Government Uses Camera to Test Road Conditions Throughout Nation Now the candid camera is being snapped into action for the cause of highway safety. That roads only 18 feet in width are too narrow and hazardous for modern motor traffic was revealed in a recent photographic study by the United States bureau of public roads. In a report received by the Automobile Club of Southern California its findings on road widths in relation to traffic movement were announced. The camera was mounted on a bracket just outside the car driver's window. Pictures were made of vehicles ahead and speeds and road measurements were recorded. It was shown that motorists usually allow ample clearance when passing other vehicles. The average clearance of passenger cars overtaking and passing other passenger cars ranges from 3.8 feet on 18-foot pavements, to 4.9 on 22-foot surfaces. Speed has a decided effect. As it increases, drivers tend to travel farther away from the right edge of the road. A car passing another car going in the same direction required more road width than one passing from opposite direction, for it must go substantially faster than the car in front. On pavements only 18 feet wide, the leit wheels of the passing vehicles are often driven on shoulders. It was found that 18-foot roads are too narrow either for passenger cars alone or for mixed car and truck traffic; that pavements 20 feet wide are inadequate for dense traffic involving trucks; and that a road width of 22 feet is reasonably safe for the two-lane movement of modern mixed, free-moving traffic.

Excursion Rates To Rose Tourney For the convenience of those planning to attend the Tournament of Roses at Pasadena on New Year's day, Saturday, January 1st, the Motor Transit lines are providing special motor coaches and a low roundtrip excursion fare from this city, according to C. O. Stewart, Anaheim agent for the bus company. "By using the Saturday morning special buses which will leave Anaheim at 6:37 a.m. those wishing to see the floral parade, as well as those fortunate enough to have secured ticket to the great Alabama-California football classic to be played in the Rose Bowl, will be enabled to reach Pasadena in time to see the parade. Regular daily service will also be maintained from this city to and from Pasadena as closely to schedule as possible, remarked Stewart. Orange Show Plans Numerous Changes The National Orange Show organization is expending $15,000 for the beautifying of the exterior and permanent revamping of the interior of its big auditorium in San Bernardino preparatory to the completion of plans for the 1938 event. An attractive fountain and a series of gateways connected by pergolas done in Castillian architecture and lavishly landscaped Safety Campaign Results Are Good The Automobile club of Southern California is continuing its campaign of informing motorists of the dangers in making left-hand turns in face of traffic which was started some weeks ago, it was announced this week by Standish L. Mitchell, secretary and general manager. Studies of accident causes by the club reveals that many mishaps are the result of motorists attempting to force their way across a stream of traffic, it was said. "As a result of the publicity given the club's suggestion about left hand turns, we think we have noted an appreciable improvement. More left-turners are waiting for through traffic than formerly," Mitchell declared. The National Orange Show organization is expending $15,000 for the beautifying of the exterior and permanent revamping of the interior of its big auditorium in San Bernardino preparatory to the completion of plans for the 1938 event. An attractive fountain and a series of gateways connected by pergolas done in Castillian architecture and lavishly landscaped will completely alter the entrance according to B. L. Holmes, chairman of the building and grounds committee. The revision of the interior will eliminate the former arena area and add 30,000 square feet of necessary exhibit space. Dates for the 1938 show will be announced next week. Nine times out of ten mother love is nothing but self-love. Mother love is largely a matter of saving mother's face. — Dr. William A.
