Match this, you other 69's. • Should we have made the '69 Caprice shorter? Or adorned,• it with flashy nicknacks?

Who needs to say `announcing' or `new' or 'better.' Just look how the '69 Hugger hang together. Not a line that isn't leaning into the wind. We've improved the interior, too. Quieted the ride. And made the Astro Ventilation ventilate even better. No wonder the other sportsters are gnashing their gears. If somebody else made a car like this '69 Chevelle, we'd be worried. Think of the '69 Chevelle as 'concentrated Chevrolet.' It's got Big Chevrolet features, but a naturally active personality all its own.

Later in World War II, General •Sir Frederick :Pile described him as "probably the beet and most scientific gunner in any army in the world." Currie persuaded. McNaughton to remain in the Army at war's end. As. Chief of General Staff between wars, he waged a constant battle to keep at least .a trained nucleus of the Army in existence, a disheartening experience in the faee of the apathy and hostility politicfaris and their cheeseparing attitude towards defence, He inanaged it by getting Departments other than Defence to pay the cost,Of flying operations, Signals' work in the North and for defence PrejeCtS POMPleted under Unemployment Relief, Perhaps his greatest contribution was. TCA, invaluable for the Air Force as well as for Civil flying, which he built as a relief project during the Depression. He then went to the National Research Council as President, the top scientific post in Canada, to prepare the country industrially for war. Hindsight has little disputed the McNaughton was a genius. In 1923, he was the co inventor of the cathode ray'direction finder, the direct forerunner of radar. He found time to do the calculations for "a proper dimension for a St. Lawrence Waterway" and it was on these that the Seaway was built. He brought surveying methods up to date and had much to do with the mapping of the North. At NRC, his contemporaries reported that they had difficulty in keeping up with his `far-ranging mind,' when he was preparing the institution for the great part it played in the war and reconstruction periods. At the outbreak of World War II, Mackenzie King selected 1VIcNaughton to command the overseas troops. He built and commanded the First Canadian :AMY hut OPliviilg that "the tleid, test of sovereignty is the eoptrol of the armed forces," he Violently oppoSbd the Government's policy of splitting the army and sending a corps to fight in, Italy under British command.. He left the army at the end of 1943 and returned to qanada where his ,involvement in the conscription crisis as Minister of National Defence made him an even more controversial figure. He pulled back the detached corps from. Italy and brought the army together again. McNaughton was appointed Canadian Head of the Permanent Joint Board on Defence and contributed greatly to the equal partnership between Canada and the United States in the defence of North America, At the same time be was Canadian Representative on the United Nations 'Atomic Energy Commission and also the Security Council. Side by side with this he was President of the Atomic Energy Control Board of Canada. On leaving the United Nations in 1950, McNaughton was appointed Chairman of the Canadian section of the International Joint Commission which deals with boundary water problems. A major achievement in this field was the St. Lawrence Seaway which 1VIcNaughton , more than any other, made, an accomplished fact. In the Columbia River battle with the United States, which McNaughton considered Canada lost, he obtained millions of dollars in "downstream benefits" which might not have been obtained without him: More important, he made Canadians aware of their resources. Andrew IVIeNaughtort was it "passionate patriot" VliOSP overriding purpose in life WAS the welfare of his country.
