11 "'l'W 11 ’.'.l 'WI ■ ■ State Police Urge Careful Driving Indianapolis, May 28 — Memorial day holiday travelers were urged to drive defensively over the extended weekend by state police Supt. [Arthur M. Thurston. . Start early, drive at the prevailing 1 speeds, and be courteous, he urged. The long . weekend at the start of the summer vacation period and the heavy influx of visitors into the state to witness the 50®mlle race will make driving extremely hazardous unless caution is exercised, he predicted. Seven persons were killed in the three-day holiday period last year. Thurston attributed the low number of' fatalities to the fact that the holiday came in the middle of the week. This year four days, Thursday through, Sunday, will be included in the tally. 0 7 0 i Modem Etiquette ] I BY ROBERTA LEE \ t p i I Q. What is the correct way to eat baked potatoes? .I A.
