PAGE 4 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 9, 1«W Legislation Could Affect Veterans As Congress reconvenes after Labor day they will be faced with at least two important pieces of veterans' legislation regarding educational benefits. Lester Wolff <D-NY> has written the Comprehensive Veterans Readjustment act of 1977 (HR2231) which is aimed at correcting what has been described as serious inequities in the present G.I. bill. This bill should be of major concern to area veterans as it contains a provision for ex­ tending the time period in which a veteran may use the G.I. bill. Currently a veteran has ten years from the date of his-her discharge to complete training. Under Wolff's bill the time period could be extended until the veteran completes his-her program. This would work retroactively to affect those veterans whose benefits were slopped in the middle of their training. Due to the delimiting date of May 31, 1976, 157 veterans were cut-off at McHenry County college this year. In addition to this provision HR2231 would allow the veteran who wants to pursue a two-year technical degree the op­ portunity to receive twice the monthly allotment but would only receive two years worth of benefits instead of four. This would also enable the veteran who does not receive the Illinois Military Scholarship a better chance to pay for tuition if they register thirty days prior to the beginning of a semester. Another piece of legislation that deserves notice is Senator Gary Hart's (D-CO) Veterans Administration Administrative Procedure and Judicial Review act of 1977 (S364). This legislation would allow a veteran who applied for, and was refused, benefits for a service connected disability the right to a review outside of^th^ auspices of the VA. It would also require the VA to hold public hearings on proposed regulations before they may be implemented. Anyone desiring to see these bills become law should write to Senators Percy and Stevenson and also write their Congressman in Washington and ask for their support. If you desire more information on these or other pieces of veterans legislation, call Howard Miller at the McHenry County College Veteran. office, 455-3700 extension 266. jMcHenry Highlights; EDUCATIONAL EVERY SATURDAY GIANT BUFFET STARTS 5:00 Beef & Ham 7 HOT ENTREES Adults *5*° Children *3°° PJu» our regular mwu NIGHTLY BUFFET ADULWSJ®*" ThU£- 5 «* 10 P,m CHILDREN >2.50 rlus our regular menu W E E K E N D E N T E R T A I N M E N T !

Since few businessmen will hire 14-15 year-olds without experience, the SEE program was initiated at East campus to give freshmen and sophomores such work experience. Both the classroom (shop) and the structure of the class reproduce t h e e m p l o y e r - w o r k e r relationship: including a work contract, accountability for attendance and tardiness, manufacture of quality products, and the establish­ ment of work objectives and goals. M r . G o d s h a l l , t e a c h e r - coordinator of the program, which is now in its second year states .."I'm very pleased that after extensive evaluation the state officials were so im­ pressed with the success of this e x p e r i m e n t a l p r o g r a m t h a t they granted us funding for a second consecutive year. The success of the program has resulted in expansion from five classes last year to seven classes this fall." Two years ago Godshall, Mrs. Jacie Smith, school psychologist, and Tom Joynt, former- assistant superin­ tendent, wrote a state proposal for funding of this program and were successful. The state awarded our district $30,000 a year to pay for the teachers, tools, and materials. They increased funding for this year's program to $36,000. Besides learning the skills of responsibility on the job, students are involved in planning, record keeping, production and manufacturing products. New products are constantly being investigated and designs worked out. Most of the products are constructed of wood and their construction is limited to those that can be produced with the following, tools: radial arm saw, circular saw, hand saws, drill press, belt sanders, wood lathes, and routers. In addition, finishing with suitable glues, stains, varnishes and paints is necessary. Several finished products which the SEE Co. students manufactured and sold last year were wooden children's toys: tpy trucks, trains, and cars. The demand for these toys was so great it was dif­ ficult to keep up with the or­ ders. Other products? included w o o d e h p l a n t h o l d e r s a n d prototype toys and teaching devices for the elementary school children in District 15. A display area featuring SEE Co. products is located at Central school district offices on Main street, where orders can be placed. Classes also visit local manufacturing companies businesses. One such field trip was to Roper-IBG corpora tipq, the largest manufacturer of custom greenhouses. . f :• <0 Since the classes stress safety on-the-job, following directions, and other work experiences it incorporates by nature a real "Hands On" approach. Students with reading disabilities and limited study skills, experience some real success as a SEE student. It's a program which well serves the needs of such students. Norb Wolter, assistant principal, and director of the SEE program, "well summarizes its success: "McHenry can be proud that following Title* IV evaluation, the program has met all the objectives established. It's a program that well meets the needs of the sixty-five students it serves." . i THE 1977 RUSTPROOF CAR (It's available f rort^jfour ZTebart Dealer) The rustproof car isn't buHt in some car plant.

Often there is a very definable "personality" type that seems especially prone to this type of disorder. First, the disorder is three to four times more common in men than women..Many of the men are in middle management positions or other positions with responsibility or authority. Instead of making decisions with assurqpee and self con­ fidence, the ulcer personality reacts to important decision making with anxiety and in­ ternalized hostility. With an outward facade of control and self assurance, there is an underlying feeling of depen­ dence and self doubt. Often the ulcer personality is an extremely successful, in­ telligent and competent in­ dividual who actually seems to welcome responsibility and the challenge of a hard decision. Internally, however, the body reacts in a far less satisfactory manner. In short, the ulcer • (Editor's note: This is the forty-third .in a series of especially written articles for McHenry county readers.

In the human body, the presence of food in the stomach stimulates the stomach to •secrete acid to digest the food. It is widely recognized, however, that nervous tension, anxiety and resentment, even more than the presence of food, can stimulate the stomach to produce this acid. Chronic tension, then, can produce acid in sufficient amounts to irritate and actually digest part of the stomach lining, producing an ulceration. More than simple nervous tension is usually needei for the formation of a sto> lach personality is far less self assured and independent than it appears. Actually, he is a very dependent parson who .agonizes internally over responsibility. There is also the presence of a considerable amount of hostility which is held in check under cir­ cumstances where it seems advantageous. Traditionally, of course, ulcers are treated only medically. In addition, however, counseling should be considered to help the patient explore his dependency needp and aftctety; *** *** Talk About Trouble! King Mongut of Siam had 9.000 wives and concubines.
