Motoring
By LUDWIG HEIMRATH

Champion
N' Icy curves
on the flat
are much less
troublesome th-
an on hills or a
combination of
grades and
bends but it is
surprising how
many motorists
come to grief
on them. To
Hehnrath begin with, it
Ludivig is never easy
to calculate just how much to
slow for such a curve (though
it is always better to err on
the slow side than on the fast).
Too often, the inexperienced
driver Will brake too hard,
Sliding ahead off the road. Or
he'll find the rear end swing-
ing around. I'd suggest peev-
ing the brakes before entering
the curve to take it more sure-
ly. If you find the rear end
swinging, steer in the direc-
tion of the rear wheels' skid,
being careful hot to over-dok-
i'ect or you'll be fishtailing
around le the other direction.
The new president', Mrs. Ray
Wise was charge of the
meeting and thanked' all mem-
bers far the honour conferred
upenr her, and asked for the
