The impression given renders of last night's Observer
that the band concert would be held that evening was due
to the fact that the reporter in telling of the program
failed to state which evening it would be given, no specific

SPEEDING IN TOWN.
j ; There have been numerous complaints by La Grande
(citizen:! against speedeis I'li'iniciitinn sheets south of the
.business district and entlnni'.ei injj children cross in; streets
,and playing nearby. The offenders are many if a stiiol
interpretation of the npt-ed law js made and the drivers who
jiot only get up to 12f miles an hour but to i55 and 45 are
all too numerous for the public's safety.
! ' Boys who drive cars are too easily afflicted with the!
Fjieed bug and too slow to appreciate the extreme dangeii
that fast driving produces in city streets, Some of themj
lire among the ofl'endcis. They aro not consciously . flirt
ii.g with minder, uf coinse, Iml they slionld be" Hie subject
vf severe warning-; hy parents who know the irresponsible
attitude that youth is often prone to take. They are not
alone guilty, however, as the complaints also include adults
who should lie devoted to the job of increasing public
j.afety lather than jcopai lii.iniv it.
; , 'Jinny bad inlcrsec.ions on the .streets leading up on the
I'iU' niake the matter more sei ions. If necessary, special
(police supervision can be put in the district, affected until
the streets become safe. Citi.tus who want lo see the
speeding eliminated ale loo .slow, e believe, to turn in
!pee,ifie. complaints to the police department, against, indi
v'dual drivers. If this is not effective, a written petition
from property holdeis requesting police ptotection from
Speeders will get action and cure the evil. As with anything
jclse, united effort is necessary to bring pioper emphasis
jto some violations and .secure collection. If a citizen n
juot" interested enough in his own or others' welfare '. i
Jthrow his influence in the light direction, such a lhing as
'.speeding on outlying streets of the city cannot be curbed
effectively.
