CALLS TRUSTEE “IN SCHOOL BUS

SAFETY CHECK|

Feeney to Give Township

Officer Ultimatum to Make Repairs.

Sheriff Al Feeney announced today that a township trustee who has failed to make his school busses conform to state safety regulations had been summoned to the Sheriff's office and will be given a 48-hour ultimatum. Unless the trustee acts within that time to conform to the law, name will be made public and drivers of his busses will be arrested, Mr. Feeney said. All of the 96 township school busses in the county, serving 44 schools with cbout 16,000 pupils, were inspected last fall by Deputy Sheriff John Dora, Marion County accident prevention directer, who gave the trustees a list of changes necessary. The changes have been made in all but 5 per cent of these busses, Mr. Feeney said. Of the eight busses operated under supervision of the trustee summoned by the Sheriff, two have serious defects from a safety standpoint, while five have no heaters. The two, Mr.

Feeney said, have seats blocking|

safety exits. The Sheriff said that the cost of making the necessary changes is so little that “failure to make them almost represents criminal negligence.”
