Parks' mascot relieves boredome With so much talk on leisure living, with the desire for a good life, has television become your only surce of entertainment? If so, perhaps you happened to watch the TV series on boredom which was recently telecast.

Did any of the many signs and symptoms which were discussed during the series fit your case? The Blue Island Park district has a remedy. The district has adopted a large, awesome new mascot which takes on many shapes and dimensions. The looks of the new mascot (the Boredom Gobbler) appear differently to each individual depending on which recreation class you attend. For example, in the Park district's guitar class, the Gobbler can display musical talents, with some sour notes floating over the sound "pUnketty, pUnketty" of the many budding guitar- ists. In the slim-trim class, the Gobbler can be seen stretching and flexing his muscles.

Meditation taught in die yoga class is teaching the Gobbler to relax and enjoy each and every day. For outdoor activity, the Gobbler is learning the game of golf. The Gobbler, if you look closely, can even be seen painting and drawing in his leisure time. 'All of these activities point to the new theme of the Blue Island Park district "Recreate, Don't Hy- bernate." Join a leisure recreation session offered by the district. For more information concerning the Park district's new mascot, the Gobbler (better known to some 'as the recreation sessions offered), simply phone the Boredom Gobbler's trainer, director of parks and recreation John Murphy, at 3853304.
