More to come in the paper. The Convention was officially called to order by Kate Monroe, chairman of the food committee. She urged everyone to eat as much as they wished in order to gain strength for the arduous task ahead. After the “banquet” the guests adjourned to the Barn and witness- ed an outstanding performance presented by the members of the rhyming clues committee. The second presentation was much simpler than the first and the six teams made a mad dash to the door in order to start col- lecting the articles named in the clues. An hour or so later, they came straggling back with their inter- petation of the answers. There was much anguish over the fact that the answer to one of the clues was so easily found. The teams placed their articles on the stage which presented a most unusual appearance when piled high with everything from an ice cream freezer to galoshes. One team brought in a shot gun for no particular reason. The re- sults were carefully judged on the point system and there was a mild demonstration when it was an- nounced that the captain of the winning team was “Midge” Jeff- ers. She immediately announced that she had had absolutely no advance information from her sis- ter, the chairman of the clues committee, and that her teams’ victory was quite in order. Each captain was required to read the answer to one of the clues, and the winning answer received a round of applause. The convention was adjourned after the presentation of awards to the winning teams. JayShees To Meet At Thompson Home Thurs.

Hearing 89 to 120 traffic vio- lation cases a day, she qualifies as an expert on human behavior behind the wheel. In 1953, she heard 7,300 traffic cases. “It takes only a second of dis- traction on the part of the driver to cause a serious injury or death,” Judge Macelwane points out. “If a moving car is left un- guided, even for a second, a se- rious accident can result.” She cited the example of a tearful and trembling young mother who recently appeared in her court. The mother had made the common mistake of allowing her small child to stand on the front seat beside her. “As the driver of the car ahead signalled an. intention to turn left, the child diverted the moth- er’s attention for an instant— long enough for the car ahead to stop for oncoming traffic,” Judge Macelwane said. “The woman crashed into it, the child re- quired hospital treatment, and she was hailed into my court on a reckless driving charge.” Improving the driver’s knowl- edge and attitudes is more im- portant than punitive action in such cases, Judge Macelwane be- lieves. “Although women can rally SERVICE PERSONNEL ALWAYS WELCOME public support for enforcement and engineering advances, they can be even more effective in re- ducing accidents by focusing at- tention on more common dangers, like distraction,” she says. As one of the judges of the 1954 Carol Lane Awards for traf- fic safety, Judge Macelwane eall- ed upon American women, as in- dividuals and in club groups, to enter the award program before the June 30, 1954, closing date. Winners will receive a $1,000 de- fense bond and a bronze safety gaear.” The Carol Lane Awards, the nation’s only awards which rec- ognize the achievements of wom- en in the field of traffic safety, are administered by the National Safety Council through a grant from the Shell Oil Co.
