PAGE 6 THE SENTINEL THURSDAY, AUGUST 31,1989 Have I told you about my close encounter with George Herbert Walker Bush? It hap- pened about five years ago while Mr. Bush was still viee president, the understudy rehearsing for presidential perks. I was working at the University of Rochester's Interfaith Chapel where my du- ties ranged from planning spe- cial events, to getting the old oak trees on the riverbank fertilized, to hurrying Physical Plant into the men's room at 8 a.m. to get the plumbing uiiplugged before the trustees' annual meeting at 9. Since the chapel is a lovely building with large rooms over- looking the river, some interest- ing celebrities have walked through its portals and commented on the unusual green hue of the Genesee. Therefore, when Mr. Bush was asked to be the keynote speaker at the installation of his friend Paul MacA voy, new Dean of the Graduate School of Man- agement (now the Simon School), the chapel was selected as the logical site for the vice president to hold a press conference and attend a faculty reception. And the Director's Office would serve as a holding room for George, Barbara and staff. I didn't think Bush's visit would be too much different from other luminaries who sampled our coffee and Danish. I was wrong. About a week before the event, a squad of Secret Service men invaded the chapcl. Although I offered our help on the first day, no one even said \Hello\ until the third day when their leader informed me that he was using our chaplain's offices for their communications pecple. I replied, \No you're not!\ The leader's eyes bulged, his face seeped apoplexy and he said, \Oh\! Thank God for America and a boss who said \You're right\! The communications staff used a small conference room but the FBI ran a security check on chaplains and staff, the build- ing was scrutinized by the Secret Service, Sheriff's Office, State Troopers, the Canine Corps and Jennifer 'Banfie(C£ Schaof of Vance Lower MiD, 61 North Main SI., Honeoye Falls Register NOW for Fall Classes!

At6 a.m. water-soaked clouds threat- ened as Physical Plant people papered windows so the vice pres- ident would not be visible to the outside world. By noon a metal detector had been installed at the front door. A short time later we were evacuated so that the. dogs could sniff hidden crrumies for bombs. The quad, shrouded in a heavy gray mist, seemed a for- eign ploce with guards on rooftopS silhoueued against the sky. It was even stranger to see mounted police circling the chapel. When the Bush group was only 30 minutes away, food and flowers were arranged in front of the large picture window in the director's office. There was an air of expectancy as the clock ticked away until word was re- ceived that the Bush set had touched down. Then expectancy evolved into a \this is it\ excite- ment. The men from Washington assumed their positions in office and hall. When the vice president and Mrs. Bush crossed the thresh- old, only two words were spa- ken: \He's here!\ And the guards swarmed around them when they reached the office area But the same determination that won him the highest offic~ in the land pushed him over to my desk with outstretched hand as he said, \I'm George Bush. I want to thank your for all your work.\ And again, on the way out, he jumped up over his phalanx of protectors so he could wave goodbye with another \Thanks.\ The cynic may comment, \Hey he was already campaign- ing. It Maybe so. But I'm inclined to think it was the same innate humanism and friendliness which LIMA DENTAL OFFICE \Gentle Dental Care° All seM:es, including cosrneIic wetIt and surgery wkh emphasis on pmvention.

Mrs. Smith lives with her daughter and son-in-law, Dorrie and Warren Haskins on Martin Road. In last week's Sentinel an ad describing two lost Jack Russell terriers should have read \black and brown faces.\ You guessed itl Joe Bifsplick hit again and our two pups, enroute from kennel to house, sniffed the air and took off for fields and woodchucks. We're lost without them and hope they are too. If you have any informa- tion about them, please call 624- 4116. Have you seen Ken Schreib's new hairdo? The general consen- sus at the recent town board meeting is that it's \him and he should keep it. And have your heard AJ. Stephany's story about the horse that will sneeze on request? Ac- cording to AJ., ata recent picnic for patients and families at the Mt Morris Nursing Facility, part oftheentertainmenl was a wagon ride around the campus. The lXJ'scs appeared to be very well trained. WbcIl AJ. expressed his surprise to the driver regarding their re- sponse to voice commands, he replied, \Sure they know what I'm saying. Why, old Dan even sneezes when I ask him to.\ The man turned to Dan and said, \Sneeze Dan. It And Dan did.

Almost three fourths of the respondents had used some form of violence on a child and one out of eight of the couples surveyed admitted that at some point in their marriage there had been an act of violence capable of causing serious injury.

Animal' Care by P.V. Guild :;VM Hi.p .Dysplasia Hip dysplasia is a condition of dogs where the hip joint or joints do not form properly. This results in an unstable joint and as the dog ages ends up as arthritis in these joints. The arthritic condition may be quite mild or cause the dog to be totally cripped in the rear legs. Most people feel hip dysplasia is caUsed by a combi- nation of heredity and nutrition. If your dog's parents carried the genes for his dysplasia, then some or all can be present in your dog. If so you can help the dog greatly with proper nutrition. Proper nutrition I deilne as a quality balanced dog food in moderation, and without excessive supplementation of vitamins or minerals. . Hip dysplasia is rare in small breeds of dogs and a1llOO common in large breeds. This fact alone says thal rate of growth is a very important factor in the development of hip dysplasia. By forcing your puppy to grow too rapidly you can worsen the dysplasia problem. Overnutrition is one of the main causes of hip dysplasia Another problem is too many supplements. Minerals need to be present in adequate amounts and some in proper ratios for the body to use them effectively. Adding excessive supplements to the diet means you have unbalanced a previously balanced diet which can be detrimental to your dog. With the quality balanced diets available for pets today, developed by nutritional experts at a huge cost, it defies logic to make up a home brew andiCt add excessive supplement and still expect normal healthy dog i. Dogs with nip dysplasia may show a variety of signs. Some may appear normal where more severely affected dogs will show lameness of one or both rear legs, discomfort when getting up, a bunny-hopping running motion and reluctance or inability to climb stairs or jump. Treaunent of hip dysplasia varies with signs presenL Some dogs need only anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin. Others may need surgery ranging from reducing pressure on the joint all the way through hip replacemenL The proper treatment would be determined by pelvic x-rays and outward signs. Dogs with hip dysplasia should not be used for breed- ing purposes. and their weight should be carefully controlled. With proper therapy and weight control many dogs with hip dysp~ ca.n.1ead fairly nonnalli~ \
