Fool

One day last week, in La Maison Franchise of Manhattan's Rockefeller Center, Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and four assistant jurors inspected 3,026 "Drive Safely" posters, then chose for first prize one painted by Keith Shaw of Manhattan. The prize: $1,000, offered by Devoe & Raynolds Co., Inc., paint manufacturers. The winning poster: a skeleton hand blanketing the rear license plate of a speeding automobile with a red-lettered plate: FOOL.* Second prize, $250, was won by F. S. Brunner of Philadelphia. The second poster: a gory accident, with the legend: It can happen to YOU.

* No skeleton hand but several dents have defaced Roosevelt license plates. Both Son James and Son John have been dressed down for speeding, and John, with James in the car, once sideswiped a railroad train. Son Franklin Jr. has five times been stopped for speeding, has had two collisions, once was sued for knocking down a Mrs. O'Leary of Boston.
