St. Nicholas Avenuc| and Broadway join there. The routes of the Riverside Drive and St. Nich-| clas Avenue buses and the Broadway trolley cars cross 169th Street. The automobile traffic is heavy at all| times, particularly in the morning) hours, when children are going to} school, because, of the great number | of trucks laden’ with garden produce, which pass up from the downtown markets to the upper parts of Wash- ington Heights, the Riverdale sec- tion and Yonkers and bevond. “My heart is in my mouth almost every time I look out the window of my store,” said Paul Sanders, who runs a delicatessen at the corner, to an Evening World reporter. “Often, when thefe is no policeman on duty, I put on my coat and hat and go out and help children across the street. It 1s some job for a grownup to get across, at that. Other merchants in the neighborhood volunteer as escorts for the children when thera ts no po- iiceman on duty.” “There should be a stationary traf- fic post at the corner,” said James Reynolds, an architect, living at 169th | Street and Fort Washington Avenue. “It 1s a buster epot than many down- town and in Harlem, where traffic policemen are on duty all day.” Frank A, Schmidt, Principal of No. 169 School told The Evening World reporter that he has recelved no com- plaints from parents about poor traf- fic regulations, but he has assigned eight of the older boys of the achool to act as monitors on the corner and help the little boys and girls across, $< _—___> Rev.
