Pool Tournament |. A Success The S.S.A.C. pool tournament was held at the Dobbertin home on Oct. 13 and it sounds as if the fellows had quite a good time.

The others at the table were Bernice MacCallunC Helen Smith, Irene Middlekauff and Louise Winters. Bernice was in charge of the program and gave a talk on the U.N.

Parties Galore The lasrTweek or so has been chock full of birthday parties for the yoUng set in the Shores There areNsome ^T-jnay bc,y< missed so if I have pteaSe'let me know. On Oct. 21, Kurt Pogor entertained several of his young friends in his home. Attending this birthday luncheon were Mike Wetzel, Bob and Mike Rueniellan and Don Olbinski. Later that afternoon they munched on popcorn and candy bars at the local movie. By the way, Kurt is now 8 years old. Toni Weber is now a great big 4 years old and had a party to prove it. She invited Cathy and Christy Clark, Sue and Cathy Laroerand, Frankie Kratky, and Kim, Jim and John Weber. Annette Cicchini celebrated all of her 8 years last Friday afternoon at a birthday party held in her home. The group of little girls included Debbie Calvert, Patty Kolino, Terri and Laura Chrismann and Linda Peterson. There was a double birthday celebrated in the Tanner family last Sunday, Oct. 28. Glenn Tanner had h i s fourteenth b i r t h d a y o n S a t u r d a y a n d Evie's sister's children, 16 ye^r twins, Mark and Suzie, have theirs on the second. They celebrated all the birihdays at Evie's mother's home, Mrs. Laura Wolf of Chicago. Meet the Mieritzes The very busy young couple living at 608 S. Orchid Path are your neighbors Allen and Roberta Mieritz. If you were to ask either Roberta or Allen about their business they would tell you that it is no half day job. They are constantly on the go. Allen, who was born in West Alice, Wis., and raised partly, in Wisconsin and partly in Chicago, attended Taft H. S. and went on to Wright Junior College. Chicago born and raised, Roberta also attended Taft H. S. but never met Allen until a blind date brought them together. They seem to have quite a few things in common. Not only do they work for their own company together but both equally enjoy hunting, roller-skating, bowling, and stamp collecting. Roberia says she has to admit that A1 excels her in most of these-things but in hunting, although \ie is a crack shot with a r^le, she is still the, only one/in the family who is ,n_sxp£rt with a hand g^ru A1 does well in many sports; one of which is football. Alter high school he played two years of semi-professiOnal ball. He also loves to water-ski and is a learning golfer. Roberta is quite a golfer herself when she has the time. Soon after they wei*e married, about 6li years ago the Mieritzes moved to McHenry Shores. Since that time they have added two more to their family. They have a daughter, Vicki, who is and a son, Craig, 2M>. Their pet beagle is also very important especially when they go hunting. Around the Shores As an end of summer gettogether Tanners and the Jim McGlades who are summer residents here in the Shores had a nice visit last Saturday. The Middlekauffs had a visitor to their home for several weekj^ Trent's sister, Mrs. W. Trusall, from Sioux City, Iowa, spent a very pleasant time with the family. Last Sunday the Calverts and McDermotts visited with Jackie and Joyce's cousins, Mr. and Mrs. George Coutre, in Northlake and Monday Jackie and Joyce spent the day in Skokie with their mother. Their husbands joined them there after work. The Elmer Gransos, who are former residents of Mc- Lakemoor AWARD PRIZES AT FIREMEN'S COSTUME PARTY Carol Venable The Firemen's dance was a truly fun-filled event. The firehouse was decorated in the traditional black and orange. It reflected the artistic ability of our fire department. Each table had a little carved and lighted pumpkin. Of course, the real fun is viewing the costumes and I can assure you some of them were from out of this world. Prize winners were: Mrs. Patter as a butterfly, most original; Walter Garrelts, as a baby, funniest; and Mr. De- Marco as Marilyn Monroe, the best impersonation. Introductory Sale!

IT PATS TO ADVERTISE PEACH CROP DOWN The 1962 peach crop for Illinois is estimated at 650,000 bushels, 25 per cent below last year's estimate and 26 per cent below the 1951-60 average, according to the Illinois Cooperative Crop Reporting Service. Failure and near failure due to winter kill in many orchards in the northern two-thirds Of the state reduced the crop considerably. Also, the fruit is smaller than normal in southwestern and southern areas where moisture shortages existed during July and August. Jefferson and John Adams e&ch died on July 4, 1826. It happened 100 YEARS ago The oldest incorporated trade association in the country, the United States Brewers Association, was organized in 1862 ... the same year that wMl llifllllis i»tifg!i IN ILLINOIS, Cyrus McCormick built the most complex reaper he had ever designed for the then upcoming world's fair. Several of McCormick's earlier reapers were already in use, harvesting grain for the nation's brewers. Even then, beer was Illinois' traditional beverage of moderation. Beer still provides enjoyment for folks in Illinois, and a good living for many of them--not only for the employees of the Brewing Industry itself, but also for Illinois farmers and other suppliers of th^ materials brewers use. TODAY, in its centennial year, the United States Brewers Association still works constantly to assure maintenance of high standards of quality and propriety wherever beer and ale are served.
