Urge Parents Teach Safety On Bicycles Urge Basic Safety Rules To Children NEW YORK (UP) — Bicycles and back-to-school go together like ABCs. But unfortunately, they also combine to increase the number of accidents to children Last year, 480 youngsters were killed and 35,000 injured in bicycle accidents, most of them in collisions with cars. TTie toll' liSTon the increase for two reasons — more young people and more bikes. It is estimated there are 21 million children using the twowheelers. "Most of these accidents could be prevented, had' we taught our children the basic rules of safe bicy c1 i n g,” said Monroe D. Schackner, director of safety education for Johnson and Johnson. Schackner is founder and director of a bicycle safety program, which since its start last spring has been used in some 2,400 communities. It has the blessing of the National Safety Council and the Bicycle Institute of America. Has Safety Kit Safety should be taught at home and school,” said Schackner, a bicycling enthusiast. He’s put together a safety kit for schools fit’s available for the asking), which includes a manual for teachers, student literature, written and riding tests, and a prizewinning color sound film called "Play It Safe.” Schackner said the kit grew out of his work with city leaders in White Plains, N.Y. They started a continuing safety campaign after 14 bike accidents in two weeks. The town now happily boasts that in two years it has had only one bike accident ’’When children return to school, the accident rate goes up,” said Schackner. "The grade school kids are the most frequent victims. They are the least skilled riders .. . don’t have the common sense of older children and will take unnecessary chances.” He compiled this list of 10 rules by which parents can help their children to safety. —Make sure the bicycle is the right size for the child. Need Good Brakes —Give the bicycle a mechanical check, with special attention to brakes. —ls the youngster rides at night, provide him with a headlight bright enough to be seen at a distance of 500 feet, and with a red light or reflector at the rear, bright enough to be seen 300 feet. —Teach the child to ride with both hands on the handlebars. —Make sure he knows not to make a left turn in traffic. —A child should never ride with another person on the bicycle This weakens his control of the bike. —He should use hand signals to indicate his intention to turn or stop. —No stunt riding on the street. —Teach him to look carefully for approaching vehicles when he rides into a street from driveway or alley. —And equip the child's bike with a basket or carrier, so he won’t be tempted to carry pack-! ages in his hands.

Temperature Near Normal In Summer * Report Near Normal Summer In Indiana INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — The three summer months just pa§t produced the most nehrly normal temperature averages of any such span in Indiana in many a year. Weather Bureau statistics showed today that June, July and August each had monthly temperature averages less than one degree departure from normal. June’s 72.1 average at Indianapolis was .7 of a degree above normal, July’s 75.4 was .6 of a degree below normal, and August’s 73.4 was 6 of a degree below normal. ’ Figures for other Indiana stations were not available but temperatures this summer have followed pretty much the normal pattern—lower north and higher south. • In the 92-day period from June 1 to Aug. 31, the mercury hit 90 only 10 times in the Hoosier capital. No long heat wave baked the area. Four of the 90-or-better temperatures came in August, four in July and two in June for a favorable spacing. At no time did the temperature exceed 93, and that was in June. July and August tops were 92. One has to dig back to 1948 before finding a summer in which the June-through-August period produced temperatures anyways near as close to norms as those this year. And even before that, instances were extremely rare where each of the three hotweather months came within a hair of normal averages. The 73.4-degree average for August compared with a record 80 5 [high in 1936 and a record 67.5 low lin 1915. The 75.4-degree average

for July compared with a record 82.8 high in 1936 and a record 70.6 low in 1947.
