IHI REGISTER. OTTARD, EUGENE. OREOOW Page Ten. 100-Hour Safety Drive Start Postponed to Thursday Noon E. Clark Bobbett. America's foremost exponent ot safety and economy driving, who was recently designated by a quar ter of a million school chudrep h 47 states as their selection for "All Time-All American" safe ty driver, commences his 100 hour safety demonstration through the business and resi dential sections of Eugene Thursday noon at 12:30 o'clock. Mr. Bobbett, during his safe ty drive, compiles a personal obervatlonal report on local driving and traffic conditions, as he encounters them. A check on speedy driving in the busi ness section, traffic congested corners, double parking, bad lights and other hazards, are a few of the features that Mr. Bobbett stresses in his safety re port on local conditions. Leaving nothing to guess work or memory in the compilation of his report, Bobbett dictates his immediate impressions to his secretary as they present them selves during the safely drive. She in turn clicks off his re port on a Royal portable touch control typewriter, which after many severe tests has proven most satisfactory. The safety drive in Eugene, which is Bobbett's 108th in 47 states, which is sponsored by the Silva Chevrolet Company, the High Students Have Narrow Escape After Game GRANTS TASS, Ore., Nov. 21.

SHORTER and UP A fashionably created collluro may be the dil ioronco between obscurity and popularity In any woman's Hie For your next hair stylo See Koltsch Open 8 lo 8 Eugene Register-Guard, KORE and other leading Eugene firms, has as its purpose the demon stration of proper driving methods for the citizens of the citv and county, and as an ad ditional feature offers proof of the safety and economical claims made by Julio Silva, local Chev rolet distributor, on behalf of the new 1939 Chevrolet car. During the many demonstra tion drives in the past, Mrs Bobbett has acted as her hus band's relief at the wheel. Her sudden illness a few days ago resulted in a postponement of the drive start until Thursday noon to allow time for the ar rival of a relief driver. During the 100-hour safety drive Bobbett will pay particu lar notice to the various con gested corners in Eugene, es pecially those intersections where safety lights are shortly to be installed, in order that a com prehensive report on existent conditions may be turned over to the city officials.

McCrady's has been designated officially as the eat ing headquarters for Mr. and Mrs. Bobbett before and after the demonstration drive, and will serve the remainder of the staff three times daily. The Saturday afternoon broad cast conducted by Mr. Bobbett over KORE was the concluding broadcast in the Voice of Safe ty program, and offered as his guests Miss Stebbin, represent ing the Women's Christian Tem perance Union, who gave some very interesting information rel ative to those who drive cars while drinking. ! Another! guest on this final broadcast was J. H. McKinley of the Tromp Insurance Agency who stated that property dam age resulting from automobile accidents alone was $830,000,000. Mr. McKinley also discussed the various kinds of insurance need ed by the average individual whether driving a car, or merely riding as a passenger.

Large Crowd Out For Dedication church has a real responsibility in this work. "We can not loo to the schools to do the things the churches should do," he comment ed. A plea was made by the speaker, also, for "a greater mani festation of Christian principles toward our fellow men," as he mentioned the persecution of Jews, Catholics, and Protestants in Eu rope. He stressed the fact that the great hope to bring the world out of its trouble and despair is "the return to God." Bishop Dagwell officiated at both the communion and the 11a. m. services, assisted by Bishop Remington and Rev. H. R. White, rector of the St. Mary's church. At the dedication service, church officers sat in a special section, in cluding the vfirdens, T. R. Green wood and Walter P. Fell; the vestry members, Robert L. Camp bell, Dr. Edward E. Gray, G. E.

Is Said On Increase The piano business, again shoot ing very close to its peak figures for last year, is strong and has the radio and the moving picture to thank for it. That, today, was the statement of Ralph Wilson of the Wilson Music House of Eugene. "Today you can hear people who twenty years ago might have thought music meant the village dance shouter sawing away on his fiddle discuss the relative merits of Stokowski and Benny Good man, Toscanini and Guy Lombar do, and dot it intelligently. They've heard them over the air this year. "Furthermore, this has awak-. ened in them a desire to have their own children play a musical instrument," he continued. "A re cent survey shows that more chil dren" are today studying piano than at any time in recent history. "With all of this, a definite piano shortage is in prospect for this holiday season, if business runs at all to what we figure it will, since piano factories will be unable to make deliveries much faster than they are doing this month." Figures released today by the National Piano Manufacturers As sociation showed that more than 55,000 pianos were sold during the first nine months of this year, with the three biggest months, from point of volume, still ahead. It is believed that close to 100,000 pianos will be made in America and seen them in the movies.
