Some people will go to a lot of trouble to get a car that's just a bit different, and a Los Angeles businessman named Stau Siotkin was one of them—he really was. Somehow, he's not saying just how, he managed to smuggle a new Russian Pobeza, a four -door sedan, out of the USSR. The Russians probably thought it was his small English car that was boxed in a crate and loaded on a ship in Helsinki, Finland. • Slotkin paid $1,500. plus tax and the shipping charges to get Kis "different" car to Los Angeles. But when he drove it down the street, no oue gave him a glance. The car looked just like a 1939 American car, with the body style and dash- board borrowed from one maker and the grille work from another. The tires evea had the same tread as a well-known. make. Slotkin probably had fun and I hope it was worth the money. Finding a car that's different is fun, and of course the place to find such a wide range of cars, old and new, that you're bound to see the "difference" you want is—you've guessed it—right on our lot. Sorry, we're temporarily out of Pobezas. Next week I want to tell you how to choke a car—so the bills won't choke you.

A Prediction that the ?Losable River Conservation Authority will take over Lake Smith and pre- serve it as a •wild life sanctuary was made last week hy Andrew Dixon, Exeter representative on the Authority and chairman of the public relations advisory board. Speakiag to Exeter Kinsmen Friday night, Mr. Dixon said this project might be the next for the Authority after the Pinery park had been coMPleted. He predict- ed action would be taken with- in rive years, "The Authority would like to buy Lake Smith, prohibit shoot- ing in the area, and encourage wild life," the con,servationist stated. Like the jack Minor sanc- tuary, it would be developed into a "wonderful" tourist resort. "It would serve the area a lot 'better that way than it would growing onions." The lake, laeated south of Grand Bend in Bosanquet town- ship, is now being drained by its owner Dr. L. C. 'Hagmeier for cultivation purnoses, It covers several hundred .acres and thous- ands of wild ducks, geese and swan stop over on the lake dur- ing their migration- north. Mr. Dixon said there is still some question over the owner- ship of the lake. The original grant of land to the Canada Cora- pany did not include Lake ,Smith and, unless some further nego- tiations were made, the Canada Company did not have the right to sell the lake to the present owner.
