TffiTtfcREira¥ ^LASdealeb '»ii r? ' j& „, .'M McCullom Lake News By Eve Levesqu© Extension Granted Monday, Oct. 10, is the absolute deadline for purchasing vehicle tags and dog licenses. The extension is - necessary because of .too many tax payers waiting until the last minute. The rush was greater than the village clerk could ^handle and all the paper work could not be processed in time. The police force has been instructed to prosecute fully any violations after this date. The location for obtaining the licenses is at the home of Emma r'yritz, located at the west end of Fountain Lane. A sign bearing the words "village clerk" in front of her home is clearly visible from the street. If you still can't find it, ask anyone for directions. Ladies of the Lake The Ladies of the Lake held a special meeting Thursday, Sept. 29, for election of officers. The women holding the new offices are Marie Howe, president; Elma Nelson, vice-president; Eleanor Ebey, secretary; and Betty Murray, treasurer. m New gate signs have been purchased by the club and will be installed shortly. All entrances into the village will be marked as gate one, gate two, etc., which will simplify matters greatly for anyone giving directions or following them. The ladies also voted to purchase street signs for each corner and these will be installed along with the gate signs by a committee from the- Cullom-Knoll association.

Bye, week! bye now, see you next (Editor's Note) Art Stuhlfeier, long in - the newspaper business himself, called the Plaindealer on Monday to offer congratulations to the McCullom Lake correspondent, Eve Levesque, and to the paper during National Newspaper Week. He was enthusiastic in his praise of the service provided, to the McCullom Lake community by its correspondent. The use of radar speed detection devices for the enforcement of traffic laws and the prevention of traffic law violations has been fully endorsed by Thomas tf. Boate, manager of the accident prevention department of the Association of Casualty and Surety Companies, it has been announced. Police use of radar speed detection equipment has been a highly controversial subject for some time. Those opposed to it have claimed chiefly that radar is ineffective as an accident preventive measure and that when used as a speed detection device it is unfair to motorists, j Mr. Boate, formerly head of : the traffic division of the Penn- ' sylvania State Police, said that, j "our national highway toil is ap- I proaching 40,000 deaths and ohe- I and-one-half million injuries anj nually. This appalling situation [ has created an emergency demanding the use of every lawful [means of driver control available | to provide strict and protective | enforcement of the traffic law i by our police and courts. j "The reductions in traffic ac- ; cidents and deaths in those | states making full and decisive i use of radar detection devices i should silence claims that raflar j is ineffective. And in a day when i speed is the largest single factor j in highway deaths, we cAnnot I afford to appease violators with Modern Living COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE. Comfortable? Yes... but more than that. A bedside telephone offers convenience and protection, too. It brings peace of mind worth far more than the low extra cost. Wouldn't you like to enjoy "modern living" convenience?

"To claim that the use of advanced scientific devices like radar is 'unfair' to those who Jwould violate the law is a tra- ,yesty that approaches outright mockery of the value of human life, it is instead grossly unfair to the nation's hundreds of thousands of law-abiding motorists •to jeopardize their safety by continuing to use out-dated methods tor detecting and apprehending Irresponsible traffic law violators. v "Radar devices provide the inosK^accurate practical method yet available for detecting motorists who deliberately violate posted speed limits. To rule against the use of radar evidence is to shackle police and courts and to endanger motorists, pedestrians and enforcement officers with procedures barely suitable for the roads and vehicles of the 1920's. "For twenty years we have been attempting t o provide enough police to patrol our highways as they should be patrolled. But we are no closer to that ideal situation today than we were at the outset. In the absence of this accomplishment we shall either continue killing and injuring human beings in epidemic proportions or we shall adopt some reasonable method of assuring proper traffic law enforcement. "Therefore, I feel impelled to fully endorse the use of radar speed detection equipment as a sound and honest method of traffic law enforcement and accident prevention." The association's statement was made after William M. Greene of Connecticut, chairman of the National Conference of State, Safety Coordinators, announced that states using a radar research car this summer in connection with the nation-wide "Slow Down and Live" campaign had "unanimously reported favorable results in tooth vehicle speed control and in official and public reaction." The car and a radar technician made available by New York University's Center for Safety Education are on a nine week tour of mid-western and western states. f SAFETY PROGRAM The opening of the University of Illinois football sea'son Saturday, Oct. i, when the Ulini met the Iowa state team at Champaign- Urbana, also marked the opening for the third successive year of Gov. William G. Stratum's football traffic safety program. The governor's action in requesting motorists to hold speed down to 50 miles per hour in the heavy traffic to and from Chftmpaign-Urbana has' beeh crtdited by safety experts with CUting travel accidents. Signs reading "Football Traffic Do Not Exceed 50 M.P.H." were erected on Fridays and removed Mondays of football weekends at intervals along various roads.
