Election Of Bishops Heads
Jurisdictional Meet Agenda
The attention of more than 2'b
million Methodists in the South
east, as well as in other parts of
the country, will be centered on

gates, and total attendance is ex
pected to exceed 2,000. including
church officials, fraternal dele
gates and visitors.
The first ballot for the election
of bishops is scheduled for the
Thursday morning session. Many
ministerial and lay leaders predict
that more than a dozen ballots will
be necessary before two men re

"favorite son," they point out.
The bishops-elect are to be
formally consecrated and installed

New Style Tire
lis Being Shown
In Waynesville
Motorists of Waynesville are
among the first in the country to
have an opportunity to equip their
I cars with the new Goodyear Cap
jtive-Air safety tires, it was an
nounced today by Allison & Dun
! can Tire Co., Goodyear dealer.
That's because Waynesville is
| part of the Goodyear Charlotte
, sales district which has been select
ed as one of the five major market
ing areas jn the country for in
troduction of the new safety tire,
just announced by the Goodyear
i Tire & Rubber Co.
Described as a tire which car
ries its own built-in spare, the Cap
tive-Air is actually a t ire-wit hin-a
tire. In case of a blowout or punc
j ture. only the air in the outer
chamber escapes. The car is supJ
ported by the "captive air" in the
inner tire?and it rolls on without
swerving, stopping, or even slow
ing down.
j This safety feature, it was em
phasized, reduces to the barest
minimum the dangers of swerving
into approaching traffic, or going
off the road if a tire is suddenly de
flated Gone, too. are the dangers
of stopping on high-speed high
ways and freeways for an emergen
cy tire repair or change.
With the safety tires, a motorist
can keep going for 100 miles or
more after a blowout or puncture
until he reaches a service station
of his choice In one recent test, a
deflated tire was driven 261 miles
(longer than the Ohio Turnpiket
; without even reducing normal
speed.
"Motorists are invited to come in
and inspect this revolutionary new
tire and see for themselves why it
ia being hailed as the greatest ad
vance In tire design since the ppeu
matle tire was invented," said Alli
son A Duncan Tire Co. officials.

The new Nylon Captive-Air Safety Tire ??
inspired by Goodyear's famous doubIe-air?
chamber LifeGuafa? lets you ride safely and
securely on two independent cushions of air.
If the outer tire is cut, torn, or blown out, the
reserve air in the inner tire supports your car.
You can drive at legal speeds for 100 miles or
more . . . without the danger of tire-changing
in heavy traffic . . . without costly towing
charges or road repairs.
This new tire also gives you the powerful,
live-action traction of the new Twin-Grip
tread, the brawn of 3-T Nylon <tord, and
Grip-Seal construction for extra protection
against punctures. We have only a limited
supply! Be sure to see the Captive-Air Tire
