...accident rate is lower on California's roaring freeways than at the low speeds of snaking mountain roads or intersections of Los Angeles' labyrinthine streets. In New York City, the very density of traffic slows cycles to a crawl and lowers the accident rate still further. Wet pavements are even worse on two wheels than on four: San Francisco makes its motorcycle cops dismount and climb into cars when it rains...

Last week, with the inauguration of the new $7,000,000 Queen of Prince Rupert car ferry, the whole coastline became readily accessible for the first time to U.S. tourists bound for Alaska...

This year the waterballers topped Brooklyn Polytech, 12-7, and M.I.T., 9-5, but drowned under Queens, Army, Fordham, and St. Francis...
