PLAINDEALER PHOTO INTEGRATION OF DEAF CHILDREN IS DISCUSSED s- „• A meeting of the Deaf Chidof Lake and McHenry Countfes association oT Parents and friends was held recently at 4he Hainesville school on 120 and 134. Speakers far the evening were Robert VanDyke and Billy Greer, who are resource teachers for the deaf. They discussed the integration of the deaf children in a regular classroom of normal hearing children and what the roll of the resource teacher is. ' Some of the points brought out were that a child with a 60 to 70 decibel loss should be in a special program for the deaf before being integrated. They should be in this special program for ages 3,4,5 and 6 If they have had no pre-schooling, they have to be about 8 or 9 :rears old before they can be put into a normal classroom. A child has to have fairly good speech, lip reading and be able to communicate. They have to have a good personality makeup'^and be able to overcome rejection from other normal hearing children. The parents also have to help understand the problems and help support the child and have patience with him. ' Hie classroom teacher and deaf resource teacher have to work together. If the child is having problems in class the teacher tells the resource teacher and he, in turn, works owith the deaf child on these points. The program also has to be flexible in management to the child's need in order for him to function.

Admission to all) performances will be free, with seats on a first-come, first-served basis. [Written by Christian H. Moe, of the Southern Illinois University faculty, the drama is a fast moving, hard hitting history of the state. Drawn from documentary sources, the dialogue is written with lively wit and homespun humor: There are also moments of high suspense and haunting tragedy* Robert Mueller, a faulty associate of Moe, has arranged orchestral music for the prologue, plus some thirty American ballads to highlight the drama; and 250 slides lend visual verity. Directed by Archibald McLeod, chairman of S.I.U.'s drama department, the play, brilliantly written, ingeniously staged, and appropriately embellished by music, slides, stylized costumes, and hand props, offers to all interested parties a production worthy of the anniversary year. Decorating Tips for YOUR Home Does your room have a focal point? Maybe it is a particular chair design, an attractively upholstered sofa, a dramatic fireplace of a group of pictures. Every room should have a particular point of interest and it's up to you to dramatize it. The main requisite for a focal point is that it be dominant, large or interesting enough to make an immediate and lasting impression on whoever enters or sits in the room. In decorating a room, there' are four major elements which should be considered. They are walls, floor covering, draperies and upholstery or slipcover fabrics for furniture. In this regard, wall decoration can provide the connecting link which ties together the draperies and the floor coveringand at the same time it pro- •vides a background for the furnishings. ristmas To all our loyal customers, roiray peace, |®y, P?" cmfenfment ring out clearly fltsraugh your Christmas.
