The events were very ball free throw tournament "They were so serious and dedicated about their run ning. At first I wondered why. And I was determined to find out. Now I know why their love for running was so strong," he explained. After three years at Lindblom, Gerald transferred to Kenwood in order to run with the fourth-rated track team in the state. As a runner, Gerald's main concern is staying healthy. His summer track coach, Ed Gernstein, feels that as long as Gerald remains healthy and continues to de velop as he did last summer, he has a good chance of making it to Korea for the 1988 Olympics. His other athletic interests include tennis and skate boarding. In 1982, he was captain and choreographer of an amateur skateboard team that performed in parades, amusement parks and at Park District-sponsored shows. In his spare time, Gerald hides out in his bed room, where he enjoys writing poetry. Gerald hasn't yet decided which of the four schools that have offered him scholarships he will attend. He hopes, however, to better his personal record in the 1500 meter run of 3:56.2 by working with a top track coach at the university level. He also hopes to become so established as an inter national athlete in the next five years that he can market his success the way professional athletes and Olympic winners are doing today. In preparation for that he plans to take business courses in college - when he's not running. Scholarships for summer journalism workshop High school Sophs and Juniors July 6-Aug. 10 How to apply: 1.
