Yankees Beat Indians For 15th In Row NiEW YORK UP — Joe DiMaggio says his old Yankee" team mates should win the pennant by 15 games, but the way they’re going they might even top the record margin of 19% for the American League set by the Bronx Bombers in his rookie year of 1936. They were 7% in front today, rolling relentlessly in a 15-'ganie winning streak, the latest of whkh. was a 4-2 victory over the alleged contenders from Cleveland Friday night. That “come from behind ”- triumph over the runner-up Indians made it four in a row the Yankees have won from them without defeat. / Their first place margin, widest they ever have enjoyed in their five years under Manager ‘shascy Stengel, was established with the season not even a third completed. Should they continue to dominate the league at their present; pace, they could finish better than 20 in front, exceeding even DiMaggio’s optimistic prediction.

Drivers To Blame For Accidents On Highways
By JACK SCHREIBMAN
(Daily Democrat Reporter) (Synopsis: You’ve read stor- * lek like theaeAbefore. They try *'to cut dowrf on the accidents by pointing the finger at the ones <o blame. The articles written in the past have apparently failed or fallen short, because people are still killing themselves and others bn the road and the accident rate is way up in the stratosphere. We may fail, too, but we've got to keep trying. Can anyone who claims to be fairly intelligent be quiet in the wake of the unspeakable slaughter going on in our county, let alone elsewhere? I think not. The abominably stupid wretches who are given the privelige to drive by the grace of the state laws and a full wallet and continually violate statute. after statute,’ law after law, should be dragged oflf the road like the potential murderers they are. Mastery of the power so neatly packed beneath the hood of your car is the mark of the good driver. < Less than total masteryi leaves behind it —as poipe of you well know—a trail marked with torn fenders, high bills, bumps and bruises and sometimes tall explaining to your insurance man why his company should carfy you . ; . if you are lucky, this is. In Adams county 10 men and women >’ere not so lucky this year. They are dead v and gone, ■ veritably murdered, by their own fblly or someone else's. ! (There is no intention here cf setting an “example.” as such, of the accident'victims, but so that they may not have died in vain, w e draw lessons—and hope to stay alive.) L New Years was only 37 days past when a life was violently snuffed out on a dark country road. And the slaughter had begun. By ones and twos and threes they left this ■world, through the negligence of one party or the other. Cars collided on open roads, they rolled over because of inability to cope with emergency situations. One) rammed a stationary object. Another came about through a (foolhardy about whose car epuig go the faster. It was decided whose car could go the faster. But bets were not collected that dark night in Adams county road history. A pedestrian was mauled and ■battered J beyond recognition on another night, and serves notice on all -who may harbor doubts as to th© destructive power they wield so casually day jin and day out. No matter how clear the reports may seem to be; no matter with W’hat certainly the police give out their trite, cold reports—no one can say exactly what happened at each of the slaughters. The. questiqn that should be uppermost—and the one asked all too infrequently—is “cbuld ft have been prevented?” Could society have done more for these poor people, by showing them, teaching them of the grim spectre that crawls in beside the driver when the starter begins to rev? if you think so then there is still some hope of curing the disease. There are certainly symptoms enough. Can the parents do anything to help, we ask? Do they blithely refuse to see the mistakes of their children and protect them from punishment they deserve? These questions are for you to answer, ■ not any one man. It’s a collective thing we speak of here. Ope man alone who drives with some sanity is no good at the hands of a host of speed-happy individuals iwho say it can’t happen to them, and then go out and take the safe ones, the ones who admitted it could happen, to a rending, bloody death. The dead ones have met ignominious ends, most of them on dark road®, unsuspecting. Life halts for one Infinitesimal moment, stands dumb, and then proceeds once more and dares us to learn a lesson. We haven’t learned a thing At each accident (me can observe the milling curiosity seekers who poke abotit with blank stares at the stark facts staring them in the face. They take nothing away with them. It is a thing apart. “It can’t happen to me.” And this reporter -would (like to have a
buck observer at thefco accidents who forthwith go .five miles hence and wrap up theii own' cars. Recognize anyone yen know? - - There you have had a report of the deaths in the county, discretion having forbid a closer look,'since the deceased were people you loved. ’ ‘ There is jno egriuse for a.wreck. When you're invdlved, there> something, nine 4hnes out of ten. you could have done about it.. When you read reports of wrecks it is always the car that does the damage, the ear runs out of conv trol, the cat does this and the car does thaLNot so. An automobile is hot a creature that moves about* of its own free will. It isn’t a ■wild, ferocious monster bent or.destruction. Look behind the -wheel and see what causes damage. A driver is responsible for every movement of his car. Every inch it moves is 'by the grace of the driver, his toot arid his hand, b;s; brain and his will. Likewise, every nut, bolt and gear i ;; his charge, hlf anything goes wrong in thn mechanism, it is his fault. It iis\ no defense, to say a tie rod end ■went or the brakei' failed. Speed is such an important sac- - tor in accidents—t-while not the only one—sd we should take a lock at the speed merchants, the idiots who can’t realize that speed should be reserved for the .-qcetrack. The egotist: Os all the trails of mankinds this is the one that 'causes our worst wrecks. Some have it in greater quantity thaiti others. Let’s see. what makes hrin tick. t All normal babies are self-cen-tered,* their only thought is et themselves. Fine, that\ how they signal »their'wishes rind stay alive. Growing out ‘of this stage involves the realization tljat the world does not revolve around us. We acquire social attitudes. Our boy. the egotist, has never grown up. He is an emotional baby and the worst risk on our roads. He likes to screech ins tires turning corners. People turn around. He feels he has left his mark on the world He turns without signaling. He’ cuts in too closely after, passing; stays on. the wrong side of the road; boasts of breaking traffic laws. He is a chiseler who always demands the right-of-way and tries to use influence in fixing tickets. Next <we have the show-off. He is emotionally uncontrolled and displays the sad fact that he has never grown up. He drives too fast for conditions; sticks his head out of ( the window to ogle the girls wljen underway; drives recklessly when he has an audience —the greater the audience the greater the.recklessness.
