hearing is CONTINUED FOR MRS. COSTIGAN (Continued from page 1) , City ana county authorities arrived at the home after receiving a phone call that Donald Costigan, 44, had been shot.

MUSIN" N' MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) school's contribution is mainly in the use of facilities, its printing machine and the time of its personnel in directing activities. Purpose of the project is to assist Senior Citizen groups in organizing programs and giving financial backing through the first, critical years. After this time, government feels such S.C. organizations should become self-sustaining. Through these first years we have been impressed by the enthusiasm of the McHenry group, certainly one of the most active in this part of the state. We have little doubt that the keen interest expressed by the local club's members will assure a strong program continuing in the years ahead. The club visits nursing homes, has purchased wheel chairs for them, engages in community service in other ways and provides a wide variety of entertainment for members. ACTRESS IN THE MAKING (Continued from page 1) danced such classics as "Carmen", "Swan Lake", etc. One Swedish critic had this to say of her: "Judy (Conway) Svalander is coming up in the world of theatre not only as the fine professional dancer we've always known her to be but now also as a coming young ac­ tress". Her husband, John Svalander, stage manager for the Swedish National Touring theatre, is with his wife on the summer trip to this country. Judy's mother is Mrs. H. Braidwood of McHenry. Her father is the late Robert J. Conway.

But he stubbed his toe when he classified you readers as "morons" for thinking you could change your personality "by reading a newspaper column or a book or by sending for a newspaper booklet." His blatant charges show how jealousy can subvert the scientific training of a Ph. D. professor. By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE H-572: Prof. Horace was an Ohio State psychologist who resented this column in the Columbus newspaper. He got so irate one day that he wrote a caustic editorial for the campus newspaper, trying to intimate that I was unqualified, etc. For example, he would mention "quacks" in one paragraph; then refer to "Dr. Crane's column" in the next. He kept on alternating his paragraphs, with comments about quacks in one and then a criticism of Dr. Crane in the next, trying by innuendo to depreciate my scientific standing. But he dared not state definitely I was unscientific lest he be sued for libel, for I held more college degrees than he did and had a widely used college textbook which belied his "quack" intimation. But as he continued his editorial, he waxed even more frothy and even took this pot shot at the Columbus CITIZEN by stating: "Anybody is a moron who thinks he can change his per­ sonality by reading a newspaper column or a book or by sending for a newspaper booklet." Some of his students had already written to me a number of times requesting psychological Rating Scales and booklets, so they were on my side, though they didn't dare jeopardize their college grades by saying so in class. But they always kept me informed, as others still do all around the U.S.A. even today. So they mailed me copies of the university newspaper that contained this jealous diatribe. As a result, I used this professor as a case and asked rhetorically if this psychologist had never heard of the Bible when he said you are a moron if you think you can change your personality by reading a book? For a lot of people have certainly made as dramatic a change as Scrooge by studying the Bible. Moreover, I said I'd let the 25,000 readers who had sent for my newspaper Rating Scales and booklets via the Columbus CITIZEN answer Prof. Horace as to whether they considered themselves morons for or­ dering these educational materials. No reader has ever said he didn't feel he got his money's worth from these non-profit booklets. A few have complained when some of my secretaries may accidentally have sent them the wrong booklet. But in all the years of offering this educational service in the field of practical psychology and psychiatry, nobody thus far has ever complained that the booklets didn't prove very helpful. And millions of you readers could refute this irate psychologist's snide remarks about the educational value of the printed newspaper pages. For the newspaper is the major educator of America, especially since most people quit school forever at the age of 18. v They live to be 70, so they rely chiefly on the newspaper for their final 52 adult years. It offers current history on Page One, plus trenchant editorials of a political science variety, as well as many helpful advice columns, plus the financial news, society page, sports and comics. In fact, children who come from homes that subscribe to a daily newspaper, make definitely better grades in school! (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.)

MAY 24, 1972 PRESERVATION OF LAW "Removal of partisan politics from the judiciary is just as important as tough prosecution and thorough police work," Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie declared in a special message last week to the General Assembly. He asked the legislature to adopt an ll-point program to improve protection of the law for Illinois citizens. The governor asked for merit selection of judges, with non­ partisan elections as an interim alternative if a merit selection referendum cannot be achieved in this session, and for funds for the Judicial Inquiry board without "artificial and con­ trived restrictions." SOFT WATER SOFT WATER -SOFT WATER SOFT WATER Have you hiked up Rock Creek lately? You can walk along the top, or scramble along by the water's edge, and either way, it's beautiful and a lot of fun. Rock Creek is part of Kankakee River State Park. Two-thousand-five-hundred- and-forty acres of green grass, big walnut trees, picnic grounds, riverbanks, and lots of running room for the kids. More than twenty-three-hundred acres of Kankakee Park were conveyed to the State of Illinois by Commonwealth Edison through various agreements oyer several years. And judging by the thousands of people who enjoy the park-- Spring, Summer and Fall-- the land couldn't have been put to a better use.

The intermittent beep allows the Wind to follow the path of the ball. According to Mrs. Lily Thomas, educator of the visually impaired at LSS, the audio ball will also "serve as a valuable aid to improve at­ tention spans and encourage motivation" in a new program for young blind children at the school.
