M R. AL MATH ES MR. AL MATHES explains paris of 'l'he car io Jim Tamplin and Joan Bush Driver Education Promotes HighwaySafety 'KPRACTICE MAKES PEREECTH, and that's just what the stu- dents taking the driving education course offered at Chamberlain do. Day in, and day out, the students are at itg starting, stop-ping, parking, and learning the fundamentals of safe driving on our miniature driving course uturnpikei' supplied with regulation traffic signs. When they're not in one of the three 195 9 Chevrolets, supplied by a local car-dealer, theyire in the classroom learning sportsman- like driving. Studying actual trafiic statistics brings the huge prob- lem of traffic deaths and accidents close to home, and aids the driving students in the realization that safe driving makes life driving. Stop! No, go! Turn here! Signal! These are but a few of the commands given by MR. AL MATHES, Driver Education instruc- tor to his students daily. In addition to teaching Drivers, Ed., Mr. Mathes fills his days sponsoring the Safety Council and acting as Business Manager of the Athletic Department. He received his B.A. degree at the University of North Carolina. Who has the right-of-Way at intersectionsP What is the maxi- mum highway speed at nightP These are a sample of the questions appearing on written tests which are given in Driver Education classes such as those taught by MR. ALBERT RIGGS. Mr. Riggs, who spends his spare time in sports like hunting and fishing, is also co-sponsor of the Safety Council. His Bachelor of Science degree was earned at East Tennessee State College. Variety is the Word to describe the activities of MR. JOHN T. MARSHALL.
