THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1964 THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA PAGE SEVEN Are You Listening? Heart diseases are the discussed medical problems of the day. Everyone thinks about it be cause the obituary columns are full of accounts of people who have suddenly died with cardio vascular disorders. We have be come most observant of chest pains and pains running through the back and arms. The general public today can know more about the heart disorders than many doctors knew fifty years ago. Much of our reading today is ■warning us to avoid becoming fat, to eat low animal fat diets, to avoid stress and tensions, to get plenty of wholesome exercise, and plenty of bed rest. All of these pertain to the physical heart, but so little is said about the spirit ual heart. We have become very aware of the hearts function in keeping us physically alive, but we have disregarded the hearts function in keeping us spiritually alive. Anyone who can read can know of the value of digitalis for heart failure. We can study much about oxygen therapy for coronary pain or low salt diets for controlling high blood. One does not have to be a doctor to learn that Diuretic injections can be used for the control of dropsical fluids, or to know of the surgical advances for congenital and valvular heart diseases. The average layman to day can know much about the physical heart, but I am thorough ly convinced that unless we be come more concerned with the treatment of the spiritual heart, all of the others will b0 of no avail. Many people with heart defects have entrusted their lives to the hands of a surgeon and a pump oxygenator; the artificial heart on the table next to the operating table. They have allowed their heart to be opened, sewn up, and all the while they were being kept alive by a piece of machinery. Af ter the closure of the ceptal de fect, the patient was returned to his room and eventually jto com plete recovery. Isn’t i medical science a marvelous thing ^ Isn’t it great that God has entrusted a man with mind and skill I enough to do such a thing as this? But isn’t it shameful that people will not put their trust in the infallible Sovereign God like they do a fal lible machine? The Bible says, “Trust! in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding; in all thy ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Are you listening?

BODY STYLING All the body styles for 1965 are completely new. They all have the obvious appearance advantages of curved glass which allows the upper structure to better inte grate with the lower as part of the over-all car design. This is particularly evident on the sports coupe with its fast-flowing roof line. Curved glass makes pos sible a more efficient use of space. Pontiac windshields are larger and have less curvature for im proved vision and more effective coverage by the new windshield wipers. Several important improve ments have been made in the Pontiac convertibles which mean better appearance, more comfort and increased safety. All conver tibles have a new tempered glass rear window to provide the ulti mate in visibility and durability. This window does away entirely with deformation and scratching. Also, the window does not need to be removed and may be lowered readily with the top. NEW INTERIORS The beauty and luxury of the Pontiac interiors are highlighted by new colors, new instrument panels and new interior appoint ments. Thirteen of Pontiac’s fifteen exterior colors are new for 1965 and they are color keyed to all the interior trim materials. An instrument panel of all new design features a luxurious lea ther grained texture highlighted in chrome. Three individual ins trument openings at the center are standard on all models for 1965 and a reinforcing panel ex tends the full width of the panel. Pontiac interiors are designed in their traditionally rich and dur able fashion and they offer cloth, Morrokide and leather to meet every need. PONTIAC ENGINES Pontiac offers a wide range of performance-proven V-8 engines and synchromesh or automatic transmission combinations. Engin eering refinements are evident in the 1965 engines which range in horsepower from 256 to 376 h.p. In addition to the three and four speed synchromesh transmissions, Pontiac offers a new Turbo-Hy- di-a-Matic transmission for 1965. It is optional in all Pontiac mod els. Pontiac accessories for 1965 provide improved comfort and ad ded convenience. Automatic tem perature control is a new option on the regular air conditioning system which provides thermostat ically controlled interior tempera ture. A passenger can dial the de- sirerd temperature and the auto matic control will maintain this interior temperature regardless of outside conditions. The Pontiac air conditioning system itself is all new and fea tures a 20 per cent more cooling to the passengers. Also, a pre-start electric en gine warm-up will be a new Pon tiac accessory. It is designed for areas where the temperatures are below freezing most of the win ter. THE TEMPEST LINE Pontiac Motor Division’s Tem pest for 1965 presents new styling including vertically mounted head lights, increased length, new col ors and two new models for ex tended market coverage. The Tempest Custom series has added a two-door hardtop coupe and the LeMans series now has a four-door sedan available. There will be a total of 12 different mod els available in the three Tempest series. o “With the new styling design, engineering advances, and the “big car” appearance of the Tem pest, along with two new models, the 1965 Tempest line represents an even greater opportunity for the Pontiac customer to find his choice of an automobile,” E. M. Estes, a General Motors Vice- President and general manager of Pontiac Motor Division, said. The 1965 Tempest and LeMans models are three inches longer than previous models, measuring 206 inches in overall length. The wheelbase for all models is 115 inches.
