than 80 violent eruptions

Teaching the Deaf

It is with shock that I read
your November 3 article on
the book. "Sign Language

Visual Communication Sys-
TENS OF the American Deaf"
Why should anyone use
sign language and why
should anyone teach 1t? Years
ago Alexander Graham Bell
proved that the severely hard

could learn to speak and
understand spoken language
and thus become useful and

protection OF people ana
their property. Yet no Law
can cover every conceivable
circumstance or situation.
Therefore. discreet and rea.
sonable Interpretation and
administration OF the law by
law officers assumes utmost
importance. This means that
the individual policeman
must be flexible in his direct
and indirect administration
OF the law, and must modify
his actions so they are ap-
propriate 20 q given situa.
ton.
This does not appear to be
the case with the residents
Of the Dupont circle area In
reference to their parking
problems. Parking space in
this area is painfully inade-
quate and area policemen do
not appear to take this into
consideration when ticketing
cars for parking violations.
Many streets in the area
have q two hour parking
limit IN spite OF the fact that
there Is adequate space In
parking lots for Connecticut
avenue shoppers. This creates
an added hardship on local
residents. particularly those.
who do not use their cars
during the day. Cans are
ticketed II they exceed the
time limit in given parking
spaces on the street and II
they do not yigidly conform
to the legal minimum park
ing distances from alleys and
intersections which appear
to be unnecessarily long. The
police officers in giving these
tickets are. Of course, legally
justified. but are their ac-
tions in so doing appropriate
to the situation, and do they
take into account the prob.
lens faced by the residents
Of the area? I do not think 50.
I would like to make the
following suggestions which T
feel are realistic and would
ease the situation consider
ably Tor all concerned:
!. Elimination Of the two
hour parking limit on all
streets In the Dupont circle
area except Connecticut ave-
nue.. since. as aforemen.
TONED. there is adequate
parking space for shoppers In
parking lots.
2. Painting white lines on
the sides Of the streets, per-
pendicular to the curb, there
by sectioning of an optimum
number Of parking places on
each street.
3. Less rigid enforcement
OF comparatively minor park
ing regulations and increas-
1ngly strict enforcement of
some or all OF the following:
a. Driving In the city with
high beams on. thereby tend
ing TO blind both oncoming
drivers and those in front
through their reas.view mir
rof.
b. Slow driving In inside
lanes.
c. Making turns from tn
correct lanes.
q. Needless horn blowing
and noisy mufflers.
e. Headlights and rear
tights not In adequate work.
ing order.
Z. Excessive speed. especi.
ally in populated areas.
I feel that greater enforce
ment OF the above would be
more in the interests of Dis.
trict residents welfare and
protection than the appar.
emily over.strict enforcement
Of parking regulations.

displacing slightly more than
$50 cubic inches.
1t is the innovations Of the
individual car builders which
make a difference. That and
the drivers abilities, of course.
and such things as pit crew
efficiency and luck, but in
these years Of the thorough
domination of the. Meyer
Drake engines at Indianapolis,
the car builders have been re-
ceiving a deserved major share
of the credit.
Again in the forefront of the
cars judged most equal" are
the ones constructed by A. j.
Watson, a 36-year-old genius
from California who has had
three Indianapolis winners in
nine years. This year roughly
a third of the field is Watson
built, including the nine fast
est qualifiers!
- -
Watson, a crew-cut blond,
trim of build and a spotleSs
dresser even at work, first ar
rived as an engineer Of In
dianapolis race cars with the
encourage of John link, a
Tulsa oil man who made a
determined assault on the old
brickyard in the early 1950s.
The link enterprises got a
seventh place finish in 1852,
Jimmy Reece driving, and,
after the famed Bill Vukovich
won two straight years in the
Fuel Injection Specials, the
Watson-built John link Spe-
cials climbed to the top Of the
heap in 1855 and Sc.
Bob Sweikert and Pat Fla
herty were the winning drivers,
respectively, but neither came
within two miles per hour of
Vukovich's record 500 mile
average Of 130.840. Then came
the two-year domination of the
Belond Specials with their rad
ically tilted engines, which
threatened to revolutionize
roadster design because of i'm
proved handling qualities.
In September of 1858, Wat
son signed on with Bob Wilkes
Leader Card, Inc, a Milwaukee
printing concern whose owner
has sponsored various types of
racing cars for a quarter-cen-
tury. The car Watson put to-
gether for Wilke swept the
board last Memorial Day.

Rodger Ward drove the Lead
er Card Special to victory at q
record average of 135.857 m. phi.
and along the way established
new marks for $50, 300, 400 and
$50 miles. Jim Rathmann was
second in the Simoniz Special,

another Watson car. Both
housed engines sitting straight
up under the hood.
At the outset of 10-mile
qualifying runs a week ago Sat-
urday, it was clear that Wat
son had not lost his touch.
Sixteen cars qualified that first
day, and the six fastest-the
entire first two rows-were
handcrafted by the young CAL
ifornian. Also, Chuck Steven
son drove last years winning
car to ninth starting position.
The following day six more
qualified, and Johnny Thom-
son and Tony Bettenhausen
were the fastest that Sunday
in two brand-new Watson pro-
ductions, with Thomson only
.149 m.p.h. slower than Eddie
Sachs, who had won the pole
position at a record 1852.
=
However. the most senSa-
tional development Of the 1860
preliminarieS came a week
later. Bothered by rain and
high winds all last week END,
the final IL cars qualified Sum-
day to complete the field, and
a rookie driver named Jim
HurtubiSe, 27-year-old Coast
Guard veteran from Lennox,
Calf. blew sky high the rec
ords for both one lap and four
laps.
On the treacherous 21a-mile
track which had defied aver
age speeds of 148 miles per
hour, Hurtubise clocked 149 COL

for his best lap and 149.O56 for
four.
You guessed it. 1t was q
Watson car, the one in which
Ed Eliasian burned to death
last year at Milwaukee. Then
it was painted green, q color

JUVENILE JUDGE ANSWERS
QUESTIONS ON DELINQUENCY
BY Judge Lester II. Lobe, Judge of the
Juvenile Court, Helena. Montana

do get considerable in the way
of results.
@. Is the juvenile problem the
same in every community?
A. Not at all. Every community,
every child, every problem is
dirrerent. No two children are
the same; they cannot be dealt
with by a formal. They must be
dealt with individually with a
kind heart, patience but firmness.
But whatever the community
there must be an overall flexible
plan. Either the Juvenile hoodlums
will run the town, or the juvenile
judge will see that they don't.
@. Is there hope for the future?
A. There is if we get our heads
out of the sand. The problem is a
nome problem--parents must face
up to their responsibilities. Too
many homes T boarding houses
where everyone scatters after
dinner. The old-fashioned home
and parent can and should be
returned--by persuasion if posi-
bic, by force if necessary.
q. How about organizations
for youngsters?
A. l have never had before me
an active Boy Scout, Girl Scout,
Campfire Girl, All, or member of
a similar group, or a youngster
who is a regular attendant of
the Sunday school or church of
his choice. These organizations
are real character builders and
the adults who so unselfishly
give of their time and energy in
these worthwhile groups are
entitled to everlasting praise.
Q. Is there any formula to
correct conditions?
A. 1 have made some suggest
ions. To be a juvenile judge
r equires patience, kindness
S ness, understanding and
above all, the ability to accept
diSappointments. No uvenil l.
!, judge has all the answers. But WE
