Section One -- Pag* Eight THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday. January 6.1966 ; 'BLOOD BANK OF McHENRlfJOINS Vl1 HOSPITALPLAN Anthony Corcoran, Kiwanis chairman of the Blood Bank committee, is pleased to announce that • after negotiations •the local Blood Bank is now affiliated with Michael Reese Cooperative Blood Replacement plan. Mr. Corcoran states that this affiliation should be of interest to all citizens of the community inasmuch \as Michael Reese is one of the\oldest and largest hospitals or organizations in the United States operating a blood replacement center. The affiliation will be particularly helpful since the Michael Reese foundation is large enought so that when r aire types of blood are needed or Unusual circumstances arise, there will be no problem of fulfilling the need. The McHenry Kiwanis) club will be actively soliciting >blood donors in the months ahead in order to expand the existing Blood Bank to serve more people in the community. At the present time, any member of a family who donates covers -his immediate family for ' and wherever || b needed. This is made posx - h The American Association of Blood Banks Which * n nationwide clearing bouse and is therefore able V guarantee blood replacement anywhere in the country. If a member joined the plan through his local McHenry Blood Bank Program, and received transfusions in a California hospital, h i s credit would be provided through the clearing house program. It should be stressed that all past donors are covered under the Michael Reese Cooperative BlQOd Replacement plan. Credits were transferred from the C o m m u n i t y B l o o d c e n t e r o f Chicago to the Michael Reese nlsm. All existing coverage continues. iwr. Corcoran stresses the fact that one of the Kiwanis ob- .1* • fives is to cover all citizens maintaining a full time residence in the M cHenr^ Khigh school district. This can be accomplished by a sufficient number of volunteers donating blood. At present, only those families are covered who have Kad someone specifically donate for them. There are now approximately one-third the required number to cover the entire community. All healthy individuals between 21 and 59 years of age (persons between 18 and 21 years of age, can donate with written permission from their parent or guardian) jM#tin' and n ( .Meander 19' W '• - MM. (Continued from Page 1) magnanimous attitude of some that there is no such thing as a bad boy ( or a bad adult), we are convinced that These troublesome individuals contribute less of a problem than most of us think. It's the every-day disregard by great numbers of "good people" in observing common courtesies that takes much of the joy out ®f life. In spite of this gloomy outlook which includes us among the culprits of society making necessary resolutions, there is a brighter side. In our community, and very close to dll of us among our friends, are individuals who compensate for our omissions. They are the people who seem tireless in their efforts to improve not only their own lives but those of all about them. • Probably few of McHenry's s e r v i c ^ o r g a n i z a t i o n s e v e r learn "of the great amount of good they accomplish, particularly at holiday time. Mrs. Margaret Karstens of 4.'!20 Prairie avenue sent us a note tttis week with the idea Tnai the general public might be interested to learn of the generosity of such groups as the V.F.W. and Legion posts and their auxiliaries. Kiwanis and Moose, among others. . It is heartwarming to everyone to know that there are such organizations in our midst who helped make this Christmas, and others in the past, happier for Mrs. Karstens and many more. , K. A. F.

Us. •• SARI KAYSSER A candid, humorous narration titled "It's Junk Shopping Time" is to be given by Sari Kaysser of Lisle, 111., at the Jan. 14 meeting of the McHenry Woman's club, at the Community Methodist church at 1 p.m. "The busier you are the more you schedule your time," explains Sari, who organizes her days to include modeling, free lance writing, lecturing and homemaking. Mother of three small children, Mrs. K'ysser schedules model appointments for herself and her children through an agency. She appears as a lecturer for varied dub programs and purr sues a fascinating hobby wtfich she calls "Junkshopping." She introduces her audience to the excitement of the search through antique stores, garage sales, junk shops and Maxwell street areas for treasures. An expert in "junkshopping," Sari uses more than twenty of her junk-tumed-treasures to illustrate how an imaginative touch can turn virtually anything into decorative accessories, wall hangings, collages or even gifts. As a speaker, she has made various TV appearances, including the Lee Phillip Show: Recently she was named "Daisy Dodge" and aippeared at Yankee Stadium before 45,- 000 persons gathered to see the White Sox play. Articles, such as "Junkshopping," "M a x w e 11 Street," "Christmas Decorations," "Old Town" and cooking articles have appeared in various magazines and newspapers. Mrs. Donald Gerlitz, first vice-president and program chairman, will be chairman of the day. Mrs. F. Vaughan Jones will be on hand as tea hostess. READ THE CLASSIFIEDS HIGHLIGHTS OF -YEAR JUST.. PAST^n, INDICATE GROWTH (Continued , from Page 1) ward and setting new boundaries for all wards. Establish Blood Bank The same month a new blood bank, wide in scope, was established under sponsorship of the Kiwanis club. A new veterans' post came into being in Mai*ch, the AMVETS, named in memory of Eugene Weideman who lost his life during World War II. March will be remembered as the month, when the luck of the Irish ran oi3». With the dawn of St. Patrick's day, a continuing snow fall closed schools and vitually stopped traffic. Further indication of growth was revealed in April with announcement that the assessed valuations in the cttitfity had risen $12,386,406 in oije year, reaching $430,202,181 in 1964. The elements frowned again that month when the worst | jornado in memory came close to McHenry, . striking hard at Bay View Beach and Island Lake in addition to neighboring Crystal Lake. Defeat Referendum The month of May opened on an unfortunate note for education. A vote for construction of a new high school, which later in the year was to meet favor with the public, was rejected at the polls by a vote of 1,657 to 1,457. At the same time, final steps were taken by the city to install chlorination facilities for treatment at the sewage disposal ^plant. The city also acted through an ordinance to annex approximately 600 acres of land to be known as Boone Valley. One of the much discussed pieces of business in spring was an option signed by McHenry Savings and Loan to buy three and a half acres of land owned by the Legion, on which the post building stands. No future plans for the property were disclosed. Reopen Court After considerable effort on the part of many people, Branch 3 magistrate court was returned to McHenry the first of July. Also in July, a $65,000 road improvement project was nearing completion on River road. A third major annexation came in 1965 when the third MENTAL HEALTH MEETING SET FOR IAN. 19 (Continued - from Page 1) change in the method of operation-- the size of the staff has" decreased slightly. Both adults and children are aided; about one-fourth of the referrals come from -a patient or from a relative or friend. Another fourth comes from physicians. Schools account for about one out of every eight patients. Most of the rest come from court or police referral or from a state agency or private * family- type service. "We make it a policy to talk to everyone referred to us, arranging for a psychiatrist to discuss a person's problems with him," explained Maily. "If further help is needed, we sofjfoetimes have a waiting list. Our center uses a team approach in its diagnostic service-- a. psychiatrist, social worker and psychologist." Mally stressed that mental illness is a medical problerv and diagnosis and treatment are a medical responsibility. Dr. Salvad or Martinez, who has been associated with the center since its start in I960, spends one day a week working as a psychiatrist. He is also the staff psychiatric director. The board of directors meets monthly and has established a policy .of meeting in different communities. This emphasizes the county-wide connotations of the\organization and encourages cm?en§ in various communities ' tdf attend meetings. The meeting' date is jhe third Wednesday of^every month. Between and 50 percent of all the people who go to a hospjtal or to a doctor are suffering from emotional disorders, often reflected in physical ailinents--very frequently, headaches, asthma, ulcers, etc. UCP Kick-Off Dinner Jan. 6 (Continued form Page 1) Marciano, who will be the principal speaker, will arrive in McHenry that afternoon from his Florida home. Also on the prograrr^ will be a professional -magician, Marshall Brodien, ywho appears on television quite frequently, as well as Mrs. Talutha Tesmer and Joanne Armstrong, who will do song and dance routines. A fine orchestra for dancing will be on the program. Tickets are available by contacting Mrs. John Boehm, and since there are no reserved tables, it is suggested that an early arrival be planned. The annual ifund drive, the .13-Minute March, of ' United Cerebral Palsy, is scheduled for Jun. 9th and will continue thrO'.igh Jan. 23rd, to allow for changes in weather. Besides the volunteers mentioned in last Week's papers, Mrs. Henry Nell is chairman for Johnsburg, Mrs. Josephine Hunter, Lakemoor, Ed Murphy, Mrs. Josephine Hansen, Mrs. Mary Lu Bauden and Mrs. Pat Boettcher, Wonder Lake, and many others too numerous to list. Anyone wishing to volunteer to be of service in this worthwhile fund drive may do so by calling the organizations president, Mrs. Boehm. It should be noted tfraf in many areas of the county, teen-agers will be Hanley addition was taken into the city. August also saw the dedication of McHenry hospital's new self-care unit in memory of the late Bernard Bollman. With late fall, the big controversy seemed to be over location of the proposed new court house in Woodstock. As the curtain came down on 1965, the decison of the county board was 15 to 12 for a location , west of the city of Woodstock.
