Montana Resident Criticizes
North Dakota's Road Marking

Donald Kopriva, a storekeeper
Of Hardin, Mont, doesn't think
much of the way in which North
Dakota marks its roads.
He was heading eastward early
Monday morning when hts car
went into the ditch at turn
just east Of Sterling and burned
up. He managed to extricate his
wife and four children from the
car before any of them were in
jured but said it was a close call.
Kopriva contends that poor
road marking caused his acci-
dent. Route No. 10 makes a
sharp turn to the left just east OF
Sterling, he said, whereas another
road continues straight east. The
only marker is a small sign read
ing mo. 10, L." he said, and con-
tended that it isn't large enough
or conspicuous enough to catch
the eye of a driver. He also ex-
pressed the view that the sign is
too close to the turn and that it
should be in yellow, the standard
warning color. His observations,
he told The Tribune, were made

and for the benefit Of other
motorists.
A woman who lives nearly,
Kopriva said, told him that she
gave emergency care to four dif-
ferent parties whose automobiles
had left the road at that point
within the last year because Of
the imperfect marking.
In his case, Kopriva said, he
missed the sign entirely but his
ll-year-old son, riding in the
front seat with him, called his
attention to it. He applied his
brakes and tried to make the
turn but was unable to do so.
going into the ditch and turning
over. He would have been better
off, he said, had he continued on
the road extending eastward from
the turn. since he quickly would
have realized that he was off the
main highway.
The Kopriva family were en-
route to st. Cloud. Mimi, to visit
with relatives. The car was in

Prove Gullible

Local restaurant men have been

BY dint Of convincing panto-
