Prairie Central used a mixed bag of tricks to pound their Dwight Trojan opponents by a whopping 105-31 » open the Hawk Classic tournament Monday night

From stunning offense to killer defense, including 27 steals, 46 rebounds and even a blocked shot, the Hawks put together a dazzling show for the Prairie Central fans. The win brings the Hawks to 10-0 this season, just one victory shy of the 11-0 start the 1985 Prairie Central boy's basketball team jumped to before being defeated in a Hawk Classic Tournament

During the early minutes of the first quarter, the Hawks actually started the g n e off slow offensively. But when the score stood at 7-5 in favor of Prairie Central for nearly a minute, the Hawks simply broke the game wide open.

Though the 105 points the Hawks scared wasn't the most a Prairie Central

team has scored in a game, it did break a tournament record of % points. The victory fell short of a 112-80 romp the Hawks dealt Odell on Dec. 12,1985.

For Prairie Central coach Charles Strasburger, breaking the tournament record for the most points during a contest was just a feather in the team's cap. Besting the 11-0 start the Hawks jumped to in 1985 is what the team really has in its sights.

That's the one I'm shooting for Fll tell you that right now," Strasburger commented after the game. He added though, that the Hawks will just have to lake one game at a lime to keep their streak alive.

Judging from the individual scoring statistics, Dwight coach John Dolan was left wondering whether or not Strasburger actually had 10 starters in his lineup. With Strasburger substituting players throughout the game, five players cored double-digits figures.

They could have started any one of 10 players," Dolan said of Strasburger's battery of Hawks.

Phil Tetly and Kevin Kafer, most often used as substitutes, scored 14 and 13 points apiece, respectively.

Other substitutes, including Darin Bazzell with eight points and John Pica with six points, contributed to the Hawks' effort

Guard Gary Tidwell led the team with 15 points.

After the rather slow start during the game's early moments, the Hawks eventually jumped to a 25-12 lead at the end of the first quarter.

Defensively, the Hawks just hammered Dwight. During the second quarter, the Hawks held their opponent to? just six points, and in the third quarter,/ Dwight scored only four.

"I thought the defense was beusr than* the offense myself," Suasburger said.

The tough man-to-man defense Prairie Central employed during the game almost constantly forced turnovers by Dwight While the Hawks had just 14 turnovers, the Trojans more than doubled their opponent's statistic by giving up 33.

Prairie Central owned the boards during the game, as the team had 25 offensive rebounds and 21 defensive rebounds. Dwight had just seven of each.

At the end of the third quarter, the Hawks had a 78-22 lead, and since the team was on a pace to break the century mask. Prairie Central fans were as keyed up as ever.

The fans knew that the Hawks would break 100 when Justin Cox gave the Hawks their 99th point by scoring on a breakaway layup. Soon afterward, another Dwight turnover and another Prairie Central layup ended the speculation when Kafer boosted the point total to 101.

Following a fteethrow, Tetley dealt the final blow with a three pointer with no time left on the clock, ending the game at 105-31.

Tonight's (Tuesday) game against Mahomet-Seymour will be an entirely new ballgame for the Hawks, and Monday's victory will simply be left as a past event, according to Suasburger. Though Prairie central soundly defeated Mahomet-Seymour earlier in the season during a Thanksgiving tournament, the Hawks will have to be as tough as ever to fiukh the night with a win.

Celebrating the completion o f an expansion project which has been under­way for almost a year, Dave's Supermarket in Fairbury will hold a "Grand Opening" sale starting today in Fairbury.

Details are contained in a 20-page tabloid special section carried in all 11 of the Com belt Press newspapers today, and to be followed by a 12-page special sec­tion next week.

The "Grand Opening’ title is some­what of a misnomer, since the store has been on the same comer for 38 yean, and this latest construction project, which added 8,000 square feet, is the fifth major expansion since Dave and Emmy Lou Steffen first opened for business at the comer of Third and Walnut streets on June 1,1950.

At that lime they occupied about 4,500 square feet, Steffen recalls. Today the store covers almost 30,000 square feet, an increase of about 700%.

When they started, in addition to Dave and Emmy Lou, they had three employ­ees: "Janet Householder was the after school and Saturday checkout girl; Ronnie Schultz was the carryout boy and Tom Vermilyea was the butcher" Steffen recalls.

By 1980, when they held their last "Grand Opening’ to celebrate an expan­sion which doubled their floor space, their list of employees had grown to 53.

Today the store employs 116!One wag suggested they had to

expand this last time just to make room for the employees!

Actually, the expansion provides a greatly expanded Deli department, and the addition of a bakery. The produce section has also been expanded, the fresh meats repositioned; new dairy cases are loaded from the rear, reducing congestion; and the customer service desk relocated adja­cent to the front door, the latter handles bottle returns and also has an express checkout for eight or fewer items. Also added is a ninth checkout lane.

In their 1980 expansion, two houses were moved to provide the construction space. This time, a house across the street

was moved to provide more parking space, a d one of Fakbnry's oldest bad­ness buildings, a long-time site of farm implement firms, was drsnoliAnd to pro­vide parking space which had been swal­lowed up by the latest building.

The addition also has two depressed truck bays which expedite oaloaring pal- leu of merchandise. And aew shelving m the stock room permits stacking cartons 30 feet high.

The 38 years of the Steffens' operation in Fairbury have seen a revolution in retailing, particularly at the grocery level.

"When we opened," Dave remembers, "there were 10 grocery stores in Fairbury, and we were the 11th!"

Among them were Kroger's, the. Atlantic and Pacific Tbs Co., Cox s IOff? Walton's Department Store, the Oak S t Market, "Little Joe’s", the Fairbury Locker, Parkview Rabe's, Harper's and Ike Kilgus.

Steffen just retired serving 10 years on the board of Certified Grocers, a Chicago- based buying concern representing almost 600 independent stores in the five stales, of Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan and

A -

He is now in his seventh year as a director of Illinois Food Retailers.

Steffen's father for 11 years was employed by Kerber Packing Co. in South Elgin. His brother is a butcher with Gromer's ip Elgin, one of the su te ’s largest grocers.

Now the Steffens are third-generation provisioned, for all four of their children are involved in the store, and have tlso added a couple of "in-iaws" in tiro process.

Sons Alan, Mark and Tlrien, and daughter Vicld, are all involved in a dif­ferent department. Altai ia produce, Ma^ in dry groceries. Brian just moved from meats to be manager of the dairy depart­ment; and Vicki, who is graduate none but seems to like bookkeeping and order­ing better. In addition, Mark's wife, the former Kanda Knapp, is in the office, and Vicki's husband, Dave Zehr of Flanagan, an Angus cattleman, thus blends food pro­duction and marketing as he works in the produce department.

The time has come to kiss another year 90 kmg-and this week I am writing About something that 1 have been storing up for awhile.

You see, I like history, particularly American history. I don't run around memorizing a lot of material, but I like to read history and to think about events.

A couple of years ago, I began playing around with the following question:

During the span of my own life, what year do I view as perhaps being the most important so Ear as having major bearing on my personal life?

I have to insert a qualification here- by personal life, I mean my value structure, my philosophy of existence, and my atti­tudes about what the world is all about.

When I plug in all of that, I am unable to answer the question as easily as saying "The year I got married" or "The year I fin­ished college.”

1 have to go looking for a watershed-a time that, when I gaze back at it, I see things as having gone a different direction because of what happened during that year.

If you have followed me to this point, you are more than ready for my nomina­tion of THE year.

1 pick 1955.Now, before 1 begin whipping through

the reasons, I have one qualification to pul on the remainder of this column:

What I am about to tell you is what 1 carry around with me in my head. I did not pick 1955 and run to old boolcs and newspapers for fodder for this composi­tion. What I say here is a combination of history some of you know (events outside myself) and history none of you know (events inside myself).

In the winter of 1954-55,1 was second- largest boy in our class. At 5'10" and 140, I was beginning to develop a pres­ence. But by May, I was losing weight rapidly because of a growth in my neck. In August I was operated on, and when I started my freshman year, I was down to 95 pounds. I didn't get back to 140 for 10 years. How big might I have grown with­out the illness? I will never know. How successful might I have been m sports had I felt like playing? I will never know. I will confess this to you: Part of the rea­son 1 like to cover sports for the local pa- pe. now is that it is a way (a small way) of maintaining touch with a sports interest that I had as a teen but which didn't get tapped back then.

In May, about the lime I was beginning to feel lousy, I was looking forward to the 1955 Indy 500. Bill Vukovich had won Indianapolis the two years before that, and with no one ever having won three times in a row, I was "hot" to have Billy come in first and do something nobody else had ever-done.

Instead, Billy got killed in that race while leading-and I had my first big con­frontation with what it means to gel erased from this world. How could Billy have died? How could that happen when he was on his way to the biggest win of his racing career? I wrestled with that one a lot in 1955-and for the years since then, too. The mortality of mankind is a tough concept for us all, and I got a biller taste of that when Billy died.

The summer of 1955 came and went, my operation was a success, and school started.

The week alter we became freshmen, my class had a party at a farm outside Roberts. 1 recall the bonfire—and the girls. When darkness fell, we decided to

play hide-and-seek in pairs, with one boy and one girl to a pair-just like in the biol­ogy books. Then everybody hid-and nob- body came hunting for us. Standing in a cornfield at night with a young lady cer­tainly did a lot to improve my perspec­tives about life.

Within a week, I found out about a Chicago radio station that played evening DJ stuff, with Saxie Dowell on the mike. My mother thought I had gotten sick again. Instead of ripping around all night,I took to bedding down early, turning on Dowell, and tuning up. The street light at the comer was illumination enough for me to stare away, drifting away on a tide of ballads-and rock.

I don't recall what Elvis stuff was bouncing-around at that time, but I do know that I had heard of Presley before 1955 was over. "Mystery Train" was a biggie of his about then-and I still nomi­nate that tune as perhaps the most sym­bolic of the early, vintage Elvis.

It got to be big stuff to gather in study hall at school and talk about the i;;w mu­sic-and that gave me more opportunity to talk to girls. After all, when you have something particular and specific to bring up, it makes legitimate conversation a lot easier to generate and maintain.

Before September was over, several of us got into the habit of meeting under a street light in front of the school to hash over whatever came to mind.

And that bungs me to Oct. 1, 1955.That evening, we were under the light,

as usual.We were talking about movies, and I

mentioned about how 1 wanted the folkas to lake me to "Rebel Without a Cause" as soon as it came around.

"1 really like James Dean," I said.

"Didn't you hear the news today?" one of the girls asked. "He got killed in a wreck yesterday."

Indeed, Dean had been killed-while on the way to a sports car race in California, he had plowed into another car on the highway.

More than 30 years later, if you were to rummage through my bedside bookstand, you would find more than one biography of James Dean. Can I tell you why he re­mains important to me? No-I can't get it into words. All I know is that what he left behind as of Sept.-30, 1955 keeps trailing around in my mind, surfacing now and then in a column, a conversation, or a glance at one of the books about him.

1955 came and went.During that' year, I graduated from

eighth grade, heard my favorite race car driver get killed, watched my body wither away, stood in a cornfield at night with a girl, listened to music, visited with young ladies, and found out my favorite actor had been smashed out of existence at the age of 24.

Was I unhappy about Vukovich and Dean? Was I sad about needing an opera­tion? Did I feel insecure as a lowly fresh­man? Did I find it hard to talk to girls-or to anyone? Did I understand the emotional messages being sent in the rock songs I soaked up?

I really didn't accept very much of what happened around me in 1955. Later, I be­gan to see the light on how much that year had shaped me as an adult-and that il­lumination will provide seed for several columns in the months ahead.

Happy New Ycar-and 1 really hope it is a happy one for you.

B a it -c u t t in g t im e n e a r s fo r Lena RichW Lena E. Rich, 78. of Pontiac, dk

p ru d e n t S E L C A S fu n d sLena E. Rich. 78, of Pontiac, died at

II a.m. Wednesday, Dec. 21, 1988 at Carte Foundation hospital, Urbana.

Her graveside funeral was at 10:30 a.m. Saturday at Oak Ridge cemetery, Farmington.

It was 16 years ago this week that the communities of Fairbury, Forrest and Chatsworth, plus the surrounding rural territory, were grappling with a real problem. They were just days short of the Jan. 1, 1973 deadline when practically all of the funeral homes in the state were going to discontinue ambulance service.

And it was during this week of 1972 that it appeared a solution for this area was in the works, and the three local funeral homes agreed to a 30-day reprieve of their deci­sion That, in turn, was based on a Labor department ruling that personnel, on call for an ambulance, had to be paid on an around-the-clock basis.

So this week marks the 16th anniversary of South East Livingston County Ambulance Service as far as agreement by the affected municipalities is concerned, and 30 or so days later, the SELCAS organization began taking calls on Feb. 1, handling 22 calls that first month. Today they regu­larly handle about 40 calls per month, or approximately 500 per year..

necessary to keep ambulances running in eight townships around Watseka," according to officials of Iroquois Memorial hospital.

As related in a story in the Kankakee Daily Journal for Nov. 30. "That means the eight townships and the City of Watseka who finance "Township Eight Ambulance Service" will have to double their current payments for the hospital to operate the city-owned service.

"Hospital administrator Dalla Larson also said that $177,000 is needed to provide a building for the ambu­lances and a new ambulance".

All this developed at a Nov. 29 meeting in Watseka at which city and township officials expected to hear a pro­posal from the hospital to buy the service from the city. Since 1982, the City of Watseka has owned the service and Iroquois hospital has operated it.

But instead of an offer to buy, officials heard that their ambulance service was in the red to the tune of $105,000 and Iroquois hospital will no longer subsidize it.

i ne SELCAS concept has been successful for one pri­mary reason, co-operation. The city and village and town­ship authorities of the area encompassed by its very name, plus some fringes from McLean county voluntarily agreed to provide supplementary funding beyond what was raised by service charges.

And just as importantly, a community-minded group of people was recruited who agreed to take the intensive 90- hour Emergency Medical Technician-Ambulance training course, and to volunteer to be on call in designated seg­ments of the day.

We call them "community-minded" because they get $3 each time they volunteer to be on call, in crews of three, for a six-hour segment of the day, in periods which begin at midnight, 6 a.m., noon and 6 p.m.

In the 16 years which have passed, SELCAS has replaced two of its original three ambulances, and now has three which have Trauma level rating plus a stand-by, and has erected a first class facility to house them on the grounds of Fairbury hospital, from where they are radio-dis­patched. The volunteer staff, which currently numbers 33, is equipped with pagers to expedite their response.

After depreciation, its current assets amount to almost $ 1 2 8 ,0 0 0 .

Originally, the cities, villages and townships agreed to make an annual contribution of $1 per capita, per year. Later this was raised to $2 per capita annually to cope with inflation.

All of this is particularly important in the light of a news story out of nearby Iroquois county latest month, where it was revealed that "Subsidies of $96,<J00 per year will be

One township supervisor was quoted as saying "We were living in a dream world", referring to monthly financial statements showing the service was getting along well. They reportedly showed only direct operating expenses, not any overhead.

A change in hospital management brought the problem to the surface. Since 1982, Watseka has paid 45% of the costs, and the eight townships, 65%. Now their assess­ments will more than double, ranging from $4,800 to $11,520, and Watseka will have to pay $42,000.

They have 11 full-time EMTs and 11 part-time EMTs and operate two city-owned ambulances and a back-up van from the fire department.

In contrast, SELCAS, in addition to its patient charges, is funded with about $20,000 annually from five municipali-

' ties and 10 townships Those payments at $2 per capita, range from a low of $288 by the Village of Strawn to a high of $7,100 by the City of Fairbury.

That was augmented two years ago with a public fund drive which raised about $60,000 and which has been used to purchase two ambulances.

For 16 years, and presently, SELCAS has been in the black, but currently just squeaking by because the source of funding by the local government bodies, Federal Revenue Sharing, is a thing of the past. Officials are cur­rently squeezing their contributions out of their general fund, a practice about which some of them are less than enthusiastic.

The Illinois statutes provide that municipal authorities, and/or lire districts may seek by referendum authority to levy a tax for ambulance services. The protection offered the area by the SELCAS volunteers, at $13 per shift, is a bargain.

That's the primary reason we're not faced with a $100,000 deficit like Watseka. But with Revenue Sharing gone, it's time for the SELCAS area to take a serious look at other sources.

Asian quake rocks ’cradleof Armenian Christianity’By Janet Freadhoff

The earthquake that rocked Armenia on Dec. 7 has been very distressing to Carol Zimmerman, manager of Adventure Tours and Travel's Fairbury office.

”1 have great compassion for the Russian people because of the trials and tribulations they have endured. They've always suffered," she says.

In 1983, Mrs. Zimmerman toured central Asia for three weeks. One of the spots she visited was Yerevan, said to be hardest hit by the quake which may have had 50,000 victims.

Yerevan is one of the oldest cities in the Soviet Union as well as one of the most attractive, she commented this week. The Ararat Valley in the quake zone con­tains the sacred village of Echmiadzin described as the "cradle of Armenian Christianity and worldwide scat of Armenian Catholics in the travel materi­als.

There, Carol saw one of the oldest existing Christian cathedrals founded by St. Greeorv in 303 A.D.

Another sightseeing attraction was the Gcgard Cathedral and monastery, where she saw the people bring chickens and sheep to be blessed, then taken home to be prepared for their meal.

She witnessed an infant baptism where the naked baby was submersed in water, then covered with an oil and wrapped in a blanket.

One man spent his entire life carving the Gcgard Monastery out of the rock.

She spent hours at Yerevan's histori­cal museum and national gallery looking at "old” wooden carts, historic clothing and many other Armenian artifacts dating back to the 1st Century.

The area hospitality, she recalls, was superb everywhere she traveled. For example, she tells how a person from Intourist, the only travel agency in the Soviet Union, met her at the train station, secured her luggage and called a taxi to go to the hotel. Then at the hotel, she would check her in. She would act as a guide as well as an interpreter. The same thing hap­pened everywhere she traveled.

Mrs. Zimmerman noted that, "I did not wear much makeup while traveling. I wore simple cotton dresses to try to blendU ■ ^ . i in with the Russian people." v I w

But it was her hairstyle and the quali­ty of the cotton that made her recogniz­able as an American.

As she flew over the Ararat Mountains, she could see the towns in the valleys below. Now she envisions t h c £ towns covered with rock and fallen build­ings.

Because of their strong faith and strong wills, Mrs. Zimmerman feels the Armenians will survive and rebuild. But these are anxious times for people who have relatives in the area of the earth­quake. There is no way of getting any information about survivors at this time. _ "And who knows how long it will befo re^ they receive any word," she laments.

CAROL ZIMMERMAN looks at one of the slides she took in Armenia on a 1983 tour as she rellects on the latest of the tragedies to befall the area-the Dec 7 earthquake

that killed thousands ana causea millions of dollars in dam­ages.

After seven years, Chatsworth will again have a full lime doctor. Dr. George Chen has signed ihc lease and soon will be establishing an office practice here. It was 1971 that Dr. Maugcr left on his trip to Africa. Since that time Chatsworth has not had a full time doctor. Since July 1976, when he left the medical center perma­nently, Chatsworth has had no doctor until late this spring when Dr. Sccoquian set up a practice here on a two-day a week basis.

Officers for the Drift-Splitters arc: Sharon Hobart, secretary; Dale Gillette, president; Richard Dawson, treasurer; Father C.E. Karl, reporter; and Clctus Watson, vice-president.

H.L.P.S. - ChaLsworth has gone through a scries of school songs. At first, like many schools, they set their own words to University of Illinois loyally song. Supt McCulloch frowned upon this idea and said we should have our own song. So wc had a song writing contest with prizes. Adclc Raboin and Carl Kyburz were prize winners, but another set of words was handed in anonymously. It was not by a student, was not competing for a prize, but the commitcc liked it the best of any hand­ed in. It was thought to have been con­tributed by a recent alumnus. Bill Pearson. Years later, wc asked him about it. Music was written for this by Roland Truitt, music teacher, but the tunc was difficult to sing and only a couple of people ever learned to play it. Several years later Mrs. Carol Burt, another music teacher, wrote a song for Chatsworth, but it never really caught on.

Then came a couple of peppy cheer­leaders, Betty Jo Sims and Milly Finefield. They heard a lively tunc, "Washington and Lee Swing," they liked it and wrote some words for it. Immediately that song provided popular with the stu­dent body and eventually became the "Bluebird Song".

How did Chatsworth gets its emblem? The colors were orange and blue, but the school had no emblem until about 1940. Mr. Kiblcr asked students to suggest something, The biology class had been identifying birds, and on the list was the

John Arthur Curtis was ordained Sunday in a impressive ceremony at the Meadow Lane Baptist church in Hammond, Ind. The new minister's father is Rev. Harley L. Curtis, pastor of the First Baptist church in Darlington, Wis.

The PTA Carnival held Saturday could easily be labeled a success with approximately S600 marked as profit for the organization. One of the most unusual features of the evening was the skill game that was under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Masao Takasaki. Anyone could try their luck at picking up small objects with

chopsticks provided in the oriental style. Probably the most populated place for the evening was the jail where some of the most respectable citizens could be found behind bars. Other features were a cake walk, country store, sock hop, games and bean guessing contest.

It was neces­sary i'i have a coffin made to order for his burial. It was seven feet long, 24 inches wide and 17 inches deep.

Dealers claim that there is going to be a great scarcity of Christmas trees this year on account of the extensive forest fires during the fall.

The fall of 1908 will go down in his­tory as one of the finest falls in the memo­ries of most residents.

The Prairie Central wrestling team fell on hard times last Tuesday when it dropped a double dual meet to LeRoy and Hoopcston-East Lynn.

Adding salt to the Hawks' wounds was the fact that the team lost to LeRoy by just one point. Prairie Central lost to Lc- Roy 36-35 and Hoopeston-East Lynn 53-

In Strawn a persistent and characteris­tic individual of the term "tramp" struck the town and forthwith commenced a house-to-house canvass for cold victuals.

The boys at the tile factory celebrated the prospective election of Harrison by blowing the whistle last evening until the good people of our little village supposed the factory was on fire, and several ran out in the rain and mud.

According to Pontiac Police Sergeant Don Schlosser, last Wednesday night's appearance of Ku Klux Klansmcn dressed in white robes and high pointed hats is the First public Klan activity anywhere in Illinois for more than a year. This infor- • mation was obtained through the statewide police information network, he said.

Schlosser said the six Klan members were handing out copies of their national newspaper. The K Ians man, at the comer of Howard and Ladd streets between 7:30 and 8 p.m.

He said the men identified themselves when asked and "there was no problem". Two of the men lire from the Pontiac area, while the others reportedly were from Indiana.

Both Schlosser and Livingston county

Sheriff Don Wall said their police depart­ments arc not aware of any organized KKK activity in the county.

The Ku Klux Klan is a white supremacist group first formed as a social club in Pulaski, Tenn., after the Civil War. A Congressional investigation in 1921 found no grounds to prosecute the Klan for alleged corruption. That same year. President Warren G. Harding look the oath, joining the Ku Klux Klan, as he knelt on the floor of the Green Room of the White House and used the White House bible.

Some, more recent .public activity by Klavcms has been the protesting of gay rights, such as their march in Houston in January, 1985.

The Illinois state record for hybrid striped bass was broken at Heidccke Lake, in Grundy county on OcL 7.

The new record fish was taken by Fred Welter, Glenview, using a Rapala- Shad lure.

The new record-holding fish tipped the scales at 16 pounds, 9.92 ounces, and measured 29 inches in length with a 24- inch girth.

The old record of 15 pounds, 10.4 ounces was held by Richard McLaughlin, Minooka. He caught his record Fish at Heidecke Lake on July 1,1988.

Tissue samples are now checked on all Illinois state record Fish to ensure they are the correct species, which accounts for the delay in announcing the new record.

’...thoughts that breathe...'

a n d g a s p a n d w h e e z e !

By Judy Knauer

Marian Migraine had invited a few of us over to share some holiday warmth.

It was three days after Christinas and three before New Year's Eve.

The black poodle. Bootsy, (the one she had dropped off near Kathy Smart's rural home and later retrieved) had knocked over Marian's artificial Christmas tree twice since we'd arrived.

Besides that entertainment, Marian was serving hard, stale Christmas cookies with a new punch recipe she was trying on us before offering it to more important guests at her New Year's Eve party. It was green and smelled like boiled Christmas trees.

"Marian!"

"Yes?"

1 had started to tell her that Bootsy had a leg up to her tree, but now it was too late. "Uh, have-have you made your list of New Year's resolutions yet?"

"Of course, dummy. 1 always write the thing during the office party. Watching everybody make fools of themselves gives me inspiration."

"What kind of inspiration did I give you?" Asked the cool, sophisticated Cindy, one of Marian's co-workers, sitting pretty in a white knit slinky thing.

Marian picked through the dish of sugar cookies until she came up with a Santa, chomped its head off and plopped back into her Queen Anne chair while she answered Cindy.

"That’s easy. The first thing on my list is in 8 9 1 ain't takin’ no crap off anybody."

"Marian!" Three of us chorused.

Actually, I didn't see that this was anything different from the way Marian was in *88,87, or '49 for that matter.

"I suppose second on your list is dropping 30 ugly pounds of fat," remarked Cindy, whose cool now sounded like ice.

Marian looked at Cindy and broke off one of Santa's legs.

A couple of the girls squirmed uneasily.

1 sat ready to take notes (How else do you think history is recorded? Somebody has to be ready at all times.)

Marian sucked in her stomach."For your information, my husband

says he likes to find something to get ahold of when he hugs me." She looked down her nose at Cindy and popped the Santa leg into her mouth.

Cindy took 3 big gulp of her green punch then leaned back and nonchalantly balanced the crystal in her fingertips. "Well flay husband always says 'the closer to the bone, the sweeter the...aaaah!"

At hearing the word 'bone', Bootsy had sprung out of nowhere directly into Cindy's white, slinky lap.

I took mental notes as the green punch arched out of the glass, striking Cindy's left cheek, wave of red hair (which immediately turned brown) her neck and left bodice.

Bootsy wasted no time in licking the dribbles off Cindy's neck, even as the woman screamed and sat gripping the arms of the chair, her body stiff against

the chair back in a useless attempt to escape.

It took two of us to pull the poodle off Cindy's throat.

It took three of us to pull Cindy off Marian's.

It was the fust time I could rememK r no one saying, "Well I'w .i in -.m in n.c library. I've got an o- cnlu.- i •• • ■» '•« <»they wanted to leave one of Marian s parties.

Silly me; I stayed on to help clean up.Marian was laughing to herself,

sounding like a conniving Vincent Price. She was cleaning the green punch out of the brocade chair with a wet cloth in one hand and petting Bootsy with the other.

"Cindy will never know what wassecond on my list of New Year's resolutions," Marian said in a demonic tone.

"What is second?”

"That I promise never to get rid of Bootsy. Good dog!"

It would be interesting to hear the rest of Marian's resolutions. It was also scary. She was already sticking to her first one.

'89 ou|ghta be a humdinger!

The world as seen by Russ Metz

The Soviet daily Isvestia will begin running advertisement in its Tuesday edi­tion in January, according to a report by Advertising Age.

The effort is a joint venture with the West German publishing company Burda Verlag, which will act as worldwide sales representative. Profits are to be divided - 60 percent to Isvestia and 40 percent to Burda.

Ad revenues from the Isvestia deal are expected to be about S2.5 million the first year. A black and while page costs $50,000 and each additional color on the page will cost $12^00.

Ads which violate the ’political, moral, ethical, or ethnic standards of the Soviet Union will not be accepted nor ads from tobacco, spirits or pharmaceutical companies,’ an Isvestia official told Advertising Age.

About all that leaves to advertising in that Red newspaper is cabbage soup and • baggy britches. A Russian talking on tele­vision the other night said that in the Soviet Union, you stand in line from birth to death, so maybe a company coold advertise its line from birth to death, so maybe a company could advertise its lines are shorter than its competitor's, or that the KGB has not grabbed anyone out of

its line for a vacation in Siberia in more than a week.

Because the Russians are known for their honesty , there will be no need for a truth-in-advertising law, but it really does­n't matter. The experiment is not likely to be a success anyway. Not without the Big Ps: Pampers, Pall Malls and Panther Juiqe.

-RM--Right-on-red which look the nation

by storm in the mid-70s was supposed to save us gas and relieve traffic congestion. No doubt it has. But what its also done is create the driving habits of a banana republic.

It's legitimized flouting of the traffic laws. It's opened the floodgates. If it's OK for me lo make up my own mind on right on red, why can't I do it for the left mm signal? or a stop sign? or a stop light?

This do-your-own-thing approach to driving doesn't work. Clearly we can't be trusted. We're all out there acting as inde­pendent agents, picking and choosing which traffic laws well obey.

Remember the old days when people used to stop for red lights? If you're from the old school and stop when you see the light turn yellow you risk finding the guy behind you in your truck. I think right-on- red has produced even more careless driv­

ing. And 1 am careless enough without it -RM--

For many people who pride them­selves on having a perfect memory - as I remember, I used to be one of those peo­ple - there ultimately comes a day when that perfection is marred.

The flaw is they begin to forget. Or, to more precise, I have begun to forget so many things I can't remember what all of them are.

I think I remember correctly that my No. 1 son gave me a memo pad to jot down things I might forget. Recently, it has become my security blanket. Every day I make a list of everything I am sup­posed to do. Included on the list is to make a list. I carry it with me wherever I go. Often, I am so busy keeping my list I don't have time to do the things on it. But at least it’s not because I forget them.

My children were talking about this not so long ago, discussing my memory lapses. They had a long discussion about whether or not I was losing my mind. I think they finally decided 1 must be get­ting senile - but I can't remember.

-R M -One town character who figures

prominently in tales told about my home community was quite an athlete in his yoimg days, I remember.

At 20, he could run Easter, jump far­ther, land harder, grunt louder and sweat more than anyone in our Southern Indiana town.

One day he thought he was late for the ferry across the Ohio River. When he reached the river, the boat was out in the water but still fairly near the bank.

He look off like a turpentined cat, ran faster than a speeding bullet, jumped 23 feet and landed in the middle of the ferry, nearly killing himself and the ferry opera­tor;

The operator was mad as a hornet and threatened to throw the fellow overboard. He yelled:

"You didn't have to do that We were coming in!"

-RM-

Mensa, the highbrow organization that accepts for membershn only those applicants who score in the unper 98 per­centile on I.Q. tests, is an inviting target for parodists. I was rejected because I once got a 99 with a Latin pony and another time scored a perfect 100 in phys­ical education because I was the only boy strong enough to hold up all those others in a pyramid.

Anyway, 1 heard of a Canada-based organization "which may be in competi­tion with Mensa."

It is called "Densa." It’s for "airheads rather than eggheads," I’m told. And for a $10 annual fee members receive a button with a turkey on it, a monthly newsletter, and a chance to nominate die recipient of the organization's yearly award far stupid­ity. The winner receives a live gobbler.

Can a person belong to both clubs at the same time? Why not?

Onward, upward.

Traditions Around-the-World

THE CITIZEN - WEEK OF DECEMBER 26, 1988 - PAGE THREEJ f f O S t X

By Judy KnauerCelebrations observing the passing of

the old year and beginning of the new are as varied in custom as the people who observe them. For some there is raucous celebration, hurtful regret and still others view the New Year with hope.

According to Funk and Wagnalls Standard Dictionary of Folklore, Mythology and Legend, it was Julius Caesar who revised the calendar in 46 B.C. and made January the first month. It came immediately after a "period of license and great rejoicing called the Saturnalia."

The Christians opposed this. Tertullian, the Christian historian, it is said, deplored it. The Council of Auxerre condemned it as diabolical, and the Council of Tours required prayers and mass penance on New Year's Day, which it said was "a practice long in use.”

Dances were forbidden, and crimes were to be immediately compensated for by fasting.

In ancient Europe, New Year’s Day was held in March or at Christmas or other dates, even after the reforms of Julius Caesar in Rome.

Most of Europe, except Russia, made the change to January 1 soon after the Gregorian calendar reform in the 16th century. .

Scotland accepted the date in 1600.

It took England until 1752 to incorporate the change.

Elsewhere the first day of the year is a movable feast according to our present system of reckoning the months.

The Jewish calendar, on a luni-solar basis, has movable feasts.

In China, the first few days of the New Year are the only days celebrated as universal festivals. All stores close and even the poorest Chinese leaves work to be with his family for a few days.

At this time also, families which have subsisted throughout the year on a lowly diet of parched grain, try to add a little meat.

The household gods who have been away doing their various duties connected with the ending of the old year, return to the home and join the reunion.

The head of the household, having paid all his debts before midnight, takes the opportunity to plan his new debts.

Door posters and religious proverbs are cordial invitations for the Gods of Wealth and Babies to visit a house Q£ warn away evil spirits.V

Japanese customs are somewhat similar. In both countries, according to Funk A Wagnall, New Year's Day is everybody's birthday.

On this day, special foods are a custom. The Japanese offer a "male" cake to the sun and a "female" cake to the moon.

In India, the idea is to eat only new foods, like new grain and vegetables. The festival marks the turning of the sun at the winter solstice. It's the time for ceremonial purification in the sacred Ganges river which gives cause for a massive pilgrimage to Bengal.

In the south, boiling new rice is considered a way of devining good luck for the coming year.

Cattle, which are considered sacred, are decorated with flowers and led around town.

Presents are exchanged and a general good time occurs for three days.

The Veddas of Ceylon make offerings of rice cakes.

The Persian New Year, which became Moslem, is the day when God returned Solomon's ring, the devils brought fine gifts, and the swallows sprinkled water on him.

In northern Europe, Estonia, Sweden and Denmark, cakes in the form of a boar were made from the meal from the first ̂gatherings of grain.

The Scots celebrated Hogmanay on the last day of the old year.

Pancakes are appropriate in France. The crepes are tossed on a griddle to bring good luck and wealth.

In Mexico, February 2, corresponding to the Aztec New Year, is a time of rejoicing and follows five days of mourning.

Rites marking the beginning of the N;w Year were practiced by many North American Indian tribes, but their liming didn't always coincide.

The Seneca, an Iroquois tribe of the Eastern Woodlands, celebrated the New Year in February.

Seneca rites would last seven or eight days. On the first day, all fires were put out and the ashes scattered. New fires were built by the Keepers of the Faith, and a white dog was strangled and hung up.

During the next three days, people in costumes and masks rushed from dwelling to dwelling, boys stole food, people asked

that their dreams be interpreted, the False Faces threw ashes over everyone to drive away disease, and women of the Otter Society sprinkled water on everyone who passed by.

On the fifth day, there was a public confession of sins and the while dog was carried on a litter made from tree bark to an altar. There it was burned while speeches, songs, prayers and offerings of tobacco transpired.

The last two or three days were spent with social dances and game playing.

The Eskimo got a jump on everyone by having New Year's Day in autumn.

The Northwest California tribes celebrated in late July; the Hopi in November and other Pueblo Indians at the winter solstice.

In more recent times, many Western countries mark the passing of the old year and the arrival of the new with dancing, drinking and "generally orgiastic behavior". At midnight everybody blows horns, rings bells, shouts Happy New Year!, throws confetti, sings "Should old acquaintance be forgot,” toasts one another with alcoholic beverages that take them way beyond legal capacity, and attempt to kiss everyone of the opposite sex.

These rituals usually are cause for feeling generally lousy tlie actual first day of the New Year and could account for viewing the New Year with regret for the night-before and hope that more common sense will prevail in the New Year.

For Central Illinois and much of the Midwest, memories of the Drought of '88 will certainly not generate many New Year wishes on one another for bright, sunny days! In fact, in '89, people will look forward to being told they are all wet!

Happy New Year!

SATURDAY, DEC. 29.1888

FORREST - The show business does not pay very well in this village.

*AJ. De la tour has fitted up a grocery

store one door east of F.M. Kelley's jewel­ry store.

There are about 121 dogs assessed out of about 300. No one seems to own any dogs when the assessor is around.

WESTON — Henry Frantz has moved back in the old store again. Sony.

E. Blaisdell was over to Peoria one day last week on business, we suppose.

The Christmas tree was not very well attended on account of bad roads and rain.

OWEGO — Mr. Pricer came very near meeting with a very serious accident the other night while going to church. He was walking along the road with his wife, when two teams drove up behind them. It was very dark, and he stepped out of the road to let the first go by. He stepped back in the road and was struck by the second team. He caught the neck yoke and saved himself from falling under the horses' feet.

Married, at the residence of the bride's father, by Rev. C.D. Merit, of Fairbury, Mr. Albert Snethen to Miss Nettie DeMoss, at 3 o'clock, Dec. 25th. After the ceremony the guests, to the number of about 55, were invited to par­take of a splendid dinner prepared for the occasion. (A long list of valuable presents, with the names of the donors, is omitted for the reason that the custom of publish­ing such lists is now obsolete among first- class newspapers. - EDITOR.)

BroMenn links to Parkside's chemical dependency program

Y E A R

T O Y O U !

BroMenn Healthcare has entered into a contract with Parkside Medical Services Corporation (PMSQ for the management of its chemical dependence program.

William J. Mueller, President, PMSC. and Dave Schertz, Vice President o f BroMenn's allied health services, announced that the contract will be effec­tive January 1, 1989.

Mueller stated, "the quality of care was paramount in our decision to add this facility for the treatment of alcoholism and drug dependencies to the Parkside network of treatment facilities. This con­tract relationship enhances and compli­ments Parkside's presence in Illinois, where we currently have eight other facil­ities providing care for alcoholic and drug dependent patients."

"The area of chemical dependent^ treatment is becoming a highly special­

ized and competitive field,’ explained Dave Schertz. "The management contract with Parkside will allow BroMenn to enhance its current chemical dependency services and provide more resources for program and staff development"

Parkside M edical Services Corporation, an affiliate of the Lutheran General Health Care System, is a not-for- profit corporation which owns or manages more than eighty facilities for the treat­ment o f alcoholism, drug dependency, eating disorders and psychiatric illnesses through, the United States and Sweden.

At Mennonite hospital, the Parkside Recovery Center has more space for inpa­tient care and a private entrance to protect patient confidentiality.
