Teen-Age Driving Classes Said No. 7 Safety Booster mmzts&nEuzr: ORDER YOUR-r- .r.r- SMOKED TURKEY FROM YOUR (?5)T)C LOCAL BUTCHER y $ h BRATTON PACKING Co. WASHINOTON. Dec. 13 Safe ty experts rate 'teen-age driver ed ucation as the No. 1 remedy for the nation's appalling toll of auto accidents e o m e 33.000 persons killed and 1.500.000 Injured annually. Norman Damon, vice president of the Automotive Safety foundation, regards the high school driver train ing program as "the most Impor tant single hope for better driver performance.'' Damon says "there has been more postwar progress In school driver training than In any other field of traffic accident prevention." Big Help Lou K. Rollind, president of the American Automobile assoclaUon, says "extension of driver training to every high school In America would go far toward solving the automobile safety problem.' Holland cites a survey tn Dela ware showing that untrained drivers were involved In about five times as many accidents as school-trained drivers. Some 400.000 students In 8000 pub lic high school partlciated In drl ver education during the 1948-1949 school year, according to reports to the national education association.

BASEMENT Driver Instruction started In the public schools In the early 1930's and has been expanding steadily. However, It reaches only about 10 to IS per cent of the boys and girls of an age for such training. There are about 34.000 high schools In this country. The number of high schools offering complete driver educa'Jon courses recently ranged from 13 In Maine to 600 In Illinois. Practice automobiles used in high schools throughout the coun try numbered more than 3100, most of them lent to the schools by au tomobile dealers. Systematic Instruction of young people Is rated the most promising ataack on the auto accident prob lem for two reasons: 1. The very large percentage of young drivers who are Involved In fatal accidents. 3. Education of the annual crop of would-be auto operators promises widespread Increase In accident avoidance In 'he years to come. Accident reports from 38 states In 194 showed that 31 per cent, nearly one In every three, of the drivers Involved In all fatal acci dents were under 1 years of age. One fourth of all auto Injuries oc cur In the driver-age bracket of 13 to 34 years. Educators recommend Uist the minimum total time for a complete program In driver education should be from 4s to 60 hours. This would average minimum time of six hours per student behind the wheel.
