Actors show perils of shoplifting
Audiences are judging a group of
Sandy elementary school students’
dramatic abilities rather harshly
lately
It isn't because of the perfor
mances the young actors and ac
tresses are giving — it ’s their
message
Under the guidance of Sandy
police officer Kelly Adovnik. a
group of Kelso School students,
with an assist from his daughter at
Eirwood School, are presenting a
play about what happens after a
juvenile is charged with shoplif
ting The audience reviews have
not been favorable for the accused
Two friends, Wendy and Jane
(Treanna Knight and Jennifer
I ’Inch), enter a local store and
take some make-up. jewelry and a
coat, against Jane's better judg
ment.
The two are caught and let go
following a severe reprimand
Later, Wendy is caught again
and faces a trial That is where the
audience's role and its reaction
takes over
The trial proceeds only to the
point of instructing the jury, which
the audience has become The
judge (Adovniki instructs the au
dience about its options
first
degree theft or second degree
theft, the lesser charge
Both performances so far have
found Wendy guilty of first-degree
theft, despite some powerful
arguments by the defense attorney
(Shannon Adovnik).
The play has been adapted to suit
Sandy students from a Multnomah
County Sheriff’s Department pro
gram Adovnik and Jerri Ellis, a
reserve Sandy officer, did the
adaptation
The program began as a spin off
from Adovnik's working with local
schools at Career Day and Crime
Prevention Programs, and could
be just the first of a series of plays
involving students from all the
schools in the Sandy school
district
The two leaders are looking to
develop more programs, including
presentations on vandalism and
criminal mischief as they are the
crimes that young people are most
frequently involved in
What the viewers of the shoplif
ting play will see is not an inviting
situation The two girls are hand
cuffed by police, subject to inter
rogation and. in Wendy’s case,
taken to court and found guilty
The prosecuting attorney, Brad
Searls, is a Kelso sixth grader and
Shannon Adovnik, his adversary,
is a Eirwood fifth grader
Treanna Knight and Jennifer
U lric h , the two sh op lifters.
Iheresa Ainstad. a policewoman,
lanya Hunt, a store clerk. Robyn
Hayball, a policewoman, and
Brian Rapp, the court clerk, are all
Kelso third graders
The young actors will be visiting
local schools in the near future to
bring their message about the not
so-exciting possibilities involved in
the world of shoplifting

of
s m a ll
businesses improve their

hire, evaluate and terminate
your employees." according
to Dave Polito, coordinator
of the c o lle g e 's s m a ll
business management pro
gram

evaluation, employee pro
ductivity evaluation, and
how and when to terminate
It is the time of year when
plans are underway for
children to start school in the
fall
Two important things to
consider when planning are
to ensure that the child can
hear as well as he should and
that he can see as well as he
should for his age The eye
m uscles are not fu lly
developed u n til approx
irnately eight years of age
Many common vision and
hearing problems are found
in screening programs such
is the one planned Monday,
May 1H, at Sandy Adventist
( ’enter Clinic hours will be 9
a m to 12:30 p m It w ill be
open to children ages four to
six There is no charge
If hearing and vision pro
blems go unnoticed and un
treated until school age, the
child has already missed
m any le a rn in g o p p o r
tunities. according to a clinic
spokesman
All children should be
screened at least once before
school age, the spokesman
continued Parents should
not assume that this is done
Mother’s Day service
set at Sandy Baptist
Mother's Day will be a
special Sunday at Sandv
Baptist Church
The 11 a m service will
feature several "specials,"
including a gift for every
mother in attendance, a
special musical number
from a women's chorus and
a dedication for several
babies in the congregation
There will also be a special
message given by Pastor Ed
Grable
Baby dedication,
believe, is actually parent
dedication, as we feel that
what occurs here is
salvation of the child, but
dedication of the parent to
raise this child in the way
they feel the l>ord com
mands them." according to
Grable
"We have several babies
who have recently been born
to people in our congregation
and we felt Mother's Day
would be a significant time
to have a baby dedication."

the sounds as he hears them,
not as they really are
Many children are born
with normal hearing, but
suffer losses by preschool
age A common cause of this
is repeated ear infections.
Unlike hearing, which is
fully developed at birth, a
child’s eyes grow as he
grows
A child doesn’t know how
