Safety Council Says Not to Rely Completely On "Winterized" Tires Nov. 25. The new automobile tires are not as good as tire chains for stop-and-go traction on snow and ice, but some therh do provide a margin oi safety over conventional tires. That information has just been released by the National Safety Council to help motorists combal the extra hazards of winter driving and to clear up confusion resulting from the claims made for many types of "winterized" tires. It is based on actual tests made early this year on the frozen sur- iace of Pine Lake, near Clintonville, by the Council's Committee on.

Winter Driving Hazards Ross G. Wilcox, council traffic engineer and director of the research project, si' 2 that 10 of, the 22 test tires showed an over-all improvement of 10 per cent or better over conventional tires, two were inferior and 10 showed im provement of less than 10 per cent. "But the improvement was not groat enough to warrant less care or the elimination of tire chains when driving under severe snow and ice conditipns," he said. For example, the best "winterized" tire stopped on glare ice from a speed of 20 miles an hour in an average of'141 feet, chains on a conventional tire reduced the stop to an average of 72 feet, while the normal stopping distance on dry Concrete is about 20 feet, acording to Mr. Wilcox.

"Progress has been made toward producing safer tires for winter driving," he said, "and it is hoped that these tests will stimulate their further development." The specialized tires tested were of three general types: (1) those which gain additional 'gripping edges by the use of "breakout" material salt, sawdust, peanut shells or by piercing, cutting or lacerating; (2) those with hard material imbedded in the rubber steel chips, steel or steel coils intended to bite, into surface; 3 those widow of John, J.

A wounded soldier said here that some of those controversial cans of beer saved the lives of a number of American troops in Korea. Corp. Trevis Shepard, 20, said a trapped American unit which he could not name, would have perished of thirst if planes hadn't dropped unbreakable cans of beer to the stranded men. He said containers of water would have smashed on the ground. Shepard confessed to being a teetotaler himself but "if it hadn't been for those cans of beer, what' would those soldiers have done for their thirst?" The Ohio Women's Christian Temperance Union came up with an answer to that question at a convention here recently.

The WCTU advocated the GFS drink fruit' juice instead. Shepard is recovering from leg wounds and an eye injury he got in the Korean fighting. He said the North Koreans "couldn't hit the side of a barn" as marksmen, but he said "they were good at '-'tricks." One, he said, was to place a land grenade under each armpit with the pins pulled. The pressure of their arms against their sides teeps the grenade from exploding. said, they surrender and when they're told to put their hands over their heads, the grenades explode, killing both the North Korean and his captor.
