DECEMBER I2, I973 Ld TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN CERT EER THE TORONTO 51) SYNDICATE Kenny spent most of the summer at camp and loved it with the opportunities for swimming, fishing, canoeing and hiking. He plays baseball, football, hockey and basketball. Just turned 11, Kenny has been in special education classes but has now moved into the regular Grade 5. He has a slight perceptual handicap which interferes a bit with his reading but does not otherwise seem troublesome. Though not a top student, Kenny likes school and is eager to learn. Kenny is a good-looking boy with blue eyes, blonde hair, fair skin and freckles. He is near-sighted and really needs glasses, but he hates to wear them so they are more often in the case than on his nose. ; Pleasant, co-operative Kenny is always ready to help with chores either at school or in his foster home. He is generally happy, with many friends. He follows rules well -- indeed he seems happiest when life is planned so that he knows what the program is and what is expected of him. Kenny needs a mother and father with warmth and sensitivity who will give him love and encouragement but will not be demanding about academic achievement. Since he gets on well with children of all ages, he will like to have brothers and sisters in his adopting family. To inquire about adopting Kenny, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community & Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general adoption information, please contact your local Children's Aid Society. HE LOVES SPORTS nm,
