M0illard W. Petersan "shald- oWs" accident-proof profeýssiana drivers in a belicaptcr and thon uses a rfiavie camnera that liter- ally catches themn in the act ai keeping out ai trouble. Det'roit automative iirm.i-s and several insurance conmpanies are, studlyiag Mr. Petersan's visujal- system ai teaching safe driving by demnonstrating andi adopting1 proved techniques under aIl raad conditions as practiced success- iully by truck driveýrs andi bus ope-ra-tors with years aiunntr ruptpd saiety records. MrU, Petersan's teachingmeh od reverses the negative Madi - son Aveniuecamaata "scare", motarists into s a f e driving throughi bilîboards that depict lurid highway crashe,- and by such grim roadside reminders as,. simyulated tombstanes and dis- plays oft wreckecl cars. "If you want ta teach ifnyone how 'ta play golf, there's no bet- trway than watchiag saine pro like Samniy Snead teeý off and bit a perfect drive stralght lown th-- riiddlpe ai the fairway," argues Mr. Petersoýn. "Y a ul wouilt waste tinie t aklingi mujvies of soin. duifer slicing Off Inothe rough." TheQ Sari Francisco safety ex- pert contends that prof essionals4 -who have been driving for years without an accident aren't Just lucky. "'Very aiten," he says, te seem to ora te their trucks or buses instinctiveiy, and their niethocIs ai succes are flot osl t-ranriltted ta others in spite of the great amount af literature on the subjee.t." If saine Greyhound pilot, with a row oai safety imodals an bis jacket ca't explain what makes hlmi a safe, an-time driver, norý saie grizzled driver ai a m-on- strous bighway trailer rig wbo drives nighit anid day inla ah iacl af weather withaut even dentiing a number plate, Mr. Peterson says the next beý,st thing ta sit- ting behind the windshield wiftb hlým is ta shadow hlm fromn the air, The expert bas produiced a 12- minuite documentary film, corn- plete with calor and expasitary souad track, which gives view,ersq a bird,'s-eye idea ai an aid pro's effortless saiety rhythm tbroughi the evening city traffic rush ai-d the open interurban highw-a, writes Harlan Trott in thie Chri- tian Science Manitor.

In my expeýrieicco most pblishave four o r six sides, especiaily in fairily au airs, so- cial or oiýganiizat(Il.i activîties. Why? Because evo-ryone is s0 busy. 111 spite ai shorter work- iag haurs and a f ive-day wcek mort people have far leSs time ta take on exira work than they bad a few years ago. What is the reason-?

It is bard to find the rigihit answer b-ut T amn sure la many instances tiat have cam-e tarniy attention the paries unolvclare heading for trouble unless they somehow maniage ta curtail their activities.
