Bicycle lighting equipment ill be given close attention in the more rigid enforcement of thej)icycle ordinance by city po lice which will start in the near future, according to city police chief Charles P. Champlin. Champlin said, under the ordi nance, bicycles are required to have a light which can be seen at least 300 feet from the front of the bike. They also must have a reflector or light visible for at least 200 feet from the rear of the bicycle, according to the or dinance. The chief said bicycle riders should not make a habit to ride at night, even with lights, as the practice i3 highly dangerous. Car driver's vision is limited at night and riders are not always seen The officers will also check amount of enforcement is for the even if they do have lights on their bicycles, are correctly rid ing and are wearing light color ed clothing, he said. Will Check Signalling The enforcement campaign will also cover the proper use of hand signals by bicycle riders, he said. Riders are. required by state law to use the regulation hand signals when moving in traffic.

The licenses are required by the bicycle ordinance and cost only 25 cents. The license makes a bicycle easier to find if stolen or lost, according to the chief, who said frame numbers and a complete description of the bicycle are re corded in the police department files when the license is issued. Champlin said that if a bicycle is sold during the year, the new owner should come down to the station to change the name. No charge is made for the name change, he said. Purpose of the Increased safety of the riders, the chief said. He said the maximum fine if found guilty of violation of the ordinance could be $10 or impounding of the bicycle up to seven days. The chief indicated that bicycles would be impound ed rather than fines imposed. A speciak court is scheduled for ordinance violators, accord ing to municipal judge Noreen Kelly.
