14 The Family Council Editor's note: The Family Council consists of a Judgr, a phvrniatrlst, three rlercymen. three edttorf and a wtimrn'i editor. Kai-h arUcle Is a summary of a family dttaKreemeiit presented to the council. The Council dead with problems, major and minor, encountered by guidance counselors and social workers. Edited by by Mrs. Alma Denny (Copyright by General Fe.itures Corp.) Vera C. - He says the boat is for all of us, but he has the fun. Darryl C. - What better way is there than boating for sharing a good time? Vera C. - When I agreed to our buying a small motor boat it was because Darryl sold me on the matter of to getherness. He insisted there was no better way to hold the family together than through outings and trips on our own boat. This sounded just right, since we have two sons, aged 10 and 12, who are always rarin' to go somewhere and whom it's hard to keep up with. Well, you can't imagine the letdown. In actuality, Dar ryl's the only one who enjoys The Four Seas - that's the name - after us four C s.

The rest of us are Just the crew and in the way, most of the lime. I want Darryl to sell the thing and let's get a bunga low. Darryl C. - They're all just sulking because they can't perform my functions on the boat, and I won't assume theirs. We can have only one captain, at least at this point where Vera knows zero about navigation, and the children are too young for a license. But there's plenty they can do to make our trips interest ing for themselves. Vera needn't spend so much time below. Our meals needn't be so fancy.

I've invited them to help me write up our travel logs, to insert their own snapshots and impres sions. But no: Now they're sorry they didn't go to camp. I won't sell the boat. I'll keep on trying to sell the family on the superiority of a vacation afloat. The Council - The boats men of our acquaintance con fess, some of them sheepish ly, that Vera has a legitimate gripe. The craft most likely to succeed in giving every member of the family a feel ing of participation might be a sailboat, rather than a mo tor d riven yacht. With the latter, piloting and navigation are the main challenges and they're handled by one per son usually. The other, after the initial exhilaration of fresh air and foam fade away, must scare up things to do between yawns. Cooking Is no vacation for Vera just a little harder to do in tiny quarters. Re striction of movement for the boys Is nothing for them to look forward to. Darryl's best bet now is to 'fess up. Yes, he bought the boat (and paint rosy pictures) for his own sake. If money were extra plentiful, he'd go out on it alone and plan other kinds of outings for the whole family together. Or Vera could hop off to Europe wilh the girls, wniie llie fellers attend a dude ranch out West. But now they are all committed to watery vacations "en famillc" for the next few years, and it's up to Darryl to find ways to in clude them in the fun of it all. They're rebelling against go ing along merely to watch him have fun. The solution Is a matter of advance planning, with all views being listened lo and all tastes being considered. Naturally there can be no to getherness at the helm, any more than two people can drive the same automobile at the same time. The safety of the boat and passengers re quires Darryl's dedicated at tention. He shares that respon sibility with the Coast Guard. But he can regard Vera and the boys as assistant captains, or at least apprentices, and take every opportunity when The Four Seas lies at anchor, or In port, to increase their familiarity with the art of seamanship. His sons will then have the appetizing Incentive of knowing they may be able lo lake trips by themselves In a few years. Then, for Vera, the rnllfntr time might be reduced and the landings, more freouent. Overnight stopovers sound good, as does pitching camp on an interestine stretch r land. Beach picnics and clam. bakes may be added lo the Coming Attractions. Both go ing ana geumg there can be fun for all the C.'s.

A record 29 million bicy cles are on the roads today, he said. As road traffic Is likely to be at an all-time high, mo torists should be especially watchful of bicycle riders. Several rules were mention ed by Champlin for bicy clists. Among them were to observe all traffic regulations; keep to the right and ride sin gle file; and use headlight and tail light or reflector tor night riding. The night rirlcr should also wear light colored cloth ing, he noted. A workable horn or bell should be used, and the bicy cle should be in perfect work ing order. No passengers should be carried, especially those that would interfere wilh vision. Proper hand signals should be used, and I he rider should refrain from riding on side walks. Champlin said.
