OCR: JOE PIKE From April 1960 until his re- tirement in 1976, Joe Pike was editor of Corvette News and in charge of Corvette sales promo- tion. For those 16 years, he was one of the Corvette's main spiri- tual leaders. As the regional orga- nization manager in Denver, he coordinated the National Council of Corvette Clubs and pioneered the Continental Divide Rally. His dedication caught Ed Cole's eye, and Pike was soon working at the Chevrolet Central Office. He was named assistant merchandising manager, promoting Corvettes with enthusiasm and devotion.
