The tar laches short- A bumper crop of corn picker accidents will be harvested by Illinois farmers this year--unless they are more careful than usual. That Was the prediction made by Floyd E. Morris, chairman of the Illinois Farm and Home Safety committee and vice president of the Illinois Agricultaral Association. "Carelessness is the chief reason farmers have corn picker accidents, " Morris said. "Every farmer knows a corn picker is a dangerous machine, but when they get in a hurry, they forget that fact. They also forget," he continued, one rule that should always be remembered by farmers when they're working in the corn fields: NEVER TRY TO UNCLOG. ADJUST, OIL OR GREASE OR CLEAN A CORN PICKER WHILE IT IS RUNNING! Forgetting tnijf rule cost ten Illisois farmers their lives in corn picker accidents last year, Morris said. More than eighty others suffered temporary injuries from pickers. Some seventy-five more were left with permanent marks of disability. NEW PB008AM IS DESIGNED TO SAVE ILLINOIS HIGHWAYS by Duane Andreas) Aroaaed Warriors Score 18-0 • •\ An aroused and improved Mc- Henry football team defeated a determined Marengo team here Friday night, 18 to 6 ,. After taking the opening kickoff and driving for a touchlown, the Warriors were never headed. The half-time score was 6 to 0, but a touchdown in each of the last two quarters iced the game. Don Freund carried the opening kick-off to the McHenry 49-yard line and soon after a 20-yard Golbeck to Andreas pass started the Morris urged farmers to be especially careful this year while harvesting the eight million acre corn crop in Illinois because picking conditions will probably be worse than usual. This is true, he said, because: (1) since corn was planted late this year, corn husking time will be later because farmers will be in a big hurry to get the corn out of the field; and (2) it will probably be rainy by the time most farmers get p.round to picking corn and mud always adds to the hazards of uch farming operations. "Following theBe rules can save ives, money and human suffering," Morris said. "Let's be careful." Warriors rolling. After several successive plunges, Freund carried the ball over from the 3-yard line. Midway in the third period, as Marengo was driving into Warrior territory, Fiepke of Marengo fumbled and Stan Alms plucked the ball out of the air and raced 40 yards to the Marengo 30-yard line. From there, after a series of line plays, Freund plunged over from the one-yard line. On this play Freund was forced from the game as a result of a twisted knee. McHenry completed their scoring late in the fourth quarter, when Andreas snatched a Marengo pass and raced 46 yards, down the side-line to the Marengo 1-yard line. From there Paul Marke bull- Ptmllng Question Answered If water seeks its own level, how can the surface of the ocean be curved? A level surface is one that Is horizontal, so it is at right angles to a line toward the center of the earth. Over a small area, a level surface is practically flat, but if it is extended far enough it follows the curvature of the earth. When you say that water "seeks its own level," you mean that all points of its surface tend to reach the same distance from the center of the earth, so the curved surface of the ocean is really level.

The township officials of Illinois have drafted a program to save Illinois highways from further destruction through enactment of laws at the forthcoming session of the legislature to curb abuses by heavy commercial trucking. The association at the concluding session of its annual forty-first convention, recommended, as part of its legislative program, that the legislature reduce the gross load limit for heavy commercial vehicles to the 20-ton limit for tractor- trailers which existed prior to 1945.
