More than 150 boys were sworn in as School Patrol Officers, taking their oaths and joining the 600 other student officers in Tacoma. The Tacoma School District initiated the student safety program 20 years ago and since that time there have been about 10,000 patrol officers. View of boys standing on the Spanish Steps next to the Elks Temple after they took their oaths, Bob Hager (second row, right side) received a certificate of appreciation from the Automobile Association of Washington for 20 years of service to the patrol. The uniformed officer on the left is Don Davies, coordinator of the School Safety Patrol. (T. Times, 2/6/49, p. 28).
