It cost tire repairs for two cars we know of. Little Robbie Wickenkamp suffered a good swollen nose and black eye from a blow he received while playing ball.

Sue and Matt Grizley took their children in to Elmhurst to visit Mntt's, sister, Anne, last Saturday. Louise McEnery had a wonderful dinner in honor of her husband's birthday last Thursday.

Looks like not only the lilacs, iris and tulips are breaking out from the long winters sleep but also our subdivisions greatest picknickers. Gene and Helen Kraskiewicz have had two in their back yard already and we know them both well enough to know how very much the following people enjoyed themselves and the food too. Attending were Ann Herzog, Ivy and Stan Lezak, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Hertzog and son, Tony Piasecki, and of course those merry makers themselves, Helen, Gene and son, Mike.

Fa**well Party • Several of our community ladies attended a farewell party for Marge Casey held at the home of Dolores Rogers last week. Marge received many odds and ends for both hc< new home and new heir, among these gifts the pig made from a plastic bleach bottle appeared to make a big hit. It was filled with cash.

Jo Rizzo and Vicki Bottari. Unable to attend were Lyda Radisch and Jerry Wagner. Hope your new home will bring you nothing but happiness and we want you to know you'll be missecL How Lucky Can You Get It all happened in a rather odd way! When Lyda's brother, Ralph Kendig of Oak Park, visiled Lyda and Bill Radisch in February, he asked Lyda what she would like to have for a birthday gift (her birthday happening to fall this week) and she replied that she had not even thought about it yet! But Ralph had ideas about a trip to Florida again as the gift. The idea appealed to Lyda and Bill so plans began. The date finally arrived and the three took off in the rain enroute to Miami Beach where they had reservations at a hotel with rooms overlooking the ocean and pool. During their stay they took a bus sightseeing trip of the Miami area, and all day Explorer's Boat Cruise where they saw the Main Street of Biscayne Bay with the stilt houses and ate Conch Chowder, an all day car trip down to Key West and they counted the bridges counting forty-three on the way down; one being 7 miles long. Visits were made to the Seaquarium, Silver Springs, Cypress Gardens, Parrot Jungle, and of course, a shopping spree where Lyda selected additional birthday gifts from Ralph and Bill. And, you should see the pictures they took, Bill with his hand in an Alligator's mouth, and patting a Budda's tummy at the Japenese Gar-dens! They also enjoyed evening drives looking at the beautiful scenery at sundown, and the millions of lights sparkling in the dark, Miami Beach is just a fairyland at night. Alter being away from tjopDe for three weeks* they say it was nice to come home to all their friends, but the memory will be bright and pleasant, and Miami Beach will be in the conversation for quite a time to come! Mother's Day Doings Mother's day saw many of us entertaining or going to see our mothers for the day. I enjoyed my day tremendously because I had all four of my sons home for dinner as well as Dave's girl, Penny. With Dave leaving for overseas duty shortly, having them all around me for what may be the last Mother's day for some time to come was wonderful. If I may sav something that may sound sentimental, enjoy your family togetherness, as we always have, they are little such a short while and you can never lose the memories. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Oakford and family spent Mother's day by having Petey's mother, Mrs. Eileen Grondy, her brother, Duke, sister, Mrs. Marylin Mc- Collough, and her daughter, Patti, and her sister, Mrs. Peter Paulsen, her husband, Peter, and daughter, Cindy. Grandparents Helen and Gene Kraskiewicz travelled to Rocelle on Mother's day for the christening of their granddaughter, Diane Rose Thompson. at St. Mary's church. Besides the proud parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ken Thompson and the beaming grandparents, there was Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Kraskiewicz Jr., and that proud uncle, little Mike Kraskiewicz. Mrs. Ann Herzog was taken out to a simply marvelous dinner on Mother's day by her dauehter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Ellis Steen, and granddaughter, Jenny, from Lombard. She also received messages from her daughter in St. Louis. The Chuck Campos spent Mother's day in Chicago with Chuck's mother. The Radisches' eldest daughter. Shirley Lexow, her husband, Chuck, and children, Nancv and Paul, spent Mother's day with Lyda and Bill. And, their voungest daughter, Jackie Riley, and her family visited them bv phone.

Today, in the state that developed the first junior college in the United States (Joliet in 1901), there are thirty junior colleges recognized by the office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction. Seventeen are public junior colleges which enroll 40,000 of the 50,000 students attending the two-year schools. The remainder are private junior colleges. At first, the junior college provided two-year post-high school programs few those planning to continue their educations at a four-year degreegranting college of university. This allows the student to complete the first two years of college in his own community under home supervision and at comparatively low cost. The junior college also makes a valuable contribution to the community it serves through its vocational and technical courses. Also, adult education has proved to be one of the popular functions of the community college. It's cultyral, vocational and leisure time offerings draw thousands of adult participants each year where such courses are offered. At Long Beach Community College (Calif.), for example, an average of 15,000 adults a year have enrolled in this type of program. The case for expansion of the junior college system in Illinois was stated in an editorial in the "Decatur Herald" (June 18, 1962). It said, in part: "The public junior college may be the answer to the problem of crowded undergraduate schools at the state universities.

It has been pointed out that most individuals who leave their home towns to go to college seldom return. The community college, on the other hand, tends to hold them in the community in whicn they were brought up and educated.
