Civil Defense
For Montague
Montague - W. M. Van
Over, welfare director of Sis
kiyou county spoke on Civil
Defense at a Montague Par
ent Teacher association meet
ing in the Montague school
auditorium recently. Lester
Newton, Montague school
principal, explained what his
school and the community
were doing for preparedness.
Mr. Van Over explained
the general overall program
as he has been instructed by
the Civil Defense director,
He stated that, though this
county is seemingly a remote
area, no place would be iirv
munc from feeling the effects
of a nuclear attack.
The speaker described the
functions of the Military and
Civil Defense in relation to
lodging, food, clothing, reg
istration and social services.
He said that all able adults
would be pressed into service,
particularly the teachers who
would be needed for super
vision of children. "It is im
portant that people not think
of themselves, but how to
serve others," he stated. A
procurement manager would
issue all supplies. Congregate
care facilities and billeting
facilities would be designated,
for there is a possibility that
some 90,000 people would be
moved into Siskiyou county
in the event of an attack else
where. Cautioned
Mr. Van Over cautioned
that each family should keep
extra food supplies on hand
at all times and store liquids
in great quantities as a pre
cautionary means.
The pamphlets, "Fallout
Protection, What to Know and
Do About Nuclear Attack,
and a leaflet, "Civil Defense
Sheet No. 1, put out by
California Disaster office,
were passed out to the large
number in attendance.
Mr. Newton explained to
the parents that sometime in
the near future a practice
alert would be conducted in
the Montague school. It would
occur some time before 2
p.m., so that even the primary
grade children would benefit
from the practice, he said.
Working parents should
make provisions for an alter
nate home for their children
to go to in this event. Each
small group of younger chil
dren would be guided by at
least two from the upper
grades. Montague has been
divided into seven sections
for the purpose of quick ac
tion of evacuation.
Letters will be sent soon
to all parents so they will
know just what will take
place in an alert. Two series
of bus runs will be held for
the out-of-town children. Any
one having questions pertain
ing to alerts may call Mr.
Newton's office at the school.
Talent Show
The business session, con
ducted by William Frost,
president was concerned with
planning of a home talent
show "Hill Billy Hoedown"
to be presented in Montague
Subject

for the group for the year.
Mr. Newton also reported
on the Scholarship incorpor
ated meeting which he at
tended recently. It is the de
sire of this group to correlate
smaller funds to make larger
and substantial help to de
serving students graduating
from high school.
Mrs. Albert Widner, chair
man for clothes for needy
children, reported she had a
good supply of warm cloth
ing and stated that anyone
knowing of a need should
bring it to her attention.

San Francisco-ffiPD-A light
ing engineer says the metallic
click of a woman's high heels
are better off silenced for
her safety.
Gilbert Trosper, chief street
lighting engineer for Pacific
Gas and Electric company,
says women would be better
off with leather tips on their
shoe hc?ls.
"Those heels click so loud
ly that they're a giveaway to
any hidden marauder that a
woman is coming down the
street," he told the San Fran
cisco Women's Legislative
Council of the California
Federation of Women's clubs.
The club has started a
"Nighttime Safety for Wom
en" campaign.
Besides his suggestion on
leather heels, Trosper had
these tips for women walk
ing after darkness:
Travel in pairs whenever
possible.
Never stop or slow down
near darkened doorways.
bee that the doorway is
lighted when you get home,
and report any faulty street
lights to municipal authori
ties or the power company.
Note spots that are dark
and provide good hiding
places. Avoid them.
Walk in lighted areas.
Avoid walking near parked
cars, dark doorways, parks or
hedges.
When crossing streets at
night, carry a newspaper. It
reflects oncoming headlights
and warns the driver there is
a pedestrian crossing.
If anybody threatens or
attacks, scream. Noise is good
protection.
"Women drivers," Trosper
said, "should keep car doors
locked and windows partly
closed at night. If trouble
comes, blow the horn," Tros
per said.
