The flagrant violations of the •peed laws by the many motorists i •n the McCullom Lake road has t been checked, thanks U the Jid co-operation of Sheriff Fred, and our newly elected road commissioner, Chuck Miller. In the past it was not uncommon to see the : cars looming down this stretch of road at speeds in excess of 60 miles per |»our and in many instances pass a stopped school bus without reduction in speed. Considering the fact that this road out of necessity< M also used by pedestrians, mostly •ur youngsters, one can readily see that the action taken by these two elected officers was to protect the people of McCullom Lake and to promote safety for the motorist as well. The many accidents on the McCullom Lake road in the past year have all Sbeen attributed to high speed driving. We were all aware of that fact, but no one would-do anything about it. , It was the Screwey Dozen, headed by its president, Jerry Cermak, who finally brought this hazard to the attention of Stwtitt Audi©* of Commissioner Miller vitt the remit that ttye road through our community if now posted with speed limit signs and will be patrolled. At the first offense the motorist will be let off with a warning and his license number noted, second offense will result in arrest. Our survey for the three days sines the signs have been installed proved /that the average motorist to 4 law abiding citizen, especially, the tmCkdrivers and the pilots of the W. A.
