Even a beginner seamstress can
maae a smart jumper in jig ume.
Luteal sewing center experts point
out tnat tne jumper, wmcn can
double as a party uress without
tne mouse, is made Irom only two
major pattern pieces. Tnere is no
waistline seam in the one they
selected, and a simple elastic cas
ing controls skirt fullness.
Since the fit of a dress such as
this depends almost entirely on
naving the waistline in exactly the
right place, young sewing fans will
appreciate the convenience of di
rections printed right on the pat
tern pieces, indicating the correct
spot for waistline adjustments
The pattern, for a French-cuffed
blouse with little-boy collar is
packaged with the jumper pattern.
Black cotton makes good contrast
with a black and white printed
corduroy jumper, or you might
choose a dark brown blouse with
a beige jumper of washable wool, j
I Since the pattern is so easy, you
might make a couple of jumpers
at once, cutting out both at the
same time, making simultaneous
pattern adjustments. Make one in
a sturdy fabric for school, another'
in a pastel ? such as pale pink
with an American Beauty shirt ?
for party wear.

AKRON, Ohio (AP)?Maybe it's
the bounce in this Rubber City.
Whatever it is, many of the sturdy
business veterans spurn retire
ment.
Paul W. Litchfield, at 80 still
heads a large rubber company. He
delights in squashing retirement
rumors each birthday.
Dr. M. D. Ailes, former city
health director, was past 70 when
he stepped aside in favor of a
successor. Now he's busy with
private practice.
Cyrus S. Eaton, 71, rises at 5:30'
a.m. workdays. Only two years
ago he won the chairmanship of a
major railroad.
At 87, attorney Clyde Berry has
"slowed down," but still reports to
his office and handles cases. And
there's realtor R. K. Crawford, 85,
hard to see at times because his
secretary reports he "just dashed
out again to keep an appointment."
William F. O'Neil, 70, heads
another big rubber firm.
Attorney Watson E. Slabaugh
retired last year at 95.
"You'd be surpised Just how
valuable a man is with 70 years'
experience," he said at that time.
Farmers around the world are
growing a quarter more rice than
they did at the end of World War
II.
Bicycle experts estimate' there
are 23 million people using bicy
cles In the United States.

Elaborate Plans Completed
For S-D Day, December 1
Motor Vehicles Commissioner
Ed Scheidt, who is turning up
the preparations for S-D Day,
warned motorists that approaching
winter would intensify the hazards
of travel. He advijsed them to get
their cars and trucks ready for
cold weather promptly.
S-D Day is Thursday, December
1, the commission said. It is being
sponsored nationwide by the Presi
dent's Committee for Traffic Safe
ty and has the full endorsement of
Governor Hodges.
The purpose of S-D Day, or Safe
Driving Day, is t\w> fold, he said.
First, to declare a nationwide mor
atorium on traffic accidents for
one 24-hour period, and secondly,
to stimulate all motorists and
pedestrians to remember their re
sponsibilities for safety 365 days a
year.
On cold weather hazards, Scheidt
said, "Pleasant fall weather lures
many people into a false sense of
security. They think it will last
forever. Yet, most drivers realize
that, every year, the first frost or
cold weather finds thousands un
prepared.
"It's much easier to have brakes,
headiights, wipers, defrosters and
other mechanical features of the
car checked before the cold weath
er rush starts. But remember, get
ting the car ready for winter means
more than an oil change and put
ting in anti-freeze.
"It's just as important to check
the safety factors of vision and
traction so you will be ready for
winter rains, fog, smog, sleet and
snow."
As statewide S-D Day coordinat
or, Scheldt recommended the fol
lowing winter driving hints ? or
"rules for longevity":
Don't blame the weatherman for
accidents. Be prepared.
Get the "feel" of the road when
starting out on slippery streets.
Keep the windshield clear of
fog, sleet and frost. Be certain wip
er blades, defrosters and lights are
in good working order.
Keep a safe distance between
your car and the one ahead. Ax
good rule of the thumb is one car
length for each ten miles per hour
of speed. Allow more space when
roads are slippery.
The United States has 73 per
cent of the world's registered pas
senger automobiles.
