Operators ‘of the trolleys and busses in the Indianapolis Railways system pointed out today that school students can aid in speeding war workers to their jobs by following four “war-time transportation tips.” Because thousands of war work-

ers and men employed in vital jobs daily use the trolleys and busses to reach their jobs, the transit firm pointed out that school students can be helpful in

lem if they will:

vance. 2. Move to rear of the cars. 3. Avoid riding during. rush hours. 4. Give | themselves plenty of time to reach destinations. : The first point is a great timesaver, - officials declared. “If a patron . takes time to look for change after boarding or presents the operator with a bill, considerable time is lost to all riders on the vehicle, many of whom may be war workers. “When a single instance is multiplied by several thousand such instances throughout the day, the

hours. Patrons can board the vehicle quickly and get started promptly to their desinations when they have the exact fare ready in advance.” Point No. 2, “Move to the rear of the cars,” is a suggestion prompted by the fact that every bit of available space on each trip must be used. With approximately 75,000 more riders every day than last year at this time, all available space must be utilized to prevent delays to passengers, such as war workers, who must report on time to their jobs. “In addition, patrons who move to the rear énjoy a more comfortable ride because much congestion is eliminated. Frequently patrons who crowd at the front of a transit vehicle will overlook vacant seats in the rear of the car. Give war workers the “right-of-way” during rush-hour peaks is ‘the implication of point No. 3, “Avoid . riding during- the rush P hours.” Through the co-opera-

hours were changed in September so that, for the most part, school students need not use transit service during the rush-

WhHen' this happens to school ‘students, they may be late to class.’ So’ point No. ‘4, “Give yourself plenty of time to reach your destinction,” urges school students and "all others to leave home" earlier than usual because unavoidable delays may occur due to traffic conges-" tion and overloaded vehicles. . | Officials of Indianapolis ‘Rail-
