They have until Jan. 31, 1979, to file and avoid late payments. The ASC official said the support price for 1978 shorn wool marketings is $1.08 per pound and $1.64 per pound for * mohair. "Pulled wool will continue to be supported at a level comparable to the support price of shorn wool through payments orf unshorn lambs." Shorn wool" payments are based on a percentage of each producer's returns from sales. The percentage i&'the amount required to raise the national average price received by all producers for shorn wool in 1978 up to the support price of $1.08 a pound. In 1978; shorn wool prices are expected to average 75 to 80 cents a pound. BY JOSEPH COOLS 1 "" "s' staff psychologist'* . news from the Family Service and Mental Health Clinic of McHenry County. (Editor's note: This is another in a series of especially written articles for McHenry County readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community mental Health Center staff. This ar­ ticle is "Coping - Feeling 'Trapped'.") Feeling trapped, or caught in a situation in which there is seemingly no solution, is an experience in which everyone has been placed at one time or another in life. The experience is so universal, that behavioral psychologists have even set up experiments with animals and humans to determine how such a conflict is resolved. In the experiments, as in life, the person caught in tfie conflict that has no "solution" begins searching in a rather orderly fashion for a way out of the conflict. When no solution is readily evident, behavior becomes more erratic and irrational. Finally, instead pf searching for a solution, the person simply becomes frustrated, angry, nervous or depressed. Taking this situation out of the laboratory and into real life, one can think of hundreds of examples. A child being forced to eat broccoli knows that if he refuses to eat it he will be spanked and sent to bed. On the other hand, the broccoli tastes so awful it would almost be worth the spanking. He is caught Jn a conflict to which there is no solution. Consider the woman with four small children whose husband drinks a little too much, constantly berates her in public, and does not like* her to be gone too long to the store or talk on the phone. Living in this atmosphere may reach the point of being absolutely in­ tolerable. On the other hand, he has made it abundantly clear that in the event of a divorce, he would go to jail rather than pay child support. There is obviously no "good" solution to any of these double conflict situations-that is, situations in which the "trapped" person loses no matter what he or she does.

JANUARY 12. 197». monitor their traffic lacking in his-her duty. I have KRICSTAVKTKIC. Eric Staveteig of the Lincoln Cloverleafs 4-H club in McHenry is one of the many 4- H-ers in McHenry county striving for fast growing high quality cattle. Currently the U.S. is the object of world food experts, in criticism since farmers here feed grain to vtheir livestock. It is their contention that Americans should not eat as much meat They feel it is more efficient for humans to eat the grain as compared to feeding it to steers. * These experts also state that they feed more people per bushel of grain than Americans do. In an effort to increase efficiency, groups such as the 4- H are having weight gains of cattle measured. According to Dr. Burt Weichenthal, Beef Feedlot expert at the University of Illinois, American farmers have in­ creased their efficiency in pounds of grain required per pound of meat by 10-15 percent the past 10-12 years. Thus they are producftig more meat for less money already. , 4-H'ers learn much from the rate of gain because it helps them see how their steers gain. All steers are weighed at the Perseverance Lady Golf Novice (after tenth swipe of the ball)-- "Thank goodness, it's gone at last." - ! Caddie--"It isnv the ball that's gone, mis ^'s your wrist watch." conflict will attest, the only acceptable solution is to do what under ordinary cir­ cumstances would make the person happy. Thus, I would urge the little boy to refuse the broccoli, and the woman to divorce her husband. A con­ siderable amount of pain must be endured, but the end result is well worth the resolution of the conflict. Next: The Work-A-Holic.

When the McHenry County fair rolls around next summer, the same steers will be weighed again and the number of pounds gained will be determined. The total number of pounds gained will be divided by the number of days the steers were fed to determine how many pounds he gained each day. Many of the 4-H'ers will also participate in a new class called the "Premier Steer" class. The rate-of-gain steers will be slaughtered once their rate of gain is determined. The data from the carcass such as size of the rib cage muscle, fat thickness and carcass weight as well as the rate-of-gain will be used to determine which animal yields the most pounds of high quality meat. This winner combined with a high daily gtffFTwill be the winner?

What guidelines are they supposed to follow? "Midnight Bell" Oh boy! As many C.B.ers as are on the air. there will be that many opinions and all with good reasons for their opinion. Let's start first with what the F C.C. says: 1) F.C.C. defines children as anyone under 18 years of age. 2) Members of the immediate family living in one household may operate the C.B under the license of their parent. 3) The license holder is responsible for all tran­ smissions which are made bv the household, including transmissions which are .against the rules. Because the S license holder is responsible for all transmissions, the license holder should be certain that anyone operating under his-her license understands and obeys the rules. 4i Conversations with other C.B. stations must be no more than five (5) continuous minutes. At the end of your conversation, you. and the stations communicating with you, piust not transmit again for at least one (1) minute. 5) You must identify your C.B communications by your F.C.C.-assigned call sign at the end or beginning of each communication, in the English language Now. if the license holder would fulfill his-her obligation in the training of the children and consistently, there wouldn't be the numerous complaints heard. If courtesy was stressed, peace would be the result. If numbers 4 and 5 given above were commanded and enforced, harmony between children and adults just might happen. F.C.C. will not assign any channel for the private or exclusive use of any particular C.B. station, nor will they assign any channel for the private or exclusive use of C.B. stations transmitting single sideband or AM. Yet. I have heard children being shoved off to Channel 14. being told that 14 was the assigned children's channel I have heard ctyldren shoved off of Channel 36, being told it was exclusively for S.S B I have heard children shoved off of Channel 19. being told it was exclusively for adults. Yes, I have heard children abusing the channels, also. It all boils down to the parent, the trainer, the license holder; but if you find the parent Often had great success talking to the child myself - pointing out his-her error and why. They're human beings with feelings too. and adults sometimes forget this.
