Andreas, superintendent, Mrs. Mabel Weber, director of this year's program, and Michael DeWolfe, guidance counselor. Teachers Evelyn Zovnar, Pat Neff, Rita Nardi, Margaret Stenzel, Bill Snow and Mabel Weber worked in the reading program assisted by Jan Nellis and Jane Vanderstappen in the learning center. Mrs. Marie Klein, a volunteer teacher, also wopked with the children each day on the reading machines. Her services were very valuable and appreciated by the children and staff. Rita Nardi is a learning disabilities teacher, and her services added a new dimension to this summer's program, as did the full time services of the guidance counselor, Mr. DeWolfe. Mrs. Linda Seaborn, Mrs. Terry Reinhard and Dick Seaborn taught the children in math. The math and reading program included children in grades 1-8 this year, rather than grades 1-6 as in the past. This program is sponsored by the school in connection with the federal government for any child in District 12 who has been referred for continued study in reading or math, satisfies need criteria, will promise creditable attendance during the six-week period of study, and who has potential to be motivated with the equipment and staff available. The corrective reading and math program began June 10, and ended on July 19 with sixty- four children attending from Johnsburg public school and St. John's parochial school. The children in the reading program attended for two hours a day while those in math attended a one-hour session. The reading program involved the children in three two-week team teaching units. As a component of the first unit of plants, each child planted seeds and watched their growth. Filmstrips about plants were shown and the r e a d i n g e x p e r i e n c e s corresponded with the plant theme. In the same manner, the next two week's theme of present in myocardial infraction. A graduate of the University of Bombay College of Medicine in 1962, Dr. Baxamusa served residencies in Bombay, Cardiff and London. He was the recipient of a fellowship in cardiology at the P e n n s y l v a n i a h o s p i t a l , Philadelphia, and a fellowship in pediatric cardiology at Cook County hospital. Fairy Tales had pupils relating to filmstrips, records and books that intrigued the children. The last two weeks were spent concentrating on our senses. Again, audio-visual and electronic culture equipment and games encouraged the children to learn more about our fine senses, and as a spin­ off, improved their reading. Testing, to determine gains according to the goals of the program, was done at the beginning of the six-week sessions and again at the end. Much diagnostic and prescriptive testing was performed as an onward going daily process. In the majority of cases improvement was shown - and in some cases a very marked improvement was shown. An objective of the program in addition to improved skills, was to work with the children concerning improved attitude toward reading, math, self, teachers and others. The results were also positive in this area, and the guidance counselor was greatly involved in assessment and evalualtive aspects of the program.

"Editor: "A very inequitable situation in the physical education program at the McHenry high school has come to my attention that I feel the people in the school district should be aware of. "I understand that School District 156 has fifteen teachers working full or part time in the physical education program for boys and only four teachers in the same program for girls. "I do not believe that the number of teachers assigned to the girls' program should be the same as those working for boys since we do not have the same interscholastic girls' On July 2 the children involved in the program attended the Museum in Milwaukee, and on July 17, the children enjoyed a field day in the afternoon with various relays, a ball game, dodge ball, a water-filled balloon toss game, and ended the afternoon with an ice cream treat. Supt. Andreas and members of the board of education for District 12 are pleased to offer their students these summer experiences. Facilities and staff are utilized to suit unique needs. They feel their efforts are appreciated by the interest, enthusiasm and support shown by the children and their parents. Suggestions are appreciated, and a planning session with parents concerning next summer's program will soon be held. sporfs program. However, it does seerp that the same physical development of girls through a well rounded physical education and intramural program is as equally important as the physical development of the boys in our community. "All this was brought to my attention as the result of the decision of the senior high school administrator not to hire Kathleen Bolger, an extremely well qualified physical education teacher and lifelong resident of our community. Kathy is a summa cum laude graduate of Northern Illinois university who was an outstanding participant in basketball, tennis, swimming and field hockey there. She is also a rated official of the state of Illinois and has officiated at girls' games at McHenry high school and elsewhere. "I do think the overall physical education program should provide more opportunities and programs for girls and I think this is a definite matter for the board of education to consider.

CYCLONE IS COMING TO Jos.H.Huemann & SONS WELL DRILLING by Bob JUSTEN] Every seminary student requires training and consider­ able education before he can be ordained a minister in any denomination. The profession is probably the least rewarded. His hours are not his own. His cler­ ical collar makes him subject to call at any time, night o r d a y . S o . . . . When you think about your pastor and the things he has to do, do you ever wonder if his work is ever through?...From the moment that he rises at the dawn­ ing of the day, he has many kinds of labor and a lot for which to pray. . .He has all sorts of meetings which each day he must attend, and there are always some which never seem to endL.He has his Sunday sermons that each week he must prepare and he knows his congregation wants them more than pretty fair... When you think about your pastor and the work he has to face, can you truly say that you would like to take his place? (Did you ever tell him that?) GEORGE R.
