Twenty THE McHENRY PLAINDEALI3 Aug»sf23, McCullom Lake MCDONALD'S SCRUBS DEFEAT ALGONQUIN 19-15 Eve Levesque Overcoming a handicap of 10-3, McDonald's Scrubs began to rally in the 4th inning during the competition with Algonquin Ready-Mix on Sunday at McDonald's field. In short order, they tied the game and went on to a victory of 19-15 in a very exciting game, well attended. Winning glory for the "or home town" were Chet Helwig, Ed Caron, Bill Brennan, Merv Schmitt, Jake Levesque, Dave Hansen, Len Jensen, Bill Padgett, Bill Dreyer, Don Gerstein and George Loser. Algonquin's team included Fred Legler, Earl Hill, Frank Schmidt, °Bob Wasberg, Turk Weikel, Don Partyka, Ken Mosely, Ralph Vencill, Harry Stickler, Ted Sobick, Harvey Cole, Loren Cokelv, Jerry Spence, and Merle Schneiderman. The job of umpire was handled by our own Joe DeMar who arranged the match. A fancy running catch by Harry Stickler brought cheers from the spectators. It was an exciting game and the losers paid for the half barrel of "you know what". Valuable moral support fot our side was forthcoming from Ken Loesch! It seems that Lakeland Park would like to challenge our "champs" and can do so by contacting Vern Raiford, 385- 1903. There may be another contest in the near future. This is how our "young" lads keep their "girlish figgers"! Excellent Attendance For Cullom-Knoll A fast moving meeting with a great deal accomplished was held on Thursday, Aug. 16. A quorum was no problem this time. Don Parenti wag, unanimously accepted for a second term with, his vice-president Bill Walter being re-elected also. Betty Murray was given unanimous eopsent for the post of secretary, replacing our very capable Venja ScMofner. Fasa= ily duties made it impossible for her to run again. Mickey Murray is again responsible for the finances. A good slate of officers and we should go forward, The following trustees will serve on the board. Art Stuhfeier, Frank Poledna and this reporter are in for a second term. New trustees include Allen McKim and FVed Legler. Don Parenti appointed two committees. First is the one for auditing the books and they are Roger Kinsey, Allen McKim and Lois Parenti. A committee to re-appraise the bylaws and propose revisions include Jake Levesque, Roger Kinsey, Earl Murray, Allen McKim and Don Parenti. Flourescent lighting will be installed in the beachhouse, especially to aid the judges and clerks of elections. Labor and materials are being donated by Earl Murray. A swale will be installed around the basketball court to finish the drainage problem at the beach for once and for all (.we hope!). It will be tied into the existing drainage system of the village. One hundred dollars was given to the McCullom Lake Restoration Fund. The next meeting will be held sometime in September and all members will be notified. Village Board The president and trustees met on Monday, Aug. 13, at which time Art Stuhlfeier gave a full report on the latest road work which is now completed. Knollwood Drive at the intersection of East Lane was widened, ditched, graded, graveled and oiled which puts this road in top notch condition. Other roads were cared for where needed. Baxter and Woodman were requested to have a representative at the next meeting to determine when the sanitary sewage plant survey will be made. According to official correspondence with the federal agency, we have a deadline and wish to complete before this time. The cost per family is still unknown in the matter of a sewage disposal plant. It seems that rumors have been flagrantly circulated with every one an authority. When the results of the survey are knowil, the true story will be told and residents will have the opportunity to decide for themselves. Let's wait for the facts! Each community is unique as to population, topography, and available sites. We cannot compare our situation with any other now existing. Our own survey will tell the story. A motion by Bill Creutz was accepted by the board to clear and maintain the village right* of-way. (All easements). Boulders will be cleared away ass we'll as refuse, brush, and the I weeds cut. This will certainly improve the appearance of village streets. The board will again convene on Monday, Aug. 27,' at 8 p.m. in the beachhouse. Residents are urged to attend. Successful Recovery of "Lady" Astronaut Those clever engineers, Joanne and Lee Mai, report the successful recovery of their first "lady" astronaut. Tern Lynn came out of orbit at 5 p.m. on Aug. 14 and landed safely at Memorial Hospital for McHenry County, Woodstock. After her flight physical it was found she weighed in at 7 lbs., 1 oz. and measured a healthy 20 inches. \Happy crew members also include big brothers -- Mike, 4, and Steve who will be 3 in October. Joanne can be quoted as saying, "it will be fun to buy ruffles and bows instil or looking at them hungrily"! both of whom now reside in the former Eckhardt home. The women brought a "pot to pass" and Elsie concocted the fresh fruit pie -- home grown, ot courses During their northern journey, the Eckhardts have toured Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and many points in Illinois. They were scheduled to depart for home this week. Farewell to Strudemaiu Sorry to say goodbye to Eva and Joe Strudeman who sold their home on Knollwood Drive and left last weekend for Chicago. They had a new baby girl the first week in August, but no further details were available. bus, Thursday, Aug. 16, for the annual outing at an amusement park in Chicago. They were in the very capable hands of Mrs. Joe White and Mra Maud Stuhlfeier. Both women had glowing praises for the behavior of our lasses and lads. They behaved in excellent fashion and had a marvelous time, arriving back home about 11:30 p.m. The young people were equally generous in their praise of their chaperones. and all axe deeply grateful to these two fine women. Our Loss Is Skokle's Gain it is with a sense of loss that we say farewell to Ruth Smith who sold her lovely home on W. Orchard Drive and took up residence in an apartment in Skokie on Monday. Ruth and Bob were important cogs in the machinery of our village. Each contributed in great measure to improving our community. Ruth was one of the organizers of the Ladies of the Lake and Bob served as a trustee of the village board: A dynamic personality, Ruth's absence will certainly be felt and we truly hope this is only a temporary move. We have a feeling she will be back! New Tenants We sincerely spread the "welcome mat" for Mr. and Mrs. R. W. Johnson -- a young couple who purchased the Smith home and will be moving in shortly. It would be nice if the neighbors in that area would call and make them feel "at home". Former Residents Feted A lovely table burdened with chicken, fresh garden vegetables, casseroles, jello molds and "tasty" pastry" featuring fresh raspberry pie, was spread at the home of Harriet McNamara on Aug. 16 to honor Lena and Fred Eckhardt. This couple left our shores some years ago, but manage to return to their old haunts about this time each year. They now reside in Tampa, Fla. There were twelve people at the festive board and they included Elsie and Clayt Nelson, the Gene Shigleys, Pearl and Win Pietsch, Albert Walker of Palatine, Lillian Taylor and her mother, Mrs. Marie Olsen, Hespital Patients Ercell Lock checked in to McHenry hospital a week ago Sunday and underwent surgery on Monday. She came home last Thursday and is coming along fine. Other patients at McHenry hospital were Martha Lorch and Melinda Adams. Second All-Star Game 1 On Saturday Our little league all-stars were really clobbered by Lakeland Park A. S. last Saturday, by a score of 17-4. Excellent pitching on the part of the Lakeland boys was largely reisponsible. Jackie Granath is credited with the only home run for our lads. The boys will have another chance to even the score when they again meet on Lakeland's diamond this Saturday, Aug. 25, starting at 3 p.m. Spectators are welcome. Would be nice to give our little fellers some good moral support. Building Fund Party, Sept. 1 According to Frank Poledna, chairman of the Cullom-Knoll building fund, a public party will be held at McDonald's on Saturday, Sept. 1. Proceeds will go to new or larger quarters. The fund is approaching the $3,000 mark and will go over that sum when money is allocated from the summer festival. Sportsmen's Annual Dance And Cook-Out Sept. 8 Tickets are available from any of the members for the McCullom Lake Sportsmen's Club eighth annual dinner dance, Sept. 8. It will be held at the Johnsburg Community hall and will again feature a barbecue. Bridal Party Participants Mrs. Cammy Gay lord served as a bridesmaid and her husband, Don, as a groomsman at the nuptials uniting Doris Lossman and Bill Diedrich recently. George Posthuma of West Shore Beach caught the bridal bouque^ Donning Navy Blue Shortly Two of our young men, Boh Gates and Butch Stacknick, have successfully passed their aptitude tests and will be taking physicals some time next month preparatory to entering the United States Navy. (Hurray, my favorite branch of the service!) We understand their grades were excellent and they are eager to be sworn in. More details as we receive them. County Chairman to State Convention Jake Levesque, who is county chairman of the Republican Central Committee, left this morning to attend the state convention in Springfield tomorrow. Theresa Schultz, Democratic precinct committeeman, attended the convention last week and during her stay she and about fifteen other passengers had a barrowing 15-20 minutes when the elevator in which they were riding stuck between floors. She did attend a tea at the home of Governor Kerner. 'Teens To Chicago About thirty young ladies and gentlemen boarded the Second Party for Two year old Phyllis and Dennis played host to members of their family and friends for a party for their two year old Sandy on Sunday. Her natal day was Aug. 13. A buffet style supper of roast beef sandwiches and trimmings was served to greatgrandmother, Mary Wasyeczka, grandparents, Lottie and Gene Piotrowski, Mr. and Mrs. John Sklarski and children, Mrs. Dorothy Valentine, Barbara Regnier, Cynthia Rourke, and aunt Delores Piotrowski. x All Around the Lake Michigan, not McCullonv W* BT.

COUNTY'S JUNE CASELOAD FOR AID DISCLOSED For the third successive month the public aid caseload declined during June to a total of 444,912, a drop of 8,367 persons from the May total of 453,279, according to the report released by Peter W. Cahill, executive secretary of the Illinois Public Aid commission.

These totals include payments for burials, foster care for ADC children removed from unsuitable homes, and Care for the medically indigent in Chicago and Cicero. Of the June costs, the state's share was 54.5 per cent; the federal gov* emment's share, 40.7 per cent; and that of the local govern^ ment, 4.8 per cent. * The caseload for McHenry county was as follows: Total, all programs, 550, $29,075; old age assistance, 204, $14,268; aid to dependent children, 140, $5,331; blind assistance, 3, $468; disability assistance, 14f, $632; general assistance, 189, $7,870. s -- 1-- 1 School children in Russia at? tend classes 6 days per week, 9 or 10 months out of the year, with 4 hours of homework each evening.
