Map Reading
Can Tell You
Where To Go
By Martha Johnson
Dodge Safety Consultant

THE NAVIGATOR for the
family car probably has the
same trouble I used to have.
How to read complicated road
maps!
Map reading isn't difficult.
Those squiggley lines, abstract
little symbols and the numbers
in circles, squares, boxes and
shields mean something and
make reading a map fun.
The map legend" viii explain
the various symbols. United
States highways are indicated
by shields with the highway
numbers in them, state highways
by circled numbers and country
roads by boxes with route num-
bers in them.
The more important the road
the thicker the line on the map.
Different kinds of lines indi-
cate the type of road.
Here's special helpful trick
| find useful. / turn the map so
the highway ! ann travelling is
pointing the same way as the
road on the map. Although the
names may be sideways or up-
side down, il makes it easier to
know If a right or left turn is
coming up.
While on the highway I keep
in mind that several routes may
share the same section of the
road, so look for signs indicat-
ing where the route turns or
changes.
As 7 found out, a little con-
centration and practice are all
that is needed to become a first
class navigator

Virginia Planning
Teacher Insurance

RICHMOND, May IA (AP).
The Virginia Educational
Association is planning a group
medical insurance setup for its
$4,000 members and their fam
lilies.
DR.. Robert F. Williams, ex-
ecutive secretary of the YEA.
said yesterday the plan would
be the first for Virginia teach
ers on a Statewide basis and
would be similar to those Of
fered by other professional
groups.
The proposed policy would:
/. Pay all hospital and sur
gical costs up to $500 and 80
per cent of such costs there
after, not to exceed $4,000 for
each individual covered during
a calendar year.
2. Pay 80 per cent of all
general medical expenses for
out-patient care after the first
500, not to exceed $4,000 for
each individual during a CAL
endar year.
Alternate features would in
clude a $4,000 accidental
death clause and a term life
insurance clause providing COW
erage based on the policy
holders age.

question had been decided in
the District.
Lower Court Upheld
The decision upheld a lower
court verdict by Judge Frank
II. Myers. Judge Myers had
noted that despite his youth
in years. plaintiff (Duley) had
shown every evidence OF eman-
cipation from any limitations
or standards Of years as a test
OF his ability 10 protect and
support himself"
The boy had left his parents
more than a year before his
marriage and was self-support-
ing. he noted.
THE court would have a diff
ferent view. II the young couple,
through the opportunities OF
the moment, were married In
haste. without counsel OF warm
ing and Immediately there
after realized that they had
been hasty and misled," the
judge said.
Mr.. Duley's conduct. Judge
Myers added, makes pointless
the youths contention that the
court should protect and help
him because Of his years. Mr.
Duley should be required to &C
cept his marital status until he
has a valid reason for divorce,
Judge Myers ruled.

Under the new Virginia law,
any student may obtain at least
