overhaul these criminals before

geant McCabe’s voice was tri-
umphant.
And just then a sharp explosion
rent the air, and the police car
leaped from the narrow road at a
sharp angle and lurched crazily to
a sudden stop in a rock-strewn
sandy field.
"No chance now," the Sergeant
complained. "They’ve escaped.
We’re beaten by a blow-out." The
criminals did escape that time. But,
thanks to Sergeant McCabe and
his men, they were later captured.
The solution to this havoc caused
by blow-outs has seemed to me to
depend on the manufacture of a
aafrr tire. That’s why the inventjon
of the Life-Saver Golden Ply by
Goodrich should be "good news" to
every American motorist. As one of
the Goodrich engineers explained.
