Interest Shown In Goodyear9 Safety Demonstration Here A crowd of considerable propor tions thst attended the demonstra tions of UfeGuarda here yesterday. expecting a liberal quota of thrills when a tire of a speeding csr was blown out found all Its thrills In the anticipation. Several times the big car came roaring down the road to have Its tlrer ripped to shreds by railroad spikes fixed In a heavy steel plat or blown out by meaus of dynamite caps detonated from within the car. Shivers of dread changed to excla mations of relieved surprise as each time the driver brought the car to a smooth, safe stop, without weav ing, lurching, or leaving the road, even though speeds of approximately 70 miles an hour were attained at the moment of the blowout. The test was conducted under the ! auspices of C. 0. Furnas, with the assistance of police authorities. The reason why what looked like a suicidal performance proved mere ly Interesting, as explained by Mr Furnas, Is that when casing and regular tube are punctured, the Llfe- Guard, a two-play reserve tire, plac ed within the regular tube, supports tne car until it can be brought to a stop. No special driving skill or strength are required. The LlfcGuard is Joined to the tube at the rim base and they are Inflated through the same valve. When the air Is gone from the regular tube, a tiny vent allows It to escape slowly from the LifeOuard, making the worst blowout no. more serious than a slow leak. Mr. Furnas regards ths LifeOuard as the fourth milestone on ths path to complete motoring safety, ths other three being four-wheel brakes. a U -steel bodies and safety glass. He has on file scores of testi monial letters from users of Life Ouard s giving them credit for pre venting serious and perhaps fatal accidents when tires have been sud denly deflated at high speed. Many of these letters say that their writers would no longer consider driving even a single mile without Life Ouard equipment. 4 S CABI Ous Samuels, city treasurer, re ported today to the sheriff's office, tbat for the third time recently, his summer cabin on Wagner creek had been entered, the last tune Monday night. Nothing waa taken or dis turbed on either visit. However, the prowlera alwaya leave the door open.
