Winter Tests Provide 6 Tips For Safer Winter Driving By Professor A.H. Easton ' Director, Motor Vehicle Research Laboratory University of Wisconsin 1 Get the "feel" of the road by accelerating carefully to see if wheels spin; or brake gently to see if they skid. Reduce speed accordingly. 2 Increase your following distance. It takes three to nine times as far to stop on snow and ice as on dry pavement. 5 "Pump" your brakes to slow or stop don't jam them on. An intermittent pumping action three to five times per second keeps the wheels rolling and helps maintain steering control. 4 Have good tires with good treads. Better yet, use snow tires which provide half again as much pulling power in snow as regular tires. Studded snow tires offer still more help on icy surfaces. 5 Always carry reinforced tire chains in the trunk of your car for use during severe snow and ice conditions. They provide four to seven times as much traction on snow or ice as regular tires. S Keep your windshield and windows clear at all times. Replace streaking wiper blades gone dead from exposure to sun, wind and oily road film. Be sure that your windshield washer solution contains adequate anti-freeze. i f vacant lots mowed and fence lines free from weeds. 4.

Norton, former Springville resident who is now president of FB Track Line in Salt Lake City, has seen his company increase its billings from $1 million to $5 million in a short two year period. Born in Salt Lake City, he was reared in Springville, one of five children. After graduation gradua-tion from the Springville High School, where he was active in athletics, he entered the BYU and then transferred to Utah State Agricultural College Col-lege where he supported himself him-self driving p. delivery truck. In 1951, before he finished college, he went to Topeka, Kansas, joining a firm and there he was dispatcher prior to transferring to Chicago, where he was appointed execuj tive vice president of Little Audrey Transportation Co. in 1964. During this time he expanded ex-panded into the Western states, including Utah. In 1968 he came back to Utah, liked what he saw here and purchased FB. "Utah is the greatest place on earth," he said. "I think the ttate will take off for two or three reasons. First, it has better bet-ter source of manpower. The West coast is saturated and has used up its manpower. Second, Sec-ond, land is still available here. Third, the state has a fantastic transportation network."

Nortor with youngsters Deadline change set on burning The deadline for prohibiting the open burning of automobile bodies has been extended from January 1 to April 1 following a meeting of the Utah Air Conservation Con-servation Committee. The extension ex-tension was requested by members mem-bers of the Utah Auto Wreckers Wreck-ers Association. Twenty members and representatives repre-sentatives for wreckage dealers appeared at the Thursday meeting. Walter Howick, president, presi-dent, Utah Auto Wrecker Association, As-sociation, told the committee Utah has more than 100,000 junked or abandoned cars and about 1,700 were abandonded in state in the last year. He said prohibiting wreckage yards from burning the junk vehicles would force stockpil-. ing of them and could be economically econ-omically ruinous to wreckers. Some of the wrecker dealers asked for the extended deadline for at least a year to enable them to build closed incinerators. own trucks. Mr. Norton believes be-lieves this makes the drivers good businessmen. "They are safer drivers, treat equipment better because it is theirs and do a better service and public relations job," he said. About 95 power units are operating through FB which also has an office staff of about 35 persons. per-sons. The company has offices in Boise, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Mr. Norton's hobbies include horses. "I own only one good horse, a seven-year Tennessee Walker mare that last year won several awards in the ' northwest." His other interests include skiing and tennis. |
