CIlBtm "Wat Young People Think'
The Teen-Agers, and They'll Chance Being Weaklings
By EUGENE GILBERT
Remrch Co.
Hearing talk among adults that
scihkjI Djsi'S cost too much and
tend to make weaklings out of
.youngsters, wp Ihnuyht Knmi.hnrly
Ought to ask the youngsters their
own views on this. So we elected
ourselves.
' If our survey can be taken as
a popularity contest, the buses
Win. almost without a contest.
. While only a third of the 727
young people we talked to ride
the buses. 57 per cent felt that
ervice should be provided for
them. About 5 per cent assert
there is too much service, 46 per
cent think the service is about
4'ight, and nearly as many want
inore.
And white a great majority coll
ide they could use the exercise,
thev would still rather ride than
walk.
In olher words they're like their
fathers and mothers Ihey want to
4',vl there fast and easily, and to
icck with the consequences.
Our attention was concentrated
on teen-agers living so close to
jichool as to be ineligible for bus
service.
" "It's like having a party every
day before school," explained
.Marianne Levercnz, 15, of Chi

' His reputation a an Idea man
had grown up long before Ruml
thought of "pay-as-you-go" while
riding on a New York subway

"Public service isn't fast
enough," opined Elaine Bensi, 17,
of St. Louis, while Bctsi jean
I.indstrom, 17, . of Mcrchantvillc,
N.J., chimed in with "Transporta
tion is a necessity and should be
provided by educators."
Thty'd Rathir Drive
Host of the dissenters explained
that buses cost too much and, as
Marie Bogacki, 17, of St. Louis
said, "they raise the taxes." Stout
words came also from Nancy Wil
kins of Chicago; "Persons in their
teens should be able to take care
of themselves."
What most of the youngsters
seem really to be in love with
isn't the public school bus, how
ever, but their own means of mo
tor -transportation whether it
be the family car or their own
private jalopies.
Of course, the old folks to hear
them tell it used to walk five
miles to school through snow and
rain. And you can make sure most
of them don't let their offspring
forget.
Only a third of the young people
we talked to said they had been
spared such tales.
Actually, what with school
buses, public transportation and
private cars, few teenagers seem
to get to school these days on
their own two feet. Yet 80 per
cent of them tell us it would be
better for their health if they did.
Tax Plan Author,
War I started. lie became civilian
director of the Army's trade tests.
He worked with the Carnegie
Corp. of New York and flio Lama
Spelman Rockefeller Memorial Or
ganization after the war, and in
1931 became dean of the Social
Science Division at the University
of Chicago.

Sixteen per cent, assert, on the
olher hand, that it would be
worse.
So we asked the young people
just what they thought would be a
reasonable distance for young peo
ple to walk every day, and found
that 35 per cent think a mile isn't
too much for high school students.
They agreed the average dis
tance for primary school children
is a few blocks, and for grade
school and junior high school pu
pils, about one mile or a little
under.
The majority of teen-agers 67
per cent feel that money spent
on school buses is worthwhile.
Sara Smith, 16, of Griffin, Ga.,
said, "Bad weather often makes
walking impractical." And Susan
Moore, 17, of St. Louis, said, "Safe
transportation is necessary first."
Some Faar Costs
However, 30 per cent indicate
they are concerned at shortages in
other aspects of the school pro
gram. They felt school bus funds
would be better spent on teach
ers' salaries or new school build
ings and repairs. A few suggested
purchasing new textbooks would
be more beneficial.
Dick Gimlin, 15, of Buffalo,
N.Y., was one of those who said
money now spent on bus trans
portation might go for higher sal
aries "to overcome the teacher
shortage." and I'riscilla Anne
Beardsley Ruml,
When Macy's hired him as treas
urer jn 1934 to fill Ihe need for a
"stimulating mind," he said he
was earning his $70,000 salary by
sitting around and thinking.

who turned New Dealer, thought

Davis, 17, of Williamson, Ga., said,
"Bus drivers are overpaid in com
parison with teachers."
Our survey found that opposing
views on the subject might be
summed up by these two young
people:
Marlene Krowitz, 15, of Detroit
said' spending money on school
buses is worthwhile because "they
have to get the kids to school
first."
Betsi deRaesmcs. 13, of Noro
ton, Conn., said the money could
go for other school programs be
cause "transportation can be pro
vided from car pools but schools
and teachers can I.
