...There were other visual distractions: a colored tableau showing a large violin walking on spindly legs and stretching an arm toward a piano gushing milk, a blind man sitting before a television set, a beef carcass hanging above the singers' heads with a trumpet fixed horizontally over its rear, a procession of eight actors who dropped armfuls of china as a crashing accompaniment...

Ford. Ford's new "intermediate" car (about the same size as standard sedans of the late 40s, though with more interior space) is the Fairlane. Styled along familiar Ford lines with large round taillights, flat rear deck and small canted fins, the Fairlane has a six-cylinder engine, will be produced initially in only two models-a two-door and a four-door sedan. For the pizazz lover, Ford will bring out, in addition to its regular four-seater Thunderbird, a Thunderbird sports roadster. Equipped with wire wheels and a dashboard "assist bar" for nervous passengers to hang...

For the man who wants the look but not the leak of a convertible, the F85 and the 88 feature a sheet-metal roof contoured like a cloth top, even to the ripples that lend the illusion of a metal frame supporting sagging fabric...

American Motors. The once boxy Ambassador and Classic now have sleek, sculptured roof lines and rounded-off rear fenders and trunk. Except for minor trim, the low-priced American is outwardly unchanged, but it offers an optional "E-stick" gearshift that enables the driver to change gears without a clutch and costs only one-third as much as an automatic transmission...
