The orchestra was made up of teachers living in the center of Sherman county. The Crooked River Ramblers who were booked met with an acci dent, so weren’t able to come.

Secretary of State's office point ed to the figure Tuesday as fur ther proof of a trend note*! in an alyzing the state’s six month traf fic record, when deaths from non collision mishaps rise sharply. Eleven persons died in 10 non- collision crashes during t h e month, most of them because dri vers lost "control“ of their vehi cles and rolled off the highway. Six others were killed when motorists collided with trees, guard rails, ami telephone or power poles. One freak accident occurred®*’hen a driver, trying to avoid a pedestrian and an animal, struck a telephone pole. The pole crashed to the ground striking another car ami crushing the dri ver. Several of these non-collision and fixed object crashes started when drivers trie*! to apply brak es and went in to fatal skids. State safety men called atten tion to the crashes because, they said, “we’re entering the time of year when driver» frequently fail to adjust speed to meet highway and weather conditions.” Fog, rain, wet leaves and early morning or night frost in higher elevation generally result in an upsurge of one-car mishaps dur ing fall months.
