The Johtisburg rescue sqtiad members considered, themselves quite lucky when they were able to purchase a two-way radio ba$e station recently for the 'buiming and a mobile unit for the truck. This enables the fellows to communicate' between truck and rescue squad garage; also the sheriffs office or any emergency vehicle coming to the rescue scene. These purchases were made through a contribution of a donor who wishes to keep his name secret. A vote M thanks should be publicly expressed to this wonderful person who saw the need to purchase such equipment for our squad. By the way, it is your squad, my squad, or that of anyone who may need their assistance at any time. If by any chance you have any sheets, pillow cases or blankets which are still in usable condition and would like to donate them to the squad, please call either 413-J or 434 and one of the members will gladly pick them up. There are times when the squad is caught returning from one rescue mission and dirty linens, only to be called out on another call. So the need is great to have clean bedding on hand in such a" case. Once again may I ask you to please not follow the rescue squad truck or cars immediately following the sound of the siren. These fellows have to get to the scene as fast as possible and you are only hindering their efficiency. The same holds, true for .a fire call. So please think again before you" start to8 follow either of the trucks because the minute or two they may lose because of your curiosity may mean the difference between life and death. The correct procedure to follow in case of fire is to call McHenry 0 and not to use the rescue squad phone number. Our truck, which is station 2, is stationed under the McHenry fire protection district and calls are dispatched from there.- In case of a building fire in this locality, the McHenry fire department sends out a truck to assist our boys. Tiie McHenry fire trucks are equipped with two-way radios and in the near future all trucks will be thus equipped. You are to pull off the road when hearing a siren to enable the members to get to the scene as fast as possible. The fire department consists^ of the following men: Captain Otto Adams, Lt. Joel Adams, Albert Adanrts, 'Harry Freund, Lloyd Freund, Gerry Hettermann, Joe Hiller, Harry Smith, Norb Smith, Fred Huemann and Bill Haag. One more thing about the rescue squad. They have recently purchased a plot of < ground in town where we all hope in the future will stand a building that will house the truck and other useful equipment. The tower is moved to the new location and will be erected within the next few weeks. Any donations to the new building will be. greatly appreciated. The squad has answered nine calls within twelve days and one fire call was made which took the fire department to the Klapperich farm, where they put out the fire before much damage resulted. The rescue squad truck goes out on all building fires in case their assistance • is needed. The rescue squad consists of the following men: Chief Fred Huemann, Assistant Clfeef Albert Adams, Captain Gerry Hettermann, Joel Adams, Dick Marshall, Harry Freund, John Stone, Lee Marshall, Hank Hiller, "Si" Meyers, Gerry Wakitsch, Jim Freund, Bill Haag, "Bud" Meyers, Lloyd Oeffling knd Lloyd Freund. i 1,683 STUDENTS IN COUNTY TESTED IN TB PROGRAM on the positive reactors ^McHenry county Barbara Skrentny, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Franklin Krumwiede, reached another rung on the ladder of life upon graduation from eighth grade at St. John's school.
