B Z Precautions Being Taken To Notify Motorists of Ice "We are open for suggest ions," R. L. Lammert, district maintenance supervisor for the Oregon state highway de partment, commented this week after foggy-Icy condl tions earlier caused several ac cidents on the Interstate 5 via duct. The highway department last week installed yellow caution signs slating "Ice" at eac hend of the viaduct, Lam mert said. He added that plans are under way for addi- tional signs on temporary standards with flares, which would be Installed once Icing occurs. Lammert said both the de partment s sandera are back in operation. One was dam agea ivionaay wnen it was struck by a car while it was sanding along the freeway Lammert said the depart ments sanaer naa Been on the freeway viaduct early lueseiay morning but several other icy spots were being sanded in other areas of the valley during the same peri od. Lammert said the depart ment will try to have the via duct sanded every 30 minutes when icy. He noted that sand only give cars a small amount of traction and vehicles op erating too fast will skid if the brakes are applied. Once sand is applied to ice it will remain only as long as traffic is slow and light. Vehicle speed and constant travel re move the sand from the high way, he noted. Lammert complimented Modford police in their ef forts Jan. 1. Officers stopped motorists before reaching the viuauci ana cauiionca mem to drive with caution. Lam 'mert said he believed It help ed in clearing the viaduct and preventing major accl dents. The district superintendent noted that on other highways the department mixes rock salt or calcium chloride with the sand to melt snow and ice. Those chemicals can not be used on new concrete pave ment, he noted. Lammert commented that the problem appears to be ed ucating the out-of-vallcy driv er to slow down on a 70-mile- por-hour freeway once they see an "Ice" sign..

I "'" 1384 SQUARE FEET g Cigarette Use To Show 'Modest Gain' in 1963 Washington -IUPD- The Agri culture Department has fore cast cigarette consumption in the United States will show a "modest gain" in 1963 over the S10 billion that went up in smoke in 1062. The department estimated cigarette output in 1062 at a record 537 billioni up 8 bil lion from 19(11. Of this amount, 496 billion were smoked in the United Slates, 14.2 billion were used by overseas forces, more than 3.1 billion went to Puerto Rico nnd other U.S. islands, Savannah To Reach Portland Friday Portland -(UPB- The NS Sa vannah, the world's fjrst nu clear-powered ship, will ar rive here Friday afternoon for visit. The vessel is scheduled to leave Astoria at 7 a.m. and is scheduled to arrive at Port land at 3 p.m. The Savannah, which Is a joint project of the Atomic Energy commission a.nd the Maritime administration, will be greeted by a flotilla of yachts along with flreboats and helicopters. The ship is scheduled to be docked at Terminal No. 4. It will be open to the public from Saturday to Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. sold and 23.3 billion were on the export market. The department said that while consumption and out put of cigarettea set new highs for the sixth consecutive year, the annual rate of in crease slowed appreciably compared with other recent years. The agency said the publicity concerning cigarette smoking and health may have been a retarding factor during the past year, and there may be some carry-over of this Influence Into 1963. Cigarette consumption seems likely to show a modest gain in 1963, however, be cause there will be more peo ple of smoking age, and some increases in economic activity and consumer income are expected.

POOLE'S MOBILE HOMES 1122 South Riverside Phone 773-3732 This Week's Plan for Home Builders By HIAWATHA ESTES There are many ways to make a house seem larger than it actually is. A generous amount of glass extends the walls visually. An open floor plan allows rooms to appear more specious. A readily ac cessible rear patio guarantees privacy and can double as an extra room for several months of the year. This design offers all of these advantages and many more. Although this is not a large home, it docs pack a great amount of good, leisurely liv ing into a limited area. A wide entry is well light ed by a glass panel located next to the front door. Just off the entry is the living room, den, family room and bedroom hall. The living room has been especially well planned for the arranging of furniture. High windows are on each side of the fireplace which has been located so as ts take up as little space as possible in the room. By arranging the den or third bedroom so conveni ently to the entry and com pletely separated from the re maining two bedrooms, its use is much more flexible. It could be used as an office, a TV room, a guest room or as a private suite for an in-law that might be living with the family. The family bath features a pullman lavatory iwth stor age below, a semi-partitioned water closet and an enclosed tub with shower over. The second bath is accessible from both the den and the service. The convenience of such a bath location protects your house from much of the wear and grime that would other wise occur from children tracking through the house. The patio can be reached from both the family room and hall. The hall door has panes of glass to assure a well lighted hall. The family room Is par, tially open to the kithcen. To behold the gleaming beauty of this modern kitchen will bring enjoyment and anticipa tion of care-free living con venience to your entire fam ily. The center of interest of the contemporary exterior is the large picture window at the front of the living room which is flanked by stone ve neer and vertical wood mem bers. A low stone planter pro jects past each side of the window. Complete working drawings for thii plan can be purchased, at a cost of $7.50 for the first set and S3 for each additional set when ordered at the same time. This plan will be available at these prices unUI April 16. Please allow two to three weeks for delivery.
