View Mock-Up Roo\ MnMnm&tOT I -L ' V< ? a.' Sh?h<' • -,*• The District 156 high school board, architectural representatives from Fridstein and Fitch, and members of the school administration viewed a mock-up classroom in the new McHenry high school west campus Tuesday evening. The mock-up consisted of a regular classroom located on the second floor of the structure with equipment placed essentially as it will be in the completed structure. The walls and ceilings were finished as the architect had planned, and the floor was painted a color similar to that of the carpeting to be installed. The purpose of the mock-up inspection was so that board members could get an idea of what a finished room will look like and could make some final decisions needed before the final stages of the building are completed.

Maybe not, but many parents unwittingly allow their children to face worse dangers by permitting them to drive after dark, which is two to'three times more dangerous than driving during thfe' day, according to the National Safety council. Night-driving instruction for high school students is receiv - ing more - if belated - attention from authorities. Yet only two schools thus far - in Keokuk, Iowa and Janesville, Wis., --are known to offer practical on-the-road experience to students at night. In Wisconsin, young male drivers of 17-18 and 19. represent 7.3 percent of the driving population. But they were involved in 16.5 percent of all fatal accidents, and more than 62 percent of those accidents occurred at night, according to Norman Gesteland, chairman of the driver education department at Janesville's senior high school. Janesville's eight-hour driver education course, which includes three hours of nighttime instruction, was started to "stem the fatalities among teen-agers at night", Gesteland said. Nighttime driver instruction at Janesville and Keokuk is similar, emphasizing safedriving procedures and nighttime hazards. In groups of four, Keokuk students are exposed to such hazards as dimly lit vehicles and cars pulling out of the parking lots of roadside taverns. Each student gets a turn at the wheel. After a critique of their performance, each student takes another turn at the wheel. " They are usually better the second tim e around," said Richard W. Jones, safety director of the Keokuk school system. Before venturing onto the road, the students are thoroughly trained in the operation of an auto and its lights. They also have learned the textbook approach to night driving, which is then put into practice over a variety of roads. The practical road course charted by Jones takes students over urban and rural roads that - for the sake of safety - are marked with, reflective signs and other reflective warning devices.

Unfortunately this question haunts many parents, turning bedtime into a battle of nerves. Actually, most children get the amount of sleep they require, changing their requirements according to age and stage of growth. The biggest problem is getting your child to sleep at night is a psychological one. Enforced bedtime regimens represent a negative act to many children - a banishment from the family circle. To avoid the psychological and even medical consequences this feeling <of rejection can bring, parents should: 1. Begin bedtime ritual slowly. Gradually reduce the tempo of evening activity to indicate that fun and games are over. 2. Permit your child his "bedtime ritual" whether it's a snack or one last trek around the house. 3. Leave a light on in his that many roads lack such signs which shine brightly in headlights at night. Let's hope the trend towards more nighttime instruction for young - and unskilled - drivers continues to grow. room if he wishes it. 4. Be sympathetic toward his night fears and bad dreams. If awakened by a bad dream, let him sleep with you for the rest of the night. 5. Make bedtime a happy time. Preparing for bed is a lot more fun if accompanied by a song or story from the parents. Your child's bedroom should be sleep-inducing, too, decorated in soft, restful colors, wellventilated and fairly cool at night -- about 60 degrees F. Single beds should be at least 39 inches wide and 75 inches long, with a smooth, medium-firm mattress and warm, lightweight covers. In many instances, a child feels more secure and restful if allowed to take a doll or stuffed animal to bed with him. With a firm but gentle parental hand, most children adjust to proper sleeping habits. If sleep remains a problem with your child, however, consult a physician. There may be an underlying medical or psychological disturbance that requires medical attention. GOING UP . . .
