by the people whocame later and
the Post Office Department had its
final say by attaching North to
distinguish it from another.
Eureka, most prosperous town
on upper San Juan Ridge had to
be attached to South because of
the town in Humboldt County:
Income In Nevada County Reported As low
State Controller Alan Cranston's annual report on the average income for personal income
tax purposes indicates that Nevada
County and other Northern Sierra
counties are close to the poorest
income area in the state.
The North Sierra Area, which
includes Lassen, Modoc, Nevada,
Plumas and Sierra Counties, bad
an average adjusted gross income
reported to the state of $7,209.
Siskiyou County was the only
county in the state to report a
lower average $6,927, although
the North Sierra Area average was
only $84 under the average noted
for the South Sierra Area of the
state. :
The commission approved two
subdivision tentative maps which
will add 50 acres to the burgeoning Prosser Lake Heights subdivision near the new reservoir north
of Truckee, When completed,
the subdivision will cover 760
acres, Improvements are being
financed through a recently-established special assessment district.
Take your first look at the first CHEVELLE!
New Chevelle Malibu Super Sport Coupe—one of 11 models in three great series.
You’ve never seen anything like this totally new
line of cars before. Chevelle is new in everything but
Chevrolet quality. Chevelle is a good foot shorter
than the big cars, so it parks easily. Yet the interior
dimensions of its Body by Fisher provide a generous
amount of head, leg and shoulder room. (Chevelle’s
trunk is big and roomy, too.) The ride is surprisingly smooth with a rugged coil spring at all
four wheels. And not so surprisingly for Cheyrolet, THERE'S 5 iN
the new Chevelle offers a choice of engines ranging
from an economical 120-hp 6 to a 220-hp V8
(optional at extra cost.) Choose the Chevelle you
like best from:the three series—the Malibu Super___
Sport, the Malibu and the 300 Series, eleven models .
in all—at your Chevrolet dealer’s. (Like this goodlooking Malibu Super Sport, maybe?)
