First sight of the autos drew appreciative comment from al- most all, and in one case, an eudible whistle of admiration. The entire line, from Corvair to Oldsmobile, is clearly stamp- ed this year, with a definite General Motors family look. If} anyone were to look for a sire in the background, it would not be hard to single out the Buick Riviera. GM's new wares are stripped of extensive side sculpture and chrome trim. In their place is a clean, uncluttered look which first saw the light of day, a year ago in Buick division's 'personalized car." SWEPT-BACK Throughout the two-door mod- els at least, this theme is capped by a swept-back roofline which has already been dubbed, in- correctly, a "'fast-back." The GM cars look racy. But a clearly definable rear deck dis- qualifies them, in any auto Stylist's book, from the fast-back label. There was a show-stopper at yesterday's preview, and this, despite a lineup of startlingly handsome automobiles.

We arranged for him to } jattend clinic at Toronto General Hospital where the surgeons decided some reconstructive surgery would help. While in the hospital the De- partment of Health rehabilita- tion officers became interested in him and gave him more busi- ness training to prepare him for a "sit-down job." On discharge from the hos- pital he returned to Oshawa Business College and finished his course under the sponsorship of the Ontario County Rehabili- tation Council and Provincial Rehabilitation Services, and then Mr. Hanson went in busi- ness for himself and the Oshawa Stenography Centre came into being. A few months later the March of Dimes was called into the picture because the little busi- ness was in financial difficulty. Arrears in payments on equip- ment and supplies were brought up to date and some extra work diverted to him and Mr. Hanson go° along fine until 1962. An accident in May of that year put him essentially out of circulation until September and though friends were wonderful --once again debts had piled u Pp.
