The poll, containing twelve questions on issues of strong national concern, has been revised this year to provide space for both husbands and wives to indicate separate views. In discussing the questions included in the 1971 poll, Congressman McClory stated: "The issues before us are critical ones -- and the votes cast in Washington will touch each of us in some direct or indirect manner. I am counting on another over­ whelming response from the if residents of - the 12th Congressional District." Mr. McClory indicated that the tabulated results should be available by early May, and will be sent to all district news media. The 1971 poll is the fifth questionnaire sent out by the 12th district congressman, who was first elected to the Congress in 1962. Any voter not receiving a questionnaire may secure one by writing to Congressman Robert McClory, 426 Cannon House Office Building, Washington, D.C. 20515. The twelve questions posed in the 1971 poll are as follows: 1. Do you favor, in principle, the proposed Revenue-Sharing program to return federal tax funds to the states and com­ munities with a minimum of jji strings attached? 2. Do you feel that We should 5? abandon the research effort on $ the SST which was begun in $ 1965? „ 1 3. Do you favor the Family j|i Assistance plan, containing a ijj guaranteed income floor and % work incentives, to replaee the $ existing welfare system? 4. Do you support additional § federal legislation to define and j| control obscenity and por- Ij nography? 5. Do you feel that the 1 President's plan to consolidate |j and update executive depart- g ments and federal regulatory 1| agencies has merit? 1 6.

' Vocational Z) lie %Votxu Cli inic Mark's wife is faced with a universal problem, for the usual husband snorts angrily at open reproof or correction. All employers, and school teachers should also follow the strategy outlined below. This is the only fool-proof way to criticize, yet come off scot-free of ill will, that I have been able to devise in 40 years as an Applied Ps chologist! J / -George W. Crane, Ph. D., M ». \SE K-563: Mark T., aged 3f is a dynamic executive. He has become quite suc­ cessful in business but is rather domineering and dictatorial. "Dr. Crane," his devoted wife began, "there are many times when Mark is un­ diplomatic and even rude. "So he would be much more successful if he'd use a little better psychology. "But if I try to correct him, he gets angry and storms out of the room. "Yet my suggestions would often be very beneficial. "So how can one try to correct or criticize such a person without engendering his anger and ill will?" "SANDWICH" YOUR CRITICISMS The best psychological solution is to employ the "sandwich" method. Start out with a sincere compliment that bolsters the "victim's" ego and thus in­ flates his pride. Then smilingly lead into the "meaty" layer of the sandwich, which will offer correction reproof or criticism, by saying: "Honey, I wonder if it might not win more customers if you'd do so and so?" Then quickly fade out with another sincere compliment as the final layer of your psychological sandwich. This is the only deft way by which to administer reproof or correction without losing the other person's friendship and arousing his ire. For basically, nobody welcomes criticism, though many glibly claim they do! Mark's wife could thus begin by saying: (1) "Honey, you are such a dynamic salesman that you actually dominate prospects, even against their will it's remarkable! (2) "But (and smile ad­ miringly), I wonder if it wouldn't make them feel more important and thus more friendly to you if you^ti ask them for advice or suggestions, even though you already know far more than they do? (3) "For you are always so full of your subject and always have so many facts that you probably wouldn't gain any new ideas from them, but at least they'd feel more im­ portant by your deft use of psychology." Under this system, the man's ego is boosted at the outset. Even if the smile and deft "meaty" layer deflates his egotism slightly, that final compliment will zoom his ego once more. It is actually possible, by this sandwich method, to apply reproof or correction and even gain added prestige, instead of ill will! All star salesmen (and all wives) should be adept at use of this psychological sandwich method. It is also doubly helpful to school teachers, parents and all bosses, for correction and reproof are inevitably necessary. But it usually causes per­ manent ill will, ego deflation and often reprisals, to correct people, even in your private office or home. In my teaching of "Sales Psychology" at Northwestern university and George Washington university, I drilled my students heavily on this "sandwich" method, for it boosts your sales and also your social influence!

(Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper, en­ closing a long stamped, ad­ dressed envelope and 20 cents to cover typing and printing costs when you send for one of his booklets.) Whether or not laughter is healthful depends upon whom you are laughing at. Lots of people claim to be broad minded when they are just too lazy to form an opinion.

For the first time since the vocational work-study program has been in effect at McHenry high school, a combined banquet was held Monday evening, March 15, at the McHenry Country Club. The three divisions of this program included Health Car­ eers, Diversified and Office Occupations. The event was planned by the students, who invited their employers as guests for the evening in appreciation for the practical work experience provided for them in various fields. There were 152 in attendance. Students who participate in this program spend half the day in school study and the other half working.
