Drive Carefuiiy...In a few days students of Valdosta State College will be

making their way home across the state (or states^.Some may not return.Not because they didn't intend to. But

because someone was careless. There are ac­cidents that cannot be avoided but many that take lives each year could be prevented by exercising due care.

According to a survey made by Univer­sity of Nebraska professors, the age group having the least regard for speed laws was

! # / 16-25. Drivers under 26 were respensible forb y A.I T 36 per cent of the speed law violations. Fifty

per cent of the total violators were under 30 years of age.WTien you're traveling during the holidays, stay alert.

Don't get the tholiday haze". If you've hit the bottle, don't hit the street.

Alake sure that your lights are operating efficiently before driving at night. Remember that the speed limit in Georgia falls from 60 miles per hour to 55 when darkness arrives. If it is necessary for you to walk at night, wear clothing of a light color.

Bad weather influences the accident rate. Several weeks ago a student here at V^SC was treated at the general hospital for injuries received in an accident that occurred returning to the Main Campus from the North Campus during a rain. Since the car in which she was riding crashed into the rear of a car in front, this accident might have been avoided if the driver had l^ n alert or if there had been better visibility. So keep your windshield wiper and brakes in serviceable condi­tion. Keep your fog lights on during rainy or foggy weather.

It is mpertant to keep your vehicle in ^^top-notch" con­dition in order to insure more safety for you and others.

So drive the holidays.

M y letter is going to be early this year, not because I want so m uch, but because I want to be sure that you get it m plenty o f time. Santa, I really have a prob­lem. There are so rhany tiring that I want. A bright new car, a new fur coat, a new record player, a new living doll, or to pass ac­counting, these arc just a fe w o f the things I cou ld ask for. Bqt in a few months all these things listed above w ould grow o ld and then I w ould be wishing for some- tiring new.

Santa, the thing I want most o f all is strength and consideration. T h e strength to live and enjoy life and the consideration to show others during the next year. Santa, things to a lots o f people otw country w ould be a better place to live.

Santa Claus, you can also bring m e a few small supprises if you like. Please don 't forget me for 1 will b e w d tin g on Christmas night.

In the Rose Bowly powerful Ohio State with an 8-1 record will battle it out with Oregon who has a 7-3 record. Ohio State has a better season record and a stronger team than Oregon so I predict the winner will be OHIO STATE,

N a V y / 8-1-ly and R i c e, 7-3, tangle in the Cotton Bowl. I l l have

o along with X A V Y who shouldn't have too much trouble a R ice^

In the Sugar Bowl, ^lississippi, 8-1-1, and Texas, G-3-1, L l)e out to defeat one another. This should be a close game,; I think MISSISSIPPI wiU come out on top.

Down in Miami in the Orange Bowl Oklahoma, 9-1, will igle with the Blue Devils of Duke, who have a 6-2-2 record, lahoma should take this game pretty easy unless Duke has extra good day. I predict OKIjAHOMA.
