Z SAFETY TIPS With the coming of fall and winter, there are quite a few factors that should come \o the attention of drivers, especially on rural roads. One is the tailing of leaves on any road that lias moisture on the surface. The leaves stick to the road bed and when you brake your car, a skid is inevitable. As a precaution, keep, a safe distance from the car ahead. In looking over the accident reports that have occurred ins i d e t h e c i t y l i m i t s , I h a v e found that we have covered quite a few rear-end collisions which should never have happened and to the best of my knowledge have happened only because someone was trying to beat the stop and go lights. Violators can be issued a summons for a court appearance. by Chief Grobel ACT ON LICENSES On Tuesday of this week, a list of new revocations and suspensions of driver licenses was released by Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier as follows: Revocation, Florence Nellis, McHenry, driving while intbxicated; suspensions: Alfred Ballstaadt and C1 e t u s Shea, McHenry, Walter Bert, Lily Lake, McHenry; Vincent Casey and John Strohn, Woodstock; and Robert Tanton, Algonquin, all three violations.

Helpful Hints For Homemakers Watts, volts, amperes--yet», women know that these things somehow affect their household electrical appliances. But too Often that's about all they know. So Frank W. Andrew, agricultural engineer at the University of Illinois, answers these questions that homemakers frequently ask about electricity: Q. Just what are volts, amperes and watts? A. They're units of electrical measure. A volt is electrical pressure operating like the air pressure in a tire. Amperes are the quantity of electric current in a wire conductor, as a certain number of gallons of water flow from a faucet in a minute. And watts measure the work done by electricity, as a cupful or teaspoonful measures ingredients. Q. How do these operate together? A. Voltage (120 for lights and small appliances) multiplied by amperage (fuse rating of 15 to 20) equals wattage. This electrical law--volts times amperes equals watts -- explains why a 20-ampere fuse on a 120-volt circuit will blow when more than 2,400 watts of electricty are plugged in at one time. Q. When a fuse blows, should f get a bigger fuse? A. No. A fuse is like a safety valve. It v^ill handle only as many watts as it is designed to handle safely.

Q. How can I tell whether a circuit Is overloaded? A. To find the total wattage a circuit is carrying, first unscrew the fuse. 'Add up the wattage of appliances operating on the circuit controlled "by this fuse (when you unscrew the fuse, these appliances won't work.) You may find that some circuits are overloaded vyhile others are loafing. Q. Will a fuse blow when a circuit is overloaded? A. Eventually, but perhaps not immediately. Meanwhile, though, the power is reduced and appliances will be sluggish and not operate efficiently.
