Moving Music
In NeIU Movie
May MOUe to Fame
By JACK O'BRIAN

NEW YORK - The theme music

Falli, the single-monickered CLAM
on doll brought from Italy by Dave
0. Selznick, is a sure pop for popu.
larity . / can see the same thing
happening with it that developed in
a Gene Tierney film called Laura. .
At the time, the Laura" piece
didn't have lyrics, but the folks who
talked to Daryl Zanuck sent the
music into the able mitts of John
ny Mercer, who thereupOn dashed
off the words ''The Paradine
Case" might not be as romantic a
title as was Laura" but who can

together a respectable song called
Green Dolphin Street" as a music
al monument to that picture. So

though, / doubt that anyone could
make me sing a lyric with such an
unwieldy title. Right now I refuse
to try, not even if someone offers
me a case of Paradines.

THE Laura" tonic reminds me
of a matter of private embarrass-

SAFETY COUNCIL NOTES

We may not have to contend with
fog and mist very frequently, but
we're bound to now and then, and
when we do, it can cause us a lot
of annoyance and trouble.
When a heavy fog comes-on
land, at sea, or in the air-every-
thing that moves, moves with eau
ton, for one thing is true-in spite
of all our progress, transportation
still depends on pairs Of eyes in
human heads.
Scientists who have studied fog,
say that it is composed of tiny
drops of water. These drops are so
small and light that they hang in
the air, and so close together that
light can hardly get through them.
Instead, these little drops act like
tiny convex mirrors. When we try
to pierce them with beam of light,
a great deal of it is thrown right
back at us, so the effect is just like
a great, cleaning white curtain in
front of us.
Experienced drivers say that the
hrst thing to do is to get our lights
right. The main thing is to direct
the beams downward. If we have
them shining straight ahead, those
little mist-drOp mirrors reflect the
rays back III our eyes. But if they're
pointing downward, the rays are
uenected toward the road.
ihen they say it's a good idea to
gulde by the road edge at our right.
But says the Delaware Safety
Council we have to keep a good
weather eye ahead, too, because fog
ylels more than the road. It hides
Ilot only things on the road, but

now are requiring a minimum Of
two years Of college preparation
for admission. A few require col
lege degree as a prerequisite for
entrance.

curves and hills and intersections.
Even the traffic lights red and
green signal rays have the same
hard time that car headlights do
getting through that strange haze.
In fact, in a good heavy fog, the
best we can do. for our vision is
none too good. And so the main
thing is to slow down. The ships
have to do it, and trains have to do
it and we have to do it too. If we
won't make up our minds to that,
they tell us the best thing we can
do is to pull off the road, or if we
have not yet started out, we had
better just stay home.
But seeing in fog and mist is only
half the story. We not only have TO
see, but We also have to be seen.
Our headlights properly adjusted
are strong enough to do their duty
in pointing US out to people coming
from the opposite direction. And,
in addition, some drivers use their
horns like foghorns by giving them
a tOot every now and then. But
another thing we have to think OF
is to be sure drivers behind us see
us. That's why it's so important to
have our stop-signal and tail-light
working when we're driving in fog.
So, when all is said and done,
driving in fog is just a matter of
having our headlights and tail
lights right and being a little more
careful. The Delaware Safety
Council says that if we do that, we
can drive our cars safely, even
through Natures stubborn obsta-
cles of mist and fog.

OFF THE CUFF

WE were among the many To-

Sandusky Monday evening to
watch the Daley Bros. circus per-
formance. 1t was an excellent
show, despite the rainy weather.
Think we enjoyed it almost as
much as our five-year-old nephew,
Denny Schmitt, and his pal of the
same age. They asked so many
questions and wanted to buy every
thing offered for sale that we were
exhausted and broke before the
show was over. 1t cost S1.S0 to
see the show, a pretty stiff tariff.
Years ago when the circus stopped
at Port Clinton, we felt like a mil
honaire if we had dime to spend.
