They have to be strong signs. Weak signs kill motorists." Cheskin, talking about the % large green and white direc­ tional signs used on mo<&rn roads, added that this type of sign is both "optically and psy­ chologically favorable. Green communicates very effectively because it does not compete with the message. "Green is easy on the eyes and better than red or blue at night. Some people," Cheskin said, " have a phobia about red or blue. They may react strong­ ly and strangely to these col­ ors, but there are no phobias that 1 know of about green. In my opinion, green is a better color at night than red or blue Kevin Doran, Sue Vycital, Mike Smith and Jeff Joskins of Mc- Henry have been instrumental in planning for the March of Dimes Fourth Teen March Of Dimes Dance Planned Final preparations are being made this week for the fourth annual Teen-age March of Dimes Dance to be held Sun- teen dance to be held sir Sunday, Jan. 25, from 3 to Crystal Lake high school fieldhouse 9 p.m. PLAINDEALER PHOTO day, Jan. 25, from 3 to 9 p.m. in the Crystal Lake Community high school fieldhouse.

The most significant contribution made by TAPs was the campaign to get young people vaccinated. Their efforts to get teen-agers on the vaccination band wagon were as effective as they were imagin­ ative. "Don't Balk at Salk" and "Roll Up Your Sleeve, Steve" were the by-words and the teen- to-teen approach worked as nothing else had. Today, the prevention of birth defects is--an~even more chal­ lengingnission-one which will take the will and skill of many young people, working as full fledged partners with adult vol­ unteers. The TAP members of Mc- Henry county hope that the dance might top last year's success­ ful profit, keeping in mind that this money-making event is bringing aid to many who are less fortunate.

"At today's speed, when the average motorist, and those evsn less skilled, give little thought to traveling 60 or 70 miles per hour, traffic signs play an enormously important role in safe driving. Drivers must be able to recognize them quickly and absorb their mes­ sages in a hurry. "This is especially important at night, when there is less light and visibility is reduced to a minimum. "Most drivers can recognize and understand'messages rap­ idly on signs with green back­ grounds because they have ex­ cellent glance legibility -- less than one second according to many traffic engineers. "The brief time needed to absorb directions gives drivers more time to react, to get into the proper lane, to do the oth­ er things they must do while driving -- and these factors undoubtedly contribute to a re­ duction in accidents." Cheskin added messages that can be quickly absorbed tend to prevent people from stopping suddenly in a state of confusion --a major cause of rear-end accidents.
