SECTION 2-PAGE1 - PL AINDEA LER - WED., DEC., 4, 1974 Sm off Repairs Make Difference In Wlntir, Driving "Why handicap yourself on hazardous winter roads? You add to the danger of driving by putting off small mechanical repairs," says George Young, University of Illinois Extension adviser in McHenry county. "A worn windshield wiper blade does not clear your windshield. You have to see to avoid collisions. So replace worn wiper blades. It just doesn't make sense to risk your life and expensive automobile to save a few dollars," insists Young. And Young adds, "Make certain your defroster works. Fogging and ice on your wind­ shield means driving blind. A snow brush and scraper in the car - plus anti freeze solution in the windshield washer - help dear your view." According to Young, brakes should be equalized to avoid skids. Equal pull on all wheels is vital for driving control. He explains that tires should be kept at recommended pressures in cold weather. And he warns that bald tires are always a danger. Regular tires should have a deep tread for the best traction. Snow tires are a big help in snow, but not on ice - - unless they have studs. Because low temperatures drain power from your battery, Young suggests having your battery tested often. | SERVICE NEWS } The data will be used in determining the placement of additional hydrophone§x®i various underwater locations for the Barking Sands Un­ derwater Range Expanision project.

POETS CORNER REQUIEM It is cold, drab November The beauty of Summer is gone And in place of tall, stately trees Luxurious with heavy green There are gaunt skeletons Towering, gloomily Above a dull, ugly landscape Whose face is scarred With the brown, dead growth Of weeds and grass All that is left Of the glory of Summer Skeletons whose branches Seem as giant arms Reaching, grotesquely Far into the uncertain light of dusk Groping, mayhap, for lost souls Astray from the tomb The wind, whistling shrilly Disturbs not the dead And the almost dead But seems only to add to their lifelessness Summoning forth ghosts To frolic eerily In the murky dimness Of November twilight By Harry Breen Pay iffore "We Sell Far Less" IMPORTED CHEQUER'S SCOTCH CHEQUERS SCOTLAND 4 98 FIFTH FVCC • 1- MINIATURE BTL.
