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?

a completely new concept in auto
motive design and styling with
the introduction of their 1965
models.
The Catalina, Star Chief, and
Bonneville models all present an
appealing 'silhouette A s they are
longer, lower, and wider on the
exterior and contain more room
and luxurious furnishings in the
interior.
The combination of styling ex
cellence and outstanding perform
ance, which has vaulted Pontiac
into one of the front runners in
automobile sales, prevails Again
in 1965.
The Catalina models, Grand
Prix sports coupe and all station
wagons have a 121-inch wheel
base while the Star Chief and the

range.”
The 1965 Pontiacs go on sale in
dealer showrooms September 24.
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.

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.
The new Tempests go on sale

a convertible and a Safari.

is a sports coupe, a hardtop coupe,
a convertible and a new four-
foor sedan.
The new Tempests have under
gone a complete restyling of the
front end. The distinctive Pontiac
split grille, which is recessed
slightly from the down curve of
the hood line, has the definite
Pontiac look as twin verticle
mounted headlamps flank the
grille on both sides. They have a
horizontal line pattern setting the
lower headlight apart from the
upper and accenting them both.
Today is '65 Pontiac Day.
L
1965: The year of the Quick Wide-Tracks
What do we mean by "quick”? Just this: A new-all-over Pontiac Pontiac offering a new Turbo Hydra-Mafic
—the silkies^ swiftest-shifting automatic transmission you ever touched a toe to; eager new Trophy V-8
/ power; new steering agility; a surer-footed Wide-Track ride. And a new Pontiac Tempest that’s become even
/ more of a Pontiac with new style, new length and Pontiac-quick reflexes to match. You never knew cars
could be so beautiful, and so keenly alert to your touch. This is your year to drive a Wide-Track—quick I
'Q5 Pontiac Pontiac ^ ow ^ oes t,1e success car outdo itself for 1965? Beautifully, just beautifully. But this Pontiac has no
intention of getting by on looks alone, though it could. So there's new quickness, Pontiac style. A
new nimbleness. New fuel savings. A smooth, easy new ride. Drive a '65 Pontiac and see how one
success leads to another.
'65 Pontiac Tempest Tempest's even more of a Pontiac now, and what more could a car be than that! The '65 Tempest
^ looks like a Pontiac, as you can see. Rides like a Pontiac on Wide-Track. Goes like a Pontiac, too- a
140-hp six is standard. Or you can get a quick V-8, up to 285 hp. You'll wonder how we can keep the
price so low on so much car.
