Medical men recognized, as far back as 1904, the close link between drinking and traffic mishaps; yet no effective technique for reducing the carnage has been devised. One reason, suggests Dr. R. F.

While the threat of punishment may be a deterrent for some, others may need medical and psychiatric treatment...
...getting fewer gifts, but more money. A preliminary accounting showed that Harvard College had received a new high of $3.4 million-$87,-000 more than last year.

One major reason, says Arthur Decio, 38, founder, chairman and president of Skyline Corp., of Elkhart, Ind., is that "some years ago, builders just decided to forget about low-income groups. This was our opportunity, and we are trying to make the most of it." Last year Decio's Skyline sold about 30,000 mobile homes and 12,000 travel trailers, more than any other U.S. firm. For the company's fiscal year, which ended May 31, it earned almost $9,000,000 on sales of $180 million, a jump...
