Show r THURSDAY DECEMBER 29 1977 PLEASANT GROVE REVIEW, PLEASANT GROVE, UTAH THURSDAY. DECEMBER 29, 1977 Cold Weather Here, American Medical Association Lists Health Hazards and Some Remedies limited. Thawing of the tissue as soon as possible is the first consideration. This can best be accomplished by getting indoors into a warm room. Treat the frozen part gently and do not rub or massage it. the old technique of rubbing snow or ice water on the frozen spot does more harm than good by delaying thawing. Medical treatment is needed promptly. Control of the severe pain is required, and antibiotics and an-titetanus injections may be needed if the skin is broken. Often the frozen skin will eventually slough off. Cold weather is back again and with it come the health hazards that accompany g temperatures. An ever present winter danger in most of the United States is frostbite. Frostbite is, naturally, more of a problem in the northern states, but even in most of the south there are occasional periods of weather cold enough to nip unprotec-ted noses and cheeks. The American Medical Association points out that frostbite can be very painful, can result in amputations and can leave the victim hyper-sensitive to cold for the rest of his or her life. In some ways the damage of frostbite is similar to a burn. Injuries to both deep and shallow tissue are comparable. First degree frostbite, like sun-burn, is an injury to surface skin. It is likely to attack ears, toes, fingers, cheeks or nose. Second degree frostbite produces blisters as in second degree bu rns. In third degree frostbite the damage is deep and much of the frozen part may be lost Prevention is the best protection. This means being properly dressed in warm clothing, waterproof shoes, and heavy, dry socks, with good covering for head and ears. Keep clothing dry from both outside moisture and perspiration, and avoid tight clothing or garters that may restrict circulation. Motorists traveling across country in subfreezing weather are advised to have heavy clothing and shoes in the car, in the event of a breakdown and a necessary hike for help. If your auto is stalled in snow or ice some distance from help, it may be safer to stay in the car than to walk a long distance in ex-treme cold in light clothing. The first signs of frostbite are "pins and needles" prickly feeling, and then numbness. The affected part will turn white or grey and later red. Groups such as the military often use the buddy system outdoors in severe weather. Each buddy watches the others face for signs of frostbite. First aid possibilities are Trade Tech Evening School to Start on Jan. 4, Signup Wow "Evening School at Utah Technical College at Provo, offering 225 classes in 37 programs of study, will begin winter quarter on January 4th simultaniously with the day school." Dr. Roger Plothow, Direc-tor of Continuing Education at the College made the an-nouncement and urged per-sons to register for courses as soon as possible to avoid the rush. Registration began on December 12 and is con-tinuing through the first week of school. The Evening School Office will be open on the Provo Campus from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for registration. The office will be closed Dec. 26 and Jan. 2 Most night classes are con-ducted from two to three hours and usually from one to three times a week. They are designed for people who work marketing, marketing-cooperativ- e work and correlated classes, diversified cooperative education, draf-ting, economics, electrical and automation, electronics English, fire science (prevention and fire fighting), general building construction, health services, horseshoeing, history (American and Early Utah), life science, learning center, machine shop, mathematics, oc-cupational home economics, occupational orientation and relations, physical science, psychology, refrigeration, speed reading, welding. The evening school faculty is made up of regular Utah TechProvo faculty members, said Dr. Plothow, and experts and leaders in various fields from the community who give their time and expertise to the evening program. in the day and wish to further their education, said Dr. Plothow, or for anyone else who may be interested in the wide variety of programs of-fered. Unlike some day school programs, evening school has virtually unlimited registration. If a class is filled and at least 12 more people wish to take it, another class can be started. Multiple classes and sec-tions, numbering at. least 225, are offered in the 37 programs of study for the evening winter quarter which include: American Institute of Banking classes, appren-tice related instruction, Geneva apprentice related in-struction, art, auto mechanics-smal- l engines, auto mechanics-general- , auto mechanics-servic- e station, collision repair (auto body).

Even under the best con-ditions, a lot more than you might think, according to the space." "The old adage, 'Slow down and Live' is never more true," Barlow said. Utah Safety Council. A dime or even a dollar is har-dly enough. Stopping distance is the sum of reaction and braking distance, and these depend on several variables. Reaction time, for most drivers, is about three quar-ters of a second. In that time a vehicle moving at 30 miles an hour travels 33 feet. At 60 miles an hour it goes twice as far in the same time 66 feet, regardless of the type of vehicle, condition of roadway or state of the weather. Braking distance the distance you go once the brakes are applied. This varies with the speed of the vehicle as well as road conditions, brake conditions, weather conditions and other influen-ces. For a passenger car on level, dry pavement, braking distance from 30 miles an hour ranges generally from 36 to --45 feet; from 60 miles, an hour, that distance shoots up as high as 162 to 202 feet. This means a cars total stop-ping distance from 30 to 69 to 78 feet and from 60 is 229 to 268 feet. These stopping distances come from tests made by the National Safety Council of cars selected at random from the general stream of traffic. Engineers now generally agree that the greatest deceleration forces come when the wheels are almost but not quite locked up and sliding, but practically speaking, its nearly im-possible for most drivers to brake with such precision. That means that the best practically available stopping distances are the result of locking the wheels, but the Utah Safety Council warns that this is usually bad procedure on slippery sur-faces. Wheels that are locked up and sliding, on a wet or icy roadway, the Council points out, have no directional stability, that is, they are just as prone to slide sideways as straight ahead. That's why the Utah safety Council advises you to pump the brakes apply, then release them in quick cycles. During the brake-of- f periods, the car's direction is under better control; the driver and his passengers aren't as likely to be at the mercy of an un-controlled skid. More important than braking distance is the per-ception time the length of time before you realize that braking is necessary. It can range all the way from zero to several seconds or even more. Extra alertness offers the only effective way to increase the perception time, explains Leo H. Barlow, Council President. "Don't depend on quick reactions to get you out of trouble," Barlow advises. "You can't reduce that three-quarter- s of a second by enough to be much help." "Instead," he says, "drive in such a way that you don't need every instant of reaction time and every foot of braking distance to avoid an accident, then in an emergen-cy, most prevalent during the holiday season and 'nter weather, you'll still hve a lifesaving cushion of time and Permanent 55 Mile Per Hour Speed Limit The Utah Transportation Commission has adopted a permanent 55 miles per hour speed limit for the state. The action came Wednesday evening in Nephi at the con-clusion of the final public hearing on the proposed per-manent rule. The other two hearings were this month in St. George and Salt Lake City. The commission made per-manent an emergency rule which had been adopted in August after the Utah Supreme Court had struck down an earlier resolution setting the 55 mile per hour limit. The commissioners said safety was the primary reason for making the speed limit permanent. Com-missioner Clem H. Church, Panguitch, who earlier had opposed the speed limit, said he changed his mind because of the number of lives that had been saved by the 55 miles per hour limit. He said that in 1974, over 9,000 lives had been saved across the nation and that number represented more than the combined populations of Kane, Garfield, and Piute Counties. Commissioner Church made the motion to adopt the permanent limit. Charles E. Ward, Transpor-tation Commissioner from Ogden, seconded the motion saying that he had always been in favor of the speed limit for safety reasons. Commissioner Wayne S. Win-ters, Provo, made the vote unanimous. Commissioners R. LaVaun Cox, Salt Lake City, and Samuel J. Taylor, Moab, were unable to attend the last hearing. The 55 miles per hour limit was mandated by Congress in late 1973. States that do not aggressively enforce the 55 miles per hour limit have been threatened with the loss of federal highway construc-tion dollars. If the state limit were more than 55 miles per hour, Utah could lose $77 million a year, which represents the bulk of Utah's highway construction budget. Governor Scott M. Matheson has said that he in-tends to recommend the Utah Legislature adopt a statutory maximum speed limit of 55 miles per hour. |
