Parents Help
Teachers Train
Kid TODriue
BY EDWARD S. KITcH


OAK PARK, H. AP)-H Oak
Park parents want their kids to
learn to drive, they have to sign
up too.
School officials say this is the
only place in the United States
where they are approaching par
ents with contract.
Before a teen-aeer can enroll in
the high school driver training
course, dad has to sign a contract
agreeing to give the student at
least eight hours of actual on-the-
street practice in the family car.
''The success of the course"
says instructor Ray C. Soliday, sis
in keeping the parents interested. {"
To find out just what and how
their kids are learning, parents
come to school for three evenings
during the semester to see tests
and instruction.
This is what happens during the
classes held twice a week for Is
weeks at Oak Park, one Of the first
high schools in the country to in
stall driver training as a course of
study:
Students use Drivotrainers,
units built like the front seat of an
automobile with steering mechan-
ism, standard shift, clutch and
brake pedals connected to an cleo
trical recording system.
The instructor is able to read a
printed record of the students re-
sponses to series of driving in
structions and traffic violations
presented in IL Institutional and
test films.
Early in the course the kids
must demonstrate a knowledge of
traffic laws and regulations, park
ing restrictions, signs and signals.
Visual tests and reaction time
checks are given.
Then state examiners come to
the school fe1 the official tests for
Institutional permits.
Although only in Oak Park do
parents and teachers work togeth-
er in just this way to make safe
drivers of youngsters, other places
are aware of the problem.
Of the United States 1900 high
schools, a little more than out of
10 offer some kind of driver edu-
cation. Three states-North Dako-
ia, California and Virginia-make
such training in school compulsory.
DR.. Forest r. Noffsinger, driver
training authority with the Traffic
Institute of Northwestern Univer-
sity, says it's possible to cut down,
if not out, the number of traffic
deaths by training young drivers
in high schools.
One of the Institutes surveys
shows that high school trained
DRIVERS have only one fourth to
one-half as many traffic accidents
as those without driver education
experience.
The driver training program in
the state of Washington is credited
with reducing the young driver &C.
cident rate by 40 per cent last
year.
But many schools hesitate to set
up the course because equipment
is expensive and on-the-road train
ing is costly. Installations like
the Oak Park Drivotrainer class
room represent $4,000 invest
ment. DR.. Noffsinger says it, costs
an average of $50 a student to train
him to drive on the road. Despite
the cost, however, schools offering
road practice increased from 200
to 400 this year.
eff having driver education in
the United States at a cost of Is
million dollars saves the life of one
child, it's worth WHILE" sums up
~ Noffc;poar

Anti-PoNution Proqrum

The Interstate Commission on
the Potomac last night proposed
a 13-point action program for
pollution abatement in the
Washington metropolitan Area.
These are the recommenda-
tions:
/. That secondary treatment
facilities that will remove 85
per cent of the pollution from
the river be provided in the
Metropolitan Area.
2. Planning and construc-
ton of treatment facilities
should be accelerated so that
recommended water uses in
the area can be realized at the
earliest possible date.
3. Cooperative investiga-
tions should be continued of
waste assimilation capacity of
the Potomac waters and tribu-
tarieS.
4. A careful study should be
made of the responsibilities
Of the local communities and
the Federal Government with
respect to sewage works
financing. This study should
be made by an official joint
body of the agencies involved.
Because Of the tax exempt
status of the Government and
the vast amount of facilities
it has in the metropolitan area,
the report states, some means
must be found to divide the
cost Of the needed treatment
works so that the individual
local community and the Fed
eral Government each con-
tribute its just share toward
the project.
5. The rate Of sewer extern
Sions in new developments
! should be increased to ac-
commodate those areas where
cesspools are in service and
do not operate satisfactorily.
6. The Anacostia River
trunk sewer should be placed
under construction at the
earliest possible moment and
rushed to completion. Steps
also should be taken immedi-

Where the Governments Aid
Is Needed to Fight Pollution

The Interstate Commission
on the Potomac Riper Basin
used these ,DordS in pointing
to the urgent need for greater
cooperation of the Federal
Government in cleaning up
Potomac pollution:
An evaluation of the re-
sponsibilities and obligations
of the Federal and local
governments with respect to
financing sewage works is
lacking.
The Federal Government,
with its vast number of
installations in the Wash
ington area, is tax exempt
