Dongen, Carol Gross, Gabrielle Riddell wants more school bus safety Jack Riddell. Libedral MPP for Huron riding, has in- troduced a Private Member's Bill into , the Provincial Legislature which would ensure 'safer schoolbuses for Ontario's students. Mr. Riddell's Bill at- tacks the problem of schoolbus safety from 'two directions: safer buses, and safer schoolbus drivers. "Let's consider the facts", Mr. Riddell said. "In a schoolbus there are no seatbelts and there are no padded ar- mrests; passengers must often stand while the bus is in motion; and, most lethal of all, a steel bar runs across the top of each seatback at just the .right height to -mutilate the face and teeth of 'a child thrown for- ward' by a sudden stop or collision. Passenger cars are required by law to have seat= belts and padding to give crash protection but, by some bizarre reasoning, such safety precautions are not required by schoolbuses." Mr., Riddell's Bill would call -for the Government to set stan- dards for schoolbus construc- tion. He suggests that all schoolbuses in Ontario should meet CSA Standard D250 and also that automobile dash -type padding •should surround the passenger mating area to provide crash protection. Mr. Riddell further calls for more stringent and more frequent mechanical fitness inspections with supplementary random surprise spotchecks by Depart- ment of Transport inspectors. Mr. Riddell's Bill also calls' for higher standards for On- tario schoolbus drivers. The Department of Transportation is called on to investigate the police and driving records of an applicant for a schoolbus driver's licence before granting such a licence. Schoolbus drivers would also be required to take regular defensive driviing courses, WELCOME SERVICE emergency first-aid, training and a course in practical, basic child psychology so that the driver can effectively ad- minister discipline and main- tain order in his vehicle. "The requirements that I have outlined are not par- ticularly revolutionary," said Mr. Riddell. "They are only common sense and they are ab- solutely essential to protect those students who ride in schoolbuses. Every parent in Ontario shcould be requesting Government legislation for provision for interior occupant protection and uniform safety ;practices. Whose responsibility is schoolbus safety? T believe it is the Government's and I believe the time to enact legislation is now." world Nk• to call on you with hdl eewarm Ing gifts" and In- formation 'about your new locatlon. the Nesters will be glad to arrange 'yew eubicrip- .... tten Ie the llgnal-iter CII r et 124-7154 irwrs Wes Bradaock 526-1595 V.olmle.

Registration began at 8 A.M. when the contestants paid a 25c fee and divided up into sections to receive judging instructions. After that they were on their own, Gordon Papple, R R 5, Seaforth acted as announcer and- morning chairman. Livestock classes were: quar- terhorses, dairy cattle, beef cat- tle, swine, sheep, hog carcasses, and beef cuts. Field crops: corn seed, barley seed, .mixed hay, plus an identification class of weeds, feed stuffs, grains, wheat seeds and farm utensils. The judging of the various classes took place in the mor- ning and in the afternoon three sets of judges -took resl'°sons on the classes.
