engaging smile and iron handshake:
—‘When drivers see us they slow
up automatically out of sheer aston-
ishment . . . and that is still a daily
experience for those of us who have
been on the job 12 months.

“A serious problem for us recently
has been the many pedestrians who
will cross the intersection against the
traffic to shake our hand. An ava-
lanche of seasonal greetings from
drivers and pedestrians alike at
Christmas and New Year also pro-
vided many a happy handshake.”’

Because of their alternative job
of lecturing school children, a pleas-
ing and an attractive voice plays an
important part in the selection of
candidates, who are recruited from
the ranks of the 47 policewomen in
the New South Wales Police Force.

Many candidates have had more
than eight years service, while all
had worked on juvenile delinquency
cases and are experienced in handling
children. On top of this previous
experience, recruits do a three months
intensive training course before grad-
uating for duty, during which they

have special lectures in child psychol-
ogy, and voice production and varia-
tion from a University professor and
four other experts.

Training includes a _ thorough
knowledge of traffic laws and instruc-
tion in the job of driving home to
teachers, parents and children alike
the needs for safety first.

A thorough mastery of the New
South Wales Traffic Acts with abil-
ity to debate their finer points is fun-
damental, but to ensure that practice
is linked with theory, each recruit
in turn works single-handed every
major traffic point in the city area,
In this way all the women have over-
come any nervousness they may have
had at first.

For school work, they learn to
speak to children in simple language,
using blackboard drawings, pictures
and films to illustrate their message.

Having proved their worth on
point duty and in the classroom, Syd-
ney’s traffic policewomen have cer-
tainly earned their right to a per-
manent place in the New South
Wales Police Force.
