The American Legion Magazine [Volume 58, No. 4 (April 1955)] SEAGRAM-DISTILLERS COMPANY, N E V/ YORK CITY^ BLENDED VVH.SKEY. 86.8 PROOF 65% GRAIN NEUTRAL SPIRITS. ROAD BIRDS ... a series hy Ethyl Corporation THE Darting Soad Runner This Road Bird gets his name from the way he darts in and out of traffic lanes. A truck coming the other way doesn't even ruffle his feathers... and he never looks behind when he suddenly hops back into line. THE Smart Bird makes sure the road is clear ahead before he starts to pass. And he keeps one eye on the mirror when he moves back into his lane. The Smart Bird also plays safe with his engine. He uses premium gasoline. Premium gasoline's higher octane rating protects against engine knock and overheating. And it gives extra power for quicker, safer passing. It's smart to use gasoline ETHYL pimmm CORPORATION a Vol. 58; No. 4; April, 1955 SPINNING i »^ .1 THE AMERICAN .
