When the OPM announced its rub ier rationing plan a few weeks ago, ye listed several rules for "stretch - ng" tire miles, a thing that it now s patriotic, as well as thrifty, to do. The reason correct air pressure is mportant is that each pound of un ler-inflation increases tread wear by >ne-eighth, besides adding to gas ?onsumption ... A tire only slightly ?ut of line is dragged sidewise many cct per mile?that could cut its te al life-span in half ... At 70 miles m hour, tread wear is twice as rapid is at 45 . . . Watch the thermometer or tread wear is five times as fast it 100 degrees as at 40 ? and you ihould allow for excess pavement leat, for even when the air is cool, oad surfaces are often 20 or 30 de crees hotter (it takes 130 degrees o make tar melt). iamston 6, Goldsboro 8.

Cosily Miscues By Martins Give Bears 7-6 Victory Friday ? Hill Slielton Celebrates De parture With Two It 11 ii Homer Costly errors at critical times gave the New Bern Bears a 7-6 verdict ov er Williamston's Martins here last Friday night. The locals started strong, scoring three runs in the first stanza when Ches Sparr homcrrd after Bill Shel ton had doubled and Fred Hoyle knocked out a single. But the Bears came back strong in the second to combine five hits and a walk for four runs and send Slim Gardner to the showers. Williamston, however, took the lead once more in the second when Babe Tuckey walked, Dick Cherry sacrificed. Johnny Byrum walked and Shelton hit his second double to drive in Tuckey. Byrum came home on a balk by Pitcher Hamil ton. Another tally was added by the Martins in the third off Elmer Cone's double and Tuckey's single. A walk, sacrifice and two bits gave New Bern two runs in the sixth to knot the count at 6-alh The deciding run in the ninth resulted from two hits, a stolen base and an error. Dick Cherry hurled good ball dur ing his 8-inning relief role, allowing eight hits, walking two and fanning five. Tuckey was the Martins' batting star with two for three, while he and Bill Shelton featured afield. Six of the Martins' ten hits were for extru bases. The box: Friday, August 1.
