Strong*, PAGE 5 - PLAINDEALER - FRIHAV. OCTOBER 21. 197. by Gerry Johnson 1*1; Teacher Back in the Swim After Retiring H a ii ' be fei No matter how carefully ' people plan for the future, things don't always work out the way we expected them to. Seventy-year-old Oscar Gunkler, of Berea, Kentucky, is a good ex­ ample of this. When "Occie," as he is known to his friends, re­ tired as Chairman of the Department of Health and Physical Education at Berea College, he was well-pre- ;jt pared for life in retirement v .--or so he thought. >'i: "I had five-year plans and i: ten-year plans," Gunkler " told a writer from The Na­ tional Council on the Aging. "There were a lot of things , I wanted to do after I retired and I thought I'd be busy every minute." I Things didi/t work out • that way, however. While Gunkler's wife, Ora, con­ tinued to teach English courses at Berea, his retire- ^ment plans weren't working < according to plan. After 42 \?<years at Berea, Gunkler |found the transition from Icareer to retirement more difficult than he'd imagined. '• "I thought I'd prepared for every possible conting­ ency," he said. "I don't think anyone could plan their retirement more care­ fully than I did, but I real­ ize now that you can't write down what your emotional reaction will be." When the opportunity to go to Burma came up, Gunkler jumped at the chance. Working under the •-mtrfces 61 the SreRT~De'-~ partment, the Gur$ip<& are scheduled to arrive in Burma at the end of July. Ora will teach courses in American Literature and Occie will be in charge of setting up a swimming pro­ gram for Burmese athletes. The ultimate goal of the program is to develop swim­ mers good enough to com­ pete in the Pan-Asian games. Both of the Gunklers are excited by the six to twelve , months they'll spend in Bur­ ma. But for Occie Gunkler, it means more than a chance to go to Burma: es­ tablishing a swimming pro- c- gram represents a challenge f to the skills and knowledge i he's acquired over the years l as a teachet of physical ed- l ucation. ' "I'll be starting from J scratch," Gunkler said, "be- l cause the Burmese people r don't swim much for recre- | ation, let alone on a com- | petitive level." 6 Developing new pro- grants is nothing new to Gunkler. He introduced GET PROFESSIONAL carpet cleaning results!

Elm St. McHenry, III. 385-0722 soccer as an intercollegiate sport in Kentucky and was the founder and sponsor of the Folk Club, the forerun­ ner of the nationally known Berea Country Dancers. Student members of the troupe have toured the country performing .folk dances originating in Ap- palachia. Gunkler also served as coach of Berea's basket­ ball and track teams, which won nine state champion­ ships under his guidance. Swimming has always been a major interest of Gunk­ ler's and he looks forward to developing a program in Burma. With a return to the field of physical education bring­ ing an end to his post-re­ tirement blues, Gunkler was asked what advice he'd give others planning their retirement. "Make plans, by all means," he said. "You have to know what your income will be after retirement and make a budget, for ex­ ample.. But I think the key is to remain flexible if things don't happen the way you thought they would. Life doesn't always work according to plan when you're younger and there's no reason it should when you retire." MEMBERS OF THE Philadelphia Center for Older People have organ­ ized a Skills Bank to help stretch retirement incomes. Members exchange their particular skill for that of' another. For example, a hair stylist cuts another member's hair. In exchange, the member gives advice on preparing income tax re­ turns. Other services regis­ tered in the Skills Bank are carpentry, electrical repair, typing, gardening, etc. The Skills Bank is readily adapt­ able to other senior organ­ izations M "MEANWHILE BACK AT THE COURTHOUSE" MCC Lists Top Students BRANCHCOURT Associate Circuit Judge Michael Sullivan Patricia A.

School. The Students' View Nutritional Quality Many foods today are manufactured into products that are different from tra­ ditional foods.. .frozen din­ ners; breakfast cereals; meal replacements; noncarbonated breakfast beverages fortified with Vitamin C; and such main dishes as macaroni and cheese, pizza, stews, and cas­ seroles. So consumers can be as­ sured of getting proper level of nutrients when using such foods, the Food and Drug Administration is establishing voluntary nutritional guide­ lines. A product that com­ plies with an FDA guideline may include on its label a statement that it meets the U. S. nutritional quality guideline for that particular class of food. This article and hopefully many more, will be dealing with the students' point of view about District 15 schools. We will begin with Parkland school and expand to the other schools. This will also include what's happening in the schools. We will inform you of student activities, such as sports, student council, assemblies, concerts, etc. We will tell about changes in Parkland school and others. There are nine of us on the staff: Terri Nuss, Tracey Tietz, Suzy Dober, Meg Hoffman, Heidi Reihansperger, Stacy Fox, Laura Huff, Jo Anne Campbell and Bob Wilson. Watch for our next column!

Calling Colleen BY COLLEEN DtlDQCON Busy Bodies Bother The Single Girl I'm 24 years old and I'm single! Is that such a surprise in this day and age? Every time somebody asks me if I have a steady boyfriend or if I have plans to be married, I nearly die. I'd like to tell all you people out there that there's really nothing wrong with being single. I happen to like it and I wish people would get off my back. I feel like 1 have an in­ curable disease every time I go to a family gathering and all the relatives start in on me. I have a steady job, which I happen to care more about than any male at the moment, and I earn my own way. I take vacations by myself and I spend a lot of time alone.- Is there anything socially undesirable about me or is it the rest of those people who think I'm a misfit just because I'm not married? It's gotten to the point where I'm quite rude to these people who keep hounding me to find a man to support me. I'm happy, but I'm also a bit paranoid because other people are making me feel like I shouldn't be single. Cynical Single Dear Single: The next time somebody bugs you about being single you might ask "Why is it that you're so worried about me?" Or, even bet­ ter "Perhaps you'd like to be single again and you're taking this opportunity to tell me you're jealous?" If you don't want to bother with their answers just say "Yes, I'm single and I intend to stay that way." Let them worry about the why's and why nots. Have fun and enjoy!
