That is the Heater knob Patty Lou...
Have a look at this Owners manual for a 65-66 Beetle
It will be the same as Your Beetle... http://www.geocities.com/vwsite2001/
This will tell You everything You need to know about Your Beetle...
cheers

Well Pattylou,
I saw a pic of Your Beetles cabin but nothing to say how they worked..
Well: You rotate the knob Anticlockwise to bring the heater into action.. the more You turn the hotter it will get.
Please note, this only works when the engine gets HOT... which normally is only a few minutes..
Best Wishes with Your Beetle.
