THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 1966
J. Wellingthrip Pomerish III
beat the Dodge Boys
We have a standing bet that if anyone really
shops around for a new car and compares style,
performance, and price, he'll buy a Dodge.
J. Wellingthrip took us up on it, but he didn't buy
a Dodge. He bought a
Rolls. Told us his
family has never
bought anything else.
Okay, we lost that one.
But now it's truck
time at the Dod ge
Boys, and we'll bet
J. Wellingthrip that if he intends to buy any type
of truck (something to haul his polo ponies
around in), he'll buy a Dodge. We'll offeryou the
same bet.
