Left to right, they are Ed bia^s. vice-president; Dan Hoffihan. secretary; Dean Smith, division chairman for the MCC technology division; Gunther Bantin, director; Werner Moders, director; Ken Pearson, treasurer; and Harry Braun. president. Lait fall the McHenry County Industrial Education and Training association donated a storage building to McHenry County college for use by its technology division. The new building, which will house automobiles, mechanical t e c h n o l o g y p r o g r a m machinery and agricultural equipment, was recently dedicated at a ceremony at the college. The brown metal building is located behind the applied Science building on campus and is the first building in a proposed four building storage complex planned at MCC. The building makes it possible to store classroom materials, automobiles that are being worked on by automotive technology students and other equipment. As a result more efficient utilization of valuable classroom space is possible, according to Dean Smith, division chairman for the technology division. The program, which is en tering its eleventh year at MCC, prepares students to work in local industry and gives them both federal journeyman certification and college credit for their students. Although classes have begun at MCC, Smith noted that late registrations are being ac cepted for the apprenticeship programs. The directors of the association who attended the dedication of the new building included Harry Braun, president; Ed Glass, vice- president; Ken Pearson, treasurer; Dan Hoffman, secretary; and Werner Moders and Gunther Bantin, directors. Speech-Language f-"' Pre-School For Problems Speech and language problems in adults are hard to ignore, but it's a different thirig with children. With kids, there's a tendency to think it's cute or that it's normal for the age. And sometimes it's hard to accept the fact that a problem exists. The following are guidelines for what a child should be able to do at a specific age. There may be speech and-or language problems if a child: - Cannot say "Mama" and "Dada" by age 1; " - Cannot say the names of a vfew toys and people by age 2; - Cannot repeat common rhymes or TV jingles by age 3; - Is not talking in short sentences by age 4 ; - Is not understood by people outside the family by age 5. Ignoring these early warning signs of speech and language difficulty does not solve the problem, it just makes a bad situation worse for the child. The Easter Seal Therapy center in Woodstock offers a Speech and Language Pre- School program designed 'to help correct these problems before a child enters school and is frustrated or set apart by a lack of communication skills. The Pre-School meets two mornings a week for a two-hour period. Due to the relatively short attention span of young children, various activities are presented during the two-hour period. All of the activities revolve around language development and language concepts, both in groups and in individual therapy for each child. Parents are occasionally asked to observe pre-school setting. As for the effectiveness of the center's speech therapy program, one father com mented, "One of my eight kids had a speech problem a few years ago. Easter Seals did such a good job that I can't even remember now which kid had the problem."

Dixon Secretary of State Crisp fall weather and the onset of the school year bring bicycles out of garages and onto the streets. This year there will be even more bicycles in use as people search for an answer to rising gasoline prices. Since the bicycle is a slow- moving and vulnerable vehicle, almost any accident will result in injury. By observing a few safety hints, drivers can reduce the hazards for cyclists and motorists alike. 1. Be especially careful when passing a bicycle. Give the bicycle ptoity of room and be preparecHor a quick stop. 2. Remember, a bicycle is hard to see in traffic. Be especially watchful at in tersect ipns and be prepared to allow for any turns they may make. School areas require special precaution. 3. If the cyclist is traveling between you and the road as you are preparing to turn, be sure he knows of your intention and is not in your path. If he is riding along the right edge of the roadway, you must wait until he slows down to allow you to turn in front of him. or proceeds through the turning areas before you make your turn. (A copy of the rules of the Road will be sent to you upon request. Write to Alan J. Dixon, Secretary of State, Springfield, 111 62756.)
