References. Call after 5pm 385-6633 2-18-2-23 A Car By Any Other Name What's an ipsometer? A trundler? A quadricycle? In a way, the answer is that each is a flight of fancy that crashed ignominously. For each is an early name for the automobile, a name that had a few serious advo­ cates, but which never really made it. As popular historian Philip Van Doren Stern explains it, although in the last decade of the llith Century the new mode of transportation was commonly called the horse­ less carriage, "even then peo­ ple realized that this impor­ tant new invention deserved something more popular as a name." He has compiled 28 unsuccessful tries to name the thing, including "motocycle," a name that in 1895 won a $500 prize given by the Chi­ cago Times-Herald for the best moniker for the vehicles. The inevitability of "auto­ mobile" is clear from Stern's list, since so many of the supfrestions included either the idea of mobility or the idea of automaticness. Anions the early tries: autocar, auto- cycle, automotor, autovic, gas- mobile, steamobile, pneumo- bile. Actually, "automobile" be­ came an almost universal appellation. A compilation of foreign names for the vehicle published in Motor magazine in 1911 showed that the pre­ vailing name in Germany, France, Spain, Russia, Swe­ den, Portugal, Italy, Den­ mark, Holland and Turkey was the local spelling that produced the sound "a-to-mo- bil." ••• Driver Receives Go-Ahead Then Ticket, After Crash Anthony R. Balchunas, 2102 N. Riverside drive, McHenry, was ticketed for failure to yield at an intersection following a two-car collision last week on Rt. 120. Neither Balchunas, nor the driver of the other car, Dennis F. Young, Lake Villa, was injured in the crash, which demolished the Balchunas car, and caused $1,000 damage to the other vehicle. Balchunas stated he was facing 4iorth on Court street at Rt. 120, waiting to proceed north. While waiting for traffic to clear, an eastbound vehicle in the outside lane, stopped and motioned for him to proceed. He added that he started coasting forward, and as he did so, he was looking toward traffic westbound. While he was facing north, he was struck by the Young car. He concluded by saying he did not see the Young vehicle prior to the crash. Young stated he was east- bound on Rt. 120 in the inside lane. He added that there was a pickup truck eastbound on Rt. 120 in the outside lane. As he started to pass the pickup truck the Balchunas car appeared in front of him. He applied his brakes, but could not avoid the impact because of approaching traffic. George Marcipan, 402 N. Timothy, McHenry, was ticketed for entering a stop intersection after allegedly causing an accident last week at the intersection of Green street and Clover. The driver of the other car involved, Robert K. Gehlaar, 1332 W. Bay road, McHenry, was not injured, although his car sustained more than $1,000 worth of damage. Also damaged in the crash was a Commonwealth Edison pole and light, and the front yard of a resident at 3601 W. Clover. Gehlaar stated he was south­ bound on Green street when he noticed a car starting to pull out of Clover, making a left turn onto Green street. He added that he pulled off to the right to avoid contact with the other car, and in doing so, struck the electric pole. Marcipan, contacted at home, said he made a left turn off Clover onto Green. After he made the turn, he noticed the car that was going south, go off the road to its right. He added that he kept going because he didn't know an accident occurred. Vernon G. Harris, 1709 N. North avenue, McHenry, was ticketed for an improper left turn following a two-car collision last week on Rt. 120. Neither Harris, nor the driver of the other vehicle, Robert Harwood, Crystal Lake, was injured in the crash, which caused more than $150 damage to each vehicle. Harwood stated he was eastbound on Rt. 120 in the , outside lane, and the Harris auto pulled out of Front Royal onto Rt. 120. He further stated that he applied his brakes, but couldn't avoid hitting the other vehicle. Harris said he was making a left turn onto Rt. 120. He saw the Harwood car approaching with its right turn signal on. Harris added that he assumed the car was going to turn right onto Front Royal, so he pulled out onto Rt. 120 and was struck. Harwood stated to the police officer that he had turned his right turn signal on because he was turning right on Crystal Lake road. Pamela S. Boyle, Woodstock, and a passenger in her car, Gail Behn, Woodstock, were both injured Friday night in a two-car accident on Rt. 120. The driver of the second vehicle,' David Walsh, 4615 Bonner, McHenry, was not injured, but was ticketed for failure to yield to oncoming traffic. The crash caused more than $100 damage to each car. Ms. Boyle stated she was westbound on Rt. 120 when she observed the Walsh car make a left turn into her path. She added that she applied her brakes, and attempted to move to the left in an un­ successful attempt to avoid a collision. Walsh stated he was stopped in the left eastbound lane on Rt. 120, and was trying to see around another vehicle turning left from the left oncoming lane. He further said he didn't see the other car until it was too late to avoid the collision. James J. Michels, 2111 Woodlawn Park drive, McHenry, was transported by the Johnsburg Rescue squad to McHenry hospital for treat­ ment of injuries sustained in a one-car crash Wednesday morning at the intersection of Bay road and Chapel Hill road Michels was also ticketed in connection with the accident for disobeying a stop sign His car was demolished, and also damaged was one Com­ monwealth Edison utility pole and one roadway warning sign. Michels stated he was westbound on Bay road when he failed to stop at the in­ tersection of Chapel Hill road. He added that he went across Chapel Hill road, then off the west road shoulder, first striking the highway warning sign, and then the utility pole. According to the police report, skid marks at the scene, indicated the driver tried to stop at the T-type intersection, but could not. Robert H. Schaak, Crystal Lake, was injured Tuesday night in a two-vehicle accident at the intersection of Walkup road and Hillside road. No ticket was issued to either Schaak or the other driver, Gary J. Kline, 2720 Myang avenue, McHenry in the ac­ cident which causedTfiore than $100 damage to the Kline auto. Kline stated he Was nor­ thbound on Walkup road and when he came over the hill, he saw the Schaak truck stopped, preparing to turn. He added that he also saw the police officer's car with the red lights on, and as he applied his brakes, he slid and struck the truck. Schaak stated he was on Walkup road northbound, preparing to turn west onto Hillside road, when he saw Kline come over the hill and strike him. The officer said he observed the truck stopped with his turn signal on. He added that the Kline vehicle came over the hill and locked up his brakes, skidding into the truck. Raymond L. Dietschweiler, 5016 Rt. 173, Richmond, was injured Tuesday, 1 in a two- vehicle accident at the in­ tersection of Rt. 173 and Wilmot road. Neither Dietschweiler, nor the driver of the second car, Patricia A. Schreiber, Antioch, was ticketed. The accident caused $1,200 damage to the woman's car, and demolished the other vehicle. Ms. Schreiber stated she was eastbound on Rt. 173 at ap­ proximately 50 mph when she observed a vehicle pull in front of her, southbound orf Wilmot road. She added that she applied her brakes, but was unable to avoid striking the right side of the other car. Dietschweiler stated he had stopped at the stop sign on Wilmot road at Rt. 173, and looked both ways. He added that he didn't see any vehicles on Rt. 173, so he continued south and was struck by the Schreiber car. According to the police report, Dietschweiler failed to yield at a stop intersection, but the officer was unable to determine how the right rear of his vehicle was damaged as a result of the accident. Daniel J. Cooper, 5102 Barnard Mill road, Ringwood, escaped injury Sunday mor­ ning, following a one-car crash on River road. Cooper was not ticketed for the accident, which caused $100 damage to his car, and also damaged a warning sign post on River road. The driver stated he was southbound on River road at approximately 40 mph when he observed a vehicle in his lane of traffic coming northbound. He further stated he moved over to avoid striking it, and hit the sign post. John R. Schey, 817 Mill street, McHenry, was ticketed for driving too fast for conditions following a one-car accident Friday night at the intersection of South street and Callista street. Schey was not injured in the crash, which demolished his vehicle. The driver stated he was northbound on South street at approximately 30 mph He added that he either hit some snow or ice, and lost control of his vehicle and started skidding. A McHenry area juvenile was ticketed for having no valid driver's license, and also for leaving the scene of a vehicle- damage accident, following a two-car collision Friday night on Rt. 120. The driver of the other vehicle Sister Corinone, 1407 N Ricmnond road, McHenry, was not injured in the crash, which caused less than $100 damage to her car. The juvenile, likewise, was not hurt, and the car he was driving also sustained less than $100 worth of damage. Sister Corinone stated whe was westbound on'Rt. 120 and making a right turn into the Jewel parking lot when the other vehicle struck her car in the rear. She added that the offender then drove off ^west­ bound on Rt. 120. The juvenile told police later that he was westbound on Rt. 120 and that the other vehicle was turning right into Jewel's lot. He added that he applied his brakes, but that the first car made a sudden stop halfway into the parking lot, and he couldn't avoid striking the car in the rear. He also stated that he became frightened and drove off without stopping. Two drivers were ticketed, and there were no injuries reported, following a three-car pile-up last week at the in­ tersection of Rt. 120 and Front street. Loren W. Klapperich, 3821, N. Hillcrest, McHenry, was ticketed for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, and David A. Mackay, 7210 Salem road. Wonder Lake, was ticketed for failure to yield to oncoming traffic following the crash, which caused more than $100 damage to each of the three cars involved. / The driver of the third vehicle, Michael J. Wieser, 1402 Millstream, McHenry, stated he was stopped at the light on Front street, and that he ob- ' served both of the other cars approaching each other on Rt. 120. He added that the light turned yellow with both units a good distance from the in­ tersection. He concluded by saying that the MacKay car . turned in front of the Klap­ perich vehicle, and was struck, forcing MacKay's car to rebound and strike his vehicle. Wileen Sluga, 1601 Lakeview, McHenry, was injured last week, when she collided with a signal light post on Rt. 120 and Rt 31, while attempting to avoid contact with another vehicle. The driver of the other vehicle, George F. Anderson, 920 Wiltshire drive, McHenry, was ticketed after allegedly turning improperly, and for­ cing the accident. Anderson stated he was making a lefthand turn on Front street from Rt. 120 when he saw the Sluga car veer to the right. He added that he didn't see the car strike the signal post. Ms. Sluga stated she was westbound on Rt. 120, anJ upon reaching the intersection of Rt. 120 and Front street, she had the green light She further stated that upon reaching the middle of the intersection, the front end of the Anderson car suddenly appeared. Ms. Sluga added that she turned the wheel to the right to avoid a crash, and because of \ the wet pavement, started sliding toward the signal light post. She concluded by saying she tried to avoid hitting the post by correcting the wheel, but couldn't stop in time. UNDERSTANDING MENTAL HEALTH a health column from the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare When Children Can't Read-- Part I Child mental health experts agree that there are several possible reasons why some children who are of normal intelligence cannot learn to read. Researchers who have stud­ ied these disorders think that some inherited factor is prob­ ably the most frequent cause. Complications and infections before and after the child *was born may also be causes. Still other factors that might contribute to learning disord­ ers are inadequate teaching, defects in the senses, emo­ tional problems, and the com­ plexity of language itself. ysV,*/ ... (*'» i ».»-#\. jt, | v important to remember that the child is not at fault. What is happening to him (and it is usually boys rather than girls who are affected) is probably some lag in the process of maturing. The child's nervous system simply has not reached the point where it enables him to learn to read. Experts on how children de­ velop say that there are very definite stages in the growth of the ability to learn. For example, a 3-year-old can generally draw a circle when shown one; a 5-year-old, a square; a 6-year-old, a tri­ angle. The ability to copy a tri­ angle has nothing to do with reading skill, in itself. But the investigators have found that the lack of this ability and other seemingly unrelated abilities in a school-age child indicates that something has gone wrong. Either the nerv­ ous system is slow in devel­ oping, or it may have been damaged. There may well be com­ plicating factors--for ex­ ample, the attitude of the parents or the quality of the teaching. One study found that 23 percent of the chil­ dren in classes taught by ade­ quate teachers (as rated by their principals) failed in read­ ing. Of the children in classes taught by poor teachers, 49 percent failed.
