Scientific Report
BY BR YANT EVANS
The Copley News Service

1t is three times as dangerous to
drive at night as it is in the daytime
if all other traffic conditions, ex-
cept for the dark, remain un-
changed.
This ratio is reported by the
highway research board of the Ma
tional Academy of Sc ienc e s-Na-
tiOnal Research Council.
Some of the things the scientists
reported in the study are surpris-
ing. More of them are facts that
most of us might have suspected,
but which we would choose to ig-
more.
One that surprised me was the
evidence that distance judgement is
much poorer after dark. Many in
stances were observed when dri-
Vers passed other cars in the face
of onComing traffic with less than
200 feet to spare. Two cars ap-
preaching each other at SO miles
an hour can close a gap of 1OOfeet
In about l : seconds.
EYES ADAPTABILITY
STUDIED
Quite bit of study was given to
the ability of drivers eyes to adapt
to the dark. One researcher repor-
ted that it takes at least 20 minutes
for the eyes to adapt to darkness,
bur the adaptation can be destroyed
quickly by sudden exposure to
bright lights.
Older drivers should be more
wary of in-the-dark driving than
younger ones. One group above 80
required 239 times more light to
notice an object, even after ade-
quate adaptation, than a teen-ager
did.
The driver who insists on bright
headlights and high beams may be
a killer and never know it. A study
showed that the glare of bright
headlights can sharply reduce the
vision of an oncoming driver for
periods ranging from five to seven
seconds. That is enough time to get

field work with the youth. The orr
entation on list of discussions
lead by various professional peo-
pie in the community, workshops in
child growth and development,
sNll-seS sions in games, song
lea ding and teaching of RATS.
Ralph Johns, Director of Commu-
nifty Services for the Navajo Tribe
addressed the group earlier in the
week on the detectives of the recre-
alton program in relation to COM
munity development.
Three of the
students taking part in the project
are being employed by the Navajo
Tribe and will be dispatched to out
lying communities when they have
completed the orientation.

Mrs. Nora Benton, educational

at Chilocco, Okla.
Mrs. Benton is a member of the

She received her bachelors and

The Navajo Tribe withdrew a
parcel of Tribal Land at Chinle,
Arizona for use by the Board of

Chinle, Apache County, for con-
struction of new high school fa-

The tract of land is located at

The District has applied to the

For the fifth successive year,
select group Of Indian and non-In-
dian college students from a wide
area has gathered at the Gallup In
dian Community Center to apply
their talents to new assignment.
The ten students being oriented this
week, will be conducting rural re-
creation programs for children in
outlying Indian communities,
mostly in Mckinley County. They
will be working directly with local
recreation committees whose
chapter councils have invited the
Gallup Indian Community Center to
assist them in developing a joint
program to benefit their children
and youth during the summer
months. Supervising and directing
the program will be Kenneth Mac
Lean of Boston, who has returned
again this year for the project and

killed. This blind period, inciden-
tally, is for drivers with median
sensitivity. There are drivers who
are blinded for longer periods than
that.
FOLLOWING CLOSELY
DANGEROUS AT NIGHT
Closely following another car
after dark is much more dangerous
than it is in the daylight. a
than it is in the daylight. A study
showed that many drivers travel
with only quarter of a second
headway between their front bump
er and another cars rear bumper.
1t takes up to three seconds for
driver to make a difficult or COM
plex response to sudden crisis.
The slowing down of perception
due to darkness can mean the fa-
tai difference between taking this
kind of a chance at night and in the
daytime.
Another study shows that the
fellow "who has no trouble stay
ing awake" on an all-night drive
is indeed rare fellow. 1t wa found
that in nine out of 10 test ca Ses,
drivers who drove three hours dur
ing their ordinary sleep time be-
came uncontrollably drowsy.
On & long trip, it turns out, it
is big mistake to drive through
bright sunlight all day and keep dri-
wing into the darkness. 1t is har-
der to accommodate. No mention
was made of the special case of
Westerners who drive through a
light reflecting desert, but this
must make the transition to dark
ness doubly difficult.
For all these hazards of night
driving there seems to be only one
solution proposed--better lighting
of highways.
Increasing the illumination on
100 miles of Detroit streets re-
duced accidents on those streets
from rs per cent of the citywide
total to 26 per cent. Experimental
low-level lighting on a stretch of
English highway reduced accidents
by so per cent while the accident
rate for England as whole went
up 20 per cent.

Your Congressman
Joe m. Mon1oYu

Congressman Joseph M. Mon-
toya OHM. to-day expressed gen.
eral disappointment in the four
point program being studied at the
White House to assist the de-
pressed lead and zinc mining in
dustry. In this regard, Congress-
man Montoya together with Con-
gressional Representatives of nine
lead and zinc producing States re-
Gently met with Assistant Secreta-
ry of the Interior, John Kelly, at
the White House wherein the Sec
retary outlined proposed plan to
assist domestic producers.
In a letter today to Secretary
Kelly, Congressman Montoya sta
ted that he was not convinced that
the barter program, whichis ma
jor factor of the plan, would in any
way help alleviate the situation and
accomplish the purpo oses which the
Secretary had in mind; namely, in
creasing the price of lead and zinc
by two cents. The Secretary had
proposed the barter of agricultural
C ON m o tiles of approximately
$65, ,OOO, 900 for us, 600 tons of lead
and $50, 900 tons of zinc.
The Congressman further indi-
Gated that the purchase of lead and
zinc stockpiles in this country
would only help the foreign produ-
GERS and would constitute no lift,
much less an incentive, to local
producers.
In his letter to Secretary Kelly,
Congressman Montoya further sta
ted: 81 fully appreciate the interest
that the White House and the Admi-
nistration are taking in providing
for a study of this problem. While
your suggestions have been COM
municated to us in a spirit of frien-
dly, open and analytical discussion,
it is my hope that you will not aban-
don your study. believe that a
sound economic approach can and
should be devised for this segment
of our mining industry. In any pro-
gram which you m G hit consider,
there should be a perceptible goal
of helping the small dome site pro-
ducers without, of course, ignoring
the other domestic producers in
this country"
Congressman MOntoya empha-
sized that the current urgency in
the lead-zinc mining industry is
underscored by the complete Shut
down of several mines in New Me-
xico. Production in New Mexico has
fluctuated to such an extent during
the last ten years from 7,O21 tons
of lea d and 5O,975 tons of zinc
mined in 1852 to almost a stand
still in 1854, at which time produc-
tion of lead reached a bottom of
887 tons and only 6 tons of zinc.
Production during 1860 was only
thirty-five percent of normal.

SEAMS
TO ME.
Make q Summer Wardrobe
Of Removable Hat Bands

I love summer straw hats,
but what q nuisance it is
trying to juggle them so that
a dress co-ordinateS with one
of the bands. However, an
easy way to solve this prob
lem is to buy a basic hat
shape in natural or white
straw and make bands to
match your dresses. Or, if
you haven't matching fabric,
tie in the color or decora-
ton in some way so that
the final effect is perfect
coordination.
Here are four simple ideas.
Try them, or use them as a
guide for any Of your own
ideas.
Fabric Band Figure Az:
Using either remaining fab
ric from a dress or one that
co-ordinates, cut a strip
about 25 inches long, plus
whatever is necessary for a
bow or loop. (Yardage ac-
turally depends on the size
of the CROWN. Make it as
narrow or as wide as you
wish, but it will be more ef-
fective if it is the latter.
Machine baste along one long
edge; draw thread slightly
and fit around crown. Draw
only enough to enable band
to mold to the shape Of the
crown.
Then, stitch seam binding
to all four edges; fold under
edges the desired width and
length and hand tack bind
ing to band with invisible
stitches. Finish with a loop
or bow and tack in place.
