Thunderbird will be pizazzier than ever, and is shrouded in such secrecy that industry sources predict a big "surprise." The intermediate Mercury Meteor is essentially the same body shell as the Fairlane, with dual headlights and tubular taillights. Lincoln, in keeping with Ford policy of styling continuity over four-year periods, is making only minor trim and grille changes...
Although it cannot prevent the frequent droughts that parch the high plains, the Weather Bureau has learned their meteorological causes and, to a degree, how to predict them. Like most major weather events in mid-latitudes, they can be blamed on the planetary wind that circulates around the temperate zone at high altitude. Its general motion is west to east, but it often veers to the north or south in great horizontal waves. In the bends of the waves are "ridges" of high pressure and "troughs" of low pressure, which affect the movement of the winds on the earth...

On the Federal Reserve Board's production index, industrial output for May hit 108% of the 1957 base-three points above April and six above the recession low in February. And Washington economists predict that in June the index will rise to within a point or two of the alltime high of 111% set in January...
