Contributed by FIGHT FANS POISED FOR TONIGHT'S LEGION CARD IN CIVIC CENTRE GYM The air of suppressed excite-tnent hovering over the city today has nothing to do with tear of a war witli Russia. Most of the level-minded citizens feel fairly free of the danger of proletarian atom bombs for the moment and are concentrating on tonight's Legion fight cord in the Civic Centre. Promoter Jimmy Nicoll approves this attitude. Sometime during his past life, Jimmy has encountered the Hollywood adjective "collc.sal" and In recent references to tonight's events, the adjective has trembled on his lip-:. Bir be II said to his eternal glory, the word has never yet Keeif uttered in the presence of a reporter, In spite iif his dMlcaie reticen-e. however, Mr. Nicoll is obviously thinking in terms of "collosal." At latest, word, Mr. Nicoll and his col'eagues had lined up eight bouts for the fans tonight. Th I will be topped off bv a battle between Len Kitchens and Bill: litQanaW of Vancouver which has seemed to capture the interest of the iparHpg gentlemen throughout the town.

Just consider that at night on a dark road surface, a pedestrian in dark clothing, walking in the same direction as a motor vehicle is moving, cannot be seen by the driver under normal conditions until he is within 100 feet. If the car is being driven over 30 miles an hour it would be impoaitible to stop, under average conditions, before reaching the pedestrian. And yet walking isn't dangerous when pedestrians walk the right way, the safe way and the lawful way. Excerpt from The Highwty Act Province o British 3 WiGLfi M I.
