NOT RECOMMENDED Mrs. Albert J. Wollner of Berke
ley, Calif., a sleep-walker went a step further and sleep
drove her husband's car 23 miles. She left her Berkeley
home at 2 a. m., drove across the city of Oakland to
awaken behind the wheel of the moving auto 23 miles
away on U. S. Highway 50 two miles east of Castro Valley.
The frightened woman parked the car because it had a
manual shift. Her own car is equipped with an automatic
shift and the manual shift mystifies her when she is
awake. Police officers telephoned her husband to come
and get her.

A cutback in automobile out
put, report of a 16 per cent drop
in housing in 1956, and doubts
cast on the ability of oil com

Widest losses appeared in

New York Bobsled
Run Is Considered
Albany, N. Y. (U.R) New
York state's conservation depart
ment hopes to bring back to
glory and fame that once attend
ed the world-renowned Mt. Van
Hoevenberg bobsled run high in
the Adirondack mountains.
Commissioner Sharon Mauhs
said the bob run has "too long
been the orphan" of the depart
ment. He has hopes that with
sufficient promotion and pub
licity that run can recapture the
flavor that attended it during
past Olympic games.
Located just outside the win
ter sports mecca of Lake Placid,
the famed bob run was construct
ed in 1932 for the Olympic games
of that year. Many a native of
the area will tell you that little
has been done since then to keep
the run a major attraction of the
state.
Now the department is consid
ering the possibility of installing
a chairlift near the run to be
used in summer as well as winter
by spectators who want to In
spect the speedway.
Proponents of the ' plan to
build up the area argue that
more money should be spent, j
Ben Becker of Albany, a former !
president of the Amateur Ath-:
Ietic Union, said the reason :
Squaw Valley had received the i
1960 winter Olympics was be
cause of monetary guarantees
made by the state of California, j
He also argued that 60 per j
cent of those attending Vermont
and nearby resorts in other stages j
are from New York. Becker told j
the commissioner that it was his j
thought that New York does riot ;
spend enough money on the run :
to operate it properly.
Mauhs said he has started the :
ball rolling to rehabilitate the j
bob run bv purchasing two sleds i
from an Italian maker. He added .
that he believes some changes j
should be made in fees charged
at the bob run.
