(Staff Photo) TIE A YELLOW RIBBON ROUND — Alt"the children who participated in Saturday's bike rodeo were yellow ribbon winners. These two boys, Steven Henderson and Jack Renaud show each other their ribbons. The kids got the ribbons but did they get the message? The ribbon says, "Bicycle Safety Pays." won the intermediate boy's and girl's bike while Barry Campbell and Mary Jane Eisler won the safety award. Mary Jane Eisler juniorBik Bike. JuDnieoirekBcoyo'ospeanwdonGitrhres expressed the dilemma of the other bike winners when she asked a friend, "How are we supposed to get two bikes home.?" When Chief Cairns was asked why the prizes were bicicles, he said many of the kids have bicycles in poor shape and others might borrow them for the competition. All the contestants won yellow ribbons which held the motto, "Bicycle Safety Pays". Other prizes were also given out like tee-shirts with the words "Police Protection" on them. Some of the kids couldn't have looked more pleased with their new shirts which they put on immediately. Chief Cairns said some of the trophies are annual and the police hope to keep up bicycle instruction throughout the year. He said they hoped to get into some schools but because of lack of manpower they weren't able to do it. He said the police had stopped about 25 to 30 kids to warn them about riding safely. He said they had only taken a few names down because of the' time involved. Chief Cairns was enthusiastic about the program even prior to the rodeo when he said: "It's working fine. Kids are showing a great interest." He said when he has driven by the public school he sees the kids making their bike signals "so proper". ItiSaid he didn't, know if they did it when he wasn't around but it was rather amusing to see the little ones making all the right signals. Chief eairns' said he'll be ' giving the kids warning tags that will h ave to be signed by the parents. This is just to let the parents know what their kids are doing wrong, he said. Chief Cairns said he could charge Lhe kids and bring them to juvenile court if they continued to disregard the rules of the road but that would be bad public relations for the police. He said it would probably he more effective if the parents took the action by gro unding the child or prevent him from using his bike for a week.

The bicycle . rodeo was sponsored by the town police and the prizes donated by local businesses. Chief of Police, John Cairns, said the bicycle rodeo is just one activity in a continuous year-round attempt to teach kids the rules of the road. In the spring the police announced in the schools,, they would be stopping kids who,- disobeyed 'the rules of the road, he said. Their names could be taken and points deducted from their final scores if they joined the rodeo. The rodeo was opened to all Kindergarten&Elementary School children from Seaforth. In spite of the fact that Chief Cairns expected about 150 to ' participate and about 56 kids pre-registered, only 35 came to the Seaforth District High School parking lot for the rodeo. All the children had to answer a test on their knowledge of 'the rules of -the .road: There were separate questions for the junior class which included Kindergarten and Grade 1, 2, 3, Intermediate and Senior Class. Some of the questions' would even stumped adul ls such as "must a bicycle have a bell or a horn". This question • was asked of the juniors. The Intermediate class was asked if bicycles should be walked across busy roads as well as all the proper turn signals. The senior safety test looked as complicated as any written driver's -test. The practical test had six obstacle courses. One obstacle was trying to travel between tvvp straight lines. The second obstacle was travelling between lines in a figure eight. Susan Buist who was judging the figure eight said "it wasn't easy". She said the kids were having a lot oft touble with it for they would go too fast. Another obstacle required the contestants to weave between orange markers and another to use the correct hand signals. the winner Of the overall senior safety award, • a three-speed bicycle was Michele ,Lauzon. John Cairns won the senior safety award and DAve Ellis the senior boy's bike. There were two bicycles for each of the three classes. The Lauzon family did all right with Michele's brother Mitchell winning the intermediate safety award. Lloyd Eisler and WInta Tell guests all attended the important event.
