young menlre taking in their training, which Is Primly n

Sthat in the time he has been at the center he has had no
semblance of trouble and has never had to admonish a stu
dent in any way. A veteran vocational teacher, he said that
this experience is the most enojoyable of any that he has had
because of the youths' desire to learn. .
Another introduced to the group was a man wi U 35e ars
experience with Ford Motor company, holder of a degree in
engineering an jor who came
from the Philco Corporation. He had been working at Condon
on the radar installation before going to Tongue Point
The Job Corpsmen spend eight hours per day in training.
They are required to spend eight hours per week sharing the
work detail, such as cooking, construction, sanitation, land
scaping, library work. There are recreation progams and phys
ical rehabilitation programs; avocational and exploratory
courses in arts and crafts, music, literature, drama, science
and others; there is additional training In communication
skills, largely on a remedial basis; and in general education.
Students conduct their own government
With present enrollment of some 700, it is expected that
the number of trainees will reach 1250 by November and the
teaching staff will total 240. Length of stay ranges from six
months to two years, depending upon the length of the course
and the rate of progress by the trainee. The automotive in
structor said that many calls are received from those seeking
employees, and some recently were started on the job as ap
prentices with two-thirds journeyman pay. -
Since the enrollment comes largely from young men who
have had little opportunity or who have for some reason could
not or did not complete high school, it is Inevitable that there
would be some problems.
Olds said that this is expected. Even in a short visit, though,
one can catch the reason for some of the staffs enthusiasm
the challenge of converting these young men into useful citi
zenship, equipped and able to do constructive vocational work,
with new Incentives and goals and a renewed self-respect.
At the same time, these energetic young men, many of
whose early experiences in life have been tough and trying,
will make contributions to society rather than possibly be
coming burdens upon it.
After this short glimpse at the new center it appears to us
that it is going to be a successful venture and that the tax
payers' dollars used in it will turn out to be a profitable in
vestment. Down With 'Road Rats'
With this issue, the Gazette-Times joins the Oregon Traf
fic Safety Commission and many other organizations through
out the state in an effort to promote improved driver perform
ance. Each week for the next six months we will publish a car
icature of a driver who has been dubbed the "Road Rat." And,
each week, we will publish a pointed explanation of the type
of traffic behavior that makes a "rat" out of an otherwise nice
guy. "
As the Commission points out: 'The Road Rat is a great
gUyon foot. He is just like any other average citizen; he's
nice to animals, pays his taxes with only an occasional grum
ble, and is a good husband and father. It's only in a car that
he personifies the petty, selfish, inconsiderate driving atti
tudes that result in the actions that produce traffic accidents."
Bad driving attitudes have long been recognized as the
root of the traffic accident problem. The problem has been to
get people to recognize that these attitudes exist not only in
"other drivers." but in each of us to some degree at various
times.
Hopefully, by pinpointing the boorish attitudes which re
sult in traffic violations that produce the traffic accidents, we
' shall all more quickly recognize ourselves as at least occasion
al "Road Rats." This accomplished, we will more readily reject
such behavior in the future. After all, who wants to be con
sidered a rat?
