Treak Squeaks
During 1961
Are Reported
if
CHICAGO — Traffic accidents
fn the island of Rjarkoey, Nor
way, rose sihiairply in 1961 to an
tBqHeaedemted pate equal to $5,
009 accidents per 10,000 register
aqhtoMdles.
The Anode Island has an area
Of five square miles, a population
Of 730, one road, one truck, and
station wagon, the island’s only'
taxi. The truck and the taxi col- ’
lldcd at a bend In the road.
This is one of the tales in an I ■
article “Freak Squeaks of 1961”, ['
the National Saiftey Council's an- j
nual roundup of odd and unusual ■
accident. It appears in the Feb
ruary issue of Traffic Safety
magazine, published by the Coun
cil. |
Water started a fire in Lara
mie, Wyo. The water was in a
gallon jug in a station wagon,!
and the sun shining through it
ignited a steeping bag. Heat from
the fire caused a gasoline lantern
to overflow, adding fuel to the
fire.
(RMnard Matheney badly dam
aged his oar when he swerved
off Illinois highway 460 to avoid
hitting a deer. He got another
auto to continue his business. A
Short time later he ran off the
same 'highway and into a fence—
to avoid hitting another car.
Mathoney's deer were not the
only animals involved in unusual
accidents. Mail carrier Duck Hen
son of Greer, S. C., was trying to
shoo away a barking dog when
a small boy ran from a nearby
house and bit the postman on the
aitn. And John Hohnson got two
bites for one When he hooked a
os!Wish in Chestuee Creek near
Cleveland, Term. The 20-pound
fish bit him when he landed it.
In Olmpia, Wash., Saint Ber
nard dog leaped playfully from
a pick-up truck onto a small auto
driven by Marvin Morget. Re
pairs necessary to the dented
hood and smashed windshield
wore estimated at $150.
The year’s most unusual shack
was not enjoyed by a Marietta,
Qa., housewife. While eating wa
termelon, she swallowed a Yd*
to Jacket wasp which flew Into
her mouth. It stung Tier throat
on the way down. **

Always Respect
Old Man Winter
Advises Scheidt
Common sense should feel mo
twrists to respect Old Man Win
ter and the added hazards h<
tosses out in the form of snow
ice and blustery weal titter, Motet
Vehicles Uomniussioner Jbidwaix
Scneidt observed lunuts week.
“The same good sense that irta
kes us put on overcoats tor cold
or ruaoens for heavy Slush
snouid mobivaite drivers to pul
on tneir use onaunu when they e
jlect to go during severe cunui
I txons of nee or deep snow," he
said.
Otherwise, instead of just get
ting cold or wet feet, the follow
ing things can happen to 'the un
prepared or negligent driver:
1. Get stuck, tie up traffic and
annoy others.
2. Get hurt or have a (heart at
i tack from trying to push or sho
vel out a chaimess oar.
3. 'Be the cause of a traffic jam
; which delays hundreds of motor -
j ists or blocks snowplows. The
I situation then can (become pro
gressively worse. If a fire breaks
out and fire trucks cannot nego
tiate around chalinless vehicles,
this could result in your bouse,
along with your neighbors’ being
burned.
“Avoiding accidents and dan
gerous traffic 'blockades during
severe snow or Jew conditions
should be everyone’s Objective,"
Scheldt declared. "It's also your
moral 'responsibility,” he said.
Benefit Claims
From Insurance
At New High
Health insurance benefit pay
ments by all insuring organiza
tions averaged an estimated
$17.3 million a day during 1961,
the Health Institute reported to
day.
This represented an increase
of some $1.8 million a day over
the average daily benefit pay
ments of $15.5 mdlillan made dur
ing 1960 by all health insurers,
said the Institute. It also is an
increase of $7.4 million a day ov
fche 1956 average benefit of $9.9
million a day, and a rise of $12.9
million a day over the 1951 av
erage daily benefit of $4.6 mil
ion.
Health insurance benefit pay
ments during 1961 by all insurers
were estimated 'by Che Institute at
$6.3 bullion, an increase of 11
percent over the $5,688,000,000
paid out during I960.
The Institute said insurance
companies accounted for $3.4 bil
lion of the 1961 benefits while
all other insurers, including Blue
Cross-iBlue Shield and the inde
pendent plans, pair out some
$2.9 billion. In 1960, insurance
companies paid out $3,069,000,000
in benefits while other insuring;
groups paid out $2,619,000,000,
said the Institute.
Of the insurance company ben
efit total for 1961, said the In-1
stitute, an estimated $2.5 billion
went to help policyholders pay
hospital, surgical and medical
bills. The remaining nearly $900
million was paid to persons with
loss of income insurance to 'help
replace income cut off ass a re
sult of injury or illness, said the
Institute.
Loss-otf-tSme benefit payments
by insurance companies in 1961
are estimated to have increased
slightly over 1960, while benefits
for hospital, surgical and medi
cal bills increased some $300 mil
lion, said the HTI.
In terms of persons protected
by some form of health insuran
ce, the Institute estimated that
at the end of 1961, some 136 mil
lion persons had hospital insur
ance, 124 million had surgical in
surance, 91 million had fegular
medical insurance which helps
pay the cost of doctor calls and
other non-surgical care by phy
sicians, 35 million had major me
dical insurance, and 43 million
had loss of income insurance.
