He is a vital part of what has accurately been de- scribed as the greatest economic influence towards rais- ing living standards the world has ever knoxm. Simple statistics tell their own story: in one week the U.S. alone produces and their dealers distribute and service more cars than Russia does in a whole year. Cars that offer their buyers a choice of style and quality is laughable to try and compare. Auto dealers operate on an average profit of less than 2 percent of sales, a figure that compares favorava with mass volume food store chains. The result is that only the efficient survive. Many don't. The number of dealers declined 40 per- cent since 1950. But these dealers are selling and size has meant operation savings which the public gets through fierce competition. Auto dealers are among the highest tax payers in their community and greatest contributor to charitable causes â€" a fact sometimes forgotten by citizens who shop out of their own area. At no charge. dealers last year provided high schools with 90 percent of the vehicles used In driver training. without which most schools could not operate this course.

This will be the single biggest Weekend (Friday, Saturday and Sun- day) for softball in Ontario for 1970 and the action will all be happening in Richmond Hill. Starting tomorrow (Friday) at 7 pm a total of 13 teams from various corners of the province will start knocking heads in the OASA All-Ontario Elimination Tournament to decide who will partici- pate in the Allâ€"Canadian Tournament in Edmonton later on this summer. Pressure will be the thing all the teams will have going for or against them and don’t bet your last peso that the team with the strongest lineup will win it. The ability to stand up to pressure doesn't necessarily walk hand in hand with ability. And facing that initial pressure will be The Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers who will be kicking off the tournament at 7 pm against Seven-Up Shopsy’s of The Beachee Majpr_Fastball League. What follows here is strictly my own, undoubt- edly prejudiced but hopefully not blind assessment of the Jewellers’ chances. I might add that there’s all the likelihood in the world that I don’t know what Why? For the simple reason that Manager Russell “Casey†'Cripps has gone out and unabash- edly assembled what amounts to an “all-star†lineup consisting of the best players in the Metro Toronto area which. you’ll agree, is a big area. No bones about it, he came to win. I’m talking about. That's why I myselfi A Without even knowing the strength of all the 12 opposing teams I would have to say that my opinion the Jewellers have to be favorites. Some of these players (like Domik, Drennan, Downing. O‘Neill. Hancock, Boyne, Small, etc.) have ‘been with him for two or three or more seasons. Others like Bob Smith, Derek Kinnersly, and Gary Jodrelvl are products of the Beaches League of last season and all are top players. In other words, on paper (that horrible often mis- leading word) the Jewellers haven’t got a weak spot. Most lineups have three or four dangerous clubbers with the bottom three or four more or less weak stickers. They hope the big hitters come up at the right time. Not so the Jewellers. Every man in the start- ing lineup (including especially Pitcher Domik who can be the most devastating of all with his drives when he's hot) can break up the ballgame. To run quickly down a recent lineup: Hancock, Kinners- 1y, Small, Downing, Boyne, O’Neill, Smith, Dickey, Domik. Can you find a really weak spot, hitting or otherwise in that line up? To go a step further, Dynes have not only power but speed as well which is a rather unusual combin- ation. How many teams can boast a combination of speedsters like Kinnersly, Hancock, O’Neill and Dickey? Wager not too many. Pitching“? I think you’ll find it a difficult if not impossible chore to locate a two-man pitching combination the like of Domik and Drvennan. Sure, (Continued on Page 14) 6 cyl., automatic transmission, radio.

YONGE ST.I MILE NORTH OF RICHMOND HILL Popular Imported Cars Magazine discovers Dalsun 1600 How do first-time Datsun drivers react when they take the remarkable Datsun 1600 sedan out on the road? This is a typical reaction by a man who really knows cars. Alex Walordy said this when he set out to thor- oughly test the 1600 for POpular Imported Cars Magazine: “It is virtually impossible to shake the Datsun sedan from the road. You just comer faster and faster, and yet the rear just hangs on without a trace of breakaway. We took our little machine out to the Orange County Raceway where Bob Bon-durant was running a sedan class driving School and wrung it out for all it was worth. You can drift, and with a little trick work on the brakes and steering, a slide can be made just momentarily, but then it doggedly regains its road grip. All this, mind you, was with a pleasantly cushioned suspension. and a steering which is always responsive to your wishes. Ride with one wheel on rough pavement and there is no trace of fight or kick. Go through a series of sharp evasive man- oeuvres and the steering wheel promptly returns to centre any time you let go of it." “One by-product of the independent rear suspension is that traction on a wet road is completely even. unlike that of a car with a straight axle housing where the right rear tends to lighten up more than a left rear.†On safe brakes . . .
