Blacktop Driveways Need Attention Coal Tar Sealant is'Do It Yourself Answer I Indifference, misunderstand ing and delay can cost the homeowner precious dollars if the driveway for the family car is blacktop-paved. Surface cracking, chuckholes and shoulder crumbling are danger signals of trouble ahead, lead ing to costly repairs or replace ment, if left unattended. Usually a mixture of asphalt and aggregate rolled into place, this type of pavement is immediately subjected to deterioration caused by sun, rain, snow, wind, frost plus the destructive drippage of oil, grease and gas from automo biles. Like wood and steel, which are protected by paint from the elements, blacktop surfaces also must have a pro tective coating. Such a sealant must be water resistant, impervious to petro leum solvents, flexible, easy to apply, and long lasting, ac cording to Koppers Company, Inc. of Pittsburgh, producers of waterproofing and protective coating materials Of all the materials tested only coal tar has been found to possess all of these characteristics As phalt cutbacks, frequently of fered as a low-cost "dressing" will not resist the elements or oil and gas drippage AT&T Promotes Raymond Scruggs to PR Mgr.

NEW YORK—On May 20th Camelot Books published a pa perback edition of Bella Rod man's celebrated juvenile nov el, LIONS IN THE WAY. This edition represents a significant departure in juve nile • papeprback publishing. Most often, reprinters choose books for their juvenile lists from already well-established children's classics. Rarely do they select 'a recently publish ed book with a timely subject. LIONS IN THE WAY is fic tion, but it is shaped out of the experience* of living peo ple in real- situations The cen tral character is Robby Jones, one of eight Negrff students chosen to integrate a Southern high school. As Robby prepares for the first day of integrated ?lasses, he recalls an old spirit ual, "Lions in the Way," once sung by slave? about to run for freedom. In the book, the "lions in the way"—the ob stacles that might prevent in tegration—are considered from the point of view of both the Negro and white participants. THE CAROLINA TIMES—3B The stituations and conflicts are presented as the stirring, human drama behind today's headlines. On publication of the Follett Publishing Company hardcover edition in May, 1966, LIONS IN THE WAY as not only widely praised by reviewers in the major media, but it was enthu siastically received by educa tors, librarians, and communi ty and religious leaders. Teachers and librarians, in par ticular, pointed out that stu dents today are more aware of the "grown-up" world around them, and they want to read about that world. They want books about real situations, as they might encounter them. LIONS IN THE WAY fills this need.

Ray of New Smyrna Beach, Books sociation has selected LIONS IN THE WAY as one of the no table books of the year. In cit ing the book, the ALA said. "This significant narrative of the painful integration of eight Negro high school students has the impact of an eyewitness ac count." Appropriately enough, this topical, timely novel is the first 1966 ALA "notable book" to be published in paperback and thus made available to a larger, mass market audience. Negro Ins.

CHICAGO Ne|ro owned life insurance companies moved closer to the two and a half bil lion dollar mark in life insur ance in force this week report ing an estimated SBO million in sales between May 8 and May 13 The surge in business is equal to a third of last year's net increase. It was chalked up in a concentrated "National Insurance Week" effort. The sales push involved some 8,000 men in 500 district and branch offices in 25 states. Pending formal tabulation of NI Week sales, a spokesman put the amount of insurance in force with members of the National Insurance Association at $2.4 billion. Insurance in force is the face value, or the amount the company agrees to pay to beneficiaries of an insurance policy. The promotion was designed by a committee headed by Earthmon Fort, director of agencies fo* Mammoth Life In surance Company, Louisville, Kentucky.
