William M. Short, chief of

guest speaker at the dinner
meeting of the Smyrna Lions
Club Monday night.
After telling of the great
increase of casualties on the
highways, with damage in the
millions, he paid tribute to
the effectiveness of the student
driver training in the schools.
He said that strong backing
should be given this training
program for students, saying
''they are the best drivers on
the road today"
He deplored the apathy of
people, who drive with only
secondary thought, and said that
the 'majroity of fatal accidents
occur In the 24-60 year age
group.
The speaker emphasized that
the laws are not known by the
average driver; that speed is
not the only hazard, and there
is need for use of signals in
making proper turns.
The answer is in education,
he said, as he advocated a com =
munity-wide project on better
driving conducted by the Lions,
advising that tall bear down
on it. %
Francis B. Gebhart, member
of the Lions Club, recommended
a survey by the club to find
If there is need for training,

ODea was born in Australia.
He attended Melbourne Uni

coming to the United States.
At only 16 he was chosen as
an All-AuStralian halfback.
After enrolling at Wiscon-
sin, he played fullback and, at
times, halfback on the Badger
teams Of 1895 to 1899. He was
captain the later two years and
was named to Walter Camps

ODea could dropkick the

said it took Griffith longer to
stop Paret because it is harder
to knock out a man who has

At the same time Croft sug-

count in favor of a quick
mental test. He said that Just
because a fighter gets up be-
fore the count of 10 doesn't
mean he has regained his
