TRAVELOGUE (Continued from Page 1) electronic computers. Vacations he spent traveHng always with a camera. For a short time he worked with a travel agency but found that sending other people on trips a poor substitute for going there himself. So he turned to travel, phography and lecturing on a fuU time basis. John Strong’s film on CON-' STANTINOPLE, TURKEY gives us a close look into the daily life of this fascinating city. Travelers are constantly surprised at its Oriental character and its skyline of mosques, minarets and modern skyscrapers. CONSTANTINOPLE’S era of greatness started in 330 A.D. when it became the new capital of the Roman Empire. The days of glory for this ancient city ended when it was captured and sacked by the Fourth Crusade. Then the Turks captured the city and turned it into a Moslem city crowned by the beautiful Blue Mosque. The topkapi Palace gives us a glimpse of the primitive luxury in which the Sul-

He curtailed the power of the Moslem priests and led Turkey into the Twentieth Century. As the new capital of Turkey he chose Ankarra, a modern city that was then a group of mud huts. He

changed the name of CONSTANTINOPLE to ISTANBUL and it, too, grew into a modern city with a subway, opera house and sleek hotels such as the Istanbul Hilton and the quaint Pera Palas.

We first take a ferry up the Golden Horn to see the fishing fleet and the Greek Orthodox patriarchate; another ferry up the Bosphorus to see the villas on the shore and the Black Sea; and

finally a third ferry takes us on an outing to the pine-covered Princess Islands. Automobiles are prohibited here so we see the islands’ hills and beaches by horse and carriage. The film ends with a trip to Antalya on the south coast of Turkey. Because of its beautiful scenery, waterfalls, Greek ruins and warm Mediterranean beaches, this area is known as the Turkish Riviera. Its low prices and interesting sights will soon be attracting tourists by the thousands. So let’s go now and see it before the tourists take over.

Traffic Safety You’re 2% times more likely to have an accident in town but 2% times more likely to be killed in a country smashup, according to Indiana State Police accident statistics. The facts, as outlined by State Police for the first nine months of 1968, show there were 90,908 urban crashes as compared to 38,453 in rural areas. The death toll in cities, however, totaled 308 as compared to 771 in the countryside. In explanation of the more than 2-to-l fatality ratio, Acting State Police Superintendent Arthur R. Raney, Jr., pointed out that as speed increases so does accident severity. Most urban collisions, he said, occur at lower speeds and

kill fewer people. But, he added, the urban injury toll is higher. In the nine-month period there were 30,753 injured in city accidents as compared to 21,678 in rural areas. State Police accident analyists indicate the injury figures reflect a higher ratio of vehicle occupants in city driving and fewer persons per vehicle in normal rural motoring. “Mistakes make accidents,” Superintendent Raney said, “but the biggest mistake of all is made by drivers who fail to use their safety belts. Especially those whose excuse for failure to wear them is that they seldom drive outside of town!” Accident summaries in terms of human suffering cannot show the price paid but the dollar loss in property damages totaled $58,583,500.
