If You're Courteous, You Can Live COURTESY on the highways and byways is the key to safety, Central students of Driver Education learn. The course, required of every- one before he graduates, is a valuable start in the right direction. Every driver is a potential killer-because he is driving what too often is a lethal weapon.

Instructor Spoerner does next best, schooling his students in all the road rules and with sometimes start- ling pictures and stories giving them a proper respect for the handling of the modern car. SAFETY measures can help you reach voting age, Driver Training Instructor Harold Spoerner advises Karen Davy, Jan Shaw, and Cheryl Shaf- fer as they study how cars can collide at an intersection. Course includes a number of scare movies of accidents.

World travelers see that people are real, not just statistics. They learn also that opportuni- ties common in America too often are unknown in other lands. Knowledge erases darkness and thus diminishes the threat of world conflict. ELECTRONICS absorbs the interest of boys like Bill Clay and Bob Jarrett, who know more about short-wave radios and transistors than most people know about their own politics. Boys in the electronics classes are radio hams and junior type inventors of tomorrow's new wonders. 23?
