Accident Prone Drivers To Pay More In Insurance By Frank A. White ACCIDENT PRONE, UNSAFE auto drivers are going to have to pay more for insurance. The careful, accident free auto driver will pay the same, and in many cases less. This action announced by the major group of Indiana auto insurance companies, makes sense. All too long the accident free and careful auto drivers have been sharing the cost of repair and liability of the reckless drivers. This new trend also has something worthwhile for the under-age. or teenage driver. The careful youthful driver insurance will be less and those who are accident prone, more, the same as adults. One big insurance company has done some research in a look at the “composite” auto driver that is insured. He is 23 years of age and has been driving since 16. As an average he has had four accidents, one of which involves an injury. His wife, also 23 years of age, has been driving since 16. She has had two accidents. They have a family of 3 children and by the time they are 40 years old, the man has been involved in 9 accidents and*the mother 3. This makes 12 accidents between them, that have injured 4 persons. BY THE TIME the “composite” average parents are 66, the whole family will have run up a score of: Father, 13 accidents, four injuries, cost $6,500; Mother, 6 accidents, 2 injuries, cost $3,000. The 3 children (not with children of their own) have had a total of 19 accidents and 6 injuries, costing $9,500. In a lifetime, grand total for one man’s family is 38 accident, involving 12 injuries, at a cost of $19,000 at 1962 prices. A look at this composite of one man’s family indicates why insurance companies generally have taken a beating in repair and liability costs to motorists. This accounts for the high cost of insurance. ONE OF THE ANCIENT truths pertains to a prophet being without honor in his own country. This could be applied to the record of Elmer C. Paul in his long service to the Indiana State Police. As I recall over the years of reporting Indiana State Police, Paul finally reached a rank of Lieutenant. His role was to look deeper in automobile crashes, than the

cursory and hastily prepared report of accidents. Fellow- police did not relish the questions Paul was continually asking about “ordinary” auto crashes. TO PAUL GOES THE high honor of having initiated auto crash research long before Cornell University and other famed groups got in the act. At long last, a Surgeon General of the USA, Luther Terry, called Paul to service with the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare in Washington. Currently, Paul was guest of honor at the National Press Club. Dr. Donald E. Wood, president, Indiana Medical Association, and Dr. Luther Bibler, of Indianapolis, trustee, American Medical Association, made presentation of a citation to Paul. Paul’s real pay for years of unrecognized research is, he knows what he contributed has helped save human Lives. CONGRESSMAN 11. R. Gross (RIowa) speaking at the Foreign Affairs Conference of the Naval Academy, said: “We have built drinking foun tains for camels in the Middle East, financed military support for ‘pennyante’ dictators, built a luxury airport where there is no air traffic, constructed highways for water buffalo traffic, and supplied an air conditioned yacht for a foreign potentate who wants to play at being an admiral of the Navy Were these dictated by our national self-interest? Os course not. And that is why our image in the world has reached anew low. People, no matter who they are, have no respect for those who have no respect for themselves.” About half of the population of Holland lives below sea level. The smallest bone in the human body is the anvil bone of the ear.

SHEINWOLD
Leading Players Win Mixed Pair Victory By ALFRED SHEINWOLD Nobody was surprised when Mrs. Jan Stone and Jesse Sloan won the Mixed Pair Championship during recent national tournament in Los Angeles. Both are leading Life Masters, and they have the advantage of playing the Roth-Stone system, one of the few scientific bidding systems played in the United States. Mrs. Stone comes honestly by her knowledge of the system since her husband, Tobias Stone, i5 coinventor with Alvin Roth. Incidentally, the principal championship of the national tournament was won by Roth’s team, all playing his system: and Stone’s team was second. SURPRISING PAIR Bridge enthusiasts come in all sizes and shapes these days. But the new Mixed Pair champions present a surprising appearance nevertheless. Sloan, a serious, brooding type, reserves his humor for situations that have nothing to do with bridge. He is clearly an intellectual who might have become a mathematician, a psychiatrist or a philisopher if Fate hadn't marked him out to be a bridge expert. (Actually, he’s in the real estate business in Los Angeles when he’s not brooding seriously at the bridge table.) Mrs. Stone, who spent her adolescence and early twenties as a radio and television actress, always looks as though she’s about to enter (and win a beauty contest. No stranger would expect her to know spades from hearts, but the young charmer is actually one of the highest ranking players in the country. In the first year of her marriage, when Tobias Stone led the country in master points won in tournaments, Jan-Stone took second place with a score never attained by any other woman player. RECALLS ANECDOTE When Sloan put down the dummy of the hand shown today, Mrs. Stone murmured “Fifteen seconds” reminiscently. The reference was to an ahecdotc about Fred D. Kaplan, the terrible-tempered lawyer and bridge expert of the prewar era. Some years ago Kaplan flayed in a tournament with a young lady whom he had instructed never to raise his bid with fewer than four trumps. Along came a hand on which she raised with a very fine hand containing only three trumps the ace, king, and queen. Kaplan stared incredulously at the dummy, pulled out his watch, and snapped: “I'll give you fifteen seconds to produce another trump!” GETS ALONG Some players at the tournament needed a fourth trump in dummy to make the game contract. Mrs. Stone managed to get along with only three trumps.

with the ace of hearts and then led a trump, just to see what would happen. What they saw was 100 points on the opponents' side of the scoreslip. That one round of trumps was enough to doom the contract. Declarer must set up and cash one of dummy’s low diamonds to avoid the loss of four tricks. All of dummy’s trumps are needed as entries for the diamonds. RETURNS TRUMP When South led a trump to dummy’s queen before starting the diamonds. East was able to win and return a trump to dummy’s king. South could ruff one diamond, get to dummy with the ace of trumps, and ruff another diamond. At this stage dummy’s last diamond was good as gold, but there was no way to get to it. South had already lost a diamond and was still sure to lose a heart and two clubs STARTS EARLY Mrs. Stone made the contract by starting the diamonds at the first opportunity. Afer winning the first trick w ith the ace of hearts, declarer led a diamond and allowed East to win with the nine. East returned a trump to dummy’s queen, but this correct defense didn’t work against three trump entries to dummy. Mrs. Stone cashed the ace of diamonds and ruffed a diamond, got back to dummy with the king of spades, and ruffed another diamond. The last diamond was as good as gold, and the ace of spades was still in dummy. Mrs. Stone led a trump to dummy’s ace and cashed the last diamond to fulfill the game contract. (COPYRIGHT 1963, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.) WHAT LUCK? A North Vernon man. Paul Ferguson, upon returning from a Florida vacation, found in his accumulated mail a letter informing him that in a contest he had won an all-expense trip to the Bahamas for two weeks. The catch was that he would have to leave from Miami where he had just been. Ferguson told The North Vernon Sun he woud try for a “rain check” so he could take the Bahama trip next year when he plans a return visit to Miami.

OUT OF THE PULPIT
By Rev. Howard E. Walker Don’t read this column this week unless you are the dean of a Vacation Bible School in your church or the community in which you live. It's just for that select group ot leaders Who must enlist teachers and helpers. . Until this year I've never been impressed with the ability of folks who “certainly would help otherwise” to plan their vacations just before, during, or just after Vacation Bible School. I find this especially true of those “saints of the Cross” who feel most emphatically that “every church needs a VBS. Surely tfiere will be enough workers, even tl we're on vacation just then.” Or, if we don't have out own Vacation Bible School, we can join the community school: that way. with all the churches involved, there are more helpers than needed. Well, there may be. but. oh. to find them, beg them, plead with them, handle them with kid gloves, anything to get them to say “yes. I'll help IF . . . '' And then come the conditions. My Johnny has to visit Aunt Su sie on Tuesday: I'll have to take him there. Can someone fill in for me that day?” “Sharon has a dental appointment Thursday: I'll have to be off Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.' One feels like asking if the dental appointment really lasts that long. Mrs. Simpson can help if her company doesn't come. Os course, rhe won't know for sure until they arrive, so this put the dean in a real secure position. Jerry Brown, who handled crafts last year, will help again if the period is shortened. And Mrs. Jones will help if we change to some literature easier to teach. What she means, of course, is that she wants literature she can pick up one-half hour before mass starts and do her total preparation in that short time. Well, VBS deans and directors, this is m occasion to turn to Paul's second letter to Timothy: “be urgent in season and out of season ... be unfailing in patience . . . ”
We know many of you will be going to college. We hope you select the school you like best. If we can ever be of any assistance to you in any way as an industry in your community, don't hesitate to call on us for guidance.
GOOD - LUCK - TO- YOU YOU ARE TO BE COMMENDED FOR COMPLETING YOUR HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION AND URGE YOU TO GO FURTHER ON TO COLLEGE IF POSSIBLE. BUT IF YOU ARE SEEKING EMPLOYMENT, OF COURSE BLUE BELL IS ALWAYS ANXIOUS TO EMPLOY THE YOUNG PEOPLE WHO DO NOT PLAN TO GO ON TO COLLEGE.
•Tn season and out of season" means to me “when you feel like it artd when you don’t feel like it, when the work and response come easy and when they come .hard.” Keep at it. Be unfailing in patience. And may God especially bless those who volunteer to help in VBS, and those who respond with “yes” the first time they are asked. The “Ballad of Davy Crockett” sold over 7 million copies in 6 months, which is about a record for any record. Two groups of people who complain about taxes - men and women. Quite often, the chip on the shoulder is just bark.
