"My answer to them is, what are the three R's if the child get to school to learn them?" Constable McDermid said that the year before the patrols were rganized, there were 37 children involved in traffic accidents. The first year the patrols were in op- eration, this number was cut to 12, and none of these were from schools where patrols had been organized. He concluded by stating that co-operation of the Kinsmen club has been invaluable to the patrols, In a question and answer ses- sion, after his talk, the officer was asked if he has any authority to fiscat bicycles from patrol capta Another patrol member, h acts as clerk, keepin, the records of the pupils brought before the court, "If a pupil is up for a first of- fence," he said, "a severe lec- ture is generally sufficient, in the way of punishment." He went on to describe the pen- alties levied from second third offenders. If a student has disobeyed traffic rules, while rid- ing a bicycle, he said, he is re- quired to memorize a poem, deal- ing with safe cycling. If the pupil is brought before the court on a further charge, he is requested to leave his bicycle at home and walk to school for a week or so. "This has never failed yet," Con- stable McDermid said. He added that in case of yet another offence, or if the pupil does not leave the bike at home for the required time, it can be confiscated for a month, Memorizing, and composing safety poems, are the penalties for jaywalking and other pedes- trian offences, he said. "We are not trying to abuse our authority with these al- "| otf lenders. 'Yes," he said, "a bicycle is registered the same as a motor vehicle, and can be confiscated if it is driven carelessly." He had a lengthy answer for the next question, which was '"The Kin supply equipment for the patrols. Can we do anything more?" Constable McDermid ri that he can certainly use help with the Saturday night dances, at Simcoe Hall. He explained that patrol members, and their riends, hold a dance every Sat urday, and that he supervises, "I haven't had a Saturday night off for two years," he sald. He pointed out that the more chil dren who attend the dances, the fewer there are on the ly He added that in two Rp the patrols have realized by 10 and 20 cent admission fee to the dances. His second suggestion was that one of the Kin see to it that the "Elmer" safety flag is lowered at a school where a child has been in an accident, "It will mean this isn't ties," he said.
