The Senior class of McHenry high school will be presenting Tennessee William's "The Glass Menagerie" Friday and Saturday evenings, April 5 and 6, at 8:15 in the high school auditorium. The public is welcome and encouraged to attend. Tickets may be purchased at the door. "The Glass Menagerie," a serious drama written by Williams in 1945, will be directed by Mrs. Judith Hawkinson, with Donna Gorgo as the mother, Ed Parks as the son, Carroll Beck as the daughter, and Lee Amour as the gentleman caller. Tennessee Williams has again taken a theme applicable to present-day society and has presented it by means of a neurotically shy crippled girl, a boy held from the world by a d o m i n e e r i n g p o s s e s s i v e mother, and HOPE, in the guise of a gentleman caller who poignantly represents "the long delayed but always expected something that we live for." The conflict is one of reality over and against illusion. The daughter, Laura, escapes from a world she cannot understand through her collection of tiny, transparent glass animals and through a large old victrola that plays dated, worn-out records. The mother, Amanda, has created a glorious past for herself that serves to pacify and make bearable frequent moments of despair and insecurity; and the son, Tom, escapes hopefully through the movies where he identifies with the Gables and the Barrymores and thus acquires a facsimile of the adventure he so desperately seeks. The play is autobiographical In that Williams reveals here his younger life at home with his mother and sister, and the truth that remains and is evident as the curtain closes is this... the world of unreality, of self-deception, and of illusion, the world of the glass menagerie, is a sterile'attempt at life and its manifestations. To be fruitful, self-realization and acceptance of that realization is vital. With that there Is hope.

And we can't think of a better reason for these same young men to suddenly take on the more helpless role their sisters long ago assumed for good reason. Of interest is the publication of the first general encyclopedia for the partially seeing. Expected to be completed early in 1964, the set will comprise thirty volumes, each about one and one-half times the size ol the normal volumes. • The new books will provide new reading for partially seeing school children and aging persons, and the schools, libraries and other institutions thai serve them. About 40 per cent of those who are legally blind can read printed material if the type is sufficiently large. Not only are the flowers making their way well above ground, but tulips are reported to be blooming at the G. A. Douglas home in Lakeland Park. K. A. F.

The McHenry people said the plane landed almost in the yard of the DeWitt West HI I home, where the family was j watching television. The pict ure went out, they heard an explosion, then ran to the iack of the house to find a raging fire in the field. They rushed to the scene, but it was impossible to get near the wrecked plane, so intense was the fire. Priests from the ^rea rushed to the scene and administered the last rites of the church to the four victims. A watch found at the scene stopped at 8:52 p.m. Although police lines attempted to keep back the crowd, some broke through, but the mangled mass of wrecknpe and the horrible sight of the bodies scattered throughout the area prompted most of them to leave quickly- It was learned later that the four men had taken the plane from the Crystal* Lake airport about 7 o'clock al- 'hou^h it had been closed about two hours earlier. The* manager, Elmer Kucera, said he returned to the airport at 10 p.m., after hearing of the crash, and found the plane, wh.ch belonged to Father Heineman, gone.
