When injury cases were reported from our
''IabOratorles on the highways" we sepa-
rated the 1886 models from an Others and
found out whether the changes really made
them safer in the same types Of crashes.
Here IS what we learned:
Deer Ioclss. Our caseload Of 1000 per-
sons injured or exposed to injury in ACCT
dents all over the country shows US that
being thrown out Of car increases by five
times the chance Of being hurt or killed.
So we investigated the number Of times
doors popped open in older cars and found
they failed to hold more than half the time.
For this reason. redeSiened, stronger door
locks were provided for 1856 cars.
How are they working? The cheerful
fact IS that the chance Of doors opening in
1886 models is almost ORe-GhiTd lower. An
improved version Of this lock was later
installed on the SITS, and while we don't
have enough statistics to specify figure,
our preliminary analysis indicates that the
improvement has been even greater.
Here is the most heartening aspect: since
election is more responsible for the serious
ness of an injury than any other factor, the
most severe injuries are the ones that are
dropping most sharply. This is the result
Of just one change in our cars = redesigned
door locks. And these latches are now
standard equipment on all new cars.
Steering wheels. Another part Of our
cars that caused large number Of injuries
was the steering wheel and column. This
assembly was found responsible for two Of
every five injuries suffered by drivers. Enei-
neers carried on tests with lifelike dummies
and confirmed that the unyielding column
inflicted many chest-crushing wounds.
They designed a deep dish" wheel, one
in which the hub is recessed so the rim and
spokes viii soak up most Of the impact
force as they bend. This wheel is now
dramatically reducing dangerous injuries
although there are not enough facts yet
available to give statistical proof. In 1886
models with recessed hub wheels, we have
seen only one fatal case of crushed chest.
And this despite the fact that the inn
proved door latcheS are keeping more
drivers inside their cars, to be hit by the
wheel. Here is a case that illustrates the
effectiveness Of this innovation:
On a dry blacktop county road near
Tyler, Texas, farmer in car with an old
style steering wheel started to make a

What happened when new safety
designs wers tested on Us.
hIghways7 Here are the facts
uhis falls new cars will be he safeH me
amO industry has ever produced.
They're so much safer, in fact. that if all
the cars now on the highways were like the
new ones about half million Of US would
escape death or serious injury. And many
ofthe injuries that statistics predict wouldn't
happen at all.
To understand this, you should know
that the Cornell AutomOtive Crash Injury
Research project has been investigating the
effectiveness Of various changes made in our
cars. We have not concluded our study,
but can safely say that the American auto
has entered an era that promises TO make
it the safest in the world.
The great experiment started back in
1882, when we started the first scientific
investigation Of exactly how drivers and
passengers are injured when they have acct
dents. We didn't do this alone, Of course.
We have had the help Of police, doctors
and pubIie-health authorities In IS states.
Their combined reports Of highway
crashes gave US pattern Of injuries that
represented the most common driving con-
ditions and types Of accidents in the nation.
Although it was evident that better design

road-holding; surer brakes: increased WISH
safer than the machine Of ten years earlier,
the new facts focused attention on exactly
which parts Of cars were responsible for
1000, 900 injuries year. One Of our most
interesting discoveries was that injuries
suffered by occupants Of cars made between
1910 and 1855 varied little from year to year.
We gave our findings to the auto manu-
facturerS, who coupled them with their own
research. As result. they offered number

Market Report

It's tomato time in Delaware.
The drought makes local tomatoes
less plentiful than a year ago, but
in terms Of both quality and price,
tomatoes are still an outstanding
value here at the peak of the sea-
son. Prices are down considerably
from those a month ago, but re-
main higher than in 1856. Flavor
and keeping quality are currently
quite good
Select tomatoes that are firm,
smooth, plump and we'll colored.
Room temperatures from 55 to 20
degrees are best for tomatoes not
fully ripe. Never store unripened
tomatoes in the refrigerator be-
cause ripening will stop, much fla
vor will be destroyed and the fruits
will became watery. Use refriger-
atOr storage only after tomatoes
are fully ripe. Don't overlook the
numerous ways to serve tomatoes
in salads, grilled, stewed, stuffed
and IN sandwiches. If you wish to
peel them. dip them in hot water
for a minute or two, then immedi-
ately in cold water. The skin will
slip off easily. Or you may simply
stroke the skin with the back of
IA knife to facilitate it's removal.
Grapes are becoming. abundant
now that both eastern and western
crops are on the market. Coming
from California are the light green
Thompson Seedlessy Red Malaga
and large dark Ribier varieties
Western grapes have tightly adher-
ing skins in contrast to the Slip
skin Concord and Delaware vari-
cites from the east AS guide in
buying, loog for green firm stems
as a sign of freshness.
All meat prices remain relatively
high this week. Increases are noted
for veal and pork with beef and
lamb price tags largely unchanged.
Turkey and frying chicken are a
mong the most attractive meats
in terms of cOsts-per-serving.
Bluefish, butterfish, sea trout and
croakers are good choices this
week in fresh fish.
Other good value at Delaware
food stores include onions, cabbage,
squash, cucumbers, potatoes, celery,
peaches, bartlett pears, dried peas
and smoked picnics.
