PAGE 16 - PLA1NDEALER-FH1DAY, JUNE 13, 1975 MENTAL HEALTH MATTERS Bertram S. Brown, M.D., Director National Institute of Mental Health T V COMMENTARY By John Smiley Jon Schlotman Co mm ended For Outstanding Duty Keeping Up The most notable trend in the mental health movement in re­ cent years has been the shifting of patients from the large State mental hospitals back to their home communities. The trend has been paralleled --and facilitated--throughout the country by the establishment of community mental health centers. This has created a tremendous need for trained professional personnel--including nurses. Mental health nursing has be­ come more important than ever in the expanded and diversified approach to our problems of mental illness and mental health. But the flow of new knowl­ edge and techniques is such that nurses need help in "keeping up." The National Institute of Mental Health--a component of the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare --supports a program of con­ tinuing education in mental health nursing. Nurses attend continuing edu­ cation programs ranging from 2 days to 2-week summer institutes or workshops. The programs are similar in purpose and content but vary according to area needs and resources. They are also open to social workers, counselors, teachers, and others who may need the "mental health content." Lay persons concerned with mental health matters in the community are welcomed. Some of the programs focus on nursing faculty in universities and community colleges. In thus "training the trainers," they achieve a multiplier effect in the dissemination of new knowledge and skills to reach more patients with improved nursing care. Even when not focused di­ rectly on nursing faculty, the continuing education programs always strive to develop leader­ ship and training capability. The aim is to create cadres of person­ nel capable of repeating t. e training activities. In this way the federally as­ sisted program helps State and local people get things going-- and helps them build capacity ROBERT REDFORD has s igned to do his f i rs t TV special , which wil l probably be aired ear ly in December.

Works of county students will be a feature of the McHenry Country Art Fair. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Don Neubauer has an­ nounced finalization and ac­ ceptance on the part of three judges for the 19th annual McHenry Country Art Fair. The judges will view the show Thursday, June 19, and will announce their decisions at the awards banquet at McHenry Country club that evening. The awards will be four firsts, four seconds, four thirds and four honorable mentions, with one Best of Show award of $100 from the McHenry Medical Group. A special artists preview of the show and critique at Parkland school will follow the dinner. One of the judges is Rick Fletcher, illustrator, and assistant to Chester Gould on his comic strip, "Dick Tracy". A self-taught artist, Mr. Fletcher has worked in the field under Carey Orr at the Chicago Tribune and collaborated with Athena Robbins in producing the award winning "The Old Glory Story" historical series. He is also a previous exhibitor in the McHenry Country Art Fair. Bob Skaggs, a contemporary artist, studied at the Art In­ stitute and abroad. He is now an associate professor of Painting at the Art Institute and his exhibits at the Chicagoland show have been award winning. Jim Schubert, a Chicago based advertising director and buyer, represents the cofn- mercial art field. Neubauer has taken much thought in selecting judges who cover as many media as possible, and who can look at art from three different views. This is essential to having a wide variety of opinions and a non-biased show. Hank Miller, photography division chairman, has arranged for three distinguished judges for the photo show, who will also critique following the dinner. Robert Effenger, Waukegan, graphics supervisor and printer, is one. James Bykowski, Crystal Lake, photography instructor at McHenry County college, is another. The third is Daniel Czubak, Chicago, a designer and assistant professor at the Art Institute at one time. He was educated at the Art In­ stitute and Leica school in Germany. He has traveled extensively and has a lengthy list of credits and awards. The public will be able to see the award winners and all of the fine features of the annual event sponsored by the auxiliary to McHenry hospital June 20, 21, and 22 at Parkland school in McHenry.
