power production, industry, agri
culture and research.
One of the mobile’s exhibits
shows the way in which radio-ac
tive materials and radiation are
used in the field of medicine to
aid both the physician and the
patient, particularly in cancer
treatment.
The power reactors used in the
submarine “Nautilus” and “Sea
Wolf” are explained in the dis
play showing atoms at work for
industry. The spectator may op
erate this animated panel to see
how a nuclear reactor using atomic
fuel can produce heat to convert
water into steam which activates
a turbine and generator to pro
duce electricity. r
The agriculture display explains
the uses of radioactive elements
and compounds in fertilizers and
studies in plant growth and nutri
tion and insecticides. The rays
given off by radioactive sub
stances have been used in genetic
tests to produce new and differ
ent types of plants—disease-resis
tant wheat and corn, and thim-
shelled peanuts. Work is now in
progress using this same radiation
to kill the bacteria which caOSO
spoilage in foodstuffs.
