Q. How can I prevent some of my pumps from constantly slipping off the heel of my foot? A.

"Thou Shalt Not Park", "Dears Crossing", or "Smile, You're On Radar". Signs like these are the pride of local Voads-and -streets committee chairmen and other well-intentioned citizens. But the precise meaning of such "cute" signs -- and those unfunny signs that give a confusing abundance of directional information ~ often are missed by motorists traveling at highway speeds. In some localities, foreign visitors driving in this country are confused by many traffic signs because of unfamiliarity with the language. There's hope for the American sign system, however. Government officials are taking a long look at an international symbol-sign system used throughout most of Europe and in some parts of Latin America and Canada. Most symbol signs are wordless,, Others use a minimum of words or numbers to convey their intended meaning. For example, the "Do Not Enter" sign is a red circle with a horizontal black bar through it. "Pedestrian crossing" is simply a triangle with WED., APR., 24, 1968 - PLAINDEALER - PG. the outline of a man walking inside it. "No U-Turn" isared circle with a diagonal line slashing through an upsidedown "U". A speed-limit sign is a red circle with a number inside. In all, there are about 100 different symbols in the system but -once learned by driverst these signs provide informatio at a glance -- which is about all you have time for at highway speed. All the signs are in bright easy-to-read colors that command attention, and all are reflectorized for easy visibility at night. Officials in the countries that use the signs report significant reductions in nearly all types of automobile accidents, which indicates that sign confusion has a great deal to do with driving mishaps. Hopefully, symbol signs will eventually be adopted for use in this country. Until then, American motorists will have to make do with a system of traffic Signs that recently prompted one magazine to publish a cartoon showing a multi-lane expressway jammed with cars and dominated by a huge overhead sign; filled with instructions, includ-J ing, "This Lane For Slow Read-: ers". _________ USE THE CLASSIFIED "• EDDIE the il S0yS*% 65% In 1967 the total percentage of successful bond and tax referend*' dropped to 63 percent in Illinois,'1 its lowest level in the past four years.
