If this misfortune has ever be fallen you, you realize the precar ious predicament you have found yourself. However, many teen-agers and adults never consider the pedes trian, when they are comfortably seated in an automobile. An auto mobile is NOT a protector, nor a shield of armor. Statistics prove that you can be killed Just as easily inside a car, as you can when walking across a street, or along the road side. There are no, excuses for the great number of teen-age drivers being killed and seriously injured each year.

SENIOR WOODWORKING STUDENT Jerry Flocchini is shown in the above photograph with Mr. F. N. Scapple placing tli9 finishing touches on his hand-hewn cedar lined chest; This was not a special project and was completed in class with a few tidbits of information from Mr. Scapple, woodworking teacher at Klamath Union High School. The project required approxi mately nine weeks, and Jerry came into the shop during his study hall to complete it. The chest is constructed of hard maple on the exterior, and Tennessee red cedar on the interior. It will be stained a honey-maple. Jerry has studied woodworking four years, two as a wood working student, and two as shop foreman. Mr. Scapple commented on Jerry's undertaking, "He is a very apt student in this sort of work, and there is no doubt hjs future field of work will be related to a mechanical occupation. Jerry's motivation is to give the cedar chest to his girl friend." Mr. Scapple has taught along the mechanical line ten years in sub jects including mechanical drawing, woodworking, machine shop, architectural drawing, and auto mechanics.

The Klamath Union High stu dent body and faithful followers of the Pelicans are hearing these cries more and more as the bas ketball season progresses.
