Thursday, April 22, 1965 "- '->5® THE McHENRY PLAINDEALEIj Section Three -- Page Five MCCULLOM LAKE NEWS EVE LEVESQUE 385-3191 OPEN BIDS FOR VILLAGE ROAD PROJECT MAY 10 Outgoing president of the village J. R. Levesque appointed Art Nelson, a holdover t?ustee, to be in chargc of opening the bids for the Spring Road rebuilding project at the last meeting of the board held Monday, April 12, in the beachhouse. May 10 was the date set and the time is 3 p.m. At this time, Neal Giuntoli of Baxter and Woodrnan, village engineers, will also be present. AH members of the board were present with the exception of Trustee Rog Kinsey who was on flood duty in LaCrosse, Wis. Mr. Giuntoli reported to the board that the plans and specifications for the road job received state aproval with a special commendation on the very fine presentation of the work. • A report from financial chairman Bill Creutz and treasurer Earl Nelson, both of whom complete their term of office following Tuesday's election, show that there are NO outstanding bills against the village and that we are entirely in the black with no anticipation warrant in effect. Along these lines, President Levesque reported that our village also received commendation from County treasurer Audrey Walgenbach on the budgets which have been prepared. Even the great expense, not anticipated, of heavy snow plowing and sanding bills did not send us into the RED. The president and trustees met with the village clerk yesterday to canvas the votes of the election. The next meeting will be held Monday, April 26, when Mr. Levesque will swear in the new^y elected president. The ceremony will be held in the beachhouse at 8 p.m. Married 25 Years By a stroke of fate, the poker session which Chet Helwig usually attended with a group of his chums was called off and he and another friend decided to crash a neighborhood party. Here he met the gal who was •destined to become his bride a short seven months later. Gertrude Jelens and Chet Helwig plighted their troth at St. Stephen's church on April 20, 1940, at 5 p.m. The church is no longer in existence, having been torn down to make way for an expressway. Relatives on both sides attended the service and the informal reception. Chet joined the Navy in October 1943 and his tour of duty covered some 60,000 miles. His beloved Gert was with him for 45,000 miles of the way. The two purchased their home on Hickory Drive in 1951 and both were active in all civic endeavors until poor helath intervened. Gert was one of the founding mothers of the Ladies of the Lake. The two owned and operated their own upholstering service for eight years, and enjoyed a marvelous reputation for quality workmanship. They left our village in March and are now residing east of town until their plans are completed for a move to California. For the occasion of their silver wedding anniversary they "wined and dined" in Wilmot with Chet's sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Ritter. It has been a privilege to know these grand people and we wish them nothing but good luck in all future endeavors! Aid To Tornado Victims In addition to Chief Earl Murray, his officers Ken Loesch, George Scarbrough, and Jack Schlofner and trustee Gene Shigley assisted local law enforcement agents in Island Lake following their tragic tornado. Bob Petersen also was on hand for three nights following the devastation there. Through Elma Nelson, president of the Ladies of the Lake, a wonderful volunteer group of local women rounded up clothing, bedding, and food for those left homeless by the holocaust. Two truckloads were delivered to Eleanor Reid of the American Legion auxiliary for further transportation to the victims last Wednesday morning. All who shared their bounty with the ' unfortunate people must be highly commended and the gals who assembled the stuff showed how much organization can accomplish. Elma Nelson Mayda Shigley, Ruth Radtke, Marge Olsen, Liz Cable, Gerry Jensen, Irene Sales, Mickey Murray, Joan Lundy, Lois Parenti, Petey-Schmidt, and Harriet McNamara formed the backbone of "operation--tornado relief". Those who still wish to help may send contributions to the Wauconda National Bank, Wauconda, 111., and mark it Island Lake tornado relief fund. Generosity Makes Easter Party Huge Success About 125 youngsters through the age of 12 were thrilled with the annual Cullom-KnOll Easter egg hunt last Saturday afternoon. Rich t Johnson managed the affair with his usual aplomb and organizaiion and was aided by Frank Kurth, Bob Ferandez, Barbara Thacker, Karen Mc- Kim, Dawn Parent i, Mary Aalto, R.oger Kinsey and numerous other youngsters who helped hide the eggs. Valuable contributions to the success of the hunt were made by Madeline and Sam Nathanson, Bernice and Whitey Bjork and Jean and Hugh McDonald. There were lovely prizes. Winners were Lorrie Gleeson, Sheryl Lundy, Sandy Betts, Lynn Gleeson, Laurence and Brad Whitney. Over 40 doz^n eggs were donoted by generous residents for which Rich Johnson was exceedingly grateful. Nephew Named "Teacher of the Year" Winifred Doran was thrilled with a message informing her that one of her nephews, Edward Lang, 37, was named "Industrial teacher of the year" in Nebraska last week. His name was admitted to national competition in Tulsa, Okla. The young man who lives in Gretna, Neb., teaches at Nebraska University and has his bachelor, master and doctor's degree in teaching. His brother, a resident of Simi, Calif., is art director of a motor magazine, and Win's other nephew, a former captain in the Army, teaches in Palatine, and also has his master's degree in teaching.

"The Best of Everything for the Builder" Or Highway 31 South of Main Street McHenry, HI. Phone, 385-1424 Former Resident Dies Mrs. Mary Danielson Cooney, affectionately known as "Danny", and who was a nonegenarian, passed away in Chicago a week ago Saturday and was buried the following Monday. She made her home in the village for many years, but moved to Chicago' to live with her granddaughter, Mrs. Jean Markovic, when she could no longer care for herself. Two husbands and three children preceded her in death. She is survived by her granddaughter and five great-grandchildren. -r Home On Furlough Young Army Private Bill Cable E2 is home with his parents until April 30 having just completed 12 weeks of basic training at Fort Knox, Ky.

Her health is improving slowly and we know she would appreciate cheery greetings. "Pride Has No Pain" Not to be outdone by hubby Duffy,Ella Benson is recovering from a broken rib also. It happened under unusual circumstances which had best come from her. She was certainly stoic through the entire ordeal. Servicemen, Students Home For Holiday Vi and Ben Gates have enjoyed having son; Bob, home from Glynco, Ga., for a week. They have also been visited by Mr. and Mrs. Bill Gates, Jr., and tykes--Nancy* and Mike of Grand Prairie, Texas.

Around the Shores I guess this week's big news was the tornado that hit around us last Sunday. No doubt all of you have been hearing sad and horrible stories of the storm. It is hard to realize that everything one owns can be swept away in less than a minute. Three of our men Bob Peterson, Frank Jacek and Charles Wagner, in the civil defense auxiliary police were put to work in the devastated' area. A special relief fund has been set up to collect money for the victims. The Wauconda National Bank is headquarters for the Island Lake area and the First National- Bank at Crystal Lake for Crystal Lake area. All of us should realize how fortunate we were not to have been affected by this storm and send in a donation to both of the banks mentioned. Barb and Ray Pogor had dinner at the A1 Mieritz's home on Saturday, ending the evening with cards. On Sunday guests of the Pogors were Ray's cousin and her husband from Chicago, Mr. and Mrs. Poplawski and their son, John. Annette Cicchini was confirmed on Saturday. Her sponsor was Bernice Musielak. Ronald Olzewski was also in the group of young folks who were confirmed that day. Audrey and Chuck Whitney attended two confirmations on Sunday. A buffet dinner was held in the Park Ridge VFW hall and Chuck's niece, Bonnie Weber, and Peter Dudesek were confirmed. The Whitneys were unaware of the extent of the storm until coming back at 10 o'clock. When driving through Island Lake and seeing all the police cars and activity they wondered what had happened, not realizing the storm had hit t here. Joyce and Howie Lexow decided to go to the Brookfield Zoo on Sunday and give Beth and Lee a treat. When they were ready. to leave for home they turned on the car radio and heard about the tornado. Taking the Tollway back they arrived at Elgin at Rt. 31 and were,turned back. The police were not allowing anyone through, so they had to find their way home by side roads until they finally go back. It was a relief to find everything in good shape, except for some water in the basement. Well, see you next week.
