DODGE FOR '63—The standard-size, low-price Dodge for 1963 has a 119-inch
wheelbase and larger exterior dimensions which appreciably increase inside roomi
ness and trunk space. Twenty-four different models are offered, including the
Polara four-door hardtop shown above.
’63 Dodge Longer, Roomier/
Offers Choice of 24 Models
DETROIT — Dodge intro
duced a longer, roomier, stand
ard-size entry in the low-price
car market today.
The new Dodge is built on a
119-inch wheelbase and b six
inches longer than last year's
models. The Dodge line offers
a choice of 24 different models
in three series.
Bo*h the popular-price Dodge
and its compact companion, the
1963 Dart, will be shown to the
public at dealers' showrooms on
October 2.
Wide Selection
Dodge General Manager
Byron J. Nichols said the new
Dodge, the compact Dart and
the luxury-line Dodge 880 — to
be introduced in December —
will give motorists the widest
selection of cars in the com
pany’s 49-year history.
Nichols said the bigger di
mensions of the new Dodge
make possible substantial in
creases in passenger roominess
and comfort, and in trunk
space. Leg room for back seat
passengers, for example, has
been expanded by nearly two
inches and knee clearance by
nearly one and one-half. Trunk
space has been increased by
more than 10 per cent.
The 119-inch-wheelbase
Dodge is offered in these three
series: the lowest-price “330,"
the middle-line “440," and the
deluxe Polara.
Eight sedan and station
wagon models are in the 330
series; eight sedan, hardtop and
station wagon models in the
440 series; and six sedan, hard
top and convertible models in
the Polara series.
Bucket Seat Models
In addition, there are two
high-performance sports
models — the Polara 600 two-
door hardtop and convertible.
Both have bucket seats and con
venience consoles.
The Dodge for '63 also offers
a wide choice of engines, in
cluding a 225-cub?''-inch Slant
Six and a family of V-8’s with
displacements ranging from
318 to 383 cubic inches.
Styling highlights of the
1963 Dodge are a wide, rec
tangular grille with bold, ver
tical bars; a new, canopied roof
and rear-window treatment;
and distinctive, rectangular tail
lights.
The new Dodges offer 12 ex
terior colors and 14 optional
two-tone combinations. A
special two-tone treatment is
standard on Polara 500 models.
The 1963 Dodge features a
host of mechanical improve
ments designed to make it
^dependability-engineered,"
Nichols said.
Among the engineering in
novations are:
A newly developed aerody
namic windshield wiper blade
which resists windlift at high
speeds.
More thorough protection
from corrosion. The body of the
car is given a deeper dip in
anti-corrosion primer. Rust
proof clips are used for the
body moldings.
An aluminized exhaust sys
tem with a 50 per cent longer
life expectancy.
Transistor Radios
Transistorized radios which
provide “instant play" when
they are switched on.
A replaceable, automatic-
transmission oil filter which ex
tends the oil-change period to
32,000 miles.
Other features include: 100
per cent nylon warp upholstery
which is more durable and re
sists fading and staining; six
way custom positioning on all
front seats; strong, unitized
body construction; and torsion-
bar front suspension.
From George Conrad, Adrian.
Michigan: I am told I was born in
a sod house. I do not remember
the event, but I must have been
there. I do remember as a boy
going out into the wheat fields to
shock wheat and having dinner in
a sod house. This sod house was
in Franklin, Nebraska. The year
was 1912.
The walls of this sod house must
have been about two feet thick,
plastered over. The roof was of
more modern materials. The fam
ily had a pleasant frame house,
but used the sod house in summer
for cooking and eating. It must
have been cooler.
In the '80’s, father was trying
to make enough to buy “railroad"
land. Mother felt the land to be
cruel. The trees were too small to
supply fven a “whip” for driving
the horses. Prairie fires were
frequent, and a fire strip was
plowed about the place to break
the fire from the home place.
As I recall the yean, they were
a mixture of romance and cruelty,
hoopla and agitation. The sod
house, however, reminds me al
ways to keep down to earth.
• • •
From E. M. Newhall, Loma,
Montana: I remember the dry
years of the 90’s when it seemed
it could not rain. We had thunder
storms that blew dust into the air
and made dirt drifts in the fence
rows.
In the 1900’s, we got lots of rain.
The Dakota Farmer started ad
vertising Montana homesteads and
people came from all over the
U.S. to get a homestead where
some expected to plow dollars out
of the prairie. They never did.
But those who stuck it out have
nice homes and are doing well.

Return From
Athens Meet
“Many hundreds of thousands
will survive the world-wide war of
Armageddon, foretold in the
Bible, and which is due to ravage
the whole earth in this genera
tion,” 654 persons attending the
Athens Conference of Jehovah’s
Witnesses, during the past week

District Supervisor.
Delegates from the Newberry
congregation returned home from
the Athens Assembly refreshed as
a result of instruction and Christ
ian fellowship with people from
30 or more towns and cities of
northeast Georgia and the Caro-
linas.
Fourteen new ministers quali
fied for baptism and were ordain
ed to the ministry. Baptism fol

Brooks stated that the things
learned at the assembly will be

coming weeks and each one will
seek to apply the principles in his
ministry. New goals set by the
Watchtower Society for the com
ing year will be posted this week.
Each minister will seek to spend
10 hours or more in the ministry

interest in increasing their know

gate And Make Known All Integration Efforts Which Come To
Their Attention.
We make the foregoing statement with good will toward the law-abiding

whose progress benefits us all. But we believe the welfare of our en
tire community, including our Colored citizens, will be better serv
ed by the course we now advocate.

Disabled Get
Increase
On or about October 31 some
25,000 disabled veterans in South
Carolina will start receiving
checks for increased compensation
amounting to about $1,250,000
yearly, T. R. McConnell, Adjudi
cation Officer, VA Regional Of
fice, Columbia, said today.
Under terms of the new law
signed by the President September
7, provision is made in the Octo
ber payment for the amounts of
the special increase covering the
three months preceding October.
This applies to the October checks
only for those on the compensation
rolls on October 1.
McConnell stressed there is no
need for veterans to contact the
Veterans Administration. The com
pensation checks are processed
automatically with electronic data
processing equipment so that the
checks received by veterans with
service-connected disabilities about
October 31 will contain the first
of the increases.
Designed to reflect changes in
the cost of living since 1957, when
the last compensation increase for
veterans disabled in service went
into effect, the average payment
will be 9.4 percent more than the
current rate.
Compensation for peacetime
service-connected disabilities is
paid at approximately 80 percent
of that for wartime service-con
nected disabilities.
The increases are on a sliding
scale so that the more seriously
injured veterans are to receive the
higher benefits. The increase for a
veteran who is 10 percent disabled
goes from $19 to $20 a month and
the payment to a 100 percent dis
abled veteran is upped from $225
a month to $250.
In addition to payments based
upon percentage of disability, ad
ditional “statutory” payments are
made for specified disabilities or
combinations of disabilities such
as blindness, deafness, and loss of
limbs.
The maximum amount that may
be received by a wartime veteran
who has no dependents has been
increased under the new law from
$600 to $725 monthly.
