The youngsters competed in such events as Softball throwing, standing broad jump, the high jump and a series of running events. The annual Olympics, made possible through donations from local service clubs, banks, school organizations, insurance companies and individuals, brings together the children from the Jesse J.

Kaplan School in West Nyack, Letchworth Village in Thiells, the Association for Help of Retarded Children in Pomona, Rockland Children's Hospital in Orangeburg and the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES). "It's the only big day in the school year for them," said Frank Mazzuca, director of the Olympics. "It involves every retarded youngster in the county and it the only competitiveness they'll have." Held under the auspices of the Joseph B. Kennedy Foundation, the event culminated a "year-long process" of preparing the youngsters in physical education programs, he said.

You can't purchase cleaning items or paper goods, pet food, or alcoholic beverages with food stamps. The budget averages just over $1 per person per day. I put my family on a food stamp budget recently for two months. It's not easy to feed a family for this amount, but it can be done.

What efforts are being (Continued from IB) And he feels a well appointed lot would attract car poolers using nearby Exits 10 and 11 of the parkway. The state has included the Palisades Parkway lot in Clarkstown and the Ramapo lot in an overall "fringe area" parking program which encompasses 10 parking areas in a seven-county region north of New York City, according to Alan Bloom, the state transportation department's regional planning engineer in Pough-keepsie.

The program began over a year ago, before the energy crisis, but the gas shortage "encouraged" it, Bloom said. "We're trying to stick with the areas that can be set up quickly," he noted. Hence tfe attempts to use state land such as the lot by the parkway, or town-owned land like the Ramapo parcel. Bloom said the parkway lot is being delayed by a legal technicality which may require that state funds go only to parking areas where commuters change "modes" of transportation where they Eark their cars and get on a us, for example. A car poolers' lot such as the parkway area where commuters get out of one car into another may present problems.

According to Assemblyman Eugene Levy, who said he has been "pushing as hard as (he) can" for the Ramapo lot, that raised Mrs. McCoy's course ighly, saying that she had an easy, interesting way of teaching. "She put a little laughter in the course," said Jeffrey Dyche of Suffern. "I think it's the nicest class I've been in." panded to the rest of the county, starting with the Nyack area as soon as we line up enough volunteers. Q.

How would someone apply for food stamps? A. It is necessary as a first step to call the Monsey food stamp office for an appointment. The workers in that office determine eligibility and explain the procedure for buying and using the stamps. It is also possible to make arrangements for appointments in other parts of the county, since the Monsey office is not easily accessible from some areas. Funeral services will be held at 12:30 p.m.

The students questioned made to make people aware of the food stamp program? A. I'm concerned that the whole public be made aware that this is just a program to assist in food buying, like the coupons you cut out of the newspapers, and not a welfare program. Information is available from the food stamp office in Monsey and volunteers are being placed in different groceries around the county to additional information.

(Continued from 1U) Saturday's was the second field trip for the class, which had already visited a New Jersey wildlife sanctuary. Because the group meets on Saturdays it had missed the trip to a sewage treatment plant, which is normally a scheduled feature of the class. Two of the students said they were just as glad about missing that particular field trip.

At the lake the class was serious about its study, although the concern with data didn't diminish the excitement of spending a day outside in the sun. One test tube filled with dark, living matter swimming about raised a chorus of exclamations from the students. "Oh, wow, there are things that are moving," exclaimed the student who had collected the sample. "I didn't know that." "It's teeming with life," said Mrs. McCoy, who went on to explain that the living matter would begin to reduce itself rapidly.
