School Patrolmen. ‘The patrolmen of this school -are headed by Capt. Edward Deebo, Who has as his lieutenant Hugh Davis, with the following patrolmen: Ellswerth Shannon, Robert Oxenham, Robert Brodie and Albie Auderback. They are sald to be the pioneer schoolboy patrol- men of Montgomery County, and their appointment grew out of the unfortu- nate injuring of a member of the school | body, who was seriously hurt soon. after I'the session started earlier in the Fail when struck by an automobile . after alghting from one of the school busses. Some of the children attending this ;chonl have to uu‘cnihof uu‘lhost ANgerous passa; for the pedestrians in this section ome country. Itis the crossing of Cabin John Bri the structure which carries the W n water condult, and it is topped a vehicular passage barely wide enough for automobiles to pass. There is no walkway for pedestrians. To. guard the children who must use this struc- ture in going to and from school, two of the schoolboy patrolmen will be spe~ cially detailed morning and and during the midday recess to keep & constant vigll on the lives of their little charges. Others will be placed on the school busses and will alight at each stop to make sure that the chil- dren reach a place of safety before the bus departs. Chosen for Leadership. J. E. Thornton, grmclpll of the school, who presided at the presentation of the belts and badges, and the for- mal mustering in of the patrol, said that the young men had been from the entire school group because of qualities of leadership which they displayed. He introduced to the as- semblage W. M. Ogden of the American Automobile Association, sponsor of the ! schoolboy patrol system to guard the lives of the young ones. ! Mr. Ogden pointed out to. the chi dren that the service of their ¢lassmates to protect them from the dangers of present-day traffic was a volunteer one and that the service must have the ap- proval of the parents of the boys who agree to serve. He told the patrolmen that they could be relieved at any time upon request. He also impressed upon them, certain rules of safety, pointing out to them that they must only cross highways at intersections; that they must look first to the left and then to the right before | crossing, and that they must never ate tempt to cross at a run, because they might fall. and b2 unable to get up be- {fore some approaching vehicle over- takes and injures them. As each of the candidates were called forward and presented with his belt and badge he received an évation from. the nuplls and’ the meeting closed . with i | three rousing cheers for the patrolmen.
