Trooper Says All
Traffic Signs To
Be 0beyed, Noted

Traffic signs, signals and mark
ings are silent policemen" Cpl.
Paul Peterson of the Ohio State
Highway Patrol at London warned
motorists today as he discussed the
Importance of obeying the Signs
Of Life.
All signs should be observed the
same as if a traffic officer were
stationed with every traffic sign"
he said.
The patrol officer explained that
the purpose of this months pro-
gram is to focus attention on traf-
tic signs-called Signs of Life. 1"
The program is designed to en-
courage recognition and observ-
ance of all traffic signs in an eff
fort to cut down traffic accidents.
He advised motorists to learn
the sign shapes and know the
meaning of each one so they can
be recognized at once The six
signs, shapes and meanings are:
OCTAGON, the Stop sign, is red
with white letters or yellow with
black letters. 1t means come to a
full stop and be sure the way is
clear before proceeding.
RECTANGLE, white with black
lettering, states the law, including
speed limits, parking regulations
and turning and passing regula-
tionS.
DIAMOND, warning, yellow
with black lettering, warns of
school zones, curves, side roads,
intersections and other hazardous
conditions ahead.
ROUND, yellow with black X
and RR. This Identifies a railroad
highway crossing ahead.
CROSSBUCK, the tall white
railroad crossing sign stands at the
crossing itself.
TRIANGLE, the newest sign, is
yellow with black lettering and
means Yield right of way. This
sign requires drivers to give the
right of way to cross traffic by
slowing down and being ready to
stop if necessary.
Cpl. Peterson cautioned pedes-
trians to know and obey all signs,
signals and pavement markings di-
recting pedestrian movements.
These include traffic lights and
signals and crosswalk lines at in
tersections.
The pedestrian and motorist
share responsibility in preventing
pedestrian accidents" he said.

BACKING OF SCOUTS
Goal Of Current Fund Drive Is $1,000,
With 6o% Of That Amount Report
ed Realized So Far

/ The following is from letter
written by Judge Chester r. Nor
ris of Coinjock to the people of the
Albemarle Boy Scout District,
which is currently conducting its
annual fund drive:
"The six-county district COM
posed of Camden, Chowan, Curri-
tuck, Dare, Gates, and Perquimans

of its goal realized as follows:
Pasquotank United Fund, $4,000;

500; and Henry Stokes, Hartford,
$3.50. The goal is $4,000.

offender has exemplified such a
feeling of embarrassment for hav-
ing violated his Scout Law that it
was apparent to me that the re-
calling of his Scout Oath was such
a shock to jolt him into a sense of
responsibility to his fellow man
and his community; that seldom if
ever does one see a repeater in
the criminal courts where Boy
Scouting has had chance with
him in early life.
"The fund raising for Scouting
is now on. The question that
should predominant our thinking
when the solicitor of funds for
Scouting calls upon us is: What
would / invest in a boy to make
him decent, self-respecting, law
abiding citizen in his community?
when the question is solemnly
asked of us by ourselves individ-
ually, / dare say that most of us
would give willingly.

to ones community than to prop
erly prepare our youth for the re-
sponsibilities of tomorrow. / know
of no finer method of making
such contribution than through
the medium of Boy Scouting"

CINCINNATI - L a C k of
leadership among Ia y m e n
was deplored here by Albert
]. Sattler, retiring president
of the National Council of
Catholic Men, at the organi-
Zation'S biennial convention.
"This is the time when the
Church requires more leadership
than ever BEFORE" Mr.. Sattler, a
New York City attorney said.
"We do not have sufficient
Catholic leaders, not enough
men to go out and work and take
over responsibility.
eff we do not get that leader
ship, we eventually will face the
same situations which have con-
fronted those in the countries be-
hind the Iron Curtain. 1t would
have been a different story if
the Catholic men there had
faced up to their responsibili-
ties"
Mr.. Sattler emphasized the
Importance of the leadership
training programs in Catholic
Action which the National Coun-
Gil of Catholic Men today is
sponsoring in various fields.
The convention was opened
formally with Mass for the
delegates offered in st. Louis
Church by Auxiliary Bishop Clar-
ence G. Issenmann of Cincinnati.
At a meeting of the executive
committee, it was voted that the
first military council of Catholic
men in the European theater
shall be formed this year. The
organizational arrangements for
it will be made on June 8 and 9
in Berchtesgaden, Germany.

director, will fly to Europe to

Hour Wins
.AUard Here

The Ave Maria Radio Hour has
received honorable mention for
national religious programs at
the 2lst American Exhibition of
Educational Radio and Television
Programs, sponsored here an
nually by Ohio State University.
The Ave Maria Radio Hour,
produced by the Franciscan Fri
ars of the Atonement in Garri-
son, NY, recently observed its
22nd anniversary. The awards
presented here are often referred
to as the Pulitzer prizes of the
audio-video field.
The citation for the award
states: "The Ave Maria Hour dra-
matically presents the inner
struggle of human beings who
try to live Christian life. The
situations have universal appeal,
and the expertly produced pro-
grams inspire a deep sense of
reverence"
Since 1885 the Ave Maria Hour
has presented weekly radio dra-
matizations of the lives of saints
on almost 400 stations in the US.
and Canada and also 300 sta
tions overseas through the world
wide facilities of the Armed
Forces Radio Service.
The program is directed by

need for Catholic men to appear
before fraternal, community and

"On every possible occasion, !"

a place on local radio and TV
program, so as to get the teach
ings of Christ's one true Church
to our fellow Americans"

Chicago, executive secretary of
the National Office for Decent

Lack Of Leadership Deplored

in 5000 organizations throughout
