SCHOOLSMOKING "Dear Public Pulse; "I have heard so much lately about the new smoking room policy at East campus high school and I feel the need to put forward some of my thoughts on the subject. To begin with I am a former smoker who began smoking in high school. I did so, more or less, to feel 'grown up'. I can remember feeling 'cool' whenever I lit up. In some evil sense it was a pleasure to shock both parents and friends whenever I took out a cigarette. After awhile I had the habit and I did not get rid of it for several years. I became a one-pack-a- day smoker. I can understand, therefore, * the reasons why young men and women begin to smoke, foolish as those reasons may be, and I can understand the 'nicotine fit'.a smoker goes through when he or she feels the need for a cigarette and can't have one. "And yet I cannot understand Legal Notice IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE 19TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, McHENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS PROBATE DIVISION ESTATE OF MICHAEL SPLENDORIA Deceased, FILE NO. 75-P-2 Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 194 of the Probate Act, of the death of the above named decedent and that letters of Administration were issued on Jan. 2, 1975, to Jeseline Dober, 108 W. Bay Rd., McHenry, Illinois, whose at­ torney of record is Thomas M. Daly, One N. LaSalle St., Chicago, 111. Claims may be filed within 6 months from the date of issuance of Letters and that any claim not filed within that period is barred as to the estate which is inventoried within that period. Claims against said estate should be filed in the Probate office of the Clerk of said Court, County Court House, Wood­ stock, Illinois, and copies thereof mailed or delivered to said legal representative and to said attorney. MARGARET O'NEIL Clerk of the Court (Pub. Jan. 8, 15,22, 1975) th? school board's contention that a smoking room is necessary. Any smoker will probably tell that smoking is unhealthy. The administrators of the school will probably not quarrel with the Surgeon General's report that smoking is dangerous to one's health. This fact was part of the reason for the existence of the rule against smoking in the first place. "What, then, is the reason for the existence of the smoking room? I feel that the problem is basically a discipline one. The school bo&rd and the school officials tell us that the use of the room will prevent students from sneaking into «• the washrooms and smoking. Or from sneaking up town or off into some corner of the cam­ pus. They have therefore 'confined' the problem and can now control it. "What they are really saying is that they were unable or unwilling to enforce one of their own rules and have therefore given up. They have now 'legalized' smoking. Instead of taking measures to enforce the rule they have done away with it and for the sake of con­ venience are now condoning smoking among young persons 13, 14 and 15 years old. This seems terribly inconsistent with the health movies shown in the schools depicting the hazards of smoking and is in direct conflict with the policy reasons underlying the Illinois ban on cigarette sales to minors, which is that persons under 18 are incapable of making their own decision on smoking. "In addition, the move has not really solved anything. Only those students whose parents approve are allowed into the smoking room. But I understand from speaking to some high school students that those smokers who have not received parental approval are still sneaking into the washrooms and other places to have a cigarette. Are we to believe that the ad­ ministrators are suddenly more capable of controlling this problem? Or more willing? For that matter, are they more capable of controlling a smoking room than a washroom? "I feel strongly that the restriction on smoking was a good rule. First, it was premised on a decision that smoking was hazardous to health. Secondly, it stood for the proposition that 13, 14 and 15-year-old children are not old enough to decide the smoking question for themselves. 1 have seen no statistics to disprove either of these premises and the school board would be hard pressed to come up with any. I challenge them to do so. "Some people argue that this is basically a parental problem and that it should be up to the parents whether their children smoke or not.'The argument goes that the school officials should not have to regulate and control such actions...that this is a parental responsibility. But all discipline problems belong to the home. Great problems like alcohol or drugs or lesser problems such as impoliteness or just plain disrespect belong to the home. It is there that children first learn what they can or cannot do. And yet I hope the school officials would not argue that there should be a 'beer room' or a 'necking room' for those students who obtain parental permission. And, disrespect for teachers and staff has never been condoned and should not be. The fact that some parents allow things in their homes or that other parents are irresponsible in their handling of children should not dictate school policy. Nor should the fact that 'everyone is doing it' be any reason for the extinction of a rule based squarely on sound policy "Sincerely, "Gary Lockwood "2027 N. Woodlawn Park "McHenry" JOHNSBURG SCHOOL "Dear Editor: "I would like to have this opportunity to reply to Mr. Oakley's letter in last week's column. "Before he makes a statement regarding the signatures on the petition concerning the feasibility study, I suggest he checks his information more carefully. He obviously has been misin­ formed, or someone is guilty of forgery. "I am secretary of the facilities and transportation and have not signed the petition. "I, as the other members, am an active, concerned parent and want only the best for our children. "I'm appalled at all the ignorance and hostility con­ cerning this study. "Sincerely, "Mrs. Deanna Price" (Editor's note) One paragrah in Mr. Oakley's letter was incorrectly stated in last week's issue. It should have read: "The members of the feasibility study committee have agreed that if the study shows that it would not be feasible to form a K-12 district within the District 12 boun­ daries, the petition will be with­ drawn prior to a hearing date. In view of the composition of the' feasibility committee, I deem this very unlikely".

Builta. of IVIinonk, Illinois, who has served as president of the Illinois III A for the past two years was reelected to serve another two- year term at the 1975 annual meeting. Active in civic, church and educational affairs, Kuilta has given much time to the MIA movement both on a state and county basis. Prior to becoming president, he served three years as treasurer of the State Association. The 1975 annual meeting of the Illinois Health Im­ provement association was held in Springfield, Jan. 14-16. Known as the Illinois HIA, this is the only organization of its kind in the world, with over 360,000 members in Illinois. Among those who attended from this area were Mr. and Mrs. Norman Liedberg, Mr. and Mrs. George Filip, Mr. and Mrs. Glen Wright, Mrs. Virginia Peacock and Mrs. Kussell Kelahan, Woodstock, and Mr. and Mrs. Ray Kirk- man, Hebron. Proceeds of the Celebrity night benefit program, held the night preceding the regular sessions of the annual meeting, went to the Health Im­ provement foundation. Expect 4,000 Dally Calls For State Tax Help Officials of the Illinois Department of Revenue say they expect to answer as many as 4,000 telephone calls a day from people seeking help in filling out and filing state in­ come tax returns this year. Revenue Director Robert H. Allphin said the services are available by calling the tax­ payer information section toll- free at 800-252-8972. Hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. week days. The director said the department was encouraging people to call with any questions about their state income tax returns. "The only foolish question is the one . that's not asked," Allphin said. "If taxpayers call us with their question- and it doesn't matter how unim­ portant it may seem-they might avoid a mistake that could double or even triple the time it takes to process their return and get their refunds to them." One of the most frequent errors on returns, Allphin said, is an incorrect Social Security number. Calling it a vital part in processing the return, the Established in 1963, the foun­ dation provides funds for scholarships and other wor­ thwhile contributions in the health field. In 1974, scholar­ ships were allotted to thirteen colleges throughout Illinois to provide financial aid to worthy" students studying for careers in the health field, including hospital and medical technology, nursing, physical therapy and medicine. The theme of this year's' annual meeting was "It's Health I Appreciate," representing the work of the association. The meeting was devoted to interesting health news and health-related topics, according to Howard P. Builta, president. PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22,1975 generally people who count on prompt refunds," Allphin said. "Most pension incomes are not taxed in Illinois, but we need to know which pension plan the taxpayer lias." A copy of the completed section on pensions from the federal return can be used air support for the pension exemption on the Illinois return. Allphin said the taxpayer u 1rp^o"o services would speed director advised that the taxpayer double-check social security numbers. Pensioners with any questions should also call, the director said. The processing of as many as one-fourth of the returns filed by pensioners is delayed because pension support documents are not attached "We're especially concerned with services to taxpayers like these because they are up thousands of returns by helping people avoid mistakes before they file. Other ways to insure prompt service include filing returns early, making sure the Social Security number is correct signing the return, enclosing W- 2 forms and other support documents, using the pre- addressed label on the tax form, and mailing the return in the envelope provided.
