ATHLETE OF WONDERLAKE Being totally non-athletic in every respect, I have always envied Other women who were agile in the sports department. I figured they knew how to fall and protect themselves so that they would not get injured. - One of our sporty young Wonder Lake ladies has run into a streak of bad luck in the injury department lately. Francine Marke, P.E. instructor at Nor- thwood Jr. high, sprained her wrist while spotting for a group of tumblers a few weeks ago. Last week, it was her ankle! Maybe Fran will give some serious thought to a career in cake decorating, one of her other loves!

One will be a regular dance band, and the other a Blue Grass band. Tickets may be obtained from any of the members, or at Hermes Drug store on Hancock drive. Profits from the dance will help the Men's club further their financial support to local children's activities such as Boy's Baseball and the Scouting program. SPECIAL DAYS Thirty years ago this month, Wonder Lake was fortunate to welcome its own doctor. Dr. Santos and Mary Ruggero, have been an active part of the community ever since. Fifty years ago, on Feb. 22, water went over the Wonder Lake dam for the first time. I certainly hope there will be some celebrating on our golden anniversary possibly this coming summer. Adam Parquette blew out three candles on his birthday cake Feb. 18. Happy birthday to Wonder Woods favorite secretary, Marge Evans Feb. 20. Happy birthday Feb. 23 to Russ Graff, son of A1 and Rita Graff.

Dixon Secretary of State Driving safely at night requires alertness, con­ sideration of the other driver, knowledge of your vehicle's capabilities and observance of the Rules of the Road. Statistics show that night driving is four times more deadly than day driving. Here are six ad­ ditional suggestions to add to last week's list to help you drive safely at night: 1. Keep your windshield clean. 2. Stay awake and alert. Do not drive if you are tired or sleepy. Frequent stops, fresh air, lively radio programs and similar measures can help avoid drowsiness and inattention. 3. Watch carefully for highway signs. They are harder to see at night. 4. Be especially watchful for pedestrians and vehicles stopped along the edge of the road. 5. Do not stop on the roadway for any reason. 6. Carry a red warning light for use When stops alongside the roadway are unavoidable. (A copy of the Rules of the Road booklet will be sent to you upon request. Write to Alan J. Dixon, Secretary of State, Springfield, 111., 62756.) SECTION 2 - PAGE 1 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 21. MM Folk Arts At Johnsburg Folk Arts are becoming increasingly more popular in this country and Urban Gateways, Chicago's out­ standing arts education organization, has expanded its folk arts program to include dances from the Philippine Islands. On Tuesday, Feb. 26, Philippine folk dances will be performed at Johnsburg high school, 2002 Ringwood road, McHenry. * The dancers, accompanied by a rondalla band com­ posed of stringed in­ struments, demonstrate the unique and lovely dances and costumes of Philippine Islands. the Folk dances representing the three main cultures of the Philippines- Asian, Spanish and Muslim - make up this beautifully costumed program of traditional Filipino performing arts. Guitar, octavina and banurria introduce students and teachers to a sampling of folk music. A narrator provides background in­ formation on the culture and folk arts of Filipino- Americans. Students and teachers, alike, will leave this cultural experience feeling as though they have just visited the Philippines. Urban Gateways is a nonprofit arts education organization located at 205 W. Wacker drive, Chicago. The agency serves more than 600,000 students and their teachers in some 700 schools throughout the six- county metropolitan area in a community-based arts educat ion program called the model for the nation by the National Ed- nowment for the Arts. Urban Gateways is funded by federal, state and city governments, individuals. A rtists-ln-Residence Program Deadline Set March 31 is the deadline for interested schools and community groups to apply for an Illinois Arts Council Artists-in-Residence program for 1980-81. Artists-in-Residence programs are available in the following disciplines: visual arts, crafts, music, dance, theatre, architecture, creative writing, folk arts, film, and video. The artist- in-residence serves as a catalyst for creative activity and as an artistic resource for the school and com­ munity. Residencies can last anywhere from two to nine months. They provide students, teachers, and community members with the opportunity of working with a professional artist. Through hands-on workshops, participants experience a variety of creative processes enabling them to enhance their powers of perception using tools and skills they might not otherwise develop. While in residence, an artist spends half his time conducting classes, workshops, lecture- demonstrations, and giving performances for the school and community. The remainder of the time of an artist-in-residence is spent on his own artistic work in a local studio space. With funding assistance from the Illinois Arts council and the National En­ dowment for the Arts, local costs are from one-quarter to one-half of the total cost of each residency. Costs to participating schools and organizations range from $300 for a one-week writer- in-residence, to $4,000 for a nine-month school year. Applications for the. 1980-81 Artists-in-Residence program must show evidence of both community and school participation in planning, implementation, and evaluation of the residency. Information and ap­ plication guidelines may be obtained by contacting Suzanne Swanson, artists-in- residence coordinator, Illinois Arts Council, 111 N. Wabash, Chicago, 111., 60602: (312) 793-6765.

This summer, hundreds of U.S. students will find jobs in France, Ireland, Great Britain and New Zealand through the Work Abroad program sponsored by the Council on International Educational Exchange (CIEE). In its tenth year of operation, the program cuts through the red tape that students face when they want to work overseas. Participants must find their own jobs, but they receive help from cooperating student organizations in each country. In France and New Zealand, they may work during the summer; in Britain and Ireland, they may work at any time of the year for up to six months and four months respectively. The jobs are usually un­ skilled - in factories, department stores, hotels, etc. - but they pay enough to cover the cost of room and To work in France, they must be able to speak French. For more in­ formation and applicaton forms, contact CIEE, Dept. PR-WA, 205 East 42nd Street, New York, N.Y., 10017; or 312 Sutter Street, San Francisco, Calif., 94108. board. A typical job might be that of a chambermaid or porter in a hotel in London's West End. Last summer, one enterprising student found work as a wool presser on a New Zealand sheep farm. Students must be at least 18 years old and able to prove their student status.
