Flashing Blue
Light Explained
The secretary of state’s traffic
safety division joined the state
highway commission today in
warning Oregon motorists of
danger ahead when a flashing
blue light is seen on wintry high
ways.
The blue light, the division
said, signals that snow plowing
and sanding equipment is at work
and that drivers should proceed
with extra caution. Such equip
ment may be encountered at any
time in mountain areas during
the winter months.
Vehicles displaying the blue
light should be given the right
of way the division said, and no
attempt to pass should be made
in flying snow while the big ro
tary plows are in operation.
Highway department
officials
said most mishaps involving
snow removal equipment occur
when motorists overdrive visibil
ity and road conditions, failing to
stop or slow down in time to
avoid a collision.
You are taller in the morning
than you are at night because
cartilage and joints expand when
you are asleep and there is no
weight on them.

New Draft Order Alters Procedure
State headquarters, selective
service system for Oregon, an
nounces that instructions have
been received permitting volun
tary induction of registrants from
18 to 26, if acceptable to the
armed forces.
“Up until this time,” said
Colonel Francis W. Mason, depu
ty state director, "a registrant
had to wait until his number
came up in regular sequence.
This has worked a distinct hara
ship on many young men, whose
work is of such nature that after
their being found acceptable to
the armed forces, following the
physical examination, it has been
difficult for them to find remun
erative work during the period
between this examination and ac
tual induction.
“Now," continued Colonel Ma
son, “upon written request to
his local board, any registrant,
if not obviously disqualified, may
be physically examined with the
next group being forwarded by
the board, and then inducted
under the next call.”
Colonel Mason went on to point
out that instructions have been
issued also to all local boards to
permit registrants to waive the
21-day waiting period between
the mailing of the notice of ac
ceptability and/or the 10-day
