Sight-Vour most precious possession*
Within the next three hours at least
one employee in the U.S.A. will lose the
sight in one eye while at work. Before
the day is over, one man will lose his
sight in both eyes because of a serious
industrial injury.
Before this week is past, 63 persons
will lose the sight in one eye, and sev-
en will suffer loss of sight in both
eyes. By the end of the month total
losses of one eye will climb to 275, and
figures for loss of both eyes to 30.
By the end of the year more than 400
persons will have lost the sight in both
eyes and 3,300 are expected to lose the
sight in one eye.
Yet, many of us, if asked, "What is
your most precious possession?" would
probably list your bank account, home,
car, boat, or any number of other mater-
ial things.
Your eyes are your most precious pos-
session.
Visualize, if you will, your plight
if you were to suddenly lose your sight.
Many of you material possessions would
become worthless to you. Most pleasure-
able activities would no longer be yours
to enj oy.
Prevention protects
Prevention is relatively simple and
inexpensive.
Protect "your most precious posses-
sion" as diligently as you would your
material possessions. Material things
can be replaced, but your eyes, once
lost, can never be replaced.
Sports signups solicited
Sign up for golf, slowpitch, and
intermediate softball by calling 4558.
Volleyball leagues 1st, 2nd place
teams pulling away from the pack
Both the American and National
leagues seem to be two team races.
In the American league, HS is un-
defeated while AIMD has only one loss.
High School has excellent defense and
good ball handling with spotty serving
and inconsistent offense; AIMD has
Bob Simister casting a sinister shadow
over the situation. It looks like a
dogfight until the final game.
COMFAIRKEF knocked off NCS in their
first meeting to take a one game lead
with COMFAIRKEF featuring the spikes of
Lefty Anderson and the team's all around
ball handling.
NCS has Boysen Berry to lead them
while they try to renew their winning
ways.
The ladies' league is also a two
team race. The Waves are their own
class while HS will probably be second.
In mixed doubles play, the Guardians
and Felons will be in contention,
however, the Tacos are on the rebound
after a bad start.

when using the parking brake, you reduce
parking brake effectiveness.
TIRES
Your tires should not be kept until
they are practically bald. Bald tires
increase the danger of skidding.
Keep tires at their recommended infla-
tion pressure for all normal driving.
Tire pressure should be checked once a
month. Tires larger of smaller than those
installed by the manufacturer will affect
speedometer accuracy.
CAR TALK
Understanding some of the troublesome
noises cars often make will help you take
better care of your auto and avoid break-
downs .
Tire Ticks—A rhythmatic ticking sound
at low speed may warn that a nail, rock,
or piece of glass is embedded in a tire.
Engine Cackles—If your engine
"cackles" or continues to run for a brief
time after the ignition is shut off, your
car's idle speed may need adjustment.
Another way to avoid post ignition is to
turn off the engine while in Drive.
Speedometer Clicks—A clicking sound
from the instrument panel usually indi-
cates the need for speedometer service.
Engine Knocks—Knocks from under
the hood often means you need a higher
octane fuel.
