59 Years of Safe Driving
ir
A total of 59 years of driving cars and trucks without an acci
dent even a smashed fender is the record of Mr. and Mrs.
Harry Codner of Dallas who are show here being interviewed by
Johnny Carpenter of radio station KOIN, Portland. Carpenter
made a tape recording with the Codners to use on his broadcast
on auto safety which was presented Saturday evening.
Mrs. Codner has driven an auto for ,22 years without a mishap
and Codner's record stretches for 37 years, the past nine of which
have been as a commercial driver for Dallas creamerv.
"Let the other fellow always have the right of way, and don't
argue about It," is Codner's advice to fellow motorists. Second
point on the couple's program for safe driving is to have good
brakes.
Recently, Mr. Codner used a combination of his two safety
tips to prevent a potentially bad accident and keep his record
intact, although it cost three cases of milk. He had to slam on
the brakes to avoid hitting another driver who took the right of
way at an intersection, and the three cases of milk toppled over
In the truck.
It made a big mess in the truck, but it was worth it," said
r. Codner.
Local residents feel that the Codners should be in line for
some kind of a safe driving award. (Abel Photo)

SECRET TECHNIQUES FOUND?
How Did Stradivari Create
Master Violins? Answer Claimed
Cremona. Italy VP) "Give me a man with the wonderful hands.
ears and feeling for violins that Antonio Stradivari had, and I
will show him How to make violins as good as the master's superb
Instruments."
Thus says Prof. Renzo Bac-
chetta, Cremona lawyer who
thinks he has penetrated the
secrets of the man who 200
years ago brought the violin to
a state of perfection not since
equalled.
But the genius' secret tech-
niaue, Bacchetta said, can only
be turned into superlative vio
lins by another genius. Bac
chetta has already given the
secrets to the Italian govern
ment "Antonio Stradivari school
of violin making" here, and vio
lins are being made according
to what Bacchetta thinks were
the master's methods.
The Stradivari school is open
to students of all nationalities.
It presently has eight students.
One of these is 18-year-old Ad
olph Primavera, whose father is
a violin maker at Philadelphia.
There are reallv three secrets
Vlccording to Bacchetta's infor
mation:
One is the kind of varnish.
The second is the "preparation"
of the Instrument to allow an
absolutely even application of
the varnish. The third is in just
what order and manner the 58
pieces that make up a violin
were put together.
