Heritage Phone 4211 THAT bold bonnet that stretches out before your eyes on a 1950 Buick isn’t there just for show. Lift it up, and you’ll find that the space beneath is abundantly occu pied, by one of the biggest hood fuls of power you’ll find in any motorcar. What you’re looking at is Buick’s modern version of the high-com pression valve-in-head engine, which gains extra wallop from the fact that it uses the exclusive’Fire ball combustion principle. > We could list a lot of mechanical reasons why fuel gives up extra power in a Fireball engine—how it's wrapped in a swirling, ball shaped charge—how it burns with a smooth, clean thrust that delivers maximum action. But the best way to find out what all this means is to touch off the eager horsepower out on the high way by a gentle nudge of your toe —and feel your shoulders press deep in the cushions behind them. Now all this sounds thrilling, you say, but how about die feed bills for all these horses? How about miles-per-gallon? The practical answer to that one is found in this year’s experience with the Super and Special—and even the Roadmaster. In all three, the horsepower was stepped up at the start of the year —and in all three, happy owners report the best mileage in modern Buick experience. ft )>■. Tun In HENRY J. TAYLOR, ABC Network, ©very Monday evening. r VOOeK'EVroGfffATfKV' -J This is due to a little-known but authentic engineering fact—which is that an engine burns less gas when it doesn’t have to labor. At any normal driving speed, there fore, extra power is extra thrifty. So we say again—if you’re looking for power—mighty power—buoy ant power—silken power— thrifty power—better buy Buick. Your Buick dealer is eager for the chance to demonstrate how sound this hint really is.
