Hh GuwdS [iBB^iasa; Johnsburg High School nursing assistants, left, and other volunteers help "injured and handicapped" individuals off the bus into a mock shelter set up at Johnsburg High School. The mock disaster is a NUCLEAR ACCIDENT DRILL regular preparatory exercise by the McHenry County Emergency Services and Disaster Agency. (Continued from page 1) (Taylor) over there is (playing the part of) is a senile old man. Mirah (Middleton) is the one always yelling. She's playing the part of a screamer. "They basically gave us what to do and we ad-libbed. They didn't want us all having heart attacks." Those treating the thespians- County Red Cross volunteers, paramedics and Johnsburg High School nurse, Elaine Kee, and her eight student nursing assistants - also had to play their parts as convincingly as possible. "The nurses and the people working here are doing a good job," said Fleetwood Price, a particant from Great Lakes Naval Training Center, during the exercise. "There are a variety of different casualties here. I'm surprised by the many different problems the nurses have to take care of." "It's really crazy," said Zion- Benton player, Laura Voegtle, who could not shut off her tears even while momentarily breaking out of character. "It's weird seeing the nurses' ex pressions because they're my age and they know I'm nor mal... which is good because it reflects my acting ability." But the participants did not contribute their time to the drill for critical acclaim or to polish their egos. Their sole motivation was to help save lives. "You've got to try your it hardest if you're going to help someone, Crawford said. "You've got to think what would happen if the Zion nuclear power plant actually does have an emergency...I live two miles from it. The 'senile old man' lives three blocks from it." At 1:30 p.m., the drill was called to a halt, and everyone seemed satisified with the results. "We've got documented evidence that it helps," Shay said. "Although we've never had a major disaster (such as whole cities having to be evacuated) we did have the Air Force plane that crashed in Wonder Lake three years ago. There were 27 bodies, and when it occurred, all our operations went in place. Everything went the way it should have." fagWVHS ""^VIDEO RECORDERS I A NOW VR3010 AA "V . .
