Parents, prepare to be corrected by your pre-schooler. Graduates from Safety City are trying to save your life too. Pre-school children can now learn pedestrain, motorist and household safety habits at Safety City, the'miniature city located in the parking lot at Forest Manor Junior High School. Indianapolis Public Schools and the Indianapolis Downtown Optimist Club are co-sponsoring the program, the first of its kind in the city. Children ages four to seven attend the two-hour, daily sessions free of charge. Each child is enrolled in the program for two weeks. The ida of Safety City is modeled after the national program known as Safety Town. This effort is being made to educate children at an early •stage against safety hazards through lessons, demonstra tions, field trips and actual
participation. While participating in the program, each child takes turns being a motorist by driving a big wheel down Friendly Lane or Alert Avenue, the kindergarten scaled streets. Being a pedestrian is also part of the lesson, and the youngster learns the proper way to cross .the street and obey all signs. IPS furnishes the facilities, while the Optimist Club finances the trial program. Volunteers from the Indianapo lis Police Department Explorer Post #435 instruct and super vise the pre-schoolers at both
morning and afternoon ses sions. Classroom teaching is used to learn the different road signs, listen to “Officer Friendly" and practice household safety habi. s, such as the correct way to use scissors. The group also visits a fire station. Learning his/her own ad dress and phone number is yet another goal each child should achieve by attending Safety City. Based on the success at Forest Manor, plans for three more Safety Cities around Indianapolis are being dis cussed for next year.

WASHINGTON - A delegation of five black Baptist ministers, headed by the Rev. Henry C. Gregory of Shiloh Baptist Church here, has been invited to preach July 7-21 in Russian Baptist churches in Moscow, Lenigrad and Kiev. The trip, partially paid for and sponsored by the Baptist and Evangelical Union in the Soviet Union, “is an attempt to cut away the myths that divide us,” Gregory said. The team of ministers include the Rev. Howard Fauntroy, pastor of First Baptist Church in Detroit, and a distant cousin of Rev. Walter Fauntroy, a congressional delegate for the District of Columbia. Also included in the delegation are the Rev. Charles Walker of 19th Street Baptist in Philadel phia, a well-known composer of religious music; the Rev. Cecil Clark, pastor of the Good Street Baptist Church in Dal las, and the Rev. Wyatt Ted Walker, pastor of Canaan Bap list Church in New York City. Gregory, who has spoken to Russian Baptist congregations twice previously, said Russians enjoy the “spiritualism” of the black Baptist experience. _ “I was told that when black -ministers come here to preach, the churches are crowded, more so than when white
“Their style is Southern Baptist,” Gregory said, "and they have three sermons, several prayers and an alter call in their three hour worship service. "Being evangelical, they are Bible-oriented. The sermon > are all based on the Bible, not socially oriented," he said. "The social problems such as housing are left up to the government.” In some ways, Gregory said, Russian Baptists and evangeli cal Christians, a group he estimated to be above 500,000 strong, identify with the struggles of minorities in the United States. “They identify with tMartin Luther) King and wit the prosecution of black people here. When I traveled there before (to the World Peace Conference held last year in Russia) people who couldn't even speak English would see and say "Martin Luther King," Gregory said.

Gregory said. “They like To hear the Negro spirituals, but they don’t shout like we do here in the churches. They do weep and say “Ah-meen’ rather than
amen,” he said.

Quite often in previous commentaries I have challenged Black Americans to re-strengthen our family units. I'm certain tharall of you understand the necessity of getting families to eat together, communicate with one another, and above all respect each other. But perhaps some of you parents need a ‘‘push’' that will bring you closer to each other. Read these words from Charles Jefferys: Just maybe you II learn how to tell your mate, “We have lived and loved together." “We have lived and loved together through many changing years; we have shared each other s gladness and wept each other s tears; I have known ne’er a sorrow that was long unsoothed by thee; for thy smiles can make a summer where darkness else would be. We have lived and loved together through many changing years; we have shared each other s gladness and wept each other's tears. And let us hope the future, as the past has been will be: I will share with thee my sorrows, and thou thy joys with me.” Jde'&hck Vice President The Greyhound Corporation
