We decided to obtain a tree and make ornaments and toys to decorate it. The toys will be given to the children in the children's ward in the hospital, in which we plan to place the tree. The committee appointed for seeing to details are the president, Tom and Andrea Broman, Terry Knutson, Roger and Jeanne Wright. Our leader, Mrs. Wright, made some comments on our achievement programs, handed out calendars, and explained the activity of the Hazard Hunt. Each meeting one of our leaders will explain a different activity, some of which will be participated in by the entire club.

Some, as a matter of fact, cruise the highways rather deliberately and slowly in a search for safety, and in an effort to rescue stranded motorists. The Gear lords, for example, a teenage car club in California, could more aptly be named "Knights of the Good Turn," because its young members prowl the roads doing good deeds. In once such instance, a hugband braved the night to get medicine for his sick wife. On the way, his car broke down and he could not repair it. Members of the Gearlords came to the rescue and, while they couldn't fix the car, they did push it nine blocks to a garage. o Then they helped the man find an all-night drugstore. The relieved husband, medicine in hand, offered the youths some money, which they refused. Instead, they gave him a card, and said: "If you want to show your appreciation, tell your local police chief we helped you, and tell your friends not all teenagers are bad." t The card, bearing a picture of an armored knight, said: "You have been assisted by the Gearlords Car club, Altadena." According to California police, there are about 250 such clubs in the southern part of the state, with a total membership of about 4,000 teen-age boys. Each one is interested in improving the image of the teenage driver -- and constructively achieving that goal. Police say these young men "are a wonderful bunch of kids" who promote the idea of safe driving, assist other motorists in trouble, and organize such social activities as dances, DECEMBER 13, 1967 - PLAINDEALER - PG. 5 beach parties and car rallies. To which "Driver's Seat" can only add: "Let there be more clubs of this kind, stocked with the same kind of young men, bringing chivalry and the standards of King Arthur's court to the hazards of today's toads."
