Cross Country* Course Changes Over The Years McHenry High School Harriers have been running on a different home course just about every year Years ago the course ran down Country Club Road and back to the high school in the late 1950 s. In the early 196<)'s it circled around McCracken Field near the fence. The distance was 1.9 miles The I.S.H.A moved the distance up to 2.0 miles, then to 2' ̂ miles and then again to 2 < t miles At the present time it is 3 0 miles, and requires a large area to be covered Hills, valleys and varied scenery all combine to make a good cross country course. When West Campus was built Don Seaton, then coach, laid out an area in back of west that ran into the Whispering Oaks area, before the present homes were there The course was interesting and challenging It ran across a creek through timbered areas and siloes. As homes were built in this area changes had to be made McHenry cross country coaches have had to lay out a different course six times in the past nine years. This year again, because of homes being built on last year's course, a new course had to be mapped out With the help of Don Gerstad, who has helped the eras country teSm for many years, this year's course starts in back of West Campus and runs down to the ponds and creek in back of Whispering Oaks. The construction of roads and buildings still continue though, but by fall 1974 most of the construction will be done in back of West Campus and hopes are that it will be a permanent site for the cross country team Course times and records can then be made and evaluated year after year on the same course.

What are the duties of a "burdened" vessel? 1. Increase speed and cross well ahead of the privileged vessel so as to keep out of the way 2. Take positive and timely action to keep out of the way, usually by changing course and speed by slowing down and passing astern of the privileged vessel 3. Use the general prudential rule so that neither vessel has the right of way. 4. All of the above 3. You are cruising at night and see a red light off your starboard bow 1.

Do not put more than 100 to 150 pounds of vertical weight on the trailer hitch. Most of the boat's weight should be over the trailer wheels. If the trailer weaves back and forth across the road at normal speeds, stop and shift the load forward on the trailer. * * * * Hard work still represents the main essential of suc­ cess in life. Michael J. Howlett, Illinois' Secretary of State, has appealed for national support of special driver education programs for senior citizens. Addressing the seventy - second annual meeting of the American Automobile association, Howlett said his office is organizing refresher courses in Illinois to help elderly drivers prepare for their license renewal tests. More than 1,000 delegates are attending the convention, representing 890 motor clubs of the United States and Canada. The clubs have sixteen million members, who own about a fifth of all the private passenger cars in use. "Although we no longer require a road test on license renewal for younger drivers with good records, Illinois drivers 69 or older must take a complete examination, including a road test, every three years when their licenses expire", Howlett said. "In traveling about the state, I 've learned older drivers frequently are nervous about the renewal test. They would appreciate a driver education course such as we give to high school students. "Senior citizens have good driving records. They drive less and they drive slower than younger drivers. They have fewer accidents. But they flunk the renewal test on the first attempt more often than younger drivers do. "They learned to drive before we even had a driver's license law.

"We are now organizing senior citizen refresher courses in Chicago and surrounding areas on a pilot basis. We intend to spread them state - wide, and we hope you will help us spread the idea nationwide. "We are working through senior citizen organizations to recruit volunteers to conduct the classes. They will be trained by our office, using our manual, the Rules of the Road, as a text. We believe senior citi­ zens who take the course will pass the test easily. "Our Advisory council, with Gen. John D Lawlor as executive director, is putting together a unified program emphasizing the responsibility of every citizen in traffic safety. "We depend on the clubs to help us in our safety effort They speak for the motorist at all levels of government Government can do things to make roads safer, to make cars safer, but nobody can make the motorist safer except the motorist himself.
