Driver Improvement School Is
Reviewed by Interested Groups
About six months ago the
Medford municipal and Jack
son county district courts
started a driver improvement
school.
Since that time, 178 Jack
son county residents have
completed the four session
monthly school and have re
ceived certificates.
Whether the school was suc
cessful was one of the ques
tions discussed last week dur
ing a review session attended
by Medford city police officers
and Jackson county sheriff's
deputies who are instructors
for the school, District Judge
L. L. Sawyer and Municipal
Judge J. F. Fliegel, and oth
ers. Few Statistics
Few actual statistics re
garding individual driving
records of those who have at
tended the school are avail
able, it was pointed out, since
at least a year should pass
before such Information will
be compiled.
However, of those who at
tended the school, only three
persons have been cited into
court for traffic violations
since they completed the
course.
Judge Sawyer explained
that in such cases, he rec
ommends suspension of the
individual's operator's license
for periods ranging from 30
o 90 days. In other cases, the
maximum fine is assessed.
Student Reaction
The judges reported that
student reaction to the
school has continued favor
able. Some who have been or
dered to attend the school
have taken the time after com
pleting tile course to speak
in favnr of it to the judge.
Medford Police Capt. Clyde
Ficiilner, school supervisor,
and the judges commented
on widespread interest in the
school. With Hie exception
of Eugene, which recently
starter! a similar program
Medford is the only commu
nity to have such a school.
Captain Fichtner reported
that the traffic safety divi
sion of the state motor ve
hicle department has asked
about the school and is watch
ing its progress. Judge Flie
gel mentioned that city and
district judges expressed in
terest in the program at a
state meeting earlier this
year.
Volunteers May Attend
All interested persons may
attend the school, it was
stressed, and A number of
volunteers have attended the
school so far. While the num
brr of volunteers has drop
ped since the January ses
sions, law enforcement offi
cers and Ihc two courts rnn
tinue tn receive telephone
rails seeking information
ahiml i
The indues noted that some
persons who are cited m'n
rourt have a-ked In atlrnd
the school even before a tine
has been assessed.
Chief of Police Charles P.
Chnmplin felt that the school
is an important proiect. men
tioning that it is invaluable
as a public relations program
particularly with the young
er students netting to know
the police officers who in
struct the school.
Held on Tuesdays
The school is held each

with the first Tuesday in the
month and continues for four
