Traffic Accidents
If the word epidemic is taken
to mean "a wide-spread dis-
order seriously affecting the
lives and well-being of many
thousands of people", it is cor-
rectly applied to the increasing
number of traffic injuries and
fatalities, the Canadian Medi-
cal Association says.
In five years non-fatal traffic
casualties have increased 56 per
cent and fatal casualties 35 per
cent. If these figures were re-
lated to diptheria or smallpox,
the situation would be consider-
ed a national emergency.
There are many causes of
traffic accidents: careless driv-
ing, often combined with ale°,
hobo impairment; disregard of
the rules of ithe road; failure to
maintain one's car in proper
operating condition; failure to
make use of approved safety
devices such as safety belts and
head rests, and many others.
The C.M.A. assorts that if
every driver could be persuaded
to criticize his own driving per-
formance under these cate-
gories and then take the nec-
essary corrective action, a re-
duction in the number of seri-
.00s traffic accidents almost
certainly would result.
Indifference, immaturity and
lack of sense of personal re-
sponsibility, are invariably de-
monstrated by those individuals
Who drink to the point of im-
Time flies fast during summer
holidays and it won't be long
before it's back to school on Sep-
tember 6. The coming school
year takes us right into Canada's
Centennial celebrations and there
will be some special news this
fall for the five and a half million
children and teenagers attending
schools throughout the country.
School posters and classroom
posters will announce the news
in September that all public and
high school students from six to
18 years of age will be invited
to participate in the Centennial
Athletic Awards program. There
will be three "compulsory" events:
one minute speed sit-up, a 300
yard run, and a standing broad
jump. Participants in the awards
program will choose one addition-
al event out of three "optionals":
swimming, skating or cross-coun-
try run.
The Centennial Commission,
with the Centennial planners of
the provinces, decided on this
broad program for schools so
that all children in the country
would have the opportunity to
take an active part in the Cen-
tennial. (A separate program
along the same lines has been
approved for those attending
schools for the retarded children.)
The standards for every age,
six to 18, by which participants
will be judged in the compulsory
events are those developed by the
Canadian Association for Health
Physical Education and Recrea-
tion (CAHPER).
In the optional events the
swimming standards also are those
of CAHPER. For skating, the
Canadian Amateur Speed Skating
Association standards will be used.
No Canadian standards for a
cross country run have ever been
developed before so the Centen-
nial Commission has tested groups
of school children of various ages
in the Ottawa area and has set
up special ones for the 1967
program.
The department of education
in each province will be sending
out teachers' manuals to schools
pairment, then take to the high-
ways incapable of any thought
for the safety of others or of
themselves.
It is important that all dri-
vers recognize the rights of
others on the roads and high-
ways, and do all in their power
to prevent accidents. Otherwise,
the injury and death rate will
continue to mount and more
government control will be re-
quired. Mounting public protest
has brought revision of inade-
quate laws in the past, and it
will do so again.
The C.M.A. points out that
predision engineering in your
car can never compensate for
defective judgment in your
driving.

Employment For
Centralia Workers'
Under Discussion
A meeting between officials
of Canadian Forces Base Cen-
tralia and the Goderich Na-
tional Employment Service was
held on July 15 to discuss a
re-employment program for ci-
vilian personnel affected by the
closing of Canadian Forces
Base, Centralia.

for the beginning of fall term.
Teachers also will receive class
record sheets and each student
will receive a wallet size card
so that he can keep his score
during the Centennial athletic
events which may be run off
between Sept. 6, 1966 and De-
cember 31, 1967.
Gold, silver and bronze Cen-
tennial crests for achievement
will go to outstanding athletes
in the awards program. If a
student does not achieve standards
in athletic events to merit a gold,
silver or bronze award he will
receive a red crest (shown below)

CENTENNIAL COMMISSIONER
for participation and at least a
passing mark in all events.
The Commission and the prov-
inces, in planning the Centennial
Athletic Awards Program, select-
ed events that would require no
special athletic equipment and
that would be suitable for max-
imum participation. All adminis-
tration will be handled through
the provincial departments of
education. Teachers will conduct
the compulsory events but a
teacher may delegate anyone to
conduct optional events.
The planning of the program
has been done with sports direc-
tors of the provinces and ter-
ritories and various Canadian
sports organizations and with the
approval of all provinces and ter-
ritories plus the Department of
Indian Affairs, the Department
of National Defence (responsible
for Canadian schools overseas),
and the Department of Northern
Affairs (which administers schools
in the territories and Arctic
islands.)
So there is something special
to look forward to, on and after
September 6. I have been saying
all along that everybody can take
part in the Centennial celebra-
tions and the athletic awards pro-
gram is just one of the many
opportunities for school children
to be involved in Canada's birth-
day party.
