Mileage Records For All Vehicles Are Being Sought Every automobile, bus or trtlek owner, when he registers hi:; ve- hicle for 1950, will be asked to provide county auditors wiLh in- formation on his 1949 travel on Washington's highways. He will be requested to report the nunt- bet of months he operated his re-: hicle during 1949; the miles that: vehicle traveled during those mon4.hs, and the average miles pet" gallon achieved in runnhtg that nflleagc. He will also be requested to re- porrt whether he kept regular rec- ords or estimated his nfiles t:'av- tied and miles pet' gallon.

SCHOOLBOY PATROL officers have the authority to regulate and control the flow of traffic when school buses are engaged in of- ficial schedules and when pedes- lrian traffic is waiting to cross intersections in school zones or designated areas. In the state of Washington last year 21 youngsters between 5 and 14 years of aCe were victims of traffic accidents and 1,002 chil- dren suffered painful and some- times pezmanent injuries as a re- sult of traffic accidents. "Many of thcse accidents," Pryde said, "have happened because motorists forgot to expect the unexpected while driving in residential areas, neat" play grounds, and in the vicinity of schools." IN ADDITION TO the danger of the pedestrian is the bicyclist. Children riding their bicycles be- come excited and erratic should unexpected circumstances develop. However, by exercising special vigilance and constant awareness of the bicyclist, motorists gradu- ally can reduce the nUmbei, of ac- cidents that yearly cause pain and discomfort to the youth.
