STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Do you have the potential to abuse a child? From studies of the 60,000 cases of child abuse reported in the United States each year, the following por­ trait of a child abuser emerges. It may surprise you. • More than 90 percent of child abusers are married, not divorced or single. -The "typical " child abuser is 26 years old. -Men are involved in 52 ^ percent of child abuse cases. But women murder babies five times as often as meh do. •Most child abusers are loners. They have few friends, and do not receive emotional support from their spouses, families or friends. •Usually, abusers pick on only one child, and the child is wanted, not born out of wedlock. •In 55 percent of the cases, abusers pick on male children. -In 50 percent of the cases, the abused child is under two years old. •More than 80 percent of the child abusers attend church. -Only eight percent of child abusers are alcoholics. In the American adult population, 14 percent are alcoholics. -Only two percent of the abusers have ever tried any illegal drug; some 12 percent of American adults have tried drugs. -More than 90 percent of child abusers are registered voters. •Many abusers were abused themselves as children. They do not see themselves as child abusers. -Many set unrealistic ex­ pectations for the child. -Most abusers abuse children who resemble themselves physically. Many doctors feel that child abuse may be a manifestation of self-hate, and when the child fails to live up to the abuser's expectations, the abuser reacts to his own sense of failure. - In 25 percent of the cases, the abuser abuses a child who has his own name.. In the general population, only four percent of the children have the same name as one of their parents. Many parents who abuse their children share the same feelings or problems. Here are some of the danger signals: 1. You often see your child's behavior as something planned to annoy you. 2. iYou can't ,discriminate between the right and the wrong place to hit your child. 3. You want to hurt, not discipline your child. 4. You have reoccuring pluses to harm your child.' 5. You have strong negative feelings about the child. 6. Your feelings about your child are not based on what he himself is like. 7. You dislike spending even short periods of time with your child. 8. You have been abused as a child. 9. You make important decisions without much forethought. 10. You have difficulty fin­ ding pleasure in any area of your life. 11. There are few, if any, .people you can reach out to in times of difficulty. 12. You have lost (through death or separation) someone very important to you.

Early darkness and heavy traffic call for more caution and less speed. V Bad manners can be fatal if they occur behind the wheel of a car. The discourteous driver who tries to get away with something in traffic, too often succeeds only in hurting himself and innocent victims. Traffic control begins at the wheel. Common courtesy pays off in safe driving. Extension Forecast For Holiday Produce Outlook Probation Violation Brings Re-Sentence Shoppers will find potatoes and onions in plentiful supply and very reasonable, says Sharon Hoerr, University of Illinois Extension food and nutrition specialist. Onions are especially good value and should remain so until supplies are depleted next spring. Midwest supplies of winter squash and root crops, such as carrotts and turnips, have dried up. These vegetables will be abvailable through the winter from California and southern states at stable and failrly reasonable prices. Winter squash, judged by price per serving, is a particularity good value for families who enjoy it, says Ms. Hoerr. Heavy harvest rains make seasonal sweet potatoes ex­ pensive. Good quality sweet potatoes are demanding premium prices. Tomatoes and lettuce are expensive now and the quality is poor. But better quality and greater supplies of lettuce are anticipated around the middle of December. * Cabbage, peppers and cucumbers are reasonable for this time of year. Good quality apples are still plentiful and good buys. But Washington apples are running smaller than last year, says Ms. Hoerr. Citrus fruits are appearing in stores now. Florida grapefruit are very reasonable for this early in the year. California navel oranges are available, but at higher prices than last year, prices are expected to decline during high citrus production months this winter. Although grapes are currently available at reasonable prices, they may not be available for Christmas. Rains hurt the fresh grape crop this year and what grapes there are will not store long. Banana t prices, though normally stable, have, been fluctuating this last year. Shoppers should not be sur­ prised to see low banana prices one week and high ones the next, concluded Ms. Hoerr. In a hearing before Judge Charles S. Parker in Circuit Court Nov. 14, Timothy J. Bryan, 7610 Beach road, Wonder Lake, was re­ sentenced for violation of a previous sentence of probation and was also given an identical concurrent sentence for a more recent conviction for burglary. Bryan was placed ofis eighteen months' probation with the first five months to be served in the county jail. He was ordered to pay court costs, make restitution of $47 and not to associate with persons who possess drugs. The hearing on Bryan in­ dicated that on Aug. 16,1976, he allegedly violated his probation on a charge of unlawful possession of cannabis ; on Aug. 31, 1977 with allegedly possessing PCP (angeldust) and LSA; and again on Oct. 4, 1977, with possession of PCP and cannabis. The burglary conviction was based on an incident in Wonder Lake where he was arrested during a breakin of a building. Committee favors manda­ tory retirement at 70.
