SAVINGS BONDS Urge Parents To Withdraw Driving Jiights Of Minors Secretary of State Paul Powell, commenting on the weekend riots at Lake Geneva, Wis., reminded Illinois parents whose minor children might have been involved of their privilege of withdrawing consent to drive for their children under 21 years of age. Mr. Powell, who asked for the legislation and received it two years ago, pointed out that all the parents of an errant youth need do is to request the Secretary of State's office in writing to cancel the minor's driving privilege, and the Secretary of State must comply with the request. "And while I am on this subject," Secretary Powell said, "I want to pay the highest tribute I can to that twicebrave Marine, Leston Renth of Chicago, who sought to stop desecration of the American flag during the Lake Geneva riot, and was severely beaten for his efforts." "It is not just disturbing, it is downright disgusting and even frightening, that a young American who has been wounded on foreign soil fighting for his country's flag gets beaten for defending it in an American community," Mr. Powell said. "It must have been a proud moment for him, though, to watch twelve other Marine veterans of Viet Nam raise another American flag over that same spot a couple of days later, and stand guard over it," Secretary Powell said. Mr. Powell noted that the few get the headlines, while the majority of American and Illinois youth are respectful young citizens. He said, towever, in studying accounts of the rioting, he has discovered that this is the fifth year such incidents had occurred at Lake Geneva, and each year the number of rioters has increased. Removal of driving privileges may be one way of deterring Illinois young people from taking part in such disturbances, and "I wofild urge parents to exercise this right granted to them by the law, not only in this case, but in other incidents where irresponsible acts on the part of minors may occur and where parents feel the need to restrain their children from further activity of such a nature," he said. The law passed by the 1965 session of the General Assembly, effective as of January 1, 1966, provides that the Secretary of State shall cancel the license or permit of any minor under the age of 21 years iq»n receiving the verified written request of the person who consented to the application of such minor that the license or permit be cancelled. Any parent wishing to take such action may direct his request to Secretary of State Paul Powell, Capitol Building, Springfield, 62706.v SIDEWALK SPECIAL Women's Sweat Shirts Short Sleeve -- Nationally Advertised $4.00 Value all size and colors GlifSstone's 1219 N.

Both men have served the organization with vigor and dedication and are deserving of election, in this reporter's opinion. Gerry Jensen was nominated for secretary and Ray Fisher has been restated for treasurer. Gerry has been doing as outstanding job as acting secretary, and we that she has accc mination. Ray Fisher the financial records, which were in a chaotic state, and has restored them to order, in the past year. The club will be In good hands with these four people. Nominating committee was Barbara Thacker.Len Jensen, Jr., and Ray Fisher. At the election, nominations will be accepted from the floor, also. Trustees named for the two year positions are Bill Walter, Theresa Schultz, Chuck Thacker, Ray Lair and this reporter. Jim Conway and A1 Kanak have been slated for two year terms. Ed Car on and Len Jensen, Jr., have one more year to serve. An amendment to the bylaws was prepared, amending Art. V, Sec. 9 and will be classified as Sec. 9a. It reads "Only one member of a family can hold the office of president, vice president, secretary or treasurer." The issue will be brought to a vote before the assembly at the July 30 meeting. TARANTULA FOR SOUVENIR Carol and Tom Bateman brought the most unusual in souvenirs home from their recent southwest junket which covered several thousand miles when they presented Elma and Earl Nelson witfi a live female tarantula. The creature was installed in a handsome cage, complete with cactus, and live insects for company. Contrary to public opinion, the American Peoples Encyclopedia states "Usually no serious effects are caused by the bite of the species, though intense pain often results." Tom captured the creature in a coffee can about 4 a.m. at White Sands Proving Grounds, N.M. The two left our shores Sunday, June 25, and arrived home last Saturday. On the trip west, they visited ifoyal Gorge, Colo., Monarch Pass, traveled the Million Dollar Highway to Cortez, stopped at Mesa Verde National Park, viewed the Blue Mesa reservoir and the new project, Blue Mesa Lake. TTiey also made stops at The Arches National Monument, Capital Reefs and Bryce Caiiyon National Parks, Glen Canyon Dam in Page, Ariz., and then on to the Grand Canyon. A tour of Montezuma's Castle National Monument, the cliff dwelling ruins, and Casa Grande National Monument was also part of their itinerary. They finally arrived at their destination in Tucson. Carol and Tom stayed with Tom's aunt, Mrs. Zelma Maynard, and cousins, Terry and Jan Kennedy. One relative was in Guaymas, Mexico, and her husband and Tom flew down for a short visit with Judy Lowe. During the Bate mans' stay in Tucson, one of the local papers carried the story that a forest fire was raging out of control for two days, 20 miles from downtown Tucson. The couple made a quick trip to Nogales, Mexico, for "night" seeing. The girlie shows and other tourist attractions were in full swing. Carol and Tom started home on Wednesday with just a few hours' sleep along the road, until their arrival home on Saturday. Their youngsters were farmed out during the two week hiatus. The two traveled with two tarantulas, but the male (half yellow body), did not survive the trip and is being mounted for posterity. CHINESE TORTURE, MODERN VERSION It came to our ears, just how some area wives respond to real or imagined wrongs, on the part of their husbands. One irate spouse packed two dry peanut butter sandwiches and an empty thermos for a construction worker. There was no water on the rig, either. He was still licking his palate, five hours later! Another packed a delicious lunch and took two bites out of the sandwich. This husband also opened two cold raw potatoes one hungry lunchtime. We do not reoommena-ihis type of punishment for a long and hapfry marriage, but it sure is funny! ALL STAR GAME SLATED FOR SUNDAY The best players from the Fits and Misfits have been slated for a ball game against the mechanics from O'Hare field for Sunday, July 16, starting at 2 p.m. The match was arranged through the efforts of Jack DeGeorge who regularly plays with the Fits. This should be a most exciting game and the public is invited. If the V.F.W. facilities are available, the' game will be played there. Interested parties may contact local pubs for verification of the place of the game. Local men who will be competing are leeson, Len Jensen, Jr., on way, Tom Olsen, Ed Caron, Jim Wyman, John Boyle, Jr., Ken Betts, Gene Adams, and Fred Matthesius.

JULY 4 ACTIVITIES SUCCESSFUL In spite of the frigid temperatures, there was plenty of activity at the beach for the holiday. Early tp the afternoon, our Little Leaguers entertained spectators with a game between their All Stars and Lakeland Park. The score of 13-1 in favor of the visitors was disappointing but the young lads put up a scrap. Delicious home made cakes were offered during the cake walk and several families received valuable awards. CAMPING TRIPS While Adeline Carter kept things in order at home, her husband, Herman, enjoyed a delightful fishing trip in East Rear skin Lake, Minn. He was accompanied by one of his working chums. Mrs. Carter entertained Mr. and Mrs. Vin Brewer of Mt. Prospect and nieces Kathy and Loretta Reading of Skokie, for a week. When Herman returns, the Carters, accompanied by sons - Rex and Chad - will go camping (Mi the Chain-of-Lakes for a few days. just great, and a thrilltowatch. The Fits have gone uown in defeat for the last two Sundays by scores of 9-5 on July 2 and 23-20 last Sunday. The Misfits are taking their victories with aplomb.

Organized cheering section for the Misfits are Sandy and Kairen Betts, Peggy CHalleran, Susie and D.G.Vycital, Margie Orton, Kathy Kroncke, and Donna Schiavone. They really add to the entertainment, and deserve commendation for their enthusiasm. AWAITING DIPLOMAS Daughter Chrys Levesque arrived home from five months in Europe on schedule, June 30. She completed her courses at the University of Strasbourg, France, and is entitled to two diplomas. She succeeded inpassing her superior examination, for which we are very proud.
