Bumper-to-Bumper Newness in DeSoto The two DeSoto lines for 1955 are completely new from bumper to bumper — longer, lower, and wider, with a stylish contempo rary new “forward look” which expresses fleetness, power, and outstanding performance. These exciting new DeSoto models went on display Wednesday, November 17, at the Shierk Motor company showrooms here. Plymouths for '55 were being shown simulta neously. Both DeSoto lines, the magnifi cent new Fireflite, new leader of the DeSoto line, and the well known Firedome are powered by rew hemispherical combustion chamber V-8 engines, redesigned for increased power and per formance. These engines feature greater displacement and larger intake and exhaust valves. The Fireflite engine delivers 200 horsepower. The famous Firedome engine now delivers 185 horsepower, an increase of 15 over the previous model. Unlike many cars, both the Fireflite and Firedome engines are designed to operate efficient ly on the less expensive standard fuels, which can add up to a con siderable saving on fuel bills in a year of driving. In addition to the many new features of the bodies, from the new horizon fully wrapped around windshield, to the beauti ful color-keyed interior appoint ments, the 1955 DeSotos incorpor ate many equally important chas sis changes, according to Paul Shierk, manager. > ★ + V Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater Makes New Thanksgiving Pie The frost is on the pumpkin, and so is the coffee, according to a won dCTful new recipe for Pumpkin Chiffon Pie.
