Safety week scheduled in state of Indiana

During the next few weeks, nearly a million Indiana children will be starting school, many of them for the first time. To promote the safety of the youngsters, the Chicago Motor Qub-AAA is conducting its 27th annual Schoofs Open Safety campaign. The program is designed primarily to remind motorists that children soon will be walking to and from school again. Governor Otis Bowen has joined the club’s safety campaign by designating September 3-9 as “School’s Open Safety Week” in Indiana In his proclamation. Governor Bowen noted that the first week of school is a particularly dangerous period for those school children who will be starting to school for the first time and for those who might have forgotten

their safety lessons over the summer months. Governor Bowen said, “During the school year all citizens are urged to assist the 40,000 school safety patrol boys and girls in Indiana to help protect our greatest asset, the children of our state, in going to and from school” Motor club president Gerald W. Cavanagh welcomed the support of Governor Bowen and urged all motorists to be extremely cautious when children are near the street or road not only during the first few back-to-school days, but throughout the entire year. Cavanagh emphasized that this cooperation by motorists has been a vital factor in reducing by 50 per cent the accident rate for school children since the Chicago Motor club first founded the lifesaving school safety patrol in

1990. Noting the patrol s outstanding record of more than 19,000 lives saved in the Motor club’s Indiana and Illinois territory during the first half century of service, Cavanagh urged parental responsibility for child pedestrian safety. “Parents must educate their children in the ways of traffic safety especially in the fall when many of the youngsters are attending school for the first time,” he said.
