Blame Drivers In Two Hit And Run Accidents PAGE 15-1 ,1 ici * Dj ;o v i « a *;t«/, A McHenry man received four citations from McHenry police after the car he was driving ran into the rear of a school bus last Friday af­ ternoon. Both the driver of the bus, Crystal M. Reed, of 5121 Willow, McHenry, and a witness to the incident were not sure how the accident happened. Ms. Reed told v police the bus was stopped at the intersection of Route 31 and Bull Valley road when she "heard and felt the crunch." None of the 11 passengers in the bus was injured. The driver noted the auto's license plate number as it left the scene. Ernest H. Montie, of 3308 W. Elm street, McHenry, was ticketed for driving too fast for conditions, driving without a valid license, failure to give aid or in­ formation and leaving the scene of vehicle damage or accident. In a somewhat similar incident, Charles L. Campo, of 4406 East drive, Wonder Lake, was cited for leaving the scene of an accident and failing to give aid or in­ formation after his car ran into the rear of another auto at the intersection of Ringwood and McCullom Lake roads. The driver of the other auto, Richard C. Groves, of 1408 Lakeview, McHenry, told Sheriff's police his auto was hit as it stopped for the sign. The Campo vehicle was reported to have left the scene and was followed by a car equipped with a CB radio. The police heard the CB transmission and located Campo. Richard A. Sklarski, of 2604 Fair Oaks, McHenry, was ticketed for driving while intoxicated after his car ran into a parked auto on River road early Monday morning. The parked vehicle belonged to Anne M. Drezen, of Rolling Meadows, 111. Helen D. Spencer, of Woodstock, was driving west on Bull Valley road when she saw an auto approaching the intersection with Curran road. Ms. Spencer told police she thought the other auto would stop for the sign., It didn't. The driver of the other auto, Vincent P. Nett, of 6906 Route 120, McHenry, said he . looked to the left but did not see the oncoming car. Nett was cited for failure to yield the right-of-way. An auto driveh by Jim A. Machnik, of 1103 Florence, McHenry, was crossing the Pearl street bridge when an oncoming auto sideswiped the Machnik car and left the scene. The driver of the other auto has not been contacted, according to the Sheriff' police, but the investigation into the accident is con­ tinuing. Othele R. Brady, of 402 Santa Barbara, McHenry, was ticketed for failure to yield the right-of-way from a left turn after her car skidded, into another auto. The driver of the other vehicle was Bonnie B. Proesel, of 1305 Chapel Hill road, McHenry. Craig H. Bacle, of 914 Hayden, McHenry, told police he was attempting to make a left turn onto Wilmot road from Hayden and did not see an oncoming vehicle. The oncoming vehicle was driven by Neal J. Loth, of Crystal Lake. Bacle was ticketed for failure to yield the right-of- way from a stop or in­ tersection. The Sheriff's police were called to the intersection of Route 176 and Woods after a car, driven by Lawrence W. Delke, of 4816 Roberts, McHenry, ran into the rear of another vehicle. The driver of the other vehicle, Harold M. An­ dersen, of Route 2, McHenry, said his car was struck as he slowed to make a right turn. No citations were issued and the report noted the icy roads. Sharon L. Johnson, of 8908 Memory trail, Wonder Lake, was driving east on Route 120 when an approaching car swerved out of control and almost hit her car head-on. The other car struck the left side of the Johnson vehicle. The driver of the other car was Sheryl L. Roberts, of 2101 Coolidge, McHenry. Janice B. Griffin, of 1908 Oakleaf, McHenry, was driving east on Ringwood road when her tires were caught in the drifted snow. She told police she lost control of the auto, which traveled onto a snow banked shoulder and rolled over, coming to rest upside down. Ms. Griffin was not in­ jured. Timothy E. Quinn, of 514 Bald Knob road, McHenry, said a gust of wind blew the car he was driving to the shoulder of Route 120 as he slowed for drifted snow on the road. Quinn went on to say he lost control of the auto, which struck a telephone pole. Another car-telephone pole collision occurred when Todd A. Hatch, of 3208 Fairway, McHenry, lost control of his auto on Curran road and ran into the pole. On Nelson road, a power pole was snapped after it was struck by a car. Lawrence W. Wood, of 8503 Coral, Wonder Lake, was driving east on Nelson and failed to negotiate a curve, ran off the road and hit the pole. Arlys E. Folz, of 1614 "Meadow lane, McHenry, was ticketed for improper lane usage after her car ran into another auto on Moraine Park road. Ms. Folz told police her car hit a rut and slid into the auto driven by Wayne E. Davis, of Car- pentersville. When Delia M. Burns, of 3711 Har^lin, McHenry, leaned over to shut the door of her car, she lost control of the vehicle, which ran into a guardrail on Route 120. Regarding an accident on Bull Valley road early Wednesday morning, the report said that a car driven by Timothy M. DeCraene, of 4618 Garden Quarter, McHenry, drove off the roadway and struck a tree "apparently due to the ice." A witness to the accident confirmed this report. Arrest Two For Near Crashes With Squad Cars Twice in the last week, Sheriff's police cars were almost hit by other vehicles. One driver was arrested and the other was ticketed. Last Friday, a car turned in front of a squad car and nearly caused a collision. When the officer stopped the other car, Deborah Gladman, 27, of 5300 Or­ chard drive, McHenry, was arrested for driving while intoxicated. Bond was set at $1,000. Last Saturday night, while changing lanes, an auto almost collided with a squad car. Bret Hoffman, 17, of 1718 Park lane, 'McHenry, was ticketed for driving without a valid license. An auto traveling erratically near Richmond piqued the interest of the Sheriff's police. Jeffrey Connerty, 22, of 3715 Claremont, and Vincent Maniscalco, 20, of 1208 Oakleaf, both of McHenry, were each cited for having Accept School Calendar The txMpd of Elementary School District 15 accepted the school calendar for the coming year as proposed by the Regional Superintendent of Education office at the regular meeting held last week. One vote was registered against the proposed calendar by Gary Lockwood, who did not indicate his reason. The 1980-81 schedule provides for a two-week Christmas vacation ex­ tending from Dec. 20 until classes begin Jan. 5. In addition, Easter vacation will start Saturday, April 11, with classes resuming April 20. If no snow days are used, school will conclude on June 3, otherwise it will extend to June 9. First classes will begin Wednesday, Aug. 27. Guidelines for the calendar, according to the regional superintendent, included the desire of most districts to keep the Christmas vacation as short as possible; to have Easter vacation during the week of Good Friday, and that unused snow days would be dropped at the aid of the school year; --r-- The board authorized William Landis, assistant s u p e r i n t e n d e n t f o r operations, to solicit proposals to survey the district buildings for Life- Safety code compliance. Landis noted that the Life- Safety work on the school buildings should be com­ pleted before the state in­ spection coming up soon. Parkland school, which is comparatively new, is probably in good condition. He suggested that they also investigate energy con­ servation as a part of the survey. Board member Dorothy Vick recommended that Landis secure at least three bids. Landis said he had no idea what the costs might be, and analyzing the different figures received would be difficult. They would have to depend on the ethics of the firms submitting proposals, he said. The energy package part of the proposals would be separate and optional, he thought, and is not part of Life-Safety work. In other business, the board adopted a policy revision governing the dissemination of information to children or patrons of the schools. The new policy specifies that authorization of the superintendent or his designee would be required before any announcements, advertisements, notices, informational statements, etc., be distributed. When board member Henry Nell asked if there would be a penalty to teachers if they violated this policy, Dr. Richard Farmer, district superintendent, explained that it would probably be a reprimand which would be placed in his personnel file. However, it would depend on the seriousness of the situation. If it was extreme, he in­ dicated it could be grounds for dismissal. • After approving payroll and related expenditures totalling $303,424 for the month of January, the board approved the employment of three persons: Marilyn Miller as a learning resource director at Hilltop school, Piero Capizzi as custodian at So says the VA...

UNDERSTANDING ALCOHOLISM a health column from the Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Administration U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare open liquor in a motor vehicle. According to the police report, a domestic dispute at 706 Nancy lane, McHenry, ended with the arrest of K e n n e t h W i t z , 2 1 , f o r disorderly conduct. Bond was set at $35. Thomas Krause, 18, of 3420 Weingart road, McHenry, B r u c e W a r d e l l , 1 9 , a n d Kenneth Gregory, 20, both of Fox Lake, were all cited for open liquor violations when t h e S h e r i f f ' s p o l i c e i n ­ vestigated the parked car. What Are (he Psychological Effects of Alcohol? Alcohol has a significant impact on human behavior, al­ tering sensorimotor processes and adversely affecting atten­ tion span, memory, concep­ tual processes, and emotions. Unsteady balance. stag-' gered walk, and slurred speech are probably the most obvious behavioral character­ istics of intoxicated people. Low doses of alcohol pro­ long the time required for recovery from glare, produc­ ing a period of relative blind­ ness. Alcohol also reduces the eye's ability to adopt to variations in light, and im­ pairs peripheral vision and vjsual search behavior. Such conditions are particularly hazardous to the intoxicated driver. Alcohol also affects per­ formance on tracking tasks that involve eye-hand coor­ dination such as. is required by drivers and pilots. Drinking impedes the abil­ ity of the brain to absorb in­ formation from more than one source simultaneously and decreases the capacity to switch from one source of information to another. Heavy doses of alcohol also affect the ability to process new information and recall it later. Sober alcoholics often dis­ play serious deficits in cog­ nitive functioning. A direct relationship has been demon­ strated between such deficits and the number of years of drinking. Recent evidence indicates that alcohol affects even the sober cognitive functioning of social drinkers. In a study of middle-class social drinkers, this effect was especially no­ ticeable among heavy drink­ ers, but it was also seen in light and moderate drinkers. Social drinkers have been shown to consume more al­ cohol in stressful situations where they feel their self- esteem is threatened, but studies on whether alcohol re­ lieves tension and anxiety in such drinkers have produced conflicting results. Among al- acoholics, men have been found to become more anx­ ious, depressed, and angry when drinking, but such ef­ fects have been seen less in women. Regarding the alcohol- aggression link, it has been shown that when male social drinkers are in a competitive group situation, interpersonal aggression increases consider­ ably. In other studies, persons who believed they had drunk alcohol acted more aggres­ sively than those who thought they had consumed a nonal­ coholic beverage, regardless of the actual contents of the drink. n's « rm! the Junior high, and Charles Weston as bus driver. Also accepted were two staff resignations, Joseph Delpino as custodian at Junior high and Gail Connors as teacher aide at Parkland. Mrs. Miller replaces Florence Foran, who is on a medical leave of absence, the board learned. The largest Catholic church in the United States and the seventh largest church in the world is the National Shrine of the Im­ maculate Conception in Washington, D.C. Built for the whole Catholic com­ munity of the U.S., its arch­ itecture, sculpture, win­ dows, inscriptions, mosaics, even its smallest ornaments, are primarily the fruit of American imagination, skill, contributions and devotion. Construction of the shrine became something of a leg­ end among construction workers because no lives were lost, and no serious accident occurred. Only the most skilled were hired, and ruo one was allowed to work when conditions became hazardous. It is estimated that work on the tower, where high winds posed spe­ cial danger, was stopped for one hour of every four. CHURCH OF CHRIST 401 N.

A Lenten Meditation For Forty days beginning with Ash Wednesday, the Christian Church intrudes its values on the secular world. The season is known as Lent. It is a period given to penitence and prayer. •" During this season, self evaluation becomes significant in the lives of the faithful. When measured by what we often are and by what^tfeOught to be, it gives us pause to reflect upon the nature of our fragmented selves. ' " • S ' Paul, the apostle, who was one of us, recognized the nature of his being when he said, "The good that I would I do not, but the evil that I would not, that I do." Often*, in life, we start off with high ideals only to see them broken along the road of life. In the refectory of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Milan, Italy, hangs a world famous pain­ ting. It represents a climactic event that took place towards the end of the period that we now know as Lent. It is "The Last Supper." Leonardo da Vinci is the famous artist who has given us this masterpiece. * Therejs an interesting story that is told about thi^painting. It has to do with the human experience in the lives of many people. In searching for models to pose for his master­ piece, da Vinci had little trouble finding models to pose for eleven of the disciples. The two who would portray Jesus and Judas Iscariot were not so easy to come by. One day while attending mass at the Cathedral of Milan, Leonardo saw a clean cut young man in the Cathedral choir and he realized that here was his model for the Christ. But his search for some one to represent Judas was difficult indeed. Some years later while walking down the side alleys of the city, he saw a sodden outcast lying in the gutter. At last he had found his Judas! When the man had sobered enough to converse, da Vinci invited him up to his studio. Explaining his purpose, he took the derelict to the wall on which "The Last Supper" was painted. As they looked at it the artist paused before the portrait of Jesus and said, Isn t his face beautiful". To which his tragic companion replied, "Yes it is, it was once mine." This is a story with a sad ending. But, in the context of Lent, we move beyond the tragedy of Judas Iscariot, and our need for penitence and renewal, to the triumphant event of Easter Sunday. Despite our failings, frustrations and despair, there is light at the end of the tunnel. In a confusing world seemingly filled with dire forbodings we may not easily resolve the problems of our planet, but, under God, we are able to put our own house in order. Perhaps this is the beginning of the solution to the larger problems. Pax vobiscum! Arthur M. Knudsen Alliance Bible Church 3815 W. Bull Valley Rd. Rev.
