Unfit drivers wreck victims Reports are being received by the State Highway Department from its specialized accident in vestigation teams that a num ber of physically unfit drivers are becoming involved in traf fic accidents, the Department has announced. The reports indicate that driv ers with heart conditions and diabetes are most numerous among the physically impaired accident victims. Department officials conclude from samp ling of drivers obtained thus far that a large number of the "mystery crashes” occurring throughout the state may b e caused by heart attacks, diabet ic coma and other sudden driv er illnesses. This conclusion is supported by the increase in percentage of one-vehicle acci dents which has occurred dur ing recent years. Department officials say per sons with serious heart condi tions probably should not drive at all. Persons suffering from lesser heart conditions, diabetes and other ailments which might produce sudden blackouts or the loss of consciousness should con sult their personal physicians to determine in there are symp toms of their ailments which might warn them when an at tack is about to occur. The specialized accident inves tigation teams recently organ ized by the Highway Depart ment are concentrating on de tails of accidents to determine their specific causes. These Teams work in conjunction with law enforcement officers in the investigation of traffic accidents throughout the state. HOSPITAL PATIENTS Mrs. Carrie Black, City James R.

The 158- inch casting will serve as the telescope mirror for the new giant telescope at the Cerro To- lolo Interamerican Observatory in Chile. The telescope mirror blank was made of O-Fs "Cer-Vit” ma terial, a glass-ceramic that does not change shape or dimensions when subjected to temperature extremes. With almost zero-ex pansion in the range of temp eratures to which an astrono mical telescope is exposed the new mirror will provide super ior photographs of astronomical objects and increase sharply the valuable viewing time previous ly lost while waiting for a tele scope mirror to adapt to envir onmental changes.
