TROUBLE BREWING (Editor's note: This is another in a series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers. Joseph Cools is a psychologist on the Family Service and Community Mental Health Center staff. This article is "Coping - Anger and Hostility".) "I get angry, you get hostile," is a kind of tongue in cheek comment on how it feels when someone else expresses anger, as com­ pared with how we express anger. No one likes to be on the receiving end of angry feelings, and it is a natural tendency to feel abused and defensive when someone unloads on us. If we can convince our­ selves that the other person is simply being "hostile", that is, unreasonable, in­ timidating, and unfair, we can easily discount the reasons for their anger, and feel justified in our position. It takes an exceptional amount of maturity and self awareness to give credence to the other person's anger and be supportive enough to really listen to their anger without counter attacking immediately. If having someone angry at you feels very un­ comfortable, you will more than likely go to some lengths to stop the other person from staying angry. Reacting with a "counter­ attack" is certainly not the answer, as that is destined to increase the conflict and escalate angry feelings. An immediate apology may stop the other person's anger, but it will usually leave you with a great deal of resentment and bit- terness: "Why do I always have to end up apologizing?" Listening to and really honestly trying to un­ derstand the other person's feelings of anger will not only diminish the anger but will also enable you to avoid hollow apologies for the "sake of peace". This kind of com­ munication must necessarily be a two-way street. To be able to listen and be sup­ portive to an angry person is not an easy thing to do and takes a great deal of prac­ tice. More important, the other person must be willing to try to give you the same con- Hallowaan We Have a Supply of Reflective Halloween Stick-Ons For Clothing for Your Little Ghosts & Goblins!

In turn, I expect that you will do the same for me when I am angry. If both people care for each other and are willing to try, communications of anger can be as important and as natural as com­ munications of love. Oc­ casionally, however, there are people who are either unwilling or unable to do this. But then, that is not really anger, that is hostility. Scott Seaborn, associate director of the Emergency Medical Service system heardquartered at McHenry hospital, has been honored by Community Unit School District 300 for his work in training 21 teachers to be CPR instructors. Seaborn was presented a plaque of appreciation recently by Ralph Buhrow, Distict 300 coordinator for health education, atv a meeting of the McHenry County Heart association. Seaborn is a member of the Illinois Heart association state faculty. When the CPR teacher- training program started last Fall, only one of District 300's teachers was certified. Now the district has 22 teachers who are giving CPR instruction to all fresh­ men beginning this year. The district covers high schools in Algonquin, Car- pentersville, Dundee, Gilberts, Hampshire and Sleepy Hollow. PAGE 5 - PLA1NQEALER - WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER It. IMP I SERVICE NEWS I Marine D.R. Walker In "Kernel Blitz" If of C Candy Days Slated For Weekend Marine Lance Cpl. Daniel R. Walker, son of Raymond and Aline Walker of 115 Rand road, McHenry, recently participated in exercise "Kernel Blitz." He is a member of the 2nd battalion, 7th Marines, based at Camp Pendleton, Calif. The exercise was con­ ducted to reinforce the a m p h i b i o u s l a n d i n g capabilities of the 5th Marine Amphibious brigade, of which his battalion is a part, across a simulated hostile shore. All phases of "Kernel Blitz" involved extensive coordination between Naval and marine corps units, especially in aviation, naval gunfire, communications and supply Simulated chemical warfare provided the units with the opportunity to exercise the capabilities of an am­ phibious landing force in a contaminated battle area Walker joined the Marine corps in January, 1978. MARK IT W BASKET Eggs Arc Best Buy In Protein Category Eggs are one of the best protein buys available in the supermarket today. Their low cost, good taste and high protein content make them the perfect basis for any meal -- breakfast, lunch or supper. Some people have asked whether yolks are lighter in color than they used to be. The yOlk color is almost completely dependent on the feed the hen eats. Birds that have access to grass, pasture, yellow corn or alfalfa in their diet tend to produce dark- colored yolks. The depth of color also varies. Generally brown-shelled eggs have a darker yolk color than eggs with white shells. However, the color of the yolk or the shell has nothing to do with the nutritive value of cooking characteristics of the egg- Large eggs must weigh 24 ounces per carton, compared to a minimum weight of 21 ounces for medium eggs and 18 ounces for small eggs. Orange-jacketed "Knights of Columbus Help Retarded Children" people will be blanketing intersections of nearly every city, town and hamlet across Illinois Friday and Saturday, Oct. 31-Nov. 1, in hopes of raising $800,000 in behalf of the mentally retarded. Each year the fund-raising effort, known to most people as K of C Candy days, receives greater public acceptance since nearly all the money, collected during the two-day drive is returned to the community where it was solicited. The K of C funds help underwrite the operating costs of local sheltered workshops, special schools and associations for the mentally retarded. For instance, councils in the eastern portion of the Rockford Diocese under the supervision of Bernard Montavon of Belvidere collected $37,014 in their communities during the Friday-Saturday solicitation last year. Members of Aurora council were the leading solicitors, collecting more than $5,050 from the candy sales. Volunteers from mentally retarded organizations, parents, and students from colleges and high schools will help (he Knights during their weekend drive. A portion of the K of C proceeds are allocated to the Illinois Special Olympics, Inc. to help defray the costs of their summer and winter games.
