Ir. addition, Owen and an assistant will continue safety talks in the schools, visiting at least five schools daily, telling children where the nearest playground is located and conducting an educational program to induce the children to use the playgrounds and not to play in the street.

CITY SCHOOLS, USE NEW FIRE ORILLSYSTEM Teachers and Pupil Traffic Officers Are Assigned Separate Duties, School fire ca lastrophies of the past prove that one-third of the casualties result from children rushing down stairways directly into the danger zone and that an even larger percentage of accidents result from children attempting to use an exit blocked by smoke, flames or debris. Under the new fire drill system recently inaugurated by Indianapolis public schools, teachers and school traffic officers are assigned stations in the building, forming a safety corps under the direction of the principal. Captains appointed by the principal are responsible for drill on their respective floors. Alarm Signal Given A simple but effective signal of designating a blocked stairway is given with the general fire alarm. At the first sound of the alarm, members of the safety corps take their stations while pupils form ranks within the rooms. At the command of “march” children march from their rooms and are led to stairways and exits beyond the danger area. Disabled pupils are assisted to safety by school traffic officers. A quick but thorough search is made of the entire building for any child who might have fainted, stumbled and fallen. As the building is vacated the pupils are conducted a safe distance from the scene. School traffic officers clear the streets of traffic that the fire department will not be delayed upon arrival. Recall to the building is given by distinctive signals that can not be mistaken. Safety Experts Approve System Indianapolis is one of the first cities in the country to install the improved regulations. The drill has been approved and recommended by the Exit Code, a scientific treatise on the subject by underwriters and safety experts of national reputation. The new drill regulations are the result of efforts of a special committee appointed by Paul C. Stetson, superintendent of schools and chairman, consisting of Julian Wetzel, school commissioner; E. H. Kemper McComb, Manual Training high school principal; Belle Hamey, principal of School 76: Dr, W. A. Ocker, director of physical education; Tod Stoops, Hoosier Motor Club; Virgil Ferguson, Indianapolis fire prevention bureau; Lieutenant Frank Owen, Indianapolis police department, and F. H. Sinex, Indiana inspection bureau.
