The section of line is being re built to serve as an alternate route for power delivery in the event of trouble affecting the main trans mission line presently supplying the Dixonville substation from the sev en North Umpqua power develop ments, Quisenberry explained. Total cost of the project, sched uled for completion the end of this month, is an estimated $71,788. As soon as improvement of t h e Toketee-Soda Springs section of the line is completed, PP&L construc tion crews will begin work on re inforcing and strengthening the 125,000-volt line between the Dixon ville substation and the Toketee power house. This job is another stage of work begun in 1962 and will cost an additional $165,000. The project involves the replace ment of poles, insulators and con ductor with equipment that can withstand the severe winter condi tions experienced In the North Umpqua area. "The line has been designed so that it can be converted to a high er voltage level when energy needs of FP&L's Douglas county custom ers require the additional power," Quisenberry noted.

What every woman who ever drives alone should know about her car Here are some motoring tips and hints for our lady customers only. The in formation isn't technical. But it's impor tant information that could save you time and trouble. 1. What to do if your car won't start. First, check the obvious. Do you have fuel? (If you Jiave run out, don't feel too bad over 5,000 motorists do it everyday.) If you have an automatic transmission, is the gear selector lever at exactly the right spot? Check and make sure. It's also a good idea to push the acceler ator pedal all the way down and release it quickly just before you attempt to start. Now, try the starter again in bursts of 2 or 3 seconds. Still no go? Let your engine rest for three or four minutes. Try once more this time with slightly longer hursts. If your engine stilt balks, give your. Shell dealer a call. 2. How to recognize carburetor icing stalls plus a tip to help prevent them. This ever happened to you on a damp, chilly day? Your car starts promptly. You drive a short distance to the first stop sign and you stall. You have no trouble re starting. But, at the next intersection, you stop and stall again. Then, the stalls dis appearjust as mysteriously as they came. That's a typical case of carhurclor icing. If your car has this trouble, try Super Shell gasoline. One of its 9 working in gredients is an anti-icer that fights car buretor icing stalls. 3. In a lightning storm, your car is one of the safest places you can be. So don't be terrified if there's lightning all around you. When the rain starts to fall, slow down and proceed with care. If the rain pours down so hard that you can't see well, pull all the way off the road and wait until the storm lets up. Note: if you must stop, don't park under a tree or on a surface that could bog you down. 4. An important warning that your brakes can give you and what to do about it.
