WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22.11 Wonder Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 Student Runs Marathon Race Brian Thompson, a former Greenwood school student, son of Dick and Carol Thompson, recently took part in the Athens Open International Marathon race It follows the identical path taken by the athletes that competed in the first MaratHbn race of modern times, which was held during the 18% ..Olympic games. The starting line is near the Tomb of Marathon and the finish line is at the Olympic Stadium in Athens. Out of the 1300 who en­ tered, 900 of them finished, with 25 countries being represented. France took first with a time of 2 hrs. 34 min. Belgium was second, with the USA coming in third Brian did quite well finishing in 3 hrs 50 min The conditions were difficult for a runner, in that 20 miles of the course was uphill and the temperature was from 82 to 90 degrees. Among the USA entrants was a 22-man running team from Seattle, Wash. Brian took time off from his studies at the University of Chicago to attend the marathon. He is a second year Med. student and will start interning this coining June. Greenwood school is proud to be able to say he is one of their former students. There is usually some news of Brian mentioned in the school office frequently, because the Greenwood school secretary just hap­ pens to be Brian's mom, who is also very proud of him. WONDER WOODS " AUXILIARY The ladies of the Wonder Woods auxiliary were so pleased with the results of ffieir rummage, plant, and tpke sale the early part of October, they are already making plans for a repeat performance. Plants will be started soon to be ready for a sale in Spring. Nov. 12 will be the date for their next monthly meeting, in the home of Marge Evans. The ladies enjoy a luncheon together beginning at noon, which is followed by the business meeting at l p.m. All ladies from the sub­ division are cordially invited to attend. NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH Many areas of Wonder Lake have taken the advice of the McHenry County Sheriffs department and are organizing "Neighborhood Watch" groups. One such group is being formulated in the Village of Wonder Lake (Sunrise Ridge) area by Marlene Parquette Anyone from that area who would be interested in joining the group or would just like information on what is involved, could call Marlene at 728-0062. FISH THAT DIDN'T GET AWAY Many Fishermen long for the day when they pull in a prize catch. Some just dream and it never happens, but Cliff Spencer, an eleven- year-old from White Oaks Bay, had his dream come true. On a fishing trip to Algoma, Wis., with his dad, Len, and brother Jeff, he pulled in a 28 lb. King Salmon which was 99 inches long. Cliff was the only one out of the six in his group to bring in a fish in the twelve hours they spent fishing. His catch is in the process of being mounted and then I'm sure it will be displayed with pride. SPECIAL DAYS Happy birthday to Brian Etten, son of Jim and Mary Kay, who will be celebrating Oct. 23.

You may ba attracted to cartaln jaans bocauaa of a designer's name label or fancy stitching- Those features have little to do with quality and durability. Look for certain construc­ tion details and read the labels to find out fiber content and care. Cotton blended Jeans with 420 nylon will last longer. ROBERT MCJSIKflNTOW, Ph.D. psychologist for the Family Service and Community Mental Htalth Center for HcHanry County CONSUMER ^CHECKLIST (Editor's Note: This is another article in the Today's Psychology weekly series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers. The topic this week is "Overcoming the Need For Approval".) The desire to be loved and approved of by other people is a normal and natural part of being human. There is not a single person that I have ever met that did not get a good feeling when they believed that someone else thought highly of them. I have also never met a single person whose behavior, at least some of the time, was not motivated by the desire for recognition. While the desire for ap­ proval is natural and can lead to a healthy in­ volvement with other people, the belief that you need approval and must have it all the time from everyone around you, inevitably leads to tons of unnecessary pain and anxiety in your life. This belief leads you to alter your behavior to suit others rather than to suit yourself and make you a literal slave to the opinions of others. The reason that needing approval from everyone at all times is so destructive is that it is a goal which is impossible to obtain. No matter how well you behave or how good of a person you think you are, someone is going to disapprove of you. There is absolutely nothing yeu can do to get everyone to like you. Disapproval is a fact of life. While this at first might seem like a depressing thought, in reality it is quite liberating. For once vou realize that disapproval is inevitable, you will not feel so bad when it happens to you. Getting bent out of shape about it would be like getting upset about the fact that it rains sometimes or that sometimes the sky is cloudy. While you may not like those particular facts, it is unlikely that you become devastated when th«y occur. You just notice that they are occurring and leave it at that. Wouldn't it be nice if you could respond to disapproval in the same fashion? The choice is yours. Heavy An ounce of gold, about the size of a half dollar, can be •drawn into a fine wire SO miles long or hammered into a thin sheet 100 feet square. Gold is heavy, 19.3 times as hefty as water. A cubic foot of gold -- about as much as a big bucket­ ful -- weighs 1,210 pounds. W =31 § i i I S I I I 5 mum o C H +» SJ c. - X H •» « o ~ C.
