Better bumpers
may be coming
WASHINGTON (UPI) -The
government’s auto safety agen
cy next week will issue a rule
designed to cut car repair bills
by requiring auto bumpers to
better do what they are
supposed to —withstand a
bump.
Redesigned to the point
where critics claim they are
little more than cosmetic
styling, bumpers now will have
to conform to minimum impact
standards.
Under a rule proposed by the
National Highway Traffic Safe
ty Administration, the tougher
bumper standards will become
effective Aug. 1, 1972. But
industry sources predict the
government will announce that
the effective date will be
allowed to slip at least one
more month to let the auto
industry complete production of
1972 models.
The Insurance Institute for
Highway Safety, a nonprofit
organization supported by a
group of major insurance
companies, told a Commerce
subcommittee last month that
tests showed it would cost an
average of $331 to repair a 1971
model sedan which it a wall at
5 miles per hour —walking
speed.
Volunteer
drivers
are helping
Getting to medical and health
services has become much
easier for those needing tran
sportation, thanks to Spalding
County Department of Family
and Children Services Volun
teer Drivers.
Volunteers began working
with the department in Novem
ber, 1969. Their services have
expanded rapidly and now
include out-of-town transporta
tion. In March, 1971, Volunteer
Drivers gave more than 167
hours of their time and drove
almost 4,000 miles.
In addition to providing
transportation to medical and
health services, volunteers are
now involved in getting students
to educational resources.
A Griffin-Tech student, Jesse
Wilkes, Jr. transports five other
Griffin-Tech students to and
from school daily. W. D. Ison
drives students to the Way-to-
Earn Workshop and the Adult
Education Learning Center.
Another volunteer, Mrs. Ruthie
Evans, has made it possible for
two young children to attend the
Play-to-Learn School by becom
ing a Volunteer Driver.
Without volunteer transporta
tion, these students would not be
able to take advantage of learn
ing opportunities in the com
munity.
Other Volunteer Drivers
working with the Spalding
County Department of Family
and Children Services are: Mrs.
Mary Alford, Mrs. Ilene Autry,
Mr. Clifford Brooks, Mr. Allen
Brown, Mrs. Mary Frances
Doughtie, Mrs. Suzanne Gil
bert, Mrs. Louise Harper, Mr.
D. T. Moore, Mrs. Lenora
McMullen, Mr. James C. Pad
gett, Mrs. Ettie Purkali and
Mrs. Lizzie Touchstone.
Anyone who is interested in
volunteering his time and
talents in order to add “hope to
help” for the needy, may
contact Mrs. Carole Johnson,
Volunteer Services Director.

seeking publicity
WASHINGTON (UPI)-The

letter to Sen. George S. Mc-
Govern, D-S.D., but Thompson
said Daniel knew publicity
would be “the inevitable result.
“From my limited knowledge
of your actions I can only con
clude that you are not truthful
when you state that you did not
want publicity on this matter,”
the Georgia congressman wrote
Daniel.

However, we must remember

soldiers most often cannot even
distinguish the enemy they are
