9 scon BRADY ExtraLl'You Can Make a MHHon" Adults ir Of i plllllilllilliilllll vidual anving is still the main cause of serious accidents in South Dakota, according to information available in the State's annual Statistical Report of the Traffic Accident Bureau for 1949. For the first four months of the year, 90 per cent of the traffic accidents in South Dakota were single car accidents where only one car was involved, Carroll Stinson, safety director noted. This indicates the individual responsibility for hishway safety. A summary of the 1949 report shows that 30 per cent of all the pedestrian deaths and injuries involved children under nine years of age and an additional 30 per cent involved persons 45 years of age and older. Teenagers accounted for 12.5 per cent of the drivers involved in all accidents and 17.4 per cent of those in fatal accidents.

Road Defects Minor About two-thirds of all motor vehicle accidents occur on a straight, level, dry roadway and about 75 per cent of these in clear weather. Various road defects, including foreign materials (ice and snow) on the roadway, are listed as the causes of nine per cent of all accidents in the report. Defective brakes, headlights out, poor steering mechanism and smooth or worn out tires are the vehicular defects which are listed most often as causes of accidents. Of the 134 persons killed in accidents in the state during 1949, 111 or about 83 per cent were in rural areas. Of the 1,281 injured in accidents 846 were in rural areas and 435 in the urban districts.

Another breakdown of the 134 fatalities shows that 110 of them were males and 24 females. The majority of pedestrian accidents either occurred at an intersection where there was no signal, crossing: at a non-intersection or playing: in a roadway. Largest single defect of drivers in accidents appears to be intoxi cating liquors. Of the 530 drivers in accidents who listed defects, 283 had been drinking, 54 had been asleep, 20 were fatigued and the re mainder had bodily defects such as poor eyesight or hearing. Tree Planting Development Set by State $100,000 Pittman-Robertson Cover Program Gains Approval Pierre, June 14 The South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks commission approved a $100,000 Pitt- man-Robertson coyer development program at a meeting held at the Pickerel lake fish hatchery near Waubay, it was announced today.

As proposed by the commission, the program will make it posible to increase the number of tree planting plots from the 100 now being developed to approximately 180 for 1950.

Thousands of Carp Are Stored in Pond at Big Stone Lake Wilmot, S. June 14 Thousands of carp are still in the storage pond on the shore of Big Stone lake northeast of here. These fish were taken from Big Stone lake in seining operations in the late winter and placed in the storage pond when the Ice broke up.

Originally there were about 000 pounds of carp placed in the pond, and all but 35,000 pounds have been sold and removed. The seining was done by the Randall seining crew of Browns Valley, and Mr. Randall supervises the storage pond. The carp are sold to eastern concerns. The fish can be seen swimming about in the pond and water is pumped in from the lake to keep the fish alive.

An apartment for the caretaker is on tne second noor ana tne students have made a chapel out of the remaining rooms. On third floor is the Wesley Clubber publications office. The Wesley Clubber is the Wesley paper which is published every three weeks by the students. The basement has recreation room complete with a dart toss, ping pong tables, and horseshoe pits. Folk games are often played here because there is much room.

Every morning there is a breakfast fellowship. Students come and prepare their breakfast, and while they are eating, discuss books or current topics. On Sunday morning, there is a breakfast Sunday schol at 9 a. m. After the breakfast, the group goes in a body to church.

Tuesday is cabinet meeting and Thursday evening at 9 p. m. is midweek vespers. The vespers are student planned and presented. The student director has a conference with each cabinet member every week.

Parties at the Wesley house are held often. "Feed Your Face" parties are very popular after basketball games. There is always food and the students choose whatever they want to do for entertainment. Group singing, games, and just talking are favorite pastimes. "Skeptic's Corner" Is a favorite activity in the wintertime.

Students gather for coffee and just talk. Sometimes the discussions are planned, but most of the time they are very informal. Picnics and roller skating parties take tnp piace 0f ind00r parties in spring. To the average girl and boy on campus, the Wesley house offers a place for her or him to forget studying and relax. There is always someone at the Foundation and the studnets who go regularly are one happy family.

Christian fellowship is the backbone of the Wesley Foundation. Moisture Needed for Milbank Crop Milbank, S. June 14 Crops in these parts are doing nicely, despite lack of rainfall. Rye is headed out and making rapid progress. Other small grain is doing well, considering the late spring.

Most fields are free of weeds except for some small spots of mustard. Corn is up and appears to be doing fine, but it could use a good rain. Some farmers are cultivating for the first time, but the fields are not weedy as yet. Several farmers have mowed their alfalfa hay for the first cutting. In general, crop prospects are excellent at this time.

By nil'LLlS JENSEN spwi.t correspondent Brookings, S. June 14 A "Home Away from Home" is the motto of the Wesley Foundation at South Dakota State college in Brookings. The Wesley Foundation is a house near the campus where students 0f Methodist preference can enjoy the comforts of home nf(1 The purpose of the Wesley Foundation is to create a Christian Fellowship at State college and students to be laymen in their n.n ThP mph hPhind the Foundation is that it will keep the students interested in church work while in college. Convenient Campus Home To the average college student, classes. A piano, comfortable lounge chairs, the latest magazines, and a combination radio-phonograph make the house seem like home.

Plans for the Wesley Foundation were started 25 years ago by 'a minister serving the First Methodist church of Brookings. He set aside a small sum of money against the wishes of many of the church members. However, as years went by, the fund increased. When the Methodist churches of South Dakota held their "Crusade for Christ" campaign, they consented to give the Foundation $1,000, if the Foundation could raise $1,000 to match theirs. The Foundation was able to raise the money and received the other $1,000.

Bought for $11,000 In June, 1947, the Wesley house was purchased for $11,000. At this time a student director was en- gaged to oversee the activities of the Foundation. The students with worked out a program that proved so successful that it still is used today. In the fall of 1949, the mortgage was paid off with the funds received from the annual conference of Methodist churches in South Dakota, National Board of Education, and the First Methodist church of Brookings. The house is now supported by the same organizations and this year for the first time, students have made pledges which have amounted to $500.

The Wesley Foundation is a three-story house with a large basement. When the house was bought, it was remodeled and re decorated The decorating was un- der the direction of Mrs. A. M. Eberle.

Students helped with the decorating and supplying the furnishings. Apple green walls, flowered drapes, and red and gray furniture gvie the two living rooms a cheerful and friendly atmosphere. Also on the first floor is an office and a committee room. This is where the 22-member cabinet meets every Tuesday night. The kitchen is open to all and can be used at anytime.

The students like the kitchenette 1 2 I A tn i JJ the tree planting plots vary in size from 5 to 10 acres. Only those trees and shrubs are planted which are suitable to the site and location for wildlife habitat. Due to the severe loss of pheasants during the past two winters, this cover program is considered one of the most important undertakings of the department. Under this program the department furnishes the seedlings and does the planting. To expand the program without purchasing more farm equipment, the department is entering into cooperative agreements with the Soil Conservation Service and will pay this agency for rendering a like service, Peterson explained.

The demand for wildlife cover planting is increasing each year, making the expansion of the program possible Other Pittman-Robertson projects involving smaller amounts of money were ap- proved by the commission for the game, waterfowl, fur bearers, and big game.
