Road Radar Patrolled
Spw York, Sept. s—The#* words,
which n,ow appear on traffic signs
in communities all over the na
tion, bring a smile to the lips of
many of tbe nation’s motorists
who think they are in on a secret
method to “beat” the scientific
speed detection devices.
Method or no method, they’ve
got a surprise in store if they
speed through a radar speed de
tection, says William J. Toth of
New York City. Mr. Toth, a mem
ber'of the staff of New York Uni
versity’s Center for Safety Educa
tion, is currently on leave from
the University and traveling thro
ugh the nation with a radar-equip
ped car as an educational activity
in connection with the nation
wide “Slow Down and Live" cam
paign that began last Memorial
Day and ended on Labor Day.
This is the fourth summer that
Mr. Toth has been on the road
with the car, and in that time \he
has probably heard more theories
advanced for beating the radar
equipment than any other man in
the nation. "But I’ve yet to hear
one that will work,” he declares.
“The most widely held beliefs,”
he says, “are that strips of tin-foil
attached to the car, or steel bear
ings thrown loose in the hubcaps
or chewing gum wrappers tossed
from the window when passing a
radar unit, will upset its readings.
If anything, these methods would
only make for a more accurate 1
reading.
“Other people think that if they
blow their horns, or blink their
lights, or throw their car in neu
tral and race their engines, they
can jam radar. Actually, radar is
as unaffected by these sevices as
it is by moonlight, or a car radio,
or the color of a driver’s clothing.”
Some drivers are more inven
tive, and their methods for beat
ing radar range from the use of
sprack chains (to drag off static
electricity) to plastic car bodies,
to mechanical gadgets attached to
the engine.
Still no luck, according to Mr,
Toth, The determined machine
cares nothing at all for mechani
cal gadgets or the amount of j
'•h: electricity present. And as
- car body, it will shoot
plywood, plastic.
- piaie glass and cloth and take its
readings from the engine and
even from the driver’s body!
Near asMr. Toth can figure, it
would take an all plastic, driver
less car to escape radar detection,
and there are very few of those
around, now
But why, he asks, should any
right-thinking driver want t o
beat radar anyway? Its one pur
pose is to help law enforcement
officers remove from the high
ways those drivers whose irres
ponsible actions endanger the
lives of the 85 per cent of motor
ists who drive carefully, obey
posted speed limits and would

“The annual ‘Slow Down and
Live’ campaign, administered by
the National Conference of State
Safety Coordinators, aims at re
ducing the five speed associated
violations which are present in 90
per cent of all fatal traffic acci
dents,” Mr. Toth says. “The pro
gram tries to do this through
public education and through
stepped-up enforcement efforts.
In every previous year, and so far
in 1956, it has reduced or held
even the number of traffic acci
dents in spite of ever increasing
volumes of traffic and in the face
of a steadily rising traffic fatality
curve.
“So why try to beat radar," he
asks. “In the first place, it can’t
be done. And in the second place, j
it’s helping to save your life by
removing from the highways
those drivers who refuse to ‘Slow
Down and Live’.”

THE YANCEY RECORD
ONE MILLION AVAILABLE
After the University made it
knbWn that $1,000,000 is ready
and waiting soj 1 students ’ who
want to borrow money to go to
school, numerous inquiries have
come in from students and pros
pective students.
We often hear that many stud
ents don’t go to college because
they don’t have the money. Too
many of them fail to even inves
tigate whether they can borrow
or get scholarships.
A special effort L being exerted
to get students to go into teach
ing. A special fund of $135,000
will be loaned to teachers and
those wanting to go into teaching.
Interest rates will be 2% per cent.
No repayment of the principal is
expected until the students are on
jobs after their college days are
ever. Those wanting to borrow,
write Student Aid Office, Univer
j sity of North Carolina, Chapel
Hill.
