Homemaking Tips By Miss Bertha Landis Homs Demonstration Agent Thursday, December 1, will be the secogd annual S-D Day or safe' driving day. Its purpose is to demonstrate, again, that traffic accidents can be greatly reduced when motorists and pedestrians fulfill their moral and civic responsibility for safety. It is sponsored by the president’s committee for traffic safety in cooperation with prominent national organizations. The challenge to every community will be: not a single traffic accident during the 24-hour period—in daylight or darkness. Thirty days of public educational activity will precede S-D day, with national, state and local organizations of all types joining to combat traffic accidents. Scorekeeping of fatalities will begin on November 21—S-D day minus 10 and will continue through S-D day plus 10. Reports on the cumulative result will be published by the president’s committee. Remember these rules, not only S-D day, but every day of the year: Safe driving tips: Be sportsmanlike on every drive; obey all traffic regulations; keep speed reasonable; start earlier and drive slower; don’t drive when you drink; remember, danger increases with darkness, at sundown reduce speed so you’re within range of your headlights; stay in line — don’t weave; don't pass unless there’s plenty of room—and never on hills or curves; allow sufficient stoipping distance between you and the car ahead; be extra alert at intersections; always signal your intention to turn or stop; if the weather is bad, don’t drive unless you must; if you drive, double your care; check your brakes, lights, windshield wipers, tires, and steering. Safe walking tips: Cross streets only at crosswalks. Before crossing look both ways. Cross only on proper signal. Watch for turning cars. Never go into the roadway between parked cars. If there is no sidewalk, and you must walk in the roadway, walk on left, facing traffic. When walking at night, wear or carry something white to help drivers see you. Bow ties comprise 5 percent of all ties made in the U.S.

| Aircraft Company J Plans Huge Plant Speculation Over Huge Rocket Plan I WASHINGTON (INS) — A major aircraft company’e announceI ment of plans to build a huge plant ' in Colorado led to speculation toI day that the air force is making 1 progress in developing a huge intercontinental rocket. , The Glenn L. Martin of Baltimore announced last night that | it will construct a new plant on a 4,000-acre site some 15 milea south of Denver and that it will eventI ually employ some 5,000 persona. The air force said there has been speculation that the Martin firm may be the second contractor for the "Atlas," a rocket capable of traveling 5,000 miles at speeds of more than 10,000 miles an hour. Consolidated Vultee, of Convair I —according to informed sources —has been awarded the first contract for the development of the “Atlas," which will dwarf all rockets thus far known to have been tested. Although the Martin - company refused to indicate- what type of work was planned for its new Denver division — which will require some 15 months to build — it was generally believed that it would be designed for rocket development The Air Force declared that no definite contract has been made with the firm but they "may be” going ahead on the “assumption** they will get the second “Atlas" | contract. The suicide of Dorothy Louise - Sherman, 37, was blamed on poor health. Her husband is Police Sgt. John Sherman. t TEEPLE ’/ MOVING & TRUCKING h Local and r Long Olstanov “ PHONE 3-2607
