The installation of officers took placc and we offer our congratulations to them: Barb Meurer is the new first vice-president and Janet Kozy is the secretary. Other than these two new officers these ladies are serving another term; Vicki Bottari as president, Jo Rizzo as second vicepresident and Lyda Radisch as treasurer. Our past and present president received a gift from the' Women's Club. L.P.W.C. wish to express its deepest gratitude to Gloria Flannagan and Sue Grizley for a job well done as former officers. The women were left in awe as they opened the community house door. The hall was in complete darkness except for a spotlight which highlighted the May pole and table. The Maypole which extended from the table to the ceiling was gaily done in pastel colors, surrounding the table were cup cakes with miniature May poles. For the border, there were pastel flowers which the ladies received after the business meeting. A smorgasbord is being planned for Saturday, June 15. More details in the paper at a later date. Remember, the June meeting will be Thursday, June 13. The refreshment and entertainment committee have a hard times party planned for the month of June. Bottom Parents of Little Leaguers, we have ordered hundreds of buttons in hopes that the boys will be popping them off at a fast rate when they make a good play. We have the boys to do it now all we need is the parents support and attendance at all of our games. We work hard for funds to run the league and don't want it wasted on unused buttons. Make sure your boys chests will swell with pride. Be there when he plays ball. Trip To Chicago Forty nine of our young folks recently took a most interesting trip tp the Museum of Science and Industry, Planetarium, Museum of Natural History and the Aquarium. They came home bubbling over with many interesting facts and still full of plenty of pep which their chaperons had suddenly lost. The trip was made via bus and left McHenry at 8 a.m. They returned home around 6 p.m. The very tired and also very capable chaperons were Mrs. Lloyd Wagner and Mrs. Ascola. "Strolling Through The Park" Just happened to notice those two lovely young ladies, Kathy Becker and Sherry Jones leaving for the Girl Scout banquet oil last Wednesday. The girls escorts were their very proud dads; Irv and Rich. The girls are membera of Troop 192. Young Norbie Kwiatek has been having to wear a patch over his left eye due to a freak accident at school. Norbie was sharpening pencils and blew out the dust from the sharpener, a piece flew up and scratched Norbie's eye. Hope by now the patch has been removed. Real glad to have seen Mrs. Rose Prazak home again. We all pray there will be no more trips to the hospital. My fellow correspondent really takes our country's physical fittness program to heart--saw her going on a nice long walk the other day- Barb's got a lot more ambition than I have. Speaking of walking (I really rode) we covered the Boy Scoyts hike route last week and • arranged for all the troops camping spots. It was a wonderful ride, watching Mother nature spring back to life is one of the things that will always fascinate me. I know the Boy Scouts are really going to enjoy their hike. Troop 459 has been planning this hike since last September. We know the boys will make it but we wonder about the leaders. We'd like to welcome to the park our newly married couple, Chris and Rich Mercure. They were married last Saturday at St. Mary's. I was told it was a beautiful wedding. Hope you two fine people enjoy many, many years of wedded bliss. Several of the parks fine musicians participated in the annual spring concert on last Friday. Among these fine aspiring young folks were Brad Grote, Pam and Paul Schwegel and Beth Okal. They will be in the musicial program to be held tonight. From the above group Brad Grote took a top place rank and Pam Schwegel a second at the state competition held last month. Our heartiest congratulations to all of you. Confirmed last Sunday at St. Paul's church were Darlene, Donald, Polly and John Licastro. Knew we'd miss some of our First Communions and we did Terry Brooks made hers at St. Patrick's as did Paul Rogers and Debra Holas at St. Mary's. We are sorry and please accept our belated best wishes. Had the pleasure of talking to Helen Strandquist the other evening and as you can guess we naturally got around to talking of our sons. Did learn that their son, Wayne, will be giving instructions starting in July to top Navy brass from admirals on down. Wayne is one of only seventeen instructors qualified to teach in this particular field in the United States. Dottie Becker and her aunt Margaret took a jaunt to Holy Hill, Wis., on last Sunday. They picked a beautiful day for this very inspirational trip.

I really goofed when I wrote last week that young Jack was in San Diego. I completly misunderstood. Young Jack had his training at San Diego but is still over seas. Marine Promoted Jack Lavin was recently promoted to the rank of Lance Corporal. Young Jack has not seen his parents since October of 1961. Hi's been stationed on Okinawa since January of 1962. This fine Marine is in Communications and is an excellent ham operator. He manages through his radio and ham operators here in the states to get frequent messages to his family. Just last Wednesday und the Wednesday before that he phoned home. One phone call was through Phoenix, Ariz., and the other through Waukegan. His very proud dad told me he sounds just wonderful. Besides his phone calls,, messages through ham operators, letters and radia-grams the Lavins also have a tape recording of Jack's marine life. Young Jack states that the island of Guam to him is the most beautiful of the islands. He manages to keep very comfortable in his radio shack with the aid of 3 air conditioners. It's really hot. Among the many gifts sent home to his family have been Japanese money both paper and coin, Japanese calendars, chopsticks, clogs and most cherished by his proud mother is her pink kimono which is v«5ry beautiful and is pronounced key-mona according to her son. Dad proudly shows his handsome smoking jacket and to his kid brother Kevin, it's a jacket complete with embroidered dragons and his name. Jack should be getting home early next year. He'll be in Okinawa until January. It's boys like Jack who make us feel that our country is in good hands. Birthdays On May 10 Susan Ludwig had three candles on her cake.

Games were played with prizes for the winners and food was served. Baby Shower Adella Kroening was cohostess for a baby shower for her sister-in-law, Esther Kroening, last Sunday in Mundelein. Her girls, Ann, Bonnie, Teresa and Margie also shared in all the excitement while Bob and Bobby spent the day with a cousin. A delicious buffet supper was served. The day must have been too much for Esther because when the company left, she was counting the minutes between pains. Confirmation Mary Moll was confirmed at t h e C o m m u n i t y M e t h o d i s t church last Sunday. Attending the party afterward were her great grandma, Mrs. W. Glander, and her grandma Mrs. M.
