If You Hit the Bottle on the Ride Don’t Breathe a Word to Patron SACRAMENTO, May 9—(AP) Mints and breath beautifiers may fool the 'missus. after you've had a couple. But don't try the same technique on the highway patrol. In its campaign to curb drunk driving in California, the patrol has devised six different tests for detecting tipsy motorists. They are: 1. The Romberg test—Usually on the spot. A motorist is made to walk the white line in the road; stand on one leg; bring his fingers to his nose and perform other coordination exercises. 2. The drunkometer—better known as the balloon test. The driver must whoosh air from the bottom of his lungs to fill the balloon. In a laboratory, the air is let out of the balloon into a chemical which shows the tent of the blood. 3. The screen test—hero, the driver performs a motion picture the "set" consists of a with a white stripe. The driver is put paces of the Romber. 4. and 5. The samples of the driver urine are taken to cohole content. Neith can be made without st's consent. 6. Examination by doctor. Several states have driving test—usually first three described.

Schilke, since establish- lishing his residence in Anaheim as the new minister of the Bethel Baptist church. White roses, dutch iris and wed- ding bells had been cleverly ar-ranged to decorate the living room of the Schilke home. A reception for immediate mem- bers of the family was held at the home of the bride's parents. The couple plan to make their home in Bellflower, after return- ing from a honeymoon trip to San Francisco.

National Hospital Day has been celebrated each year since Presi- dent Warren G. Harding gave his approval to the idea' in 1921. May 12 was selected because it is the birthday of Florence Nightingale, "The Lady of the Lamp." Founded in 1914, the Orange county general hospital has experi- enced many growing pains and adjustments in its attempt to keep pace with the rapidly increasing population of Orange county. From a small beginning it has gradually grown into an institution with a daily census of approximately 400 patients. Every kind of disease found in Orange county is treated there. Each of the seven ages of man is well represented. Between the pro- mature baby in the incubator to the nonogenarian in the geriatrics ward stretches a considerable peri- od of time and a vast array of ailments. The board of supervisors and the hospital director especially desire that the taxpayers of Orange county become familiar with the hospital and the scope of its work. Visitors are requested to drive in the main entrance of U.S. Highway 101 approaching the hospital from the east entrance.

The screen test—like a movie hero, the driver performs in front of a motion picture camera. But the "set" consists of a special room with a white stripe on the floor. The driver is put through the paces of the Romberg test. 4. and 5. The fluid tests—samples of the driver's blood and urine are taken to determine alcohol content. Neither of these can be made without the motorist's consent. 6. Examination by a medical doctor. Several states have a uniform driving test—usually one of the first three described above. In California, the kind of test to be given in each area is determined by the district attorney and Clayton Hess, assistant educator the local highway patrol squad. Tional officer for the patrol, appraises the balloon test as the best all around device to measure drunkenness. In experiments, he said, it was possible to determine with a high degree of accuracy exactly how many bottles of beer a subject had downed. The penalty for drunk driving in California is covered by two state laws: Prison and fine may be imposed if the driver injures another person while drunk. Jail and fine may be imposed if the driver is even driving while drunk. McCoy Starts Campaign for School Supt.
