Trauma Nurses Talk
Tough About Teenage
Auto Safety; Free
Emanuel Program
Pulls No Punches
One third o f teen traffic fatalities is
related to either poor judgem ent, inex­
perience, fast driving, failure to use seat
belts, or driving while under the influ­
ence o f alcohol. But because o f educa­
tion, seat belt laws and provisional li­
cense restrictions those numbers are
diminishing: traffic fatalities for teens
age 15-19 are down from 77 in 1990 to
54 in 1991.
Conversely, traffic fatalities for
adults age 30-45 have not changed in
the past tw o years. According to Joanne
Fairchild, Traum a O utreach Education
Coordinator and form er Life Flight
nurse, adult lack o f respect for traffic
laws often contributes to teen attitudes
toward traffic safety.
Fairchild, who pulls no punches in
driving home the message to all those
who feel they’ve earned the right to
drive, uses facts, figures, and disturbing
visuals to teach, “Traum a Nurses Talk
Tough To Parents and Teens,” held 7-

President-elect Bill Clinton is to
be heartily congratulated for making
such an ex cellen t choice, nam ing
Vernon Jordan to lead his transition
team. Vernon Jordan is a man for all
seasons. As president o f the National
Urban League, he led that leading civil
rights organization for years with dis­
tinction. He is presently a highly re­
spected partner with the prestigious
D.C. law firm Akin, Gump, Hauer &
Feld.
A man o f a high degree of intelli­
gence, common sense and integrity,
Jordan is also an cstute and knowledge­
able person who knows his way around
both in W ashington, D.C. and the na­
tional political arena. He possesses
extensive contacts in the legal and cor­
porate arenas and is very cognizant of
the great issues facing this country, both
foreign and domestic.
"1 have known Vernon Jordan for
many years and worked with him on
many tough issues and programs, said
Dr. Bcmjamin Hooks, executive direc-
tor/CEO o f the NAACP. "He is a real
champion o f human and civil rights. In
my judgm ent. President-elect Clinton
could have made no better selection to
his critically important transition team,
Hooks w ent on to say.
"We o f the NAACP look forward to
Prcsidcnt-clccl Clinton’s leading this
nation, which has been sorely beset by
problems, to a plateau of cooperation
and greatness. In Vernon Jordan s selec­
tion, we think Clinton has made an
important first move in that direction,
