During the month of October 3,323 drivers' licenses were withdrawn for a variety of reasons. Greenville county led the state with 275 suspensions and Close behind Greenville was Richland County with 273. Spartanburg had 236 withdrawals. Other counties scaled downward with the number of withdrawals to a Jow of 5 in Saluda County.

Every county had some withdrawals. Failure to comply with the safety responsibility law continued as the chief reason for license withdrawal, with 5,188 cases. Second was driving under the influence of intoxicants, with 1,993 cases. The system caught 1,263 drivers, while reckless driving brought about 349. Totals for the year through October showed 14,213 license withdrawals.

There were 6,634 instances of failure to meet the safety responsibility law requirements and 2,664 of driving under the influence of intoxicants. A breakdown by ages shows that the largest group (6,148) was composed of persons age 17-29. Second highest (3,077) was 40 and older. Youngsters (14-16) were involved in only 1,348 cases. Zip Code Puts Zoom In Yule Mail This year, more than ever before, the use of ZIP Code is essential to efficient delivery of the more than eight billion pieces of holiday mail that will be handled by the Postal Service just before Christmas.

Acting Postmaster James C. Parris today urged all residents of the Gaffney area to make a concerted effort to the five digit number in both the address and the re-'turn address. ZIP Code helps cut down the number of times a piece of mail must be before reaching its final destination. This saves time in delivery and cuts the cost of moving the mail. "We expect a record-breaking mail volume this Christmas 'and will need all the help we can get," Postmaster Parris said.

"There are three easy ways in which you can cooperate with the Postal and at the same time assure that you get on-time delivery for your holiday gifts and greetings. You should SHOP EARLY, MAIL EARLY, AND USE ZIP CODES." ZIP Codes for addresses you iuse most often can be obtained from the ZIP Code Directory in the post office lobby or by phone. The ZIP Code information phone number is 489-7144. "Probably the easiest method of getting the Zip Codes you need is to check the return addresses on the mail you receive from your correspondents. In most cases the proper Zip Code has been included.

Then you should transcribe the codes into your address book. Remember, mail moves the country ZIP CODE moves the mail."
