"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
