Two -- Page Four V A A THE MCHENBY PLAINDEALER LAKE NEWS 13VE L£V£SqU£ 385-3191 Ri Y LARY HEADS C TLLOM-KNOLL ASSOCIATION There was an excellent rep r e s e n t a t i o n o f i n t e r e s t e d members of the Gullom-Knoll association last Sunday when Ray Lary was named to the pos'; of presidency by a unanimous ballot cast by the group. Others elected .00 the same unanimous ballot were Ken Betts as vice president, Barbara Thacker for secretarial post and, Gail Johnson re-elected from treasurer. New trustees for two year terms include Dave Scarbrough, Roy Zody, Lowell Peterson, Gene Frost, Bill Gleeson and Walter Patzke. The name of Theresa Schultz was added to the roster when a previously named candidate declined. - Hold over trustees who have one more year to serve are Harry Berry, Allan McKim and this reporter. Spontaneous applause was given when Ray Lary picked up the gavel from Rog Kinsey whom he succeeds after two very productive years. Applause was also given to Barbara Thacker and to Gail Johnson for their excellent attendane record and for the accomplishments of the past year. Since there has been difficulty in the past, getting trustees to attend meetings once elected, a move was made to enforce the by-laws stipulating that three missed meetings in a row is reason for removal of that officer from the post and a new one appointed. Verbal orchids were bestowed on all who contributed so much to the Somewhat successful summer festival. It was not lack of work or co-operation which made the financial gains smaller than anticipated -- but the weather -- as you all know. The club still realized just over $200 for the event. Hsd it rained -- wow! we'd have REALLY been in the red! Well done. One of Mr. Lary's first appointments was to name an au liting committee and it will be headed by Don Parenti, Myra Murray and Theresa Sciultz will also serve. Heads of standing committets will be appointed at the ne.tt meeting which will be he d Sunday, Oct. 3, at 3 p.m. In the beachhouse. Village Board The president and trustees will meet for their regular meeting on Monday, Sept. 20, at 8 p.m. in the beachhouse. The public is invited and encouraged to attend. Work Party Needed For Sunday It's that time of the year when the raft should be beached for the fall and winter season and plenty of strong arms are needed! The invitation is especially extended to the older teen bbys who made good use of the diving platform during the summer. Chuck Thacker and Harry Berry have volunteered to be on hand but are hoping for plenty of assistance. The raft is a mighty heavy piece of lurriher consi ruction so will YOU be there? The men plan to get under way . about'2 p.m. Jake Levesque Has Surgery Monday Jake Levesque, former president of the village for 10 years, went under the surgeon's scalpel about 10:15 Monday morning. The operat i o n w a s t o c o r r e c t t w o sources of infection found during a routine physical checkup. He was expected to be confined to McHenry hospital for a week to 10 days. As soon as he gets over the really rough part, we know how much sunshine he will spread throughout the wards. Even if he is my husband, we're still gonna say "He's a GREAT guy!" : r -- pectively, for the past three years, will not run again, and you can't blame them. They have certainly earned the right to sit back and let others carry on with the fine program which they have mapped out. Following/the business meeting, the gals played games and it seems as though Marge Stacknick, Marie McKim, Elma Nelson, Emma Pyritz, Sally Olsen, Lois Parenti, Marge Olsen and this reporter "made out". Marie Hojnacki and Lois Parenti supplied the "tasty p a s t r y " a n d S a l l y O l s e n brought the coffee and cream, as always. Next meeting will be held Thursday, Oct. 14,' at 8 p.m. in the beachouse. The women enjoyed meeting Mrs. Elizabeth Fisher and her Gleeson. Both families are new residents and we hope they will continue to join us. Thursday, September 16, 1965 FINEST IN FAUCETS For New Homes and Old WEBER Plumbing & Heating 2801 W. Lincoln Road 385-0855 Hospital Patients Now Released The names of Ray DeWitt and Frank' Branham were listed on the McHenry hospital patient list last week. Ray was in for a broken ankle sustained when he was thrown by a motor scooter which developed a\ flat tire and caused him to lose control. The accident happened in Hebron where he was visiting his married daughter; Pat, and family. Frank Branham who had been doctoring a serious throat infection was finally hospitalized for two days. He has returned to his job but is still having pain from the series of shots he had to have. School Shelter Being Painted Residents in the area of W. Parkview and Gate 4 can breathe a sigh of relief now that the shelter in that location is being beautified. Frank Kurth has undertaken the job of replacing broken paneling and painting the works -- inside and out. It will also have a contrasting trim when finished. We sure are most grateful to Frank for his civic pride. He also puts his talents to work, instead of just talking about them! The above project was approved by members of the Ladies of the Lake at their first fall meeting held Thursday, Sept. 9. At this time, the gals were informed that the annual election of officers will be held in October. Lois Parenti and Marge Olsen will handle the job of coming up with a slate of candidates.

We wish him a speedy recovery, but your messages would certainly cheer him. CHEESE FESTIVAL THEME SINCERE GALA "THANK YOU" Now fully recovered from a devastating tornado and a recent hurricane, Monroe, Wis., only a few hours drive into Wisconsin from McHenry, celebrates Cheese Days Sept. 18 and 19. Grateful Monroe area citizens were more determined than ever to proceed with the plans for holding the "Cheese Celebration of the Nation" as scheduled. Cheese Days traditionally are keyed to a desire by Green county residents to play host to those who enjoy?' its fine "Disa 'N' Data" Cong r a t u l a t i o n s t o A r t Stuhlfeier who was awarded his gold pin and a new apron for 50 years membership in the Masonic order. He is extremely proud of the honor and well he might be- -Elma and Earl Nelson were thrilled with a visit from El ma's cousin, Gordon Ladig of Ft. Wayne. Indiana. He "popped" in on them Saturday night after a surprise phone call. They have not seen him for years, but when the two were children, they were practically raised together. ... A very unhappy lad was Tom Kacprowicz last week when he discovered crayon marks all over his new car. The damage was done while he and Donna were parked at a local business establishment ...we wonder at the identity of the senior citizen (grey haired) who was casually riding her bicycle mid Monday morning. Certainly looked like she was enjoying herself!-•• Marge and Barney Graff, former residents and now located in Florida, spent two months with daughter and husband -- the Ed Stacknicks, this past summer. So very nice to see them- • Tom Olsen and Don Hayes are certain to have reached California by this time. They dropped messages from St. Louis; Gorham, Kansas where they saw Tom's aunt and uncle -- Mr. and Mrs. Joe Schon; and from Denver. Wonderful trip for two nice guys.

'Nut her news week down the drain and here's hoping sunny skies continue to prevail!" See you next week? Swiss and other foreign types of cheese, year in and year out. Because of the wonderful help extended by many hundreds of volunteer workers, from near and far, after the April 11 catastrophe, this community now has added reason for expressing its appreciation through a hospitable weekend of fun and festivity Sept. 18 and 19. This major miracle would not have been possible without the tireless assistance of the swarms of volunteers who are backing up regular construction crews, the Red Cross, police, firemien and public utility service employees. That's the x^eason why the Cheese Days theme this year will stress the community's sincere and heartfelt "Thank You" to everyone -- to those of its own people and organizations who performed yeoman service and to those who rushed in from other areas when help was needed. Palm Sunday's tornado actually spared most of this community's "New Old World" look -- the many buildings remodeled in recent years with New Swiss architectural motif. One of the casualties, however, was the new Swiss styled outdoor theater-bandshell in Twining Park. That structure, built through funds donated by groups and individuals, was leveled to the concrete base. Plans already are under way for rebuilding. Barring any further disasters -- such as the "bomb" -- battered Monroe and its helpful Green county neighbors anticipate that Cheese Days 1965 will surpass any of the previous celebrations. They'll be ready for throngs of visitors which should exceed by many thousands the nearly 100,000 who showed up for the 1955 program.
