provide information on problems as they occur."
After finding out the road conditions, highway
drivers should prepare for the adverse road con
ditions.
Some of these preparations include drivers mak
ing sure their cars are in good condition and have
enough antifreeze, and bringing proper traction
devices and fundamental survival needs
fars new) antifreeze not only for the colder weath
er conditions, but also to protect against overheat
ing. Cars that are in traffic jams often overheat even
in the winter. Pones said.
Cars should have traction devices appropriate to
the weather conditions, and people should educate
themselves as to how to use these devices
“Studded tires are good for ice and light snow,
but chains are necessary for heavy snow condi
tions." Pones said.
When traveling during the winter, Pones encour
aged |>eople to bring supplies like blankets or sleep
ing twigs, water, sweats and warm clothing, an ice
scraper, canned food and a container that can hold
a liquid in case they are stranded
Drivers should also he aware of their driving prac
tices. and always practice defensive driving. Pones
urged drivers to remember that driving five to 10
miles an hour too fast can lie a factor, and many
people driving during the holidays are alcohol
impaired
"We're going to have extra patrols during the hoi
idavs.” Fones said
Bail for trnflu violations like speeding and drunk
en driving have gone up since Oregon's last Leg
islature session, which means the courts can asst»ss
higher fines lor traffn tickets
People traveling on the bus, the train or bv plane
should also lie prepared for any contingent v
"People should be prepared for the unknown,"
said Rotart Henderson, the manager of the Eugene
Greyhound Depot.
When traveling on Greyhound. Henderson sug
gests that students bring their wallets anti purses,
all necessary medication, o small amount of cash,
possibly a credit tard and a small bag with a change
of clothes and toiletries.
Greyhound will run its buses whenever the roads
are open, Henderson said, but they am like any oth
er vehicle when the roads close.
Travelers on Greyhound have been stranded for
up to two days on the road in rare circumstances.
Henderson said, but people can be stranded for
longer in bus depots when the roads are closed.
Greyhound does not necessarily house and feed
people in its depots because weather is an act of
God, Henderson said.
Another form of travel, the train, is more of an
experience than a way of getting from one place
to another, said Dave Yarbrough, manager of the
local train depot Trains can be delayed by derail
ments, washouts and extreme weather conditions.
Another form of travel, the airplane, rarely is ham
pered by weather said John Gallagher, marketing
manager for the Eugene airport.

BURGLARIES

in or even sees someone suspi
cious. and that person calls us."
Students should eliminate
dark spots or foliage from
entrances to their homes, Mason
suggested. Valuables should also
be hidden from view if left at
home.
Simple precautions like these
can lessen the chance of burglar
ies. Mason said.
At least one University frater
nity president whose house was
one of several burglarized two
years ago is worried about win
ter vacation break-ins
"I believe break-ins are a con
i ern for every fraternity or soror
ity on campus — especially after
what happened two Christ masers
ago," Jim Shaw said.
"We have our members take
their valuables — their stereos,
their computers, and that stuff —
home (or the break," Shaw said
"And members who live in town
sometimes stay at the fraternity
to keep an eye on things."
Some homeowners in laigene
are using innovative methods to
deter criminals One woman
who had been having problems
with trespassers put dog bowls
and beware of dog signs on her
residence. The woman has not
been having problems with tres
passers since, but Mason urged
students not to rely on creative
methods.
People living in the dorms
should leave their curtains open,
said Tom Hicks, associate direc
tor of the University Office of
Public Safety. Leaving the cur
tains open would make it easier
for OPS to spot u burglar, and it
would make it more difficult for
the burglar to use a flashlight or
other light source
People in the dorms should
also lock everything, and Hicks
urges the students to take their
valuables homo.
Although burglaries are one
major problem during the holi
days, fire hazards also present u
danger to property and people.
There have been several fire
deaths on campus in the lost
eight to 10 years. Deputy Fire
Marshall Gary Kernutt said.
When leaving their homes for
the holidays, students should
unplug all elet trical appliances
Students should also keep com
bustibles away from any poten
tial heat sources
"We recommend an eight-to
12 inch clearance a wav from
baseboard heaters," Kernutt
said. "Many times, people
believe that thev have their
heaters turned off, only to have
the heaters kick on "
Kernutt advises students to
clear away dried-up Christmas
trees, make sure their chimneys
are clean anti never use candles
in households.
