Developed cooperatively with the General Motors Research Staff, the Turbo-Titan contains an experimental 200-horsepower engine, examined here by Chevrolet's Chief Engineer H. P. Barr, left, and W. A. Turenen, head of GM's gas turbine research.

AUTO CLUB MOTORLOG
Las Vegas! Sun, Swimming, Skiing,
Scenic Sights, Swanky Supper Clubs
(The following motorlog is one of a series prepared by the Automobile Club of Southern California.)
Whether you want to stand pat in the sun, nightclub in formal attire or cavort in levis, Las Vegas is a good bet.
The desert city, which has become to this country what Monte Carlo is to Monaco, has also gained fame for another reason. For this little city, which started life as a humble meadow, is now considered "Top Banana" as an entertainment center. In the winter season, particularly, it's not at all unusual for the visitor to have his choice of seeing any one of a dozen "big-name" performers in hotels along the "Las Vegas Strip."
However, in addition to this kind of fun — and the usual sporting facilities — there are also outstanding attractions for sightseers and anglers.
Within 30 minutes of the city, one can drive to mighty Hoover (Boulder) Dam, the highest in the world. Open for inspection daily, it is truly one of the West's great scenic attractions.
Another superlative that Las Vegas boosters see fit to use applies to Lake Mead, reputedly the largest man-made body of water in the world. Its 550 miles of shoreline, under the supervision of the National Park Service and Bureau of Reclamation, offer many fine beaches and camping and trailer sites. The lake also is open for bass fishing all year.
The Valley of Fire is still another attraction for sightseers. Driving to Crystal, about 35 miles northwest of Las Vegas on US 91, one may then travel some 20 miles.

The lake also is open for bass fishing all year.
The Valley of Fire is still another attraction for sightseers. Driving to Crystal, about 35 miles northeast of Las Vegas on US 91, one may then travel some 29 miles through a scenic wonderland which not only affords dazzling panoramas but also bears records of the earliest civilization known in North America.
Winter sports enthusiasts also have something to look forward to in the Spring Mountains area embracing Kyle and Lee Canyons, about a 40-mile trip northwest of Las Vegas.
One of the nicest things about the trip to Las Vegas is the drive itself, for the highways leading to this resort city are excellent. Driving from San Bernardino, one proceeds northerly along US 66 and 91 to Barstow. The route then courses in a northeasterly direction on US 91, passing Baker, crossing the state line and leading directly to Las Vegas, the trip being 230 miles.
Motorists starting from Los Angeles can figure on a six to seven-hour drive.
EPECTACULAR—Only 30 miles from Las Vegas Is Highest in the world. It supplies water for Lake Mead, largest man-made body of water in the world.
SUN FUN—Las Vegas visitors will find swimming pools at most of the city's hotels and motels and probably find them just as nice as the one pictured here.
8 p.m. at the Farm Bureau hall in Orange. R. A. Schott will conduct the meeting. Reports of counties will be heard during the business session with a review of pending legislation affecting the rabbit industry will be given. Wm. Staiger will give a talk on The Rabbit Industry As I See as the principal talk at the meeting. The Orange County rabbit Department will be represented at the session. Refreshments will be served at the conclusion of the business meeting.
About 6,000 miles of roads and right-of-ways, in Imperial County have been sprayed to control beet leafhopper.

Clergymen May File Now for Social Security
Clergymen who want to have the protection of Old-Age Survivors Insurance must file a waiver certificate not later than April 15, 1957, according to a statement made today by Ralph A. Dillman, district manager of the Santa Ana Social Security office.
"Under the 1954 Amendments to the Social Security Act" stated Dillman, "it is now possible, on an individual elective basis, for duly ordained, commissioned or licensed clergymen, Christian Science Practitioners and certain members of religious orders to acquire age-old survivors insurance protection on the same terms as self-employed persons even though they may not actually be self-employed."
There are two necessary steps that a clergyman wishing to participate in this Federal insurance program must take. First, he must get a social security account number card from his social security office if he does not already have one. He must then file a waiver certificate, Form 2031, with the District Director of Internal Revenue indicating his desire to be covered as a self-employed person without involving in any way the church or religious group by whom he is actually employed. Copies of this form may be obtained from the
1955 and 1956. April 15, 1956, the absolute deadline for the waver certificate. If not filed by that date, he forfeits his right to elicitation.
"Once he has elected covered" continued Dillman clergyman must continue port his earnings and pay social security tax for event in which he has net earn $400 or more from service formed in the exercise of ministry whether perform an employee or as a self-elected person. The church institution which the clergy serves or represents does any way become involved ligated in these arrangements.

"Mother" Smith Day at Casa Colina March 17
In honor of its co-founder and executive director for its first 14 years of operation, Casa Colina Convalescent and Rehabilitation Center for Crippled Children in Chino, will hold its 5th annual "Mother" Smith Day on Sunday, March 17 from 4 to 8 p.m.
On this day, the young patients, ex-patients, staff and volunteer friends of the unique, specialized hospital combine efforts and talents, extending an open invitation to the public, making the observance a really festive occasion.

The patients will convert the Occupational Therapy department into a game room with carnival-type booths and other novelty attractions. In addition, there will be a bazaar featuring the sales of unusual plants, linen goods, cakes and pastries.
Frances Eleanor "Mother" Smith was, at the time of her death in 1952, one of Pomona valley's leading humanitarians. Because of her many past accomplishments, she was named the American Mother of 1936. Even after this recognition, representing years of tireless work for community betterment, "Mother" Smith then dedicated her remaining years to the establishment and progress of a greatly needed facility to meet the needs of crippled children. Casa Colina opened its doors to these less-fortunate children of the world, on October 1, 1938, and has played a major role in the rehabilitation of over 1,000 children, crippled from disease or accident. Today, the institution is widely known for the high calibre of services and for its humanitarian policies.
