1969 BEAUMONT
Beaumont for 1969 has grille and trim changes, elimination of vent windows on hardtop coupes above) and convertibles, and a new engine option. The Upper-level ventilation system introduces air to the interior through vents on each end of the instrument panel, and exhausts it through valves 04 the door posts. The absence of vent windows provides'
better visibility to the side and at the same time eliminates a major source of wind noise. The new engine option is a 360-cubic-inch V8, available with either 260 or 300 horsepower, In addition, two sixes and at other,. larger V8 are available. Three-speed Turbo Hydra. Maio is now available' with all engines; including the tikes.

By any of these criteria, the cost
of fire-causing carelessness is
great. But the most terrible toll
is in young lives. A third of those
who die by fire are children.
Some of these children die because
they are left alone, some die be-
cause they play with matches. There
are other reasons too—but virtually
all the deaths are preventable.
Children die in fires through the
ignorance or the carelessness of
their parents or other adults.
