i5 hp De Soto to pace Indianapolis “500”
spolis: A 255 horsepower 1956
i Soto has been chosen to pace the
annual running of the Indianap-
"500” mile race classic. For terrific
i light” get-away, nothing in the
iium price field even comes dose to
De Soto’s blazing high torque
take-off. The almost unbelievable power
surge of De Soto’s sizzling 255 hp en-
gine makes passing safer, easier. A
slight nudge of the accelerator gets you
by in a hurry. Come in and teat drive
the ’56 De Soto, it’s by far the most
powerful car in the medium price field.

Into the armed forces, there can
be no question of the need for
the continuance of USO,” said
Rev. William C. Demarest, Coun-
ty Campaign Chairman. "We are
continuing to strengthen our
military outposts around the
globe and we must see to it.that
wherever our fighting forces go,
the USQ must go too."
"USO now has 232 units op-
erating in areas of greatest
need, both in this* country and
overseal," said Rev. Demarest.
"And 18 of these are right here
in out' state. But there is still
an urgent need for more USO
services, and it is up to us to
help provjje them."
Quoting. President Eisenhow-
er’s declaration, prior to "the Ko
rean Armistice. ”... even if
peace comes, don’t let anyone
tell you the need for USO will
be lessened—it will then be
even greater." Rev. Demarest em-
phasized that our own county’s
participation in this campaign
is an essential, element in our
National Defense Program.
