For N ew s USA
(NU) - In the past, I've told you
about ways to protect the physical
beauty of your car. I’ve included tips
on selecting a repair shop, inform a­
tion about body work, item s to in­
clude in a road assistance kit and
products to protect the interior
against dirt and stains.
The folks at 3M, who offer some
o f the leading retail car care prod­
ucts, including the spray can auto
version of Scotchgard cleaners and
protectors, have asked me to share a
few tips that w ill help protect you
and your family when driving.
• D o n 't drive a rental car until
you know how the locks work.
• Take a fender-bender to protect
yourself in the event of a deliberate
“accident.”
• D on’t stop if the driver in the
car behind you flashes the headlights.
members o f the O B G C , teaching o f basic su rvival skills,
responsibilities to fam ily and community involvement are a priority.
Issues such as the principle rites o f passage involved in becoming
a man or woman, spirituality, pride, self esteem, respect for
themselves and others, are reinforced in a positive manner.
One o f the ways the club raises funds to support workshops and
field trips that are an important part o f their program is through its
annual g olf tournament and dinner.
The Jam es Boozer M e m o ria l G o lf Tournam ent in honor o f the
late James Boozer a man who was highly regarded in the comm unity
for his dedication, contributions, and the compassion and concern
he showed for the young people o f Portland.

Emergency and law-enforcement ve­
hicles have flashing red or blue lights
and sirens.
• If you are followed, head for the
nearest police station, fire station
or open business. D on't head
hom e or park in a de­
serted area.
• M aintain a half
tank o f gas at all times.
• Know your destination. Choose
well-traveled and illuminated routes.
• If your car breaks dow n at
night, turn on your emergency flash­
ers and stay in the car. If som eone
stops to help, ask them to summon
police or a tow truck.
• At stoplights, leave the car in
gear. If som eone approaches you,
be ready to honk the horn.
• As you approach your car, car­
ry keys with the ends protruding
through your fingers, to use in d e­
fense if necessary.
