Ford brought out its 1959 Edsel this week with a face lifting, but it carefully redesigned the whole selling pitch for its one-year-old youngster. Instead of competing with medium-priced cars, as originally planned, Edsel is now aimed at the low-priced buyer.

Most nobable among them was perhaps Mayor Phil Des-Rosiers who welcomed...
