## COMMUNITY ACTION

We recommend that block units take it upon themselves to check on elderly residents regularly to make sure they are all right and are able to take proper precautions.

We also urge participation in the etching program which will begin next month. (See related story on page 5.)

We also recommend the instigation of a Block Home program for students. In this program one home on a block is indicated as a block home and any child who is in trouble may seek aid there.

Watch out for your neighbor. The best crime preventative we have is each other.

BE INVOLVED. WATCH YOUR BLOCK. Make it a habit to check frequently around the outside of your house and that of your neighbors.
