PAGE It • PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. JUNE II, 1882 WESTERN MEDICINE GOES EAST (CwHwri from p«g> I) that the family is very involved in patient care. "There was no two-visitor-per- patient rule," Wilt said. "The family came a long way and brought their mats into the ward and sort of camped out with the patient. You never have to ask if anyone else is sick because they're all right there." There is a big effort to people to die at home, Wilt noted. Dying in the hospital, he said, is viewed as being not as good as dying at home. "It's a bit unusual, but I kind of like the attitude," Wilt said. "There may evert be different burial rites for someone who does not die st home." Wilt said most of the doctors worked from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the hospital and did not get paid very much. "They made between $200 and $400 a month," Wilt said. The doctors supplemented their in­ come by operating private clinics in the evenings. "That's where they make most of their money," he said. Wilt said that a lot of care and programs were aimed at the children. He noted that the Thais had no concept of transmission of a disease through parasites and said that a lot of work remained in the area of sanitation. "A lot of work needs to be done," he said. "The medical system is just not adequate to care for all." Most of the doctors are located in . the cities, according to Wilt, and many of the rural people never see a doctor. However, some people were trained and outfitted to practice a limited form of medicine in the rural areas of the country. "It was interesting because these people were incredibly poor by U.S. standards," WUt said. "You could put all of the clothing a family owned into one small suitcase." He added, however, that the , people seemed very content with what they had. "It made me reassess my values as far as just what was a necessity in life," WUt noted. A four-year medical student, Wilt plans to ..take one more year to finish medical school at the Chicago Medical center. Wilt was the only student in the College of Medicine to be awarded two scholarships. The Leon F. Moldavsky scholarship was awarded for excellence in physiology. The Bertram A. Richardson scholarship supports study programs abroad. Wilt said he is looking to complete his residency in in­ ternal medicine, perhaps with an emphasis in infectious diseases.

FIND MISSING McHENRY BOY marked the latest of a long line ef turbid meetings Sunday. "I absolutely draw the line at having some sucker call my house and scream at my 18-year-old daughter because the MPOA isn't doing exactly what they want," Mnr*tr Association President Ed Beard said. "Stay the hell away from my wife and kids." Craig Pfannkuche, Com- mitteman from Highland Shores subdivision, said be rneignail after six months of being eeantlslhai president due to that kind of ifrflghtkg. "I've maple would &I (Coefloood tun eogo t) Shay, director of ESDA, said today. Groups of five volunteers were set up to search for the boy. A bloodhound from the Lake County Sheriff's Department was used in the search and the state police helicopter also was called in. - « It was believed the boy, who until this morning was last seen about • m. Sunday, had left his home, where resides with his mother, and was heading for Sterling, where his father lives. The chUd's parents reportedly are separated and the family is new to the area, police said. GOVERNMENT VIEWS CONCERNS (Continued from |Mf» 1) Ms. Briscoe will describe the relationship between the housing authority and Nunda township, in whose name the grant application was filed.

LAMCOG Chairman Joaeph Longmeyer reports that the annual meeting program is a . "forward- looking agenda for action" that af­ fects thousands of residents in Lake and McHenry counties. "We are concerned for the quality of life in our area," Longmeyer says, "and we expect our annual meeting to reflect that concern." DAM PROJECT PLANS OKAYED (Continued from pm§» 1) something that has staved off the state of Illinois," he said Sunday. Threats of withholding dues and allegations of harrassing phone calls been wishing that peopie buried the hatchet yean and years ago," he said. He commented that after all the lawyers' opinions were considered and the arguing stopped concerning a park district/the issue was decided. "Now that we've voted on it, hat­ chets should be buried and the dam should be repeired. We deal too much in the past in this organisation," Pfannkuche said.

Many may have forgotten, but in 1871 an' archaoioglcal survey was begun in the county. Over several years time, professionals carefully collected and recorded the evidence of hundreds of sites in the county. These are updated at regular in­ tervals when new evidence Is found. There is now a tear that theae sitae may be loet Organised groupe like the are eager to aaeure that the story of how man Uved with nature for thousands of years before written history books existed, is not loot by a deetruction of many archaoioglcal sites. While these efforts are progressing on the local level, the state is inaugurating a program called "Windows to the Paat". Its purpose is to give color to the study of local history in schools through the use of county i-ecords dating back to 1818. The documents aren't about persons. Rather, they deecribe the daily lives of average dtlsene living in the state more than 100 years ago. They deal with widows, orphans, soldiers, the poor, and thooe more fortunate cltisens who owned property. They include topics such as elections, schools, war and poverty. "Windows to the Psst" were used in severs] schools this spring. After the classroom field teete, any neceesary revisions wUl be made prior to the project's statewide distribution next fall. Like aU other subjects, preservation can be carried too far. But it is our opinion that in recent years the ten­ dency to destroy, in the name of progreea, has taken from us many of the treasures of yesterday. kaf by Joenne Springman FATHER'S DAY SALE NATHAN HALE Pine Gun.Cabinet.

Crowds of protesters, speech- makers and guitar accompanists singing chants, folk songs and hymns "Where have aU the flowers gone?" Peace symbols and slogane on placarde hoisted by senior citizens, teen-agers, toddlers and parents pushing infanta in stroUers. ... "We shall overcome." A half-million people in Central Park, more than 100 on Woodstock Square and thousands of others gathered together in cities and country from California to the New York island ... "America, America, God shed His grace on thee ..." Not since Vietnam has America seen the likes of Saturday's nation­ wide marches by proponents of nuclear freeze, disarmament and negotiation. In Woodstock, where the last similar demonstration was organized by a group of young people in the early 1970s, about 135 people marched from City Park to the square park down­ town. The event was organized by a group of local citizens known as St. Mary's Peacemakers. Exhorting the crowd st City Park with words Jrom< peacemakers of the past, the Rev. James Tranel of St. Mary's Catholic Church and Sister Suzanne Patterson, principal of St. Mary's School, said: "The choice today is between non-violence and nonexistence," and "The time has come once again to beat swordi into plowshares and study war no more." Diane Chavez, of the Sinissippi Alliance for the Environment, detailed the environmental damage which a nucleer war would inflict and which, she said, would last "at least s couple of centuries." Marching behind a banner that proclaimed "The God of Peece Is Never Glorified by Human Violence," the group then took its campaign to Woodstock Square. During the journey, some of the marchers, who represented s variety of age groups and McHenry County communities, told this writer why they were participating. "I'm against all forms of nuclear weapons and nuclear energy, too," said Maureen Quantz of McHerny. "I'd like to see them all banned." Mark LaSarre of Woodstock said: "Something's got to be done, and it's got to be done now. Resgan's idee not to have a freeze because the Russians will have superiority ia just plain ridiculous." Gwen Nowicki, a youngster from Johns burg, said: "Because I don't want a nucleer war. You keep hearing about Hiroshima and all that stuff. It's scary." Chicago Man Drowns In Lake by Anthony OUver Efforts were continued Tuesday morning to locate and recover the body of a Chicago man, Suheil Khan, 20, who drowned Sunday afternoon in Cedar Lake, Lake Villa. According to Lake Villa Fire Chief Elmer Sheehan, the recovery efforts began at 7 a.m. Tuesday/following a day-and-a-half of inteneive search efforts by dive teams representing 28 different agenciee. "We have had just s tremendous turnout," Sheehan said, noting that dive teems from ss fsr as Forest Park and Kenosha county, Wis., joined the search efforts Monday. Aree participating in the search recovery operation included McHenry County Emergency Services and Disaster agency, Wonder Lake Fire Mned tne imc agencies dove it rch and and m McHenry V Th$ ces and Lake < department, Fox Lake Fire depart­ ment and Wauconda Fire department. Sheehan commented that the spot where the body was last seen was not designated very weU, which has hampered the recovery. He also pointed out that there are "some pretty deep holes" in the lake, some of which extend to 40 or 50 feet, where the body may have faUen. Sheehan said the dive teams worked Monday until darkness in their st- tempts to recover the body. "We don't like to have our divers in the water after dark," Sheehan said. According to Lake Villa Police Chief John Debevic, Khan had been in a boat with a young lady at about 3:50 p.m. Sunday, when an oar was lost in the water. Chief Debevic said Khan evidently dove into the water to retrieve the oer never surfaced. drowning occurred on Cedar off of Sherwood park, on Route 132 in Lake Villa.
