LaGrande Park Kids Beat The Heat With Fire Hose
The children at LaGrande Park in Fanwood beat the heat last week by running through the water from the fire hose during the summer pro- gram sponsored by the borough's Recreation Commission.
The 5-to-7-year-old bike race was won by Justin Frasier, with Dana
Hinton placing second and Amy Kocot taking third. After the race, the competitors enjoyed a refreshing ride through the fire hose.
Arts and Crafts are in full effect at LaGrande. Michelle Grover and Raychel Krupper made "bad hair day" pins. Simmone Ali, Zaire Ali, Jes- sica Thompson, Christopher Thomp- son, and Francis Alardo made flower pictures. Oriental fans were made by Rachel Zucker, Gwen Zucker, Dana Skwirut and Brittany Skwirut.
Last week's ping pong champion was Chris Mattern. Jessica Gutierrez placed second and Eric Sheftal took third.
The weather wasn't the only hot thing at La Grande Park. There was a scorching Big Wheel race. Christo- pher Kocot won the 5-and-6-year old bracket and Malik Milligan came out on top in the 7-and-8-year old bracket.
Another popular game was nok- hockey. Last week's reigning cham- pion was Justin Eusebio. Marielle Kamoh took a close second, while Raychel Krupper placed third.
The Fanwood Recreation Commis- sion will sponsor another soccer camp at LaGrande Park from Monday through Friday, August 10 to 14.

School One Transformed Into Student Art 'Gallery'
School One Elementary in Scotch Plains was transformed into an art gallery for an evening in June, when the school held its art show entitled "Children's Art, Children's Trea- sures '98."
The show was organized by the school's art teacher, Susan Albert.
Each child in the school had at least one piece of art in the exhibit.
The show featured a diverse array of artwork styles created by the stu- dents during the school year. The works of art were grouped into differ- ent "galleries" depending on the type or style of art being displayed.
Among the many types of art pre- sented were: Aztec ornaments, Afri- can tribal masks, cave art drawings, simulated Burmese lacquerware, Japanese fans, medieval stained glass windows, Colonial tinsel paintings, Chinese paper weavings and Roman mosaic tile designs.
There were also galleries featuring paintings for which the students had studied and copied the styles of such famous artists as Claude Monet, Georges Seurat, Vincent Van Gogh, Henri Matisse, Frederic Remington, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miro, Jackson Pollack, Piet Mondrian, Georgia O'Keefe, Jacob Lawrence and Horace Pippen.
In addition to the galleries, the show featured some students actually demonstrating the use of various art techniques.
SCHOOL ONE GALLERY…Students from School One Elementary in Scotch Plains enjoyed having their school transformed into an art gallery recently for their school's art show. Pictured, left to right, are: Dana Schoenberger, Karen Murad, Gina Ziegler, art teacher Susan Albert (who organized the show), and Chris Murphy.

Automobile Checkup Eases Summer Driving Worries
A quick and easy automotive checkup can help prepare a vehicle for the stress of high summer tem- peratures, and increase reliability on long road trips, according to the Automobile Association of America (AAA) New Jersey Automobile Club.
"Cold temperatures may be behind us, but summer heat can be just as hard on automobiles," said Rick Town, Assistant Vice President of Automotive Services.
"A few minutes checking you car's vital components can help you enjoy a summer of trouble-fee driving," he added.
To help prevent dangerous and inconvenient tire failure, motorists are urged to examine tires for uneven or excessive tread wear. They are also advised to make sure all tires, includ- ing the spare, are inflated properly.
With the engine off, car owners are encouraged to look for worn or cracked belts and damaged, blistered or soft hoses. They are urged to in- spect the antifreeze/coolant level and condition, making certain the proper 50/50 mixture of water and coolant is
present. It is also recommended that car owners check the motor oil level and condition. If driving under extreme conditions such as very hot tempera- tures or towing a heavy trailer – motorists are advised to switch to a motor oil with a higher viscosity. Car owners are urged to check their vehicle's owner's manual for spe- cific oil recommendations.
If an individual is not comfortable performing this inspection, a quali- fied auto service facility — such as those recognized by AAA's Approved Auto Repair program — can conduct a thorough examination.
Because even properly maintained vehicles can break down, Mr. Town has urged motorists to equip their vehicles with an emergency kit con- taining at least the following items:
• A flashlight with extra batteries. • Warning devices such as flares or reflective triangles.
• Jumper cables and a first-aid kit. • A cellular telephone provides an easy way to summon emergency as- sistance.
