SAA THE OSHAWA TIMES, Friday, December 9, 1966 Ss DELTA 88 CUSTOM HOLIDAY COUPE ... Strato-bucket Seats Are Standard OTTAWA (CP). -- Circum- navigation of King William Is- land in the Canadian Arctic by the coast guard icebreaker Camsell was one of the high- lights of Canadian coast guard operations in the Arctic during 1966. / The. Camsell, based at Vic- toria, made its regular summer trip along the Arctic coastline as far east as Shepherd Bay and Spence Bay. Then it turned north into James Ross Strait and Franklin Strait. ' Sept. 5 the Camsell steamed into Bellot Strait, sometimes re- garded as the gateway between the eastern and western Arctic. The ship, commanded by Capt. J. A. Strand, then turned back New Eldorado Cadillac Has New Exclusive Design The luxurious Cadillac line, completely restyled for 1967 and featuring the new Eldorado with its own exclusive design, provides three series of cars with twelve body styles. Gen- eral Motors of Canada an- nounced today. Important new safety features are standard en all models as well. Cadillac for 1967 features.the Calais series which comes in a sedan, hardtop sedan and coupe; the de Ville series in gedan, hardtop sedan, coupe and convertible: the Fleetwood, including the Fleetwood Sixty special sedan, Fleetwood Brougham, Seventy-Five sedan and Seventy-Five limousine; and the new front wheel drive Eldorado coupe. While unquestionably Cadil- lac-inspired, styling theme of the standard line is dramatic- ally different. Eldorado, too, is in the Cadillac tradition, but has its own design distinct from the rest of the Cadillac line. On standard models, tradi- tional Cadillac flavor is main- tained with' the cross-hatch grille design and_ vertically- stacked twin headlamps but a broad, bold look is achieved with wider spacing of the grille elements. Cadillac dimensions are un- changed but a new silhouette gives the car a longer appear- ance and a powerful, 'horizontal design line, sweeping the en- tire length of the car, empha- sizes sculptured look. A _ distinctive new roof structure is exclusive to two-and four-door hardtop models. : Cadillac bumper and tail light configuration is entirely new and all lighting functions are housed in the vertical bumper outers which provide positive night - time Cadillac identification. CRISP STYLE The new five-passenger' El- dorado has crisp, tailored lines, with long hood, distinctive roof, and a short rear deck. This new personal, luxury car offers a youthful, yet dignified appear- ance, with roof design remin-| iscent of a formal opera coupe and full-wheel openings that give it a sporty spirit. ; Front ventpipes are elimina- ted to aid the clean-appearing side view and rear windows slide back into the roof struc- ture. extends along the from front to rear. Eldorado has the traditional Cadillac cross-hatch grille front. Concealed twin ihead- lamps, rigidly mounted behind loer body the outer ends of the grille, | are revealed when the vacuam- operated grille covers swing down. Apples Seen Good Buy For Next Few Weeks OTTAWA (CP) -- If you're! sinking some of the family | budget into fruit, apples will be a good buy for the next few) weeks. There are lots around this year, though the crop wasn't quite as big as last fall. An apple can afford to be smug, because it's got so many good things about it. A medium one only has about 70 calories. It cleans your teeth and its stimulating juices and bulk aid your digestion. If your family handles lots of apples, the bushel or half-bushel basket is usually a -better buy | than the smaller plastic bags. The bags should be stored in the refrigerator, the baskets in| a cold storage room at about) 40 degrees. The daddy of all Canadian apples is the McIntosh, which} began in 1811 as a wild apple} tree on the farm of John Mc- Intosh at Dundela, Ont., just south of Ottawa. Today 40 per cent of our crop are McIntosh, and 25 other va- length and provides a JAKARTA, Indonesia (Reut- ers) -- Big business has got at the beautiful hair which Java- nese girls wear with pride.

Sometimes women will only part with a little hair at a time. Young girls cut off their plaits for some candy or a few rupiahs (pennies). Once gathered in, the hair is cleaned, graded and packed into bundies to be air-freighted to Hong Kong factories. A few months ago, prices soared to something like $14 for one pound of hair. Now the prices have settled to about $11 a pound.
