Traffic Accident Deepest, sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Jensen of Richmond on the untimely loss qf their son, Bill, whose young life was snuffed out last week in a tragic accident. The Jensens were jfrell known in the community ®5ince they lived here before moving to Richmond. 17-yea"r-old Bill; made many friends among our young people and had kept up the friendships after they moved. Bill attended many of the 'teen dances held at the beach. Words pannot convey the grief the young ladies and men of the village felt when the ghastly news reached them. tThe Jensens can derive a small easure of comfort in knowing their ton was loved and revered by all who came in contact with him, by his charm, good manner, and wholesome outlook on life. Quick Thinking Hurrah? and a big bouquet to one member of our extra special police department, Larry Murray ftnd his friend, Fred Wetzel, for -<fheir fast action the other morning. Mrs. Ethel Myers fainted while carrying on a conversation with d lady in Long Lake. "iTie woman contacted the phone operator, who in turn alerted our polic& department-- in this case, Officer Murray. He and friend Fred dashed cK%r to Myers' home and revived the unconscious victim. Mrs. Myers has been taking "ome new medication--under doctor's order--and apparently suffered a reaction. Fortunately she siustained no lasting ill effects. But, needless to say, her gratitude to the two men, the operator, aiid the lady who had her wits about her, are. boundless. Good going on everyone's part! ~ • The lovely bride was radiant in white chiffon with a long veil ^nd carried white gardenias. Her niaid-of-honop wore blue chiffon and the bridesmaid was attired in lavender chiffon. Both women carried, roses. . The reception for 100, guests was held at the home of the bride's aunt in Evanston. After the "ceremony and the festivities, the newly united couple ieft for Dekalb to begin .their honeymoon.

While there--the whole crew said "how-de-doo" to Theresa and daughter Lynne Schultz and Irma Qberhuber, complete with twin daughters and son Mike. The Howes and five made good work o'f a- sustaining lunch--then finished the day at our own beach. 'Twas a bit wearisome--but plenty rewarding!

Reason for the trip was the annual reunion held on Sunday, Aug. 18, which was represented by three generations and eighty four people--all family!

Marge was especially happy to be reunited with her one sister, Sister M Jordan, OP. of Great Bend, Kansas, and lfer mother, Mrs. Mary Rziha.
