MA: 20 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 15,1980 BIG CITY PROBLEM GOES RURAL... (Coniiiiued from p<jgv 1) more efficiently use available resources Ironically for McHenry, programs in art, p.e., music and home ec. were curtailed this year due to financial constraints just when they were needed for the non-speaking students, DeRoche noted. DeRoche listed the students whose presence in the community came to light at registration: six I^aotian chidren of the Bondasak family spon­ sored by the Zion Lutheran church and living with Mr. and Mrs Guettler, Pho age 5, O age 84. Bao age 94, Khame age 154, and twins, No and Ne 2 years and 2 months each; two Viet­ namese children of the Pham family sponsored by Marilyn Hamilton of Whispering Oaks, Nhu age 4 and Nhien almost 10; Chinese children Johnny Lee 10 and Betty Lee 13 living with Perry and Maxine Moy; and in kindergarten, three Spanish speaking children Patricia .Jaimes, Laura Rodriguez, and Lupe Martinez, and Polish speaking Anna Vehovsky A seventh grade Korean boy was to be enrolled at Parkland, but the school indicates that they have only minimal information about him to date. DeRoche said the four Laotian children who are eligible to attend school had not been admitted at that time, pending clearance of certain medical documents, and noted that theirs would probably be the greatest need. The family had spent over a year in a refugee camp in In d o c h i n a , w h i c h represented lost time for t h e c h i l d r e n educationally. Their problem was to merely survive, DeRoche said. DeRoche observed that the school was getting a hard lesson because it found itself in a difficult situation without the luxury of time to prepare or the knowledge of programs needed to meet it. He said schot>Lofficials need to be alerted when students witji^special requirements are about to enter the system He urged that churches, groups and individuals consult with school of­ ficials when they con­ template sponsoring needy families for entry into the community, before they make their decisions. In this way a coordinated effort can be organized to meet special needs and the schools and other public bodies in­ volved can avoid a duplication of services and costs. The results of a 1978-79 census of major non- English languages found in Illinois schools published in the Illinois Regional Resource center newsletter in October, 1979, show 7 percent of public enrollment af­ fected. Listed were totals; Spanish 91,056; Greek 5,783; Italian 5,090; Korean 3,850; Filipino 3,109; Polish 2,743; German 2,624; Serbo- Croation 2,177; Arabic 2,113; Cantonese-Chinese 1,831; other languages 17,267 for a total of 137,643. DeRoche noted that because of the area's proximity to Fort McCoy they were anticipating a possible influx of Cubans. And as possible assistance with the current problem, he pointed out the presence of a "large" Indochinese community in Elgin, up to 500 persons. ASSURE FUNDING FOR AREA SENIORS (Continued from pa<je D time to make an orderly transition to new grant sponsors. Rejection was made because the county council board felt funding for a two- month period would only compound its fiscal problems as well as continue the feeling of being in limbo felt by the senior citizens, staff, local funding sources and the board. The problem had its start recently wh^n it was discovered that federal tax withholding on employees, and Social Security money, had not been sent to the government as required. Gerrie Davis, ad­ ministrative assistant to Linn Olesen, interim executive director of the council, explained that the county council was told the Region II agency was not satisfied with its fiscal organization and wanted a complete reorganization. LOCATE MISSING BOAT WITH FIVE PASSENGERS (Continued from p<vi*' 11 tryside, McHenry, the boat was located aground with all passengers present. Riding in the boat were Joseph S. Dickstein, of McHenry; Robert Stein- berger, of Woodstock; Michael C. Poper, and his two children, Amy and Joshua, of Crystal Lake. No one was iryured.

BUDDY'S WORKSHOP Splash Blocks Will Direct Water Flow Water running down through the downspouts does not flow away from the house. After a hard rain, the concrete blocks in the basement feel damp. How do you direct the water flow away from the house? In time, water seeping into the ground or standing near build­ ings can damage the foundation and cause basement walls to become damp. Splash blocks, made for this purpose, can be purchased from masonry dealers. Position the splash blocks directly beneath each downspout. The blocks should extend at least three feet from the house and the grade should slope six inches in ten feet. The water will fall on the splash blocks and be directed away from the house. Over a period of time, the blocks may settle into the ground. Just remove the blocks, fill in the ground to its original level and replace the splash blocks. Proper positioning of the splash blocks should be checked at least twice a year. A good time to do this is when you inspect and clean the leaves and other debris from the gutters and downspouts. Our cement garage floor has transmission oil spots that are hard to remove. What is a good method to clean up this problem? Always remove oil stains as soon as possible. Lightweight lubri­ cating oils such as transmission fluid will penetrate deeply if allowed to remain for a period of time. Degreasing products sold at hardware and auto supply stores will remove most oil stains. (If you would lik* Buddy's Workshop on your particulor problem, writ* WORKSHOP. Box 639. Frankfort. Ky 40602.)

Stefka, of 5713 Meadow Hill, McHenry. In the Oct. 8 issue, it was inadvertantly reported that a car driven by Deborah Wenk, of 7711 Orchard, Wonder Lake, hit a car driven by Esther Gunderson, of 7003 McCullom Lake road, Wonder Lake, near the post office on Hancock drive.

Hold Discovery Weekend DISCOVERY WEEKEND PARTICIPANTS Over a recent weekend, Saint Paul's Episcopal church in McHenry held its first "Discovery Weekend". Forty people participated in the weekend of sharing, studying and fellowship. They were supported by many members of the parish family, who either cooked, baby sat, prayed, or otherwise freed the par­ ticipants from outside responsibilties. This enabled each candidate to fully experience the weekend activities and come to some understanding of what Christian community can mean in the lives of each member of the Body of Christ.
