Maybe you think the higher you go in the air, the colder it gets.
The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, after research,
finds perpetual# hot layers In the otherwise cold atmosphere. As
chart above shows, there is a 170-degree hot zone extending from
about 158,000 feet to over 200.000 leet. Above this, the air grows
colder, dropping to below zero temperatures at about 215,000 feet.
It then grows hot, reaching boiling point at 400,000 feet, present
limit of investigation. Center line marked “Standard” represents
probable average temperature, and serves as a basis for new con-
struction techniques to permit aircraft operation in the torrid zones.

Here's our picture for ’47!
We are proud to present for 1947, the finest car
Pontiac has ever produced.
In the new 1947 Pontiac, now in production, all
of Pontiac’s traditional quality, dependability,
stamina, trouble-free operation, ease of handling
and downright goodness have been retained.
These qualities have made more than a million
friends of more than a million Pontiac owners.
Added for 1947 are appearance changes to en-
hance Pontiac's beauty; mechanical improve-
ments to uphold Pontiac’s known reputation for
dependable and trouble-free performance.
Pontiac again offers two outstanding series in
ten body types. The Streamliner is on the 122-
inch wheelbase; the Torpedo on a 119-inch
wheelbase. Each is available as a Six or an Eight.
Millions of people have learned to expect an out-
standing value from Pontiac . . . and the 1947
Pontiac fulfills their expectations in every way.
The 1947 Pontiac is a fine car made finer.
