Police Chief Scores Motor Scooter Drivers- An appeal to parents who have youngsters owning motor scooters was made by Chief of Police W.

D. Rayfield Friday. The chief asked the parents to remind their children of the rules of safe driving. "The driver of a motor scooter has the same responsibilities as the driver of an automobile." the chief told the parent's. "They must realize that as young drivers they must accept those responsibilities," Rayfield said, adding, "Many of the youngsters now driving motor scooters do not realize the dangers involved in careless driving." The Chief apparently referred to demonstrations by groups of motor scooter drivers who ganged up on automobile drivers and mace passes "fighter plane" style, cutting in and our of traffic.

Police officers say it is a nightly practice for the youngsters to form gangs of 15 to 20 scooters and fighter plane." The chief left the impression that strict enforcement measures would be taken unless the practice is halted. Offer Manufacturers First-Hand Contacts State manufacturers seeking defense contracts will have the opportunity of nfaking first-hand contacts at the Armed Forces Small Business Exhibit to be held in Atlanta on September 10-12 according to W. E. Taylor of Louisville, chairman of the Mississippi Economic Council's manufacturers committee. Twenty-seven prime contractors, including two from Mississippi, will have booths set up at the exhibit.

Mr. Taylor said. On display in the booths will be items which the prime manufacturers are interested in sub-letting. The Mississippi firms scheduled to have display booths are M-R-S Manufacturing Company. Flora; and the Elvair Corporation of Natchez.

In addition to the private booths by manufacturers, the various armed forces will have information booths. "All in all, it appears that a manufacturer seeking a sub-contract can get a pretty quick answer at the exhibit," Mr. Taylor said. "At least the small manufacturer can find out just how he nay be able to fit into the government's present procurement program by attending the exhibit." The exhibit is open to any manufacturer, the cnairman said.
