Phone 385-2081 p Hie Drivers Seat The American press has been coming in for its share of criticism, maybe more than its share. People complain that the oldfashioned, hard-hitting editor has become extinct. xThis comment is prompted by a case showing that the rumored death of crusading journalism is highly exaggerated. Robert G. Aldrich has been in the newspaper business for more than 17 years. Ever since 1963, he's been editor and publisher of the Addison "Advertiser," a weekly with a circulation of about 1,000, published in a small, upstate New York community. On a July day in 1964, a 35-year-old father, who lived in Addison, died when his car crashed into a jack-knifing semi-tTailer truck at a bridge over a railroad. Touched by the tragedy, Aldrich began to dig into the record of the overpass, which had a reputation as a danger spot in the community. It was well merited, the newspaperman found. Oyer the preceding four. years* accidents at the bridge had claimed, on average, one human life every 60 days. AMrich investigated and fburid: --A sharp S-curve on one side of the bridge, coupled with pavement that had a tendency to be slippery, often resulted ih trucks going out of control. --Drivers approaching from the other direction had their vision of the bridge obscured by a slight rise; this prevented them from seeing that another vehicle was out of control. --A center beam in the bridge, because of the angle of approach, looked much lower than it was, and clearance notices were posted right on the bridge; truckers often slammed oh their brakes suddenly because they- feared their loads were too high for the bridge. Aldrich. poured it on highway and railroad officials in scathing editorials and feature stories. He organized local merchants, who took out ads in the "Advertiser" to support his crusade. In an open letter to governm e n t o f f i c i a l s , A l d r i c h charged: "If accidents persist in the s a m e location...t h en there must be an accessory to the trime because the situation has been unchanged." The results: The troublesome beam was taken down, rumble pavements were installed, and oversize reflective signs warning of the special danger were posted, & along with advance warning of the clearance. Finally, the bridge has been surveyed for replacement. Since that death in July, 1964, and the taking of corrective action, Robert Aldrich has been honored by an award from his fellow publishers^ What's more important, there have been no fatalities -- in fact, no accidents -- at the bridge.

GOOD CITIZENS "Recently I had the privilege of joining a group of dedicated men at a Boy Scout Commissioners' conference at Camp Lowden. "The purpose of the conference was to share brainpower toward the development of an even more inviting and stimulating program in our Blackhawk Area council. Eight men took part from McHenry county-- the Kishwaukee District. I list them because you should know the kind of men that so many of the boys in the county look up to: Jean Uehla, Fox River Grove; Dayton Primrose, Algonquin; Len Heisler, Crystal Lake; Don McLatchie, Crystal Lake; Ward Ehredt, Wonder Lake; Ben Phelps, Woodstock; and Bud Schmidt, Harvard. "The conference, in this splendid Boy Scout Camp setting, lasted twenty-six hours. (I hope your boy may have the experience of „ camping there). It refreshed our memories of earlier boy camping and scouting experiences, and revitalized our wish to provide an even more stimulating Scout program in our own Kishwaukee district. "The pattern of healthy activity and broad horizens provided by Cub, Boy and Explorer Scouting, is bound to make better American men. I believe the program also makes better citizens of those men and women involved.
