Foresman, a Woodstock internist, was recently elected to the board of directors of the Illinois Heart association for a three-year term, it was announced by Mrs. Thomas Butler of Taylorville, chairman of th( board. Doctor Foresman, a graduate of the University of Illinois Medical school, has been active with the Heart association since 1971, when he became chairman of a steering committee to reorganize the McHenry County Heart association. He served as president of the reorganized group and was chairman of its Medical Advisory committee in 1973 74 He has also been active at the county level in program and fUnd raising Breed cattle for breeding stock on their ranch in Wisconsin. If registration is successful, and results of his personal tests and record-keeping are verified under commercial conditionsv the American Breed may be producing the carcass of the future. Appropriately named, the American Breed is a combination of several existing breeds, and one-eighth buffalo. Percentages may vary slightly but the general makeup of the remainder of the animal is one- half Brahman, one-quarter Charolais, one-sixteenth Durham and one-sixteenth Hereford. Tests show that his breed has c o l l e c t i v e i m m u n i t y individually inherent within each of the five contributing breeds, including the bison's natural immunity to cancer. Inherent hybrid vigor enables an American calf to scavenge on unfavorable range and yet reach 500 pounds at six months "of age. He claims his breed can gain 20 percent more weight on 33 percent less feed, attributing much of this to the buffalo's digestive system which enabled the wild animal to utilize feed more fully. A dense bone structure results in a larger dress-out percentage for the American Breed with less fat in proportion to meat. Limited tests show consumer acceptance of taste and quality is good. Other advantages claimed for the breed are increased fertility and easy calving, yielding 15 percent more calves; thicker hide and hair coat resulting in better istance to Mice, flies and arasites; thriftiness and gentleness found in no other eed; and hooves which enable easier negotiation of rugged terrain. As far as he knows, the American is the only breed in existence which incorporates bison with domestic cattle. The New Mexico cattleman now has his breed developed to where he feels it will be commercially acceptable. Until recently he has run into much resistance. Frequently he was not allowed to enter his animals in competitive shows and tests, so establishing his claims with scientific, unbiased proof has been difficult.

WORK FOR OLDER CHILDREN Work is not just good for the pocketbook, it's good for the soul - particularly of a pre- adolescent who needs to learn that he-she can take care of themselves in the world outside school Summer vacation is a long ten weeks that may be great for milking cows or reading books by the old mill stream, but it can be mighty hard on a city kid who has only goofing off to do A youngster who's put in a hard year at school can use a one or two week rest from the daily grind For the rest of the time, it is better to have a job Getting a summer job isn't easy and putting a reluctant teen into one may be even harder An unwilling teen-ager who balks at the idea of work may be resisting because he's scared The job world can be frightening for a youth who has no experience with the rigamarole of applications.' interviews, and references. The youngster who is really scared probably won't admit it, and he might not even recognize that fear is holding him back He might reason: if I don't try. I don't fail. (This is, by the way, a common problem in the classroom, too ) A parent need not carry his youngster into the interview, but he probably will need to provide reassurance and vital information - where to look, what to say, what to wear, etc This bolstering of the youngster's spirit done realistically old is not going to set the world on fire in his first job - he may just have to burn the trash work (the only Idnd most kids can get) or who denigrates the small amount of money the youth will earn will have a well- deserved hard time in convincing his child to take a job. It's normal for children to test parents with "sweet" snarls such as "I won't do it." This is a way children of all ages test to see how strongly parents really feel about what they are saying Children are hard, I know that, but this it the rale in this house, itus is wmi has to be done." When children We had a hand in thep&mntag of the rules, there's a stronger chance they will be able to accept the idea and practice of certain household raws. Sett a limited number of rules which are able to be enforced and followed is a necessary part of life at home, just as it is in the school room. THE LAW SERVES YOU YOUTH CAN- CHANGE THE LAW An historic movement is taking place today within and without the realm of the legal profession. For the first time, a major appeal is being made by most local and state bar associations to get our teen­ agers and young adults involved in helping to continue the strengths of our system of justice as well as initiate ideas and proposed laws which will improve the system's direct impact on the public, says the Illinois State Bar association. "Young America, Lead The j Way", was the theme this year for-Law Day, May 1, 1974 'The Illinois State Bar association is joining aH Qther local and state bar associations throughout the United States in urging youth to "Help Preserve Good Laws. Help Change Bad Laws, and Help Make Better Laws." A four-point educational program is being undertaken bv most bar associations to: 1) Convey to youth a deeper knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of the law and our legal process; 2) Examine and explore areas where the law has failed to provide equality of individual rights, especially for minority groups and alienated youth) 3) Provide a realistic conception of the potential for change within the legal process; 4) Encourage support of our legal system and institutions and to develop a desire to participate in the democratic process. The idea of any visit to a school by an attorney, says the Illinois State Bar association, is to attempt to give the student a better understanding of how the system of justice operates and to encourage the student to begin to take an active part in reforming laws which he or she feels are a detriment to society. Many of our great public figures became interested in the law at a young age. Without someone to give them that interest, they may not have become the social contributors that they are today. The' Illinois State Bar association says that a study of the legal process gives the student the knowledge in how he can actively participate in preserving good laws, changing bad laws and making better laws. The impulse to do good is worthwhile if the individual does good. FORMAL WEAR RENTAL for ALL OCCASIONS iksyt ....(it tfjwb/itMfi 1214 N.
