Fund Cut PeriIs
Another Project
Asked by Hansen

LdCe classes Tor l60 problem
pupils will begin in four public
school centers April 20 if the
chairman of the congressional
District committees approve.
But start of another proposed
rehabilitation program, special
classes for pregnant schoolgirls,
is seriously endangered by a
drastic cut in a request for
Federal funds, Supt. Carl F.
Hansen said yesterday.
The after-school classes, DR..
Hansen said, would draw half
their enrolment from junior
high and half from elementary
schools.
The centers would be set up
at Terrell and Woodson junior
highs, and Bundy and Perry
elementary schools.
Teachers Asked
A reduced request for 20 So
cial adjustment class teaching
positions has gone from the
Commissioners to the District
committee for approval. Thir-
teen Of the teachers would be
in the after-school project.
DR.. Hansen also said yester-
day that 7:30 am. voluntary
calisthenicS sessions, followed
by breakfast, would begin about
April rs for elementary young
sters at Bundy and Perry. The
program will be separate from
the after-school classes, he
said.
The superintendent was op-
timistic about the late after
noon classes and the expert
mental exercise program, but
acutely disappointed in the cut
in funds for the proposed pro-
ject to continue the education
of pregnant students.
OF the late afternoon special
classes, DR.. Hansen said he is
eager to get a portion Of the
experiment done this year to
find out IF 1t has any merit"
To the classes would be as
signed those who cannot func-
ton in regular classes" He
added that "there'll be no
trouble in finding candidates.
Until Z O'clock
The pupils would report at
$3.50 pm. for classes lasting
until 7 pm. (
If it is a success-keeping
kids in agood environment and
rehabilitation situation - then
we'll continue the program next
year." DR.. Hansen said. (
The junior high centers will
be stated with teams of four
including two subject matter
teachers. a shop and a physical
education teacher.
In the elementary expert I
ment will be two subject mat
ter and two shop teachers, with !
a fifth teacher acting as a |
counselor for the two centers.
Initial cost of the program
will be $37,500. paid for
through savings in other parts
of the school system.
While this program is faring
well, DR.. Hansen told a press
conference that "a very harsh
dilemma" faces the project for
pregnant schoolgirls under 16.
Last year, 236 girls were re-
ported pregnant and out of
school. Five were IL years old
and 35 were 13.
But HEW cut the school re-
quest for funds under the Chill
drens Bureau for this program
from $7O,50O to only $4,000 for
the first year.
We're going to have to de-
eide whether we can do any
thing worthwhile with $30,000."
DR.. Hansen said. He said that
both District school and HEW
people agreed that the project
should begin on the scale origi-
nally intended.
But this would mean coming
back for supplemental ap-
preparation by August to fl
nance the project further.

January 18. 1861. the effective
period OF the 1860 order.
Although the establishment
of the fund is in doubt because
of a company appeal of the
1860 case TO the United States
Supreme Court, the commits
sion indicated that even if the
$1.3 million becomes available,
it would not use it to reduce
fares or hold off future in
creases. The appeals court had
said the fund must be Used to
benefit transit riders and sug-
gested these two uses.
Prior Claims Seen
The WMATC did not rule
out these uses, but said there
would be prior claims on a
transit rider fund.
Ironically, these claims are
the very ones which would
arise from upsetting the 1860
fare increase. The WMATC
points out in its decision that
the Appeals Court grounds for
overruling the 1860 fare hike
were what it termed improper
and illegal charges to reserves
for track removal and repav-
ing, bus depreciation. and de-
probation on abandoned rail
properties.
While the WMATC says the
court may have been justified
in these rulings, the very act
Of eliminating these charges to
the fare payers in the 1860
fare order would still leave
these reserves deficient today
in the light Of its findings in
the present case.
Almost No Surplus Seen
The decision does not say
how much Of the transit rider
fund the reserve deficiencies
would eat up, but when asked
by The Star, Chairman Fred
erick j. Clarke said: I'VE
couldn't see that there would
be anything left"

torist should consider these
suggestions:
Heed all warning signs and
be on the lookout for stalled
vehicles and cars out of con-
troll, particularly on hills.
Keep your eyes on the road
and avoid being drawn into an
accident trap by observing traf-
fic patterns far ahead of your
car-half a block in town and
half a mile on the highway.
Yield the right-of-way, If
necessary. to avoid an accident.
Let honking motorists and
those riding your bumper pass
they are far less dangerous
when in front of you.
Look at your rear-view mir
ror frequently and keep posted
on the situation behind you.
Consider the whole traffic pat
tern, not just the cars i'm
mediately ahead.
Map out a plan of action
for every emergency. Condition
your mental reflexes to antici-
pate dangerous accident situa-
tions.
Beware of the hours from 4
to 7 pm, when most motorists
are tired and are rushing home.
Remember that ice. at 80 de-
grees. is twice as slippery as
it would be at zero tempera-
ture, when it's dry.
Evening star., 1963-02-05

Winter weather tests the
skills of all drivers. Snow and
ice are a challenge to ones
driving ability not an excuse
or alibi for an accident. Good
driving calls for a firm grip on
the steering wheel at all times,
heads-up control and a prop
erly maintained automobile.
In winter, drive defensively
by anticipating the mistakes of
other drivers. 1t is wise, safety
experts point out, to consider
these facts:
During winter you can't see
as well. There are many more
hours of darkness. each one
packed with three times the
dangers of daytime driving.
Snowstorms blanket your eyes.
They cover up roads, culverts
and guardrails. and eradicate
center lines. They block roads
with stalled vehicles and snow
plows. After the storm, binding
snow blows up clouds behind
passing vehicles-enough so as
to endanger pedestrians or
children at play. Remember
that snow and ice on your
windshield distort and conceal
objects on the road.
Chains Are Best
Skidding is involved in more
than half of all accidents on
snowy or icy roads. This is be-
cause tires may lose all but 10
per cent of the grip they pos
sess on dry pavement. Snow
tires are better, since they re-
store some 81 per cent Of lost
friction. Chains are best, but
they are not skid-proof. They
restore just about 40 per cent
of full tire traction. So. with
less traction. there is no chance
Evening star., 1963-02-05
How to Drive SofeIy In Winter Weather

the best way to slow a car on
icy and snowy pavements Is to
pump the brakes. This recon-
mendation is based on the fact
that the brakes must apply ef-
fectively.
Other Suggestions
1t is wise to check your
brake system at slow speeds.
If there is a side pull, have
1t adjusted promptly. so as not
to end up in a ditch or head-on
collision. Brakes that grab, lock
or drag are dangerous under
all driving conditions. They are
extra hazardous on ice or snow
covered highways. Make GER
tain, therefore, that your brake
system is in good working order
and that the Innings are not
worn beyond the limits Of safe
usage. In addition, check the
condition Of your tires. Wind
shield wipers. defroster, lights.
directional signals and horn
also should be functioning
properly.
Safe winter driving results
when motorists have the right
mental attitude, the physical
ability. the knowledge and the
skill necessary to meet sue
cessfully all types Of road
hazards. The practical mo-

for a sudden move to duck out
of a tight spot. For added trac-
ton and maneuverability on an
Icy or snowy hill, shift down to
low gear. Many transmission
Of today's automobiles have the
facility to lock into low or ex-
tra-low gear ratios. To keep
out Of trouble, take it easy on
wet, snowy and icy roads.
During winter, be prepared
for skidding. You should, how
ever. never find yourself In a
skid II you adjust your speed
to fit driving conditions. If
your car should start to skid,
keep cool and turn the steering
wheel in the direction that the
rear end is skidding. Accelerate
slowly, leaving the engine en-
gagged and, at the same time,
pump the brake lightly with
the left foot. AS the car begins
to straig hten out, start
Strengthening out the front
wheels. Then reduce speed
gradually, letting the engine
brake the car. If you must
stop. continue pumping the
brake lightly. To stay out of
skids, avoid sudden turns,
stops, and fast acceleration.
Always make slow and smooth
steering movements.
Harder to Hear
During winter, your hearing
is handicapped. Closed windows
are like ear muffs. It's harder
to hear warning signals from
other automobiles. trucks or
trains. Don't forget, they can't
hear as we'll eith@. Guard
against being overcome by car
bon monoxide fumes, which are
colorless and ordorless. but
deadly. Keep two windows par
TALLY open at all times to
maintain a circulation of fresh
air.
During winter, your reaction
time is slower. Weighed down
with heavy clothing, boots,
rubbers. and the like for low
temperature conditions, your
arms and legs are not very fast.

The documents on that crisis
are less satisfactory than on
any other major problem of
the Kennedy administration,
whether in domestic affairs
or in foreign policy.
After a meeting in his Of

en- sent a memorandum to
the participants, giving his
summary of the main points
in the discussion and his I'M
derstanding Of the decisions

replies from his colleagues

portant body Of evidence.
There is a good record of
his conversations with fore
ign visitors and leaders. If
the visitor were a leader of
an opposition party, Presi-
dent Kennedy might often
write a brief memorandum
for his own file and give a
more detailed summary of
the talk informally to his

with the actual leaders of
foreign governments was de-
signed to strengthen the
