A sixth Veterinary Services
diagnostic laboratory has been
opened at Huron Park, accord-
ing to Hon. Chas. S. MacNaugh-
ton., Huron IyIPP and Provincial
Treasurer.
, The laboratory, on the cam-
pus of the Centralia College of
Agricultural Technology, will
serve all or part of eight coun-
ties in Southwestern Ontario.
When the laboratory first was
proposed several years ago con-
sideration was given to Seaforth
as a site and several represent-
ations were made to the Minis-
ter at that time.
"The counties of Oxford, Mid-
dlesex, Perth, Huron, Norfolk,
Bruce, Lambton and part
Waterloo produce a third of the'
poultry, hogs and cattle and h f
of the turkeys in Ontario," says
Dr. T. J. Pridham,- head of the
new laboratory.
Dr. Pridham said that the
laboratory will provide a diag-
nostic and consultative service
for farmers and veterinarians
in the area.
Farmers may bring poultry
directly ' to the laboratory. Any
other domestic animals handled
by the laboratory will be refer-
rals from a veterinarian. The
laboratory receives blood, urine
and whatever other samples are
ecessary for analysis.
"The laboratory is ,set up to
perform services over. and above
what a veterinarian can do in
his office," says Dr. Pridham.
"If a veterinarian needs assist-
ance with a disease problem, he
will refer an -animal: to the la-
boratory for analysis."
The Huron Park Laboratory
is equipped to carry out tests in
bacteriblogy, parasitology, path-
ology, hematolOgy, serology'and
clinical chemistry. The results
of these tests help to determine
the proper course of treatment..
Test results are recorded by
the laboratory and sent back to
the veterinarian, or to the owner
in cases of poultry.Sometimes
the laboratory will perform' a
necropsy for a veterinarian to
confirm the exact reason for an
animal's death. A complete me-
dical diagnosis requires examin-
ation of visible symptoms as well
as tests done on a microscopic
level.
The laboratory's function is
primarily a diagnostic one, but
investigational research projects
are also carried out.

The subcompact Gremlin from
American Motors. Styling, comfort,
performance, reliability, price; all are
the result of:ar intensive study_of the
small car buyer's requirement's. And
Gremlin meets andRceeds every
requirement.
(
Take styling. The long hood,
upswept roofline and slant-back
configuration all combine to put a
wedge to the wind. This, coupled with
Gremlin's wide-track stance, gives
outstanding stability even in cross
winds.
Models. Two, Gre,mlin comes in a
two-passenger or four-passenger
version. The four-passenger version ,
features a rear seat which folds flat to
, provide additional storage space when
required.
- Engines. Two. A standard 128 hp
Six. An optiohal 145 hp Six. Power
and plenty of it for the North
,American road. Moreover, road tests -
demonstrate fuel economy of up to
27 miles per gallon. Multiply that by
the 17 gall n fuel tank and you'll get a
good idea remlin's operational
range.
Transmissions. Three. A 3-speed
column mounted shift is standard
with the 128 hp engine. A 3-speed floor
shift is standard with the 145 hp
engine. A column.mourited automatic
is optional with either engine.1
Interiors. Ample. Getting inside a
Gremlin is a rewarding experience,
because everything inside is so
familiar to the driver accustomed to
North American. cars. Room, comfort,
convenience. It's all there.
Options. Unlimited. You'll find
more than 40 items to plit more fun,
more power or more styre in your •
driving. Along with the engine and the
-transmission options, there are;
special axle ratios; power steering;
power brakes; air conditioning; a roof
luggage rack; g push button radio;
a lift-up rear window and bucket
seats, to name but a few.
Maintenance. Simple. Because of
the long hood, the engine compart-
ment boasts exceptional working
room. Spark plugs, distributor,
carburetor and fan belts are easily
accessible. Front fenders bolt on.
They can be removed and replaced
quickly.
Taken in total. Gremlin is a very
remarkable little car and presents to
the small car buyer a valid alternative
to the glut of imported cars currently
on the market. See it for yourself at an
American Motors Dealer. Form a first
hand opinion of a North American
subcompact. The first.
