PAGE 8 - PLA1NDEALER - WEDNESDAY, MAY 1,1981 Lakemoor-Lilymoor Area Margaret Karas 385-4934 Two Attack Police Chief Lakemoor's Police Chief Richard Adornetto, while doing his duty to keep our area's streets safe, was brutally attacked by two men early Saturday Apr. 25. He is still home recuperating from a concussion and the severe damage done to his right hand. It is not known when he will be well enough to return to his job. The community hopes that the men responsible for this attack, Klusek and Nathan of East Dundee, will receive prompt punishment for their actions, and that the court will not be lenient in its judgem^ntr Thjp is a form of terroi^rsm and must be stopped. Our police officers are entrusted with our safety and we, in turn, must protect theirs. A shocked community. Police Chief Adornetto, wishes you a speedy recovery. POSSIBLE HEADLINE? Will there be a headline in the Plaindealer one day: "Youth killed on Lily Lake road while waiting for a schrol bus"? A week ago, a driver crested a small hill, and met the sheer terror of having five youngsters milling in the middle of the road with lunches and books beside them. A car was approaching from the op­ posite direction, and with not enough time to brake before the group, the driver drove on the shoulder until he could stop. The youngsters--Jhese were not grade school children -- yelled obscenities at the driver and used the same type gestures, and refused to move from the road center. v Our neighbor was so un­ nerved by this, that for days he envisioned five bodies splattered all over the road, because these persons were playing "chicken" with motorists, and he was unable to stop. Parents, adults, you must impress your children with the rules of the road. Streets are for vehicles, not for standing on while waiting for the school bus. Or your child might be the one in a headline, with the resulting heartache for you and the driver, and the loss of life or limb for your child. Do it now!

ABBMM.OCIST 'Incredible Hulk' Episode Places National Focus on Hearing, Speech An episode of the prime-time network television series "The Incredible Hulk" last month focused national attention as never before on the prob­ lems faced by a person with a hearing and speech problem. The segment was largely autobiogra­ phical for 1981 Better Hearing and Speech Month Chairman Lou Ferrigno who, in addition to his regular "Hulk" role, played a strongman with a hearing loss and speech problem. In a warm, human-interest scenario, the strongman revealed communication problems with family, friends, and society similarly faced by Lou in his lifelong battle with a childhood hearing loss and a re­ sulting speech impairment. Ferrigno's perfor­ mance helped generate greater public awareness of such problems and how they can be overcome. McHENRY HEARING AID CENTER 3937 W.
