PAGE 16 - PLAIN DEALER - WEDNESDAY. MARCH 2.1983 the department would like to dispel Hie notion, "This is McHenry, it can't happen here."'

Thomas Wikman says of The Creation: "A poetic musical representation of the Genesis story of creation, embellished with the lyrical prose of 'Paradise Lost'... - con­ sidered Haydn's choral masterpiece." PROTECTION SEMINAR FOR RETAIL BUSINESS (Continued from page 1) because the copper doesn't know what to expect." The McHenry Police chief said the program would also point out what to look for in shoplifters - both the professional and the amateur. He said or may not live in McHenry, those in Waukegan and other locales know where McHenry is on the map. The March 16 program is designed to be a "self-help" type of presen­ tation for the McHenry area businessperson. BIRTHRIGHT- SERVING TROUBLED McHENRY WOMEN (Continued from page 1) statistics, Mrs. Gorski estimates that they receive about 300 calls per year and about one-third of the callers come in to talk. Some of the calls are out of curiosity as to what they do, she admitted, and they advise that they offer no medical information leading to abortions or birth control. Their purpose /is to offer emergency pregnancy service and to encourage good prenatal care. Mrs. Gorski notes also that several of the women have volunteered to counsel prospective parents of Downs syndrome children that there is a positive, loving side to parenting such children. Mrs. Gorski notes also that there is not a stereotypical pregnant teen. They are not necessarily the products of broken homes or have a history of abuse or neglect as the public might suspect. Callers come from varied backgrounds and they get the news about Birthright from word of mouth, ads in the telephone book and other sources. In seeking medical help, especially in McHenry county, Mrs. Gorski says that although doctors have indicated their willingness to participate, when Birthright actually contacts them with a case, their group is unable in most cases to get beyond the recep­ tionists, nurses, business offices,' etc., who shield doctors frdhi unwanted contacts. There have been exceptions, of course, she adds, and currently Birthright is hoping for the success of a grant-assisted prenatal program at Memorial hospital at Woodstock being proposed by Eileen Hanson, nursing director of the McHenry County Health department. Mrs. Gorski hopes that physicians will cooperate, although she understands their concerns about stepping into the risks of advanced pregnancies which have had no previous doctor contact. She says they have been able to secure reliable care at an institution in Burlington, Wis., for clients in this ^ area. Mrs. Hanson, in a very recent in­ terview, said that her office is progressing on the Prenatal program | and they are currently processing responses from physicians about their willingness to participate. She notes that the results of their preparatory work appears favorable to the establishment of this program. There are some things we can't help with, Mrs. Gorski concedes, and one of those is jobs. It is not easy for A pregnant woman to get work. But, she continued, the unique secret to Bir­ thright's success, first established in 1968 and in operation about six years in McHenry county) is its informality and approachability. The counselors understand that they are not delaing with things but with human beings. Mrs. Gorski said she and the others in Birthright are friends to the girls who come to them for help and hope that the girls view them in this light. This makes for a working relatifirl*- ship, she concluded. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) dreams or thoughts? You betcha. When you're on the receiving end of a summons and the asking price is in the millions, it's very easy for dreams to take on intimidating proportions. Have we ever considered com­ mitting suicide? Gosh no! The world is filled with a number of things that don't measure up. If we can't do something about them, we'd at least like to continue to talk about them via this column. /- That, in itself, should tel1 the Doc we're in there plugging. What else can he expect after being poked on all sides! KAF review layout FOR TRADE -FAIR (Continued from page 1) on the part of Ann Zeller, Ken Sheridan, Dick Nethaway, Rick Lane, and a few assistants with hammer, nails, and heads filled with ideas. It has developed into an exciting annual community event. It has increased in accommodations to exhibitors and to the public but has retained its personal approach to presenting the businesses. It has tremendously expanded its exhibitor list and exhibit scope but retained several of the original exhibitors. The Trade Fair is a wealth of information about many services, products, and conveniences that are available locally. It is an ideal family outing that reaps benefits not only in prizes and entertainment at the fair but also benefits the selection process of future daily or seasonal needs for services or products. For additional information about the Fair, call the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce at 385-4300. CONSERVATION MEETING The next regular meeting of the board of trustees of the McHenry County Conservation district will be held in the district office at 6512 Harts road, Ringwood, at 7 p.m. Mar. 3. Marengo Mayor Named In Theft SHAW MEDIA NEWS SERVICE James A. Cowan, Marengo mayor, surrendered Monday afternoon to the State's Attorney's office. A warrant for his arrest issued by the court Monday for the State's Attorney's office charges two criminal com­ plaints of felony thefts. Bond was set at $20,000 for a March 7 court appearance. Cowan posted bond,and was freed Monday. The complaints were signed by Chicago Eastern Corp. president, Milton Mickow. The warrant charges that from Oct. 15-22,1981, Cowan was involved in theft over $300 by gaining control of two grain bins. A second charge is made of theft over $300 by gaining control over two grain storage bins in 1982. The thefts were alleged to have occurred at the Chicago Eastern Marengo plant, where Cowan was a long time em­ ployee until his firing in October of 1982. The mayor has been under attack from the Marengo City Council since his dismissal. Some council members demanded a statement on the firing issue but Cowan said this involved his personal employment and didn't involve the City of Marengo.

A McHenry man, William L. Wyman, 5006 Parkview, McHenry, was arrested by McHenry County Sheriff's police following a traffic accident at the intersection of Ringwood and McCullom Lake roads last weekend. Wyman told county police he was driving north on Ringwood road at speeds exceeding 80 mph when he suddenly realized- there was a stop intersection ahead. He applied the brakes but the car skidded through the intersection and into a field on the northwest side of the intersection. Wyman then left the stene.
