Thursday, 9, 1961 THE McHENRY PUUNDEALER Wond er Lake YOUTH RECREATION PROGRAM AT LAKE WILL BE DEBATED Jane Ducey • . T A lively if not debatable topic is on tap for the Harrison School Parent-Teachers association meeting Feb. 14. It comes under the general heading of "What can young people do at Wonder Lake?" The program is in charge of Marvin Wenck, and is another in a series of high-frequency re- QUests obtained from a parent sdfc'ey conducted by the local PTA. The meeting starts at 8 p.m. in the school gym. Opinion is divided among some who say there's little to offer youth, and others who find it difficult to keep up with a variety of activities for youth, not to mention yeararoupd, out-of-door sports the lake itself offers. Aiding in discussions will be y^mgsters from such local organizations as Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, 4-H, Little League, Junior Legion, and adults of the Wcnder Lake Youth Center advisory board and the four community churches. The program is expected to ppark an earnest discussion among PTA member-parents, and could develop some firm recommendations the commune might use to improve or strengthen youth activities should the need be found to exist. Business affairs of the program include a nominating committee report of candidates for officc next year. The year's only silver offering will be collected, proceeds earmarked for PTA extension work. Refreshnraits will follow the meeting, uflnch also marks Founder's Day., The March meeting has another subject of intense interest, dealing with "School Finances".

Christ the King Church News The Confraternity of Christian Doctrine has been called the choicest form of Catholic Action because it involves lay persons in the teaching of Christianity.

There are six categories of CCD work; 1) Adult helper in the church school, 2) Teachers for the high school catechism class; 3) Parent Educators for the pre-school children; 4) Home visitors for the census and the "shut-ins"; 5) Apostles of good will to contact new parishoners and new Catholics; 6) Discussion club leaders.
