Tips Listed
For Driving
On Snow-Ice

Starting and stopping are the
most difficult parts of driving
in snow and ice.
Accelerate and brake gently
and slowly to reduce the dang
ers of wheel spinning and skid
ding.
Tire chains, cinderS or coarse
gravel under the drive wheels
provide more traction if you
can't keep wheels from spin
ming. Lowering tire pressure
does not help.
Don't lock brakes. Pump the
brake pedal up and down gent
ly instead of using steady,
heavy pressure.
Remember that it takes from
three to IL times as much dis
tance to stop on snow or ice
than it does on dry pavement.
Watch traffic ahead and allow
that extra space for stopping.
Don't change speed or direc-
ton abruptly or you might skid.
If you do skid, turn in the di-
rection the rear wheels are
skidding to correct it.
Slow down well in advance
of a curve, then maintain your
speed steadily through it.
If stuck in snow or icy ruts,
rock the car. Spinning wheels
make an icy hollow which
makes your car stick worse.
A wet ice cube is more slip
perry than a dry one. In the
same way, road ice at 80 de-
grees can be twice as slippery
as at 10 degrees.

College Students Publish Special
 Progress Edition

University or Alaska students produced special 20-page edition of the Polar Star newspaper last week, presenting for the first time an overall view of the past, present and future of the University.
 The Lathrop Hall Edition is cen- tered around the opening of the new Lathrop Hall, 144-man dormitory this month.
 Staff members stated that since the University is in perhaps the greatest transitional period of it's history, they felt that this was a good time to evaluate the progress of the complex institution.
 They said that another purpose for the edition was to provide a historical record of the college and university-this is the first time that so much information has been bathered up and presented in one place.
 The Polar Star staff also wishes to present full scale picture of the University to the people of Alaska and elsewhere and show it's import ant link with other activities of the state.
 Students hope to make the edition available to Fairbanks residents thro1oh local bl1SinesS houses this week.

new Department of Economic De- velopment and Planning would give greater stature and increased attention to program, the import of which is second to none in this state government"
 Within the department would exist division of industrial devel- opment, an Alaska travel division and division of planning and re- search
 As a companion measure, the governor said he would ask the legislature to approve bill estab- fishing an advisory committee on economic development. Egan created such a committee last October by executive order.
 Great Opportunities
 The governor said that the pros- pect for developing Alaska's econ omy on a sound and stable footing an economy based on the states vast natural wealth-is present to- day as never before in our history
 He termed the story of Alaskas growth and progress since state l hood as 'one of the most inspiring stories in our nations history"
 Some day said Egan, "that story will be told. But perhaps we who have lived this story in all its many details are not the ones to tell 1t. That story will best be left to those who can view the momen- tous events of this era with greater perspective.
 T. for one" he continued, much prefer to have lived this story than to tell. To few people has come the opportunity for achievement that has been and is now ours"

Continued from Page D

Continued from Page D legislature the steps being taken by his administration to develop trade with Pacific rim countries, par tieularly Japan.
 He noted that numerous delega- tions" of Japanese business and mineral experts visited his office during the past year to discuss possible investments in Alaska.
 Hugh J. Wade, Alaskas secretary of state, and Phil Holdsworth, com missioner of natural resources, both visited Japan during the year, the governor said, to further incourage interest in expanded trade.
 Mineral Potential
 Governor Egan specifically men, toned mineral deposits in Alaska that had been under close scrutiny by private investors for possible development During the year, ex plorations were made into the Kasaan Peninsula and Badsfield Canal iron deposits near Ketchi- kan and the Snettisham iron de- posit near Juneau, he said.
 Also mentioned for possible early development was the Tuxedni Bay iron deposit on Cook Inlet, the Klukwan iron deposit, and the Ber- ing River and Matanuska coal fields.
 Governor Egan disclosed that a ''Well-knoWn, responsible Indiana company" has indicated interest in utilizing Point Lay and Cape Lis bourne coal in volume, to be mixed with coal from eastern states which would result in a satisfactory pro- duct for export
 He further revealed that represnt- atives of the Kennecott Copper Corporation have been extensively studying the Ruby Creek copper deposit near Kobuk, northwest of Nome. The governor said he has been informed that the Kobuk area "could provide an operation larger than the Bigham open pit copper mine located near Salt Lake City, Utah."
 Other Points
 Other points noted by the gov- ernor were:
 By the end of May feasibility study on Rampant Dam will be re- leased The report will prove con- clusively that if Rampant Dam is authorized by Congress there will be enough potential customers to utilize its power.
 By late spring the Alaska De- velopment Corporation hopes to have resolved existing legal and technical problems and be ready to place it's initial bond sale on the market.
 3-More miles of highway will be built during the 1862 season than in any other year in Alaskas his tory.
 An overall economic develop ment plan for the state will be pub hshed by May, included in this re- port will be suggested long-range programs for future growth.
 Greater Coordination
 "As our economic development program accelerates," the governor said, it is becoming increasin0lv apparent that greater coordination of all these development efforts is needed"
