Ohio Bridges Strained Rubber Highways Stand By Heavily-Loaded Trucks

Ohio highway officials report 181 bridge failures on the state system from 1929 to 1953, with 77 total losses and 11 partial ones. Truck loads and collisions contributed to many failures, and a quarter of bridges are unsafe for heavy loads.

Rare First Edition Turns Up In Utah

A glass encased copy of the first regular US newspaper The Boston News-Letter dates to 1702 and is believed the fourth copy in existence. Discovered by Bert Dailey, a ten-year-old Utah pioneer descendant, in a family Bible with origins tied to a 1850 wagon journey. University of Utah professor Quintus C. Wilson notes high collector value regardless of if it is a true original.
