(News-Record Photo) !Clinton's 1957-58 hockey Colts are holding their first practice at the Lions Arena on Sunday after- noon from 2 to 4 o'clock: An en- tirely new executive has been formed and have held regular meetings during the past two weeks planning and organizing for the current season, and have con- tacted prospective players. The Colts have entered in the WOAA intermediate "BP series, and are grouped with Hensall and Lucan who are "C" teams, and five horriebrew clubs--Zurich, Parkhill, Ilderton, Exeter and Forest. Doug, Thorndike, Clinton, a re- cent appointment to the WOAA executive, has• been appointed as group convener, He has called a schedule meeting for next Wednes- day evening at Clinton Legion Hall, Mr. Thorndike has been working with the new Colt exec- utive. On Sunday afternoon in Listowel Arena, a referees school will be held. Managers and coaches are also invited to attend this meet- ing. Norman Hill, New Hamburg, heads the WOAA referees assoc- iation, and has secured Jerry Olin- ski, former NHL referee, from Kitchener to instruct the referees and others attending the Listowel school on Sunday. There is a shortage of referees in the Clinton area; anyone from here with intentions of taking up officiating at hockey games, whe- ther in the minor of intermediate series, is invited to attend the in- struction school, Details of the dramatic new sty- ling and outstanding Qpgineering advances of the 1958 Chevrolet are announced by General Motors of Canada Limited, and the ear is on display here at Lorne Brown Mot- ors Ltd, Labeled "the car of the year" by newsmen and technical` writers who have attended private show- Inge, the new model was unveiled last Thursday (October 31). Also on public display for the first time is the rakish 1958 Cor- vette and the latest in the Chev- rolet truck line. The 1958 Chevrolet is nee from bumper-to-ibumPer and from frame be roof line. The all-new features include: A completely re-styled car which is longer, lower and wider and emphasizes flowing sculptured lines from the dual headlatripe to softly flared rear fenders. An X-shaped frame which al- lows silhouette but retains ample head room and increases leg room and luggage space. TWo suspension system for a more luxdrious ride along with remarkable handling, stability and durability. Sturdy coil springs, front and rear, are standard. A 348-,cubic inch engine which is new from fan to flywheel. De- signed primarily around a new combustion chamber, the optional Tueba-Thrust V-S offers greater torque for improved mid-range performance. Chassis-body design Integration to supply exceptional structural strength and greater rigidity. 1-Onward-mounted steering link- age which provides more respon- sive action and reduces road vib- ration to the steering wheel. Some idea of the fresh newness 'of the Chevrolet line is suggested by the new body groupings and 'Identification. In recognition of the growing popularity of station wagons, an exclusive five-unit series of this body type has been established. The Bel Air series is continued, but `adds among its six models e sumptuous sport coupe and con- vertible under the Impala name: plate, introduced on a "dream car" at the General Motors Motor- ama in 1956. In the middle range of the low- priced car bracket is a Byscayne series, with two sedans. The bot- tom end of the price spread will be occupied by three models mak- ing up the Delray series: In 1957 comparable series were known as Two-Ten and One-Fifty, respec- tively. Roominess and quality of the new line, says the company, will be immediately apparent. Over-all length have been exten- ded a full nine inches to a new measurement of 209 inches. The wheel base is up two and one-half inches. to 1171/2 . - Roof lines have been lowered up to 21/2 inches, yet design skill has retained ample passenger headroom. In looks, the cars have an air of liveliness. Because of the thor- oughness of the transmission, sty- lists and engineers were able to correlate their ideas into a single unit of 'bumper-to-bumper pro—. gress. Dual headlamps, a grille with fine grid concave ribs and a low, flat hood unbroken by ornamenta- tion, distinguish the frorital view. Varied two-tone color patterns, a judicious use of chrome moldings and decorative panel's give each series an individuality and' supply the latest examples of the indus- try's new art of "scuipturamic" styling. The rearward treatment also is unique, Avoiding sharp fin protrusion, rear fender lines sweep outward from the body, then curl around' •the tail light en- semble to form * a shape which stylists likened to a graceful gull- wing in flight, As optional equipMent, the com- pany additionally pioneers in its field a new "Level Air" suspension, employing for the first time rub- ber bellows at all four wheel's. Through an inter-connected air supply and exhaust system with leveling valves, this suspension as- sures precisely the 'same resis- tance to shock regardless of car load, The new Turbo-Thrust engine is still another highspot that illus- trates the magnitude of the engin- eering lob behind the 1958 Chev- rolets., Predominant is a com- pletely new combustion chamber design which assures uniform com- bustion. The new engine is one of five VS's and a six-cylinder car- ried in the new line. Ramjet fuel injection which' Chevrolet intro- duced last year, is again offered as an option on the ,283-othic inch V-8, Automatic Turboglide, Pow- erglide, an improved three-speed SynchrosIVIesh and the overdrive are again available. Totaled, Chevrolet gives the buyer his pick of 18 power trains. Goderich Township Miss Eva. Hardy and her friend Miss Gertrude Irish, Detroit, spent the weekend with EVa's 'brother, Mr. Alex Weston.

Neal Farm Fire destroyed the barn at the farm of Menne Martin early Sat- urday morning, and hay and grain filling the barn "to the peak" was lost •in the blaze. 300 chickens also lost their lives.

"We are now recognized as a National Farm Organization in Ot- tawa and are fast becoming the spokesman for Canadian Agricul- ture," said James Patterson, Chair- man of. Interprovincial Farm Un- ion Council, ,When addressing the Sixth Annual Convention of On- tario Farmers' Union in Memorial Hall, OAC Guelph, Tuesday, Octo- ber 22. Four hundred and fifty delegates were in attendance, be- ing the largest Convention to date. "Farm Unions, six or seven years ago were ridiculed and classed as radicals. It is signifi- cant that the Liberal Party now claims that they must become radical if they hope to again get on their feet," continued the speaker, "Although the past Gov- ernment ignored warning made by Farm Unions as to agriculture% fast detericirating economical pos- ition,' those conditions have be-' come prevalent and while we must give our new Government time to put their house in order, farmers must not sit idle but continue to build this grass roots organization and to' have pride in' it and them- selves," said 'Mr. Patterson. Cleve Kidd, recently elected President of Ontario Federation of Labor spoke on farmer-labeur re- lations and said that no group is so isolated that its welfare is of no concern to others. Referring to the decreased farm cash income, Mr. Kidd claimed that his labor organization was reminded that recession in one section only, soon spreads. Convention resolutions passed included one concerning the pres- ent Hog Direction System and ask- ed that before a hog vote is taken that the OFU should 'be consulted regarding the wording of the bal- lot, The Union has always sup- ported the principle of Marketing Boards but the Convention did not favor the hog assembly point sys- tem. It suggested that the Co-Op Marketing Board should sell and direct hogs straight from the far- mer's stable to the buyers. When quoting gross farm in- come, Government Departments were requested' to also quote net cash farm income as a true agri- cultural economic picture. As Ontario Federation of Agri- Culture organizations merely asked for a floor price of from 13 tole cents under skim milk powder, while OFU asked for 20 cents and the Federal Government set the price at 17 cents, the Concentrated Milk Producers Organization was requested 'to consult with Ontar- io Farmers' Union before reques- ting any floor price hereafter. That butter be allowed to find its qwn price level on the market, that the Federal Government, be asked to establish a full parity support price and that the differ- ence between the market price and the parity price should be paid direct to the cream producer through means of deficiency pay- ments, was another of the 70 reso- lutions passed by the Convention, A further resolution requested the Federal Government to include representation of Interprovincial Farm Union Council on the Can- adian delegation to be headed by Trade Minister Churchill and which will, England shortly. Positive opposition to any increase in Rural sell Telephone rates was also• unanimously supported. President A, V. Cormack repor- ted that the organization now has 300 Locals in Ontario with seven new County organizations having been established during the past year, and which organization is composed of grassroots direct dues-paying membership and truly controlled by its membership, Main achievements consist of: 1, Dynamic program of direct in- formation to farmers. 2, Terrific farmer-politieal influence as evid- enced in last Federal 'election', 3. The 17 Cent floor price on milk power and 373/2 cents equitable duty rate Imposed on all potatoes entering Canada front USA Were largely a result of OFir recom- mendation. 4, OFU can take full credit for Federal Government purchase of eggs during spring season which increased and stabil- ized egg prices. Ontario Farm Union Officials elected were: honorary president, Albert V. Corrnack, Arthur; presi- dent, Gordon L, Hill, Varna; wo- men's president, Mrs. George Prosser, Blackstock; women's fir- st vice-president, Mrs. Frank Stephens, Harwood; first' vice- president, John Hutchinson, Mark- dale; second vice-president, Walter L. Miller, Tara; junior president, Stepheh J. Stephen, Brechin. Church Parade Last Sunday The Clinton Baptist church was host to the veterans of the district on Sunday when members of Clin- ton Branch 140 Canadian Legion and the Ladies Auxiliary paraded from the Legion Hall down Victor- ia Street and Huron Street, to the church.
