Page 2 ON THE LOOKOUT (Reprinted from "The Safe Driver',) It's a fine day and you are breeze= ing along without a care. Your mind may be somewhere else instead of on the street and your vehicle, As you pass a school, it occurs to you that it's very quiet there. You realize school is out now = so you figure you don!t have to be on the lookout for the kids at this spot, ' But a little way down the street a little girl is going over to a friend's home to play. She has made this trip many times before. Her mother always warns her to cross at the corner and to look both ways. But she's just a child, and her friend's home 4s right across the street in the middle of the block, Suddenly, something appears before you, something you didn't expect! You slam on the brakes, but it's too late to stop. -ad when you go over to her and see her lying there clutching her doll tightly as i? to protect it - then you realize that it's too late to say youlre sorry, or to voice the pathetic excuse that you didn't expect a child to run across the street. Ask yourself this question: Did I drive as carefully as I could today? Do I always drive carefully enough to avoid hitting a child that I don't expect to see suddenly run- ning across the street? 0-0-0 SOFTBALL NEWS semi-final Play-offs Series "A" - Results of recent games, Community Services ae Structural, Maintenance & Services 5 Structural, Maintenance and Services 26 Community Services 12 Structural, Maintenance and Services 22 Community Services 4 (Structural, Maintenance & Services take series 2 games to 1) Series NBM Pulp Conversion 10 Staff 4 Second game Friday, August 19th.
