MOTORISTS HURT JN ACCIDENTS t OCCURRING HERE ••* (Continued From Pat^ 1) Between 400 and 500 young people and their parents attended annual College^Night at McHenry high school last Thursday. This was the scene in one of the study halls, where a representative of Northern Illinois university answered questions from prospective students. Business Men Head Division, Hospital Drive "The last campaign division of the McHenry hospital expansion program is now being organized and solicitation of this division will begin within a week", Virgil R. Pollock, general campaign chairman, stated when he announced the appointment of two prominent local businessmen as co-chairmen of the Area division -- James J. Lennon and LeRoy E. Olsen. JAMES LENNON is the son of the late James M. Lennon, past president of the board of directors and a founder of McHenry hospital. Mr. Lennon resides with his wife, Marianne, and children, James M., Barbara Beth, William John and Robert Joseph, at 1402 N. Green street, McHenry. LeRoy Olsen, formerly of Chicago, an executive in the electronics communications field, has been a resident of McHenry for the past fifteen years. He attended Northwestern university and received his degree in business administration in 1949. He is a member of the Chamber of Commerce and is currently chairman of the McHenry Planning commission. During World War II and the Korean War, he served as a communications expert with the United States Navy. He resides with his wife Marion and children, Glenn and Marsha, at 313 North Front street, McHenry. McHenry Man To New Post MENTAL HEALTH CENTER NAMES AREA DIRECTORS Musin' & Meanderin' (Continued from Page 1) (Continued from Page 11 dinate activities of the safety and disaster committees, and be responsible for Mercyville's outpatient department. Harold H. Nelson, M.D., medical j director, explained the specific problem associated with the'last named responsibility. He pointed out that several communities in Illinois do not have psychiatric clinics or services; however, referring physicians from these regions continue to send patients to Mercy ville. Some require shortterm diagnostic or out-patient treatment. Others may require hospitalization. Mr. Blumberg will be in charge of administering this out-patient load. Prior to serving as administrative director of the McHenry Mental Health Center for McHenry County, Mr. Blumberg was the director of social services at Longview State hospital in Cincinnati. He is a member of the National Association of Social Workers and the Academy of Certified Social Workers. of control on Howe road, two miles northwest of Wonder Lake, a half mile west of Barnard Mill road. The accident occurred when he was unable to make a curve. Spencer was taken to McHenry hospital for treatment. A passenger, George Spencer, 8, escaped injury. Robert Hanford of 1716 N. Court street, McHenry sustained lacerations of the head and bruises when his station wagon went out of control as he drove on the Johnsburg- Spring Grove blacktop, three miles north of Johnsburg, last Thursday. Hanford was driving north when the wheels struck some smooth, wet blacktop. The vehicle struck a utility pole Charles B. Foreman of 1716 N. Flower, McHenry, was blamed by sheriff's police for leaving the scene of a property damage accident last Sunday at 5:25 p.m. The accident occurred on Rt. 31, north of Ringwood. Foreman told authorities the car directly ahead of him suddenly applied the brakes and his own auto skidded on the wet pavement and went out of control. Considerable fencing and several posts were taken down. Earlier that day three cars were involved in a minor accident on Rt. 31, north of McHenry. They were driven by Martin Klapperich of 3504 W. First street, McHenry; Ray J. Plucinski of 1809 N. Sunset, Lakeland Park; and Harold L. King of 3907 W. Ringwood road, McHenry. Klapperich told sheriff's police he was unable to start his car and was being pushed by the Plucinski auto. King, who was south-bound, said he was having trouble with the floor shift of his car and glanced down momentarily. When he looked up again the two cars were so close he was unable to stop. None of the drivers was incourtesy of asking permission before hunting on a farm or other private property. Most people remember to do this, ,but others invade with little thought for the owner. By asking, farmers can indicate places to hunt away from livestock and in areas where the use of firearms is not objectionable. Hunting is for sportsmen, who hardly qualify for the title if they fail to follow these basic rules. One of. the newest creations of science to amaze us is the picturephone, which made its way to the Museum of Science and Industry this past week. It is unique, and opens new worlds in fast changing times. Even before the innovation was revealed to the public for the first time, comedians quipped about the complications which might arise. More seriously, the new service has been used in many ways. Two deaf teen-a^Vs, 1,000 ,miles apart, communicated by lip reading;; a Chicago mother saw her serviceman son for the first time in many months; and a Chicago industrialist interviewed personally an East coast applicant for an important sales job. With such creations of science, we have much still to look forward to. Probably none of us would admit to being ready for Christmas on Nov. 19 -- and most of us haven't even started our shopping -- but we learned this week from two youngters that "it's later than you think." The Plaindealer's first letter to Santa arrived from two little ones known only as Billy and Bonnie. They know what they want in their stockings this year, and mother and dad had better take their cue from the requests listed. RETARDED GROUP PLANS IMPORTANT BUSINESS SESSION NAME ENUMERATOR FOR TOWNSHIP FARM CENSUS (Continued from P:i£o 1) LeROY OLSEN "Over 18,000 meif,'women and children have been served by McHenry hospital during the past eight years", stated Mr. Pollock, "and now that our Hospital, Memorial Gifts, and Business and Professional divisions are well under way, we are initiating our Area division campaign, in order that everyone who has been served by McHenry hospital will have the opportunity to help share in the financing and construction of our new $1,500,000 hospital facility." "One out of every eight of us will need hospital care this year, and with our new 137- patient bed hospital, we want to be sure that we will be able to provide the best and most up-to-date health and medical care possible." "With this humanitarian objective in mind", he continued, "we are asking everyone to invest in the present and future welfare of their families and their community." ' Other area citizens who arc leaders in the Area division campaign are Mrs. Herbert Engdahl, Mrs. Wayne E. Keller and Harlan Shaw, who are serving as section leaders; also Mrs. Charles J. Miller, Mrs. Robert C. Newkirk, Mrs. George D. Jones, Mrs. Fred Bond, Mrs. Jack Smithson, Mr. Stanley Lezak, Mr. Elmer Stange, Mrs. Mo Domoto and Stange, Mrs. Mo Domoto, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Winters and Mr. Joseph C. Grobol, serving as district chairmen. Other lenders are Mrs. James Widen, Mrs. Richard PL Garner. Mrs. William A. Davidson, Mrs. William Boyd Andrews, Mrs. Alan M. Freund and Mrs. Ronold L. Braun, who are serving us group chairmen. Virgil Pollock was re-elected president of the board, and John G. Sterling as secretary and treasurer. Richard Zukowski was named vice-president. It was also announced at this meeting that the third annual fund raising dinner dance is slated for Tuesday, Nov. 24, at Martinetti's in Crystal Lake. Comedian Paul Gray, who has appeared on the Ed Sullivan, Steve Allen, and many other shows, and who has performed, by invitation, for the President of the United States, will be featured. Dancing will follow the floor show. Tickets may be purchased from any of the board members or at the Mental Health center, 3514 West Waukegan, McHenry. MANY SCOUT TROOPS PLAN COURT OF HONOR jured and neither were JoAnne Plucinski and three children, Allen, Renee and Steven, or Lynn King, passengers in two of the cars. King was blamed for failure to have his car under control. Werner Genot of Wonder Lake was treated at Memorial hospital Friday for injuries sustained when his auto crashed on Charles road, north of Woodstock. Genot was travelling east when he lost control and his car went into a ditch, hitting a telephone pole and striking an embankment. Carl H. Swanson of McHenry was only slightly injured when his car collided with another driven by Deane Comperda of Crystal Lake at Hillside and Terra Cotta roads. Miss Comperda told state police her brakes failed when she attempted to stop. She was ticketed for failure to stop for the sign and for driving without a valid operator's license. Firemen from the Lakemoor station were called to extinguish a slough fire about 6 o'clock last Thursday evening, the fifth since last April in the same location. While/ such conflagrations are usually not serious because of their location, this particular slough is very close to several homes and there has been general concern. Some residents of the area believe that because of the great number of fires in the sam^place, they are not an accident. Firemen and others in the area are keeping a close watch. The McHenry County Association for Retarded Children will bold a monthly meeting at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 24, in the Wonder Lake Bib\e church. The business session will include a report by Mrs. Marge Healless of the successful dance held on Nov. 14 at the VFW in McHenry, a discussion of a visit to the association board by Mrs. Wood, licensing representative from the Department of Children and Family Services, and plans for an association Christmas party. Guest speaker of the evening will be William Higgins, Woodstock, who will tell of the civic works of the Moose lodge, and of his experiences as cochairman of the lodge civic affairs committee. Recently he was a part of the lodge group who presented a generous donation to the association to aid the training center in Wonder Lake. Guests are always welcome, as well as any parents of retarded children of the county. To obtain information or request a ride to this meeting, call Mrs. William E. Pierce, McHenry, a member of this association. It seems that Friday, the thirteenth, took a reverse trend this time. Even the weatherman changed his mind last Friday to bring us a continuation of some of the nicest fall weather we've seen in many years. K. A. F. ASSESSORS MEET Nearly 200 property tax assessors met at Northern Illinois university Monday and Tuesday of this week. Among them were Eva Bacon, Paul J. Doherty, Gjeorge Erber and Henry M. Nell of the McHenry vicinity. PLAN SPECIAL THANKSGIVING CHURCH RITES St. John the Baptist church in Johnsburg is planning for a special Thanksgiving Day ceremony in addition to high Masses at 8 and 9 o'clock. Tables for food used in the Thanksgiving Day meal will be located in the sanctuary and a special blessing will be invoked on the food. At 10:30 in the morning, a Bible service will be conducted by the youth of the parish. This will include readings from the Book of Psalms, the Epistles and Gospels, patriotic and religious hymns, a Homily, distribution of Holy Communion, Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament, and a blessing of the harvest. Anyone in the area interested is invited to attend and participate. Most of the 162 Boy^ Scout, troops in the Blackhawk^rai Council, Boy Scouts of America are also planning a court) of honor in late November forlthe presentation of advancement awards and for interesting/new Tenderfoot Scouts as a feature of this fall's Frontier roundup, Warren Sparks, the Scout commissioner, announced. Cub Scouts, the 8, 9 and 10- year-old members of the Boy Scouts of America, are following the Cub Scout Genius theme during November in order to challenge the creative imaginations of fathers and sons. Each lad-and-dad team is given a bag of identical scrap objects to dream up and build the most unusual "invention" that will be judged at the monthly pack meeting, Sparks said. The high-school-age Explorers are holding special fall activities in their posts. Suggested activities include the Fitness Fair, adding competition and challenge to the standard physical fitness tests, and events related to Youth Measures Up, a program of action developed at the 2nd National Explorer Delegate conference held at the University of Kansas last August. The 143 Cub Scout packs, Boy Scout troops, and Explorer posts in the Blackhawk Area council are extending special invitations to boys to join Scouting during the Frontier roundup, Sparks said.

Enumerators have be6ri named in McHenry county for the 1964 Census of Agriculture, Crew Leader Gladys M. Roper said this week. Enumerators in McHenry county belong to a force of 23,- 000 throughout the nation employed temporarily by the U. S. Bureau of the Census for this year's Census of Agriculture. A Census of Agriculture is taken every five years in the years ending in "4" and "9" to gather needed, up-to-date information on the nation's agricultural resources and production. Such information is vital in making decisions affecting many segments of the U. S. economy. Data gathered include the number and size jof farms, acreage and harvest yx crops, livestock inventory, iiw formation on farm equipment and improvements, farm products sold, and on some production expenditures. Information also will be collected on use of fertilizers, insecticides and berhicides. Audrey Kinsala has been appointed to work in Greenwood and McHenry townships. MENTAL HEALTH PROGRAM "Today's Health," a nationally known magazine, featured the new Centralia Children's Center and the Illinois Mental Health program in its November issue. Howard G. Earl, in a six-page article on the operation of the $15.5 million Warren G. Murray Children's center, pointed out that the 14-building facility reflects a new mental health program initiated in Illinois four years ago. It is designed to decentralize the care of the mentally retarded and the mentally ill by including the community in the whole concept of mental patient care, the story states.
