More than 17 percent of last year's reported injuries from pyrotechnics were to the eye, the sight conservation organization points out. This figure represents only a fraction of actual injuries; there is no way to estimate the numbers treated in doctors' offices, by direct hospital admission or at home. Honor Student Named To Board At College LANITA BURRIS Lanita Burris has been sworn in as the student representative to the McHenry County college board of trustees. Ms. Burris, an honor student who is planning a career in organizational journalism, was elected by MCC students in April.

She is a full- time student at MCC and before her election was employed in the college's financial aids {NOBODY] •BUT NOBODI* X WILL SELL J 4 YOU A NEW# VERSAILLES or BOBCAT 7 LINCOLN oi MONARCH • • • • • • • MARK V or CAPRI COUGAR w XR 7 ZEPHYR or I 7 MARQUIS • • X • FOR LESS* I THAN J XooumseX * HILL * • • • • • • • • • * * * WE'RE OVER STOCKED 1SL NEW CARS * MUST BE • • SOLD M% OVER DEALER INVOICE • X SPECIAL SALE THRU 7/20/7$ • • X • • • • • • • X • X • I COLLEGE I • • • HILL LINCOLN MERCURY • Rt. 31 Juat North • of 176 ^CRYSTAL LAKE, ILL* I 459-4900 office, where she put out the job bulletin for MCC students and other job seekers in the local area. She plans to complete. work on her Bachelor's degree and is currently listed in Who's Who of Students in American Junior Colleges and is the current recipient of the MCC James Gratton Kenna Memorial award for the Humanities. Ms. Burris replaces Vicki Workinger of McHenry who was the student trustee on the college board for 1977-78. As a non-voting member of the college board, Ms. Burris is charged with serving as a liaison between students and the trustees who set policies for the college. She will participate in board discussions and is able to make proposals to the board. During her election cam paign she told MCC students whe felt she could not give back to the school what it has given to her merely by paying tuition. She said that since at 31 she is close to the average age for MCC students she is hopeful that she will be a good representative and be able to bridge the gap between the younger and the older students at the college. She said students who want to become involved at the college are often hampered by a lack of communication with the school and said she hopes students will feel free to talk to her about their concerns. A graduate of Woodstock high school, Ms. Burris recently has participated in workshops for other women who are thinking of returning to school. Also sworn in at the Thursday meeting was JoAnne Murin of Crystal Lake, who was elected as alternate student representative. Among ophthalmologists surveyed in Texas, sixty reported having treated 106 injuries to the s eye from fireworks last year. Fifty-six of these accidents were caused by bottlerockets, in thirty-two cases resulting in total vision loss or impairmnet. Firecrackers and skyrockets followed, with roman candles and apparently harmless items like punk and sparklers, which burn at heats exceeding 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit, also on the list. For many years, the 70-year- old NSPB organization has urged that use of all fireworks be restricted to licensed public display, a measure already enacted into law in many states and municipalities. Still bootleg fireworks appear regularly on street corners and in under-the- counter sales. Since the majority of fireworks victims are usually under the age of 15, parents are advised to keep even the smallest firecrackers out of the hands of their children. What looks like fun to the young can injure and even blind. NSPB says enjoy the holidays, but enjoy them safely.

ROUTE 120 McHENRX, ILL. 385-9670 WHAT S NEW The car of the future, through greater use of high-strength "super plastics", will be lighter than ever. According to a fiber glass industry spokesman, first production parts made of new super plastics material should be on the road by 1980, of fering a weight savings of 50 per cent or more per part. This will mean cars no longer will need heavy springs, heavy shock absor bers and similar items which add to total weight and costs. Auto makers believe lighter materials will help them meet federal regulations requiring a fleet average fuel economy of 27.5 miles per gallon by 1985.

This is a big year for the United Way of McHenry County. Since the United Way of Crystal Lake had grown so through the years, it was just a matter of time before it would go county-wide. After many weeks of planning and debating, the concept was finally adopted and the United Way of Crystal Lake became the United Way of McHenry County. With such expansion, problems and needs have also grown. The board of directors had to be enlarged from fifteen to twenty-one members, to bring in representation from other McHenry county com munities. A new agency has been added, replacing United Cerebral Palsy, which did not request funding this year. The new agency is the Youth Ser vice Bureau for .McHenry County. > The YSB is a community based social service agency designed to assist troubled young people and their families in McHenry county. In less than two years of service to county residents, the YSB has worked with a large number of people, established the credibility of its staff and its services and has built a solid, organizational foundation. While they have been provided in the past with grants from the Illinois Law Enforcement commission and a private foundation ad ministered by the Continental Bank of Chicago, they are still in need of a large portion of the monies to be realized from this year's campaign. Indeed, all agencies with few exceptions have applied for a much larger share, now that the United Way has gone county-wide. Of course, they will not be mounting individual fund raising drives as in the past and must look to the United Way for the extra funding they would normally realize from these drives. The United Way of McHenry County, therefore, has had to set a goal to an all-time high of $315,000. "Admittedly, the goal is a very ambitious one," said Rick Bernotas, president of the United Way of McHenry County, "but the spirit of people helping people is not confined to one or two com munities solely. If the entire county will get behind the fall campaign, the goal will be attainable." The Planning and Allocations committee that chaired the various panels conducting the hearings, included United Way directors, Bert Emerson of Marengo, Larry Lund of McHenry, Dick Kropp of Crystal Lake and Bob Proctor and John O'Hagan of Wood stock. The residential solicitation will not be utilized this year. Instead, more emphasis wiU be applied to the Payroll Deduction plan, which em ployed individuals county-wide, may participate in. This procedure has been, by far, the most successful method of solicitation the United Way has experienced. To succeed, a campaign analysis breaks down as follows: > jifts: Payroll deduction: Government employees: Professions: Educational employees: Not-for-profit employees: Commercial and other: 25.0percent...$ 79,750 48.7 percent...153.406 7.6percent... 23,940 3.1 percent... 9,765 3.4 percent... 10,710 2.2 percent... 9,765 10 percent... 31,500 $315,000 A total of $315,500 is a long way to go, but contributors in the past have not only achieved previous goals, but have sur passed them. It is this spirit of giving, this concern for others less fortunate in the county, that board members of the United Way of McHenry County feel will bring this coming fall campaign to another successful conclusion.

Youth For Understanding S u m m e r t i m e : w e e k e n d jaunts to the beach or park; county fairs and field days; baseball; backyard barbecues featuring (of course!) hotdogs and hamburgers. Familiar activities-unless you happen to be like some 3,700 teeanagers who will be arriving in the United States from twenty-six foreign countries later this summer. Over the course of a year-long stay with an American family, each of these students will have an op portunity to take part in many activities like these; activities typical of day-to-day life in the United States. The students will stay with «families in communities across the country under the auspices of Youth for Understanding, a n o n - p r o f i t i n t e r n a t i o n a l student exchange program. Since Youth for Understanding began in Michigan in 1951, over 60,000 young people from the United States and fifty other countries have participated in the program. The family living experience is the heart of the program. It offers students an unique chance to become personally involved in the homes, schools and communites of their host countries. Both the students and their host families have the opportunity to deepen their comprehension of, and respect for, other peoples and cultures. The students who will be arriving later this summer come from countries in Latin America, Europe, the Middle and Far East, and from Australia. Typically, the im pressions of the United States SUBSCRIBE To The McHenry Plaindealer that students bring with them have been gleaned from en capsulated versions of headline news; from watching popular American televifion exports like •'Kojak'* or ••Police woman"; or from familiarity with American popular culture -U.S. music and way of dress. It is these impressions that will be evaluated and expanded upon as the students gain facility in English, interact with mem bers of their new "family", and attend community high schools. According to Jeanne Jacob, regional director for Youth for Understanding in this area, opportunities still exist for area families who would be in terested in hosting a young student from another country for the next year. Says Jacob, "In one sense there is no 'typical* host family; host families are of all different backgrounds, family sizes, and income levels. Like the students themselves, each host family has unique in terests and things that they like to do. In another sense, though, all host families are alike. They art people who would mfay introducing a young person to our customs and culture, and who feel that the experience would be a rewarding one for them." The students who come to the United States are required to have conversational ability in English and are responsible for their own personal expenses and spending money. Host families ^provide room and board, and the same love and guidance they would give to their own children. Jeanne Jacob encourages anyone interested in the host family experience, or in the opportunities for American students to go abroad under the Youth for Understanding program, to contact her at 600 Enterprise Dr., Oak Brook, 111., 60521. Auto Service Tips Safe driving, good tire mileage, and responsive steering depend upon correct tire pressure. Check tires (and spare) at least once per month to assure recom mended pressure is main tained. Invest in a good tire guage and learn now to use it. If tire wears on edges, tires do not have enough pressure; wear in the center indicates too much pressure.
