I I • • • • • •Shape of Things To Come •••••• Towering ISO feet above the countryside near Hallam, Nebraska, is Consumers Public Power District’s Sheldon Station. From this recent aerial view, the over-all growth pattern of Sheldon Station becomes readily apparent. Exterior work on the main buildings (shown at top of picture) is nearing completion. Many pieces of equipment have been set in place, Including the 100,000 kilowatt turbine-generator. Work is progressing on schedule on the installation of the nuclear re actor vessel and its containment tank. In the spring of 1961, the conventional steam facilities will “go on the line.” In 1962, production of electric power from the nuclear heat source will become an actuality. Completion of Sheldon Station will open a new era for Nebraska. The plant not only will supply a new source of needed electric power, but it will open great new potentials for economic growth.

Yet, generously endowed as this car is with spaciousness and clean-etched ele gance, it holds steadfastly to all the thrifty, dependable virtues Chevrolet buyers have come to take for granted. Your dealer’s the man to see for all the details. There’9 never been a trunk like it before! The floor’s recessed more than half a foot and the loading height is as much as 10X inches lower. ★ ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ INTRODUCING THE ’61 CHEW BISCAYNE 6 the lowest priced full-sized Chevy with big-car comfort at small-car prices!
