STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD EARL WALSH' So I Hear One of attending the pleasures of Petie Schaefer's birthday party was meeting Jake and Tillie Staff el, long time friends. Jake grew up in the home now occupied by George and Marie Larkin, Just a stone's throw from our Main and Third St. homestead. He and I are going to get together toon to talk about old times. When they operated a grocery store on Main St., Tillie used to deliver orders when she wasn't waiting on the trade. Reaching an advanced age, my mother used to have her groceries delivered. Somewhat to my chagrin, she used to ask Tillie to pick up items from the Wattles Drug Store across the street. One time she needed a coffee strainer from Althoff's Hardware. No problem. It came with the groceries. One time when Tillie was delivering an order at the Walter Carey residence, Rosemary left a note on the table asking her to put the cake in the refrigerator. It was too hot to put away when Rosemary left the house. There were other services, such as bringing a spool of thread to one lady. All services cheerfully given. No wonder everybody loved TUlie. Stories like the above could only happen in a small town. McHenry was small in those days, but hearts were large. Climbing stairs has been a physical problem for some years. I'll never make those long steps to heaven. If they doirt have an elevator when it is my time to travel, I'm sunk. One of our loyal readers. Lyle Turner, heard a man at the next table give the following toast: "My bifocals fit, My dentures are fine, My hearing aid works, But I DO miss my mind." - Lyle - also adds: "Amer ica ' s mos t outstanding public figure today is the national debt."

Because of their increased physical activity, athletes usually do require additional calories. When participating in sports, a teen boy may need up to 5,000 calories a day (normal requirement 2,700-2,800) and a teen girl up to 3,000 calories a day (nprmal requirement 2,100-2,220). But these extra calories should be taken from the Basic Four Food Groups (particularly from the bread and cereal group or carbohydrates) and not from candies and chips that are high in sugar, fat and-or salt. Some of these theories or misconceptions concern the following: 1. HIGH PROTEIN DIETS. Not only are these diets costly, they may also be harmful to your body. Muscle mass is not increased by additional protein, but by conditioning or exercise. The additional protein from these diets may cause kidney stress, lo6s of appetite, diarrhea and dehydration, which leads to less strength and, therefore, poorer athletic performances. 2. VITAMIN OR MINERAL SUPPLEMENTATION. This is not necessary if you eat well balanced meals and should never be a substitute for that. In fact, taking them in large doses could be harmful, particularly Vitamin A and C. Excessive or toxic amounts could cause hair loss, dizziness, and other complications. Prolonged, excessive doses of Vitamin C have even been known to cause kidney stones, diarrhea, heartburn, or gas. There is no substitute for the Basic Four Food Groups. 3. QUICK. DRASTIC WEIGHT REDUCTION, particularly with wrestlers to make a certain weight class. If a person loses 3 percent of their body weight within a short period of time, muscle tissue is used for energy and actual strength can be reduced. It may also permanently stunt growth and muscle development. 4. SALT TABLETS AND WATER RESTRICTION. Salt and water from the body are lost during strenuous, exercise. Low water intake before, during ana after leadsNy to dehydration which may cause fatigue, heat stroke and even death in extreme cases, (particularly in hot weather). Guzzling water is not recommended, but small amounts at a time, about 200 ml or a little less than one cup of a non-carbonated beverage, are recommended before, during and after a practice or game and will salt does ipidly, salt needs can easily be mei by the use of seasonings in foods 5. CARBOHYDRATE OR GLYCOGEN LOADING FOR ENDURANCE SPORTS. This is a very rigorous and strenuous practice that many professional, mature athletes have been practicing. Even for them, it is suggested that they only do it 2-3 times per year, but many high school athletes are practicing it weekly throughout the season of the sport. Carbohydrate loading works as follows: the athlete exercises to exhaustion and eats no high carbohydrate foods, thus depleting the reserve glycogen level in their cells is 2-3 times that of normal, which they think will increase their endurance span 2-3 times. $ Just from the sound of the drastic changes that take place within the body, you can see why it is not recommended for teen athletes, since their muscles and bodies may still be growing. And high school sports are not of sufficient duration to exhaust their normal levels of glycogen. The Best diet for an athlete to follow is the old Basic Four Food Groups, taking additional servings from the bread and cereal group for the increased number of calories needed. Milk Group - Four servings daily Meat Group - Two servings daily Fruit and Vegetable Group - Four servings with a citrus daily Grain Gtaup • Four servings daily (plus) Other tips for athletes include eating three hours before to digc ending food Easily digestible carbohydrates are suggested before an athletic event. an event to allow your body time to digest the meal and avoiding foods high in fat, since they take longer to digest.

Don't know if they came from St. Nick or St. Thomas. M Warriors To Dundee ° Coach Ken Ludwig will take his McHenry Warriors to Dundee tonight for a Fox Valley game. Paul Judson's Cardunals are down a bit from last year when they won the conference and also the regional. Judson has only one starter back from last year, 6'3" Scott Meyer, along with letterman Kurt Schuring, the Cards leading scorer. Rounding out the starting five are Bill Caubre, Jeff Killough and Blair Johnson. The Warriors will be looking to get back on the winn ing t r ack in the conference, a nice win over Fremd of Pa la t ine l a s t Saturday night shook off the effects of the Friday night disaster with Crown. The Warriors are 2 and 3 in conference play and 7 and 6 overall. The Cards are 3 and 2, with a 4 and 9 overall record. Dick Rabbitt YOU CRN BRNK it! Presorted by STATE BANK •» RICHMOND F.D.I.C. Q.
