Twelve-year-old Billy McClear
will literally come barreling down
the Soap Box Derby speedway on
June S0-and in a soap barrel at
that.
Both Billy and his pal. Arthur
Kramer, also IL. are building the
gravity-powered cars at Hillcrest
Children's Village, their home.
Young Bill took the literal trans
lation Of the Soap Box Derby and
put 1t to practical use In building
his racer.
However, instead of the con-
ventional soap box-seldom used
in this day of low, streamlined,
Derby coaster construction ~ he
found that racer body could be
fashioned more easily from an old
soap barrel.
How He Made Cockpit.
Billy made his cockpit by saving
out a section of the barrel, which
formerly held 100 pounds Of pow
dered soap. He then cut a slit out
of the bottom of the barrel and
ran his floorboard through.
THE rest should be easy" Billy
said. "a tall bushel basket will
serve as the forward part Of the
car"
Billy explained he will shove
the open end Of the basket into
the front of the open barrel. The
basket will be securely nailed to
a rounded bulkhead toward the
front of the fioorboard. The bot
tom of the basket is the nose of
the racer. Balsa wood will be
added to form rounded nose.
The boys barrel-basket car will
be cigar-shaped when finished
and covered with canvas.
Arthur's coaster is Streamlined
and modelled after an indianapolis
Speedway racing car. He plans to
cover it with old zinc plates given
to him by a lithograph company
here. His racer will be painted
white. The nose will be solid red
with flame-like streaks extending
toward the back.
Both the youngsters coaster
construction has been under the
direction of Robert E. Harrigan,
an American University senior and
a housefather at the village.
First Time in Race.
This is the first time boys from
Hillcrest will participate in the
race, and Derby talk has spread
throughout the village. Since the
boys began building their cars
three weeks ago, the workshop has
been jammed with the other SIS
children watching the coaster
pilots at work.
The moving force behind the
Derby activity there is Ernest M.

By the end of December, 1850
North Cardinals total paved road
mileage had risen for 16,148 Cat
January 1, 1950) to 20,802. The
unpaved mileage dropped from
46,O13 to 42,O1O, and for the first
time in its history North Caro-
lima had more paved county
roads than state highways (10,-
TIA VS.. 10,026).
The 4,654-mile increase in paw
ing on both systems, added dur
ing 1850, exceeds the distance
from Raleigh to Berlin, Germ
any, and represents the largest
addition Of paving to the high
way system since the Highway
Commission began its paving
program in the carly Juveniles.
The S2OO,OOO,OOO bond issue
program is now approximately
half finished and barring war,
time emergencies, could be COM
pleted within IS months to two
years. The program calls for the
hard-surfacing of 10000 miles Of
county roads and the Stabilizing
of an additional $4,000 miles for
all-Weather travel.
At the conclusion of the county
road program the Highway Com
mission plans to shift major en-
phasis to the primary highway
system. During 1850 the Com
mission launched a special $780,
900 primary highway study to
determine the current and future
needs of the system. All-time
traffic records were broken dur
ing the summer of 1850 on the
states mainline highways, and
current deficiencies Worsened as

BY WILLIAM D. SNYDER
Information Director

State Highway Commission
During 1850 the State Highway
Commission more than tripled
it's pace of roadbuilding-with
the substantial aid of a S20OOOO,.
600 bond issue, unlimited man,
power and materials and excell-
ent cooperation from the weather
and the bodybuilding industry.
Volume Of work tinished-both
on primary and secondary roads
far surpassed that done in any
similar year of the Commissions
history.
Most of the expansion took
place in the secondary road field
where private contractors and
the states roadbuilders hard
surfaced in IL months almost as
many miles as were paved during
the entire 10 years since the
state took over county road work
in 1881. At the same time more
work was finished on mainline
highways than ever before in the
Commissions history. This was
made possible when bond issue
money freed regular highway
funds previously allocated to the
secondary road field.
Over $500 miles of secondary
roads were paved during 1850
in the states 100 counties. Addi-
tional thousands of miles receiv-
ed sterilization treatment to
place them in all-Weather condi-
ton. Average cost of paving to-
tailed about $4,000 a mile, con.
siderably under original esti-
mates.
The Commission let contracts
for road work totaling about
S58,OOO,O00 compared with $24,.
100000 for 1949. All surplus
funds accumulated because of
increased traffic on North Caro-
lina's highways went to special
primary road projects selected
by the Commissions engineering
staff. Among these special pro-
iects were several four-lane high.
ways in the states most longest
ed areas centering around Char
lotte and Greensboro. Other spe-
cial funds went to badly needed
bridge projects on mainline
The volume and cost of work
done on the secondary road pro.
gram naturally varied in differ.
ent sections of the state. The re.
latively flat terrain and sandy
soil of the southeastern Pied
mont section of North Carolina
provided the best areas for rapic.
and inexpensive road construc'
ton. Because of rougher terrain.
poorer availability of materials
and weather conditions, road
building was more expensive an
more difficult to finish speedily
in the mountainous part of tn
state. Swampy conditions in the
extreme east also influenc
roadbuilding costs.
AS one of only four states
handling all county road work,
North Carolina has had ample
in testing the quality
of various types of secondary
road construction materials and
techniques. The Highway Com
missions soils laboratory, con-
sidered one of the best in the ma
ton, has been accommodating data
on soils since the mid-thirties. 1t
checks soils on almost every road
hard-surfaced by the Commits
sion.

way Engineer, states that the
