As You Start Home

A Christmas Wish

Christmas vacation is just a few hours away for most of you.
As your mind fills with thoughts of your family, the girl
back home, all the fun you're going to have during this vacation,
you'll forget all your University woes
forget them and start
thinking of rest and relaxation.
.

But there are some things you can't afford to forget when
you get in your car arid start home. They are phrases as familiar
to you as "Merry Christmas," and in the past few weeks we vc
hammered them into you almost daily. Phrases like "Drive
Safely" and "Speed Kills" and "It Could Have Been You."
forget, as you drive home, that excessive speed kills
more people your age than any other factor.
Don

Of Folly

:

t

Don't forget that every single car you meet or pass is a
possible fatal accident.
.

Don't forget that drinking slows down your reactions, and
that even a tenth of a second may mean the difference between
life and death.
Don't forget that most people are killed in the afternoon,
on opeiroads just about the time when you'll be driving toward home.
Don't forget hat your car's every mechanical defect
lessens your chance of avoiding an accident in a sudden
emergency.

Christmas is one of the few times
during the year when people the
world over pause in their concern for
themselves and their prejudices and
join in a common spirit of joy, pood-wiand kindness.
Jt is a time when the needy are
recognized, perhaps even allowed to

Don't forget that fatigue and drowsiness at the wheel
invite accidents. The less alert you are while driving, the more
lethal a weapon your car becomes.
'Don't forget that you may know every inch of the road
home, but you don't know what lies around every curve or
across every hill. It might be a stalled car. Or an accident.
Or a person. Or death.

,i

Don't forget that driving is like a game of cards. Death
is your opponent, and its unerring hand always deals just what
you didn't expect. If you bid wrong on the highway, it will be
waiting to trump your hand. Maybe with a spade.

Students, in a rush to get home alter a Jong absence,

That, this holiday driving haard is of major importance

of Public Safety Don S. Sturgill and University Piesident
Frank C. Dickey have urged students to observe all caution
in driving home.
There is little to add to Dr. Dickey's and Mr. Sturgill's
message to the University community, other than to suggest
that anyone having a long, distance to drive mightHvalk

In last year's UKIT, Coach Fred
Schaus' West Virginia Mountaineers became only the sixth team
to pin a home court loss on the
Wildcats since 1943. And then, as
if that wasn't enough, the next
night they brought North Carolina's

abrupt halt to capture the UKIT

Schaus has reworked his starting lineup in each game. He always

perennial powerful Oklahoma

The Cowboys are in their first
season of play as a member of the
Big Eight conference, and are expected to battle defending champion Kansas State down to the

Cage wise Iba is mourning a
shortage of experience due strongly
to the loss ofikor leader Jerry

Nevertheless Hank can still count
