According to The Indianapolis News, appropriate to the month of May, the two Greek organizations designed and built a mock Indianapolis 500-mile Race car which they pushed from the Hanover campus to Indianapolis Union Station. The goal was to collect donations from various Warsaw Christian to hold fish fry The Warsaw Christian School will be holding a fish fry this Saturday, May 19, from 4-8 at the Women's Building on the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds, Warsaw.

How to shop smart...

According to a recent Food Marketing Institute survey, nearly all food shoppers say the nutritional value of food is an important consideration when making selections at the supermarket. The nutritional components of greatest concern included cholesterol, fat. sodium, vitamins, minerals and sugar. Filling up a shopping cart with the most nutritious choices isn’t always easy. In the produce section, stock up on foods that allow one to have three to five servings of vegetables a day and two to four servings of fruit. The fresh fruits and vegetables in the produce section are good sources of vitamins A and C, and fiber; and they are low in calories, sodium and fat (except for coconuts, nuts and avocados). For two servings a day from the milk, cheese and yogurt group, check the dairy case. These foods are good sources of calcium and protein, but offer a wide range of calories, fat and sodium. The following tips are offered in helping make the best choices: • Skim and lowfat milk, and plain lowfat yogurt provide the most calcium for their calories. A cup of skim milk, for example, provides about the same calcium as whole milk, with 60 fewer calories and seven grams less fat. • Process American cheese, cheese foods and cheese spreads are lower in calcium and higher in sodium than most natural cheeses. An ounce of natural cheddar cheese contains less than half the sodium of an ounce of process American cheese.

BEEMER TALKS .ABOUT MEIR AUTO — Bill Beemer, Syracuse, gave information on the 85-year-old Mier ear to members of the Wawasee Kiwanis Club at their Saturday morning meeting, May 12. Beemer explained that the Meir auto was conceived and constructed by Sheldon Harkless in his machine shop located in Syracuse. Sheldon was the father of the late Ken Harkless. and the grandfather of Betty Appenzeller. Ten units were built of this type of car. but only one is still in existence. It was traced through the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry to Sarasota, Fla., then to the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas, Nev. It was purchased from the Las Vegas museum for $25,000 in the fail of 1989 by local donations and returned to Syracuse. It will be put on display on the museum floor of the Syracuse Public Library when the addition is completed. Beemer is chairman of the committee raising funds to pay for this important part of the history of Syracuse, which has now been brought home. Pictured are Greg Long. Kiwanian, and Bill Beemer receiving a certificate of appreciation.

While fat is the biggest concern at the meat counter, there are many lower-fat selections available. Here are some tips to remember: • Poultry without skin and fish are both lean choices. The light meat in chicken and turkey is leaner than the dark meat. • The leaner choices of beef include round, loin, sirloin and chuck (arm) steaks or roasts, especially “select" grade cuts. Select cuts are leaner than “choice" ones, which are leaner than "prime." • Ground beef is made from a variety of cuts, so fat content varies. In general, ground sirloin and ground round are leaner than ground chuck, which is leaner than regular ground beef. • Lean choices for pork include the tenderloin, center loin roasts and chops, and ham. • Processed meats such as hot dogs, bacon, sausage and luncheon meats tend to be high in fat and sodium. Some reduced-fat or lower sodium versions may be available. The following tips may be helpful when shopping the bread and cereal aisles:

amounted to the most money raised for charity raised by a campus Greek organization in the history of Indiana. Atwood will graduate from Hanover in this month, with a degree in business and marketing. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. H. James Atwood, North Webster.

•Generally, whole-grain breads are higher in fiber than those made from refined flours, but figuring out which breads are whole grain can be tricky. “Wheat bread” does not mean whole wheat. Bread that is a rich brown color is not necessarily whole wheat either. Look for the words “whole wheat” or the names of other whole-grain ingredients listed first on the ingredient label such as cracked wheat, bulgur, oatmeal, whole cornmeal, whole rye and scotch barley. • Compare nutrition labels on cereals to choose ones lbw in sugars and sodium and higher in fiber. When shopping for snacks, here are some helpful tips: • Go easy on snacks that list sugar, or different types of sugars, as the first ingredient. • Many snacks contain animal shortening (lard or beef tallow) or palm, palm kernel or coconut oils — all of which are high in saturated fat. • Most nuts, chips, pretzels and products like them contain sodium from salt and other ingredients. • Crackers vary widely in sodium and fat content. Crackers that are lower in fat and/or sodium include rice cakes, crisp breads, matzo, melba toast and saltines.. Unsalted and lowsodium crackers are available.

Preventable accidents

Kids are already thinking about swimming! Summer means great fun, but also a tragic increase in swimming and diving accidents in which most of the victims will be permanently injured. Most of these accidents are preventable. Young people misjudge the water depth and dive into shallow water, breaking their necks. For one moment of thoughtlessness, the victim will spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair. Always check water levels before diving, says Health News Network. '«rf • mTb BhuflßiflMMk IffPgHßgL
