After a years recess, Mr. Totzke returned to the Drivers Education program here at Linden. Mr. Johnson and him helped to bring order to a class in which order is quite often rare. Students took the class after school at either 2:30-4:00 p.m.. or at 4:00- 5:30 p.m., depending on whether or not they are involved in spring sports. The students had to either pass a 215 question exam with an 85% initially, or the same exam with a 70% several weeks later. In addi- tion, students had to pass a designated range, which included forward and backward weaving — and the various forms of parking. After these were passed the students were eligible for their road test, in which they must receive less than 15 points (various points are given for various penalties). Then, if they passed, the students received their permits and had to wait 30 days and or wait till their 16th birthday to receive their license. iWffl ftp 38 I 1.
