minds of 81 alleged traffic violators
with pentitential terror this morning
by reading from the bench all six

count of what happens to the victims
OF automobile accidents.
To his nervous listeners the judge
repeated from the article, And
Sudden Death" in the August issue
of Readers Digent:
Every time you pass blind curve,
every time you hit it up on slip
perry road, every time you step on
it faster than your refiexes will safely
react, every time you drive with your
reactions slowed down by drink or
two, every time you follow the man
ahead too closely, you're gambling a
few seconds against this kind of blood
and agony and sudden death"

activities, it is reported.
