Perhaps you have thought

Ithat they must never try to
stop cars or direct vehicle
traffic in any way. Their job
is to stand on the sidewalk,
one step back from the curb,
and watch for a "long, safe
gap" in the traffic. When
there is a gap, they signal
to their schoolmates that it's
now safe to cross the street.
Most safety patrolmen are
elementary and junior high
school students. But there
are some high schoolers, too.
Some patrolmen serve on
school buses. When a bus
stops to take on or discharge
passengers, the patrolman
gets out, looks both ways to
make sure tht all traffic has
halted as required by law,
and then beckons to the chil
dren to cross the street.
Example is First Duty
Patrol members are told
repeatedly that their first
duty is to "set an example"
of safety for other children.
This means they are not sup
posed to "play hero" by dash-

taking unnecessary risks with
his own safety, in order to

prompt dismissal from patrol

Sometimes, however, cir
cumstances thrust a safety
patrolman into a situation
where the simple, clear-headed
performance of duty con
stitutes genuine heroism.
Last Oct. 16, Patrolman
Bobby Jones, 18, of Arena,

of a school bus, shepherding
