HEPPNER GAZETTE-TIMES, Thurgdgy, January 29, 1959 "Oregon" Subject Of Unit Study At Boardman By MARY LEE MARLOW Mrs Nathan Thorpe was hos tess for the county extension unit Tuesday of last week at her home, with 25 members present. SuMert of the meeting was "Know Your Oregon," which the i units are studying in connection I with Oregon's Centennial. Hist ories of the Morrow county com munities were reviewed. Leaders were, Mrs Nathan Thorpe and Mrs Frank Marlow. Others assist- Says! In the last 10 years the car you drive and the roads you travel have changed. Today's car Is twice as pow erful as your 1949 car. Everything about It has been re-engi neered for higher speed. Highways today are de signed for speed, too. Turn pikes, thruways, freeways all emphasize speed. En gineers are building roads to get you there faster in your powerful new car. Everything about automo bile transport a 1 1 o n has changed. Everything except you the man behind the wheel. You haven't changed. You and every other driver on the road remain with the same original equipment same eyes, ears, reflexes no better or faster than be fore. When you slip behind the wheel, you have prob lems you didn't have 10 years ago. In 1949 at prevailing speeds you could bring your '49 to a stop in 126 feet Today at 60 miles an hour you rocket a two-ton mis sile at 88 feet a second. But your stopping distance Is double. All the control you have is exerted through the four small areas of rubber where your car contacts the road. And the average car has a 125-square inch footprint barely larger than your own two feet. You need stamina in the tires on that powerful new car of yours, especially on long trips on fast roads. High speed does perilous things to your tires. It dis torts them. Engineers call this traction wave. It re sults from the tire's ina bility to recover from load deflection in a single revo lution. When distortion sets up, tire failure is no minor per il. What can you do about it? Don't exceed the speed capacity of your tires. Have your tire dealer inspect them before taking off on a long trip. On long runs, beware of turnpike hypnosis. This comes from subconsciously listening to the drone of your tires against the road while staring fixedly ahead. You get drowsy. Your judgement of speed and distance is impared. What can you do about it? Con stantly sweep your eyes over the entire scene, sing or talk, vary your speed, chew gum, make frequent stops, change to tires with quieter treads. Your tires have a direct effect on your safety in many ways. Tires with treads that won't grip can cause skids. Lack of tire traction can get you into trouble quickly on emer gency stops. The rubber Industry has developed tires for all types of driving. Tor driving around town. For driving at moderate speeds on the highway. For driving at top legal speeds for long dis tances on turnpikes. Here's what to do: Make certain that the tires on your powerful and fast new car are the type you need for your kind of driving. How do you go about deter mining the type of tires you need? Explain your driving habits to your tire dealer and ask him to recommend safe tire to you I Ford's TIRE SERVICE General Tire lng with the reviews were, Mrs Mrs Richard Wav- mire, Mrs Dewey West, Mrs! nalnh Skoubo.
