...makeup, props, lighting effects, music, scenery, a conventional stage. He even strips away a good part of the audience, never allowing it to number over 100 and sometimes as low as 40.

General Motors is making minimal design changes. Frequently they involve nothing more fundamental than radiator grilles or other ornaments. The big Ford and Mercury models follow the same pattern. What few changes there are cater to the public's new taste for long hoods and truncated rear decks. For example, Chevrolet's lone new car, the Monte Carlo two-door sedan, measures 6 ft. from grille to windshield...
