Visitat ion program-- the church people will be visiting the homes of Wonder Lake seeking to f-ffiffP new residents Trained people who understand the nature of Communism are urgently needed in South America, but an understanding of this evil is mandatory before the United States sends anyone to our sister countries. So spoke the Rev. William Coleman, Maryknoll teacher and a priest who has spent several years in Chile and South America. His talk was given at a father-son banquet, one in a series of events sponsored by the Marian Central Catholic high school Fathers' club, last week in' the school cafeteria. This country should become more concerned about the C o m m u n i s t , p e n e t r a t i o n o f South American countries. Father Coleman asserted. "One-third of our trade is with the twenty republics of South America. More than 200 million Catholic --one-third ol the Catholics in the worldlive in South America. "While their way of life is far different from ours, anil only a small percentage practice our religion as we do, still the Catholic church is the only bulwark that keeps most of those countries from becoming communistic." Gerald Smith, Fathers' club president, said the group plans a father-daughter banquet later this year. Coming up soon is a banquet to honor members of the football squads and the coaching staff and cheerleaders. Marian ends its varsity season Nov. 17 with Notre Dame of Niles, a game set for 8 p.m. on the WCHS field. Club Officers Smith is a Woodstock farmer.

William Caldwell was master of ceremonies and Frank Cacci and Park Buckley were co-chairman for the father-son banquet. The Rev. Thomas Rrady, Marian superintendent, sa i d the Fathers' club is an "integral part of the school," and he urged men in the county's fourteen Catholic churches to support the club "so it can continue its fine work." Discussing his experiences in South America. Father Coleman deplored the lack of priests to help strengthen the people's understanding of their religion and revealed the Catholic church hopes to send 5,000 priests from the United States in the next decade. He described Chile as among the "most advanced" countries and then recited the lack of priests: Chile's 6 million people have only 600 parishes and 2,000 priests. Priests must, teach and serve as parish pastors in addition to other duties. The country has no parochial system. It has only two classes of people- - very poor and very rich. Per capital income is $350 compared with $2,800 in the U n i t e d S t a t e s . M o r e t h a n 6 5 per cent of the people receive only 20 per cent of the national wealth, empharizing the large number of poor people. This makes people in these countries ripe for Communism, he warned.

ANNEXATION STUDY CLARIFIED "Dear Editor; "To clarify the intent of the Representatives of Lakeland Park that have met with the City Council of McHenry, and to shed some light on what has transpired as to annexation, I feel I must answer some of Mr. Roepken's statements in the Pulse of Nov. 2 this year. "The fact that Lakeland Park is not contiguious to McHenry has evoked much discussion at these meetings, and not only does Lakeland Shores lie between the two, but many other properties as well. This fact being just one of the many problems besetting the committee. Lakeland Shores is represented on the committee and the discussions so far have included both subdivisions. "One fact must be made clear: that being, annexation to McHenry must be decided by all the residents of the proposed annexed territory. It is they who must vote on whether or not they are desirous of annexation and only the residents of such territory" have this right. The discussions being carried on now are simply to seek out the answers to the many p rohlem s annexation will cause, those it will eliminate, analyze as best possible, compile this information and make it available to all the citizens concerned. "These are the principles on which the committee was formed and are the only reasons for its existence. The decision as to annexation or not is left to the individual with his power of the vote. "Whether or not the many improvements listed will be made available to, or desired by, the annexed territory, again will be decided by the individual through a ballot. "The polls conducted by the committee both in the subdivisions concerned and the city of McHenry favored annexation, so we have determined a public opinion. I might add, the questionnaire was mailed to every resident ISSUED CHARTER j A charter has been granted i by the state to Gordon Corp., ' i 16 Mehring avenue.

The plani^ Uig of such a fine drill takes many men hours of " time and the cooperation of many parties. Having seen the drill and how well it was run is a credit to the director for all his work in advance. "Mayor Donald Doherty made a fine choice when appointing Mr. Shay as McHenry' C.D. director. I also attended the first meeting Sept. 2S at the McHenry V.F.W. home, where there were many outstanding citizens in the group who heard Director Shay's fine program, the finest that I have yet to attend. If people of tlie great McHenry area cooperate with Mr. Shay, as well as the chief of police and fire chief and all the volunteer wardens. McHenry should have the finest planned C.D. program in the mid-west. "It is only through the cooperation and support of employers of these public-spirited citizens that a program such as this can be complete. The understanding of the director's job is necessary. We pray ar.d hope that this program never has to be used for real, but if it happens, we will owe a lot The board of directors of Memorial Hospital for McHenry County met last Tuesday night to award contracts to those contractors who submitted bids for construction of a thirty-six bed addition to the hospital.
