Ideas exchanged during the
Parent • Teacher Association
state convention held in Fort
Worth Iasi fall will benefit Bay-
town children.
Mrs. C J. Kingsmill followed
through on an idea that princi-
pal Herbert Zimmerman picked
up at the convention and be-
cause of their interest in safe
areas tor childreri to walk to
and from school a bright orange
and white sign has been design-
ed as a marker which children
will recognize immediately.
Called the "Helping Hands”
program, the idea is to have a
home in each block designated
for children who might be in-
jured, molested or ill on their
way to or from school.
The Helping Hand is a volun-
teer who Is usually at home
during the time children are go-
ing to and from sjhooi. The spe-
cial sign, a white hand on an
orange background, will be
placed in an obvious front win-
dow to indicate who the Helping
ands are. -
Mrs. Kingsmill said tills is a
sign which will catch the eye
immediately and children will
leant easily how to take
advantage of the adult who
able to help them If they need
help.
"We have heard of some po-
tentially dangerous situations
affecting children on their way
to or from school right here ir
Baytown,” Mrs. Kingsmill said
"This is Why we have initiated
the program at San Jacinto and
are assisting other schools with
the program.”
Parents are being informed
the program and asked to en-
courage their child to use the
program only if they are In real
The Baytown Police Depart-
ment has encouraged the PTA in
this project and offered their as-
sistance in setting up group
rules and being on call if need-
ed.
The, Helping Hand volunteers
are carefully chosen and given a
memographed list of rules for
safety of all parents. They also
have a list of ideas on what to
locator and what to do In case
c-f emergency

boihood will find the sign repre-
sents a barrier to his free feel-
ing which might lead to moles-
tation; stray animals can be re-
ported to the proper authori-
-y ties; proper safety precautions
In during a storm are available.
Helping Hands coordinator
consults with school principals
tor best locations and studies
the entire district thoroughly;
keeps a list of streets and block
. numbers; a list of persons who
01 would be good Helping Hands;
files lists with principals, Juve-
nile Division of Baytown Police
Department and PTA Council
president; Instructs vol'tfiteers;
distributes signs; checks volun-
teers at beginning of new school
term.
On the back of the sign a vol-
unteer will have the school tele-
phone number, the pr
name, and the police
ment telephone number.
Mrs. Kingsmill said between
400 and 500 homes are needed
in Baytown and that she will
be happy to meet with parents
who are interested in making
the project successful. She
stressed that volunteers can be
retired persons, grandmothers or
other interested persons. They
do not have to have children
or be PTA members.
"Our purpose is to* let the
children know they have a
friend In each block who really
cares,'’she said. -
Helping Mrs. Kingsmill set up
the program are Mrs. Charles
Wagnor and Mrs. J. P. Wallace.
The PTA Council accepted the
proposal this week fra: city-wide
use and all PTAs will be select-
ing volunteers.
