Built by the U.S. govern ment at a cost of $2,750,000, the two lane highway is main tained jointly by the U.S. Bureau of Public Roads and the state of Colorado. Con struction was started in 1926 and finally completed in 1950. Official opening of Trail Ridge on Memorial Day sig nalled the start of Colorado's tourist season. Crews manning rotary plows usually begin clearing the highway of heavy winter snows about May 1 but drifts as high as 30 feet have frequently, delayed the scheduled May 30 opening Colorful ribbon - cutting ceremonies - pegged to a "hands across the mountains" theme are held every year as hundreds of motorists line up to make the mountain drive. Often Closed ; Trail Ridge usually remains open until about Oct. 1. But weather often steps in to close it down for short periods dur ing the summer. In June, 1954, 14 cars and 36 persons were marooned for 12 hours when a sudden storm piled three-foot snow drifts at the 12,000-foot level. Once, the road was closed by a July hail storm. ' Snow can be found along Trail Ridge above timberline throughout the summer, giv ing tourists a chance to .tell the folks back home about making snowballs in the mid dle of July.

And make sure your brakes and tires are in top condition. A "hot" ring helps tame an old enemy Atomic radiation helps this man do his job. He's Dr.. Hugh Macpherson, one of Standard's research engineers. The "hot" ring he's holding is an ordinary piston ring which has been exposed to atomic radiation. By installing such radioactive piston rings in a car, oar research engineers can use a Geiger counter to measure wear as it happens while the car is driven on the highway, in traffic, on hills in every possible driving situation. 1 This research technique has taken months off the time needed to test the effectiveness of new motor oils, and it's far more accurate than previous It's one of the techniques pioneered by Standard's scientists to help defeat an old enemy . ; . wear to learn what it is, what causes it, how to prevent it. i. . ' . Our progress has been steady. Working with car manufacturers, we've virtually ended the problem of wear in automobile engines. In the 1930's, for example, cars could go only 20 to 40 thousand miles before a major overhaul. But with, today's motor oils and regular oil changes, your engine can be good for more than 100,0d0 miles can, in' fact, outlast the car. By such never-ending research that leads to better products . . . the people at Standard are planning ahead to serVe you Better.
