Tom reports to Norfolk, Va., on May 1, being transferred from Great Lakes, where he has been stationed since his entry into the Navy, last August. Best wishes to the two young people who have military duty to conclude before they can seriously think of setting up a permanent home. REGISTRATION AND VOTING The deadline of May 13 is rapidly approaching for those voters who need to register in order to vote in the primary election, June 11. If you are a new resident, have turned 21 or changed your name since the last election, you must REGISTER! You can do so at the home of village clerk, Carol Bateman, who is also the village registrar. This election will be unique for the entire county, since we ' will be using voting machines for the first time. The machines are practically fool proof which means there should be fewer spoiled ballots. If you wish to become acquainted with the new method before election day, there is a machine set up in the McHenry State bank for use of the public. There will also be a sample unit in each of the polls, according to County Clerk, Vernon kays. We sincerely hope our residents will become acquainted with the new procedure. Tallying of ballots will be greatly speeded up under the new system. ATTEND DAUGHTER'S WEDDING Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gargaro of Richmond were in the receiving line when his daughter, Donna May, became the bride of James Webb Blackmon, Richmond, last Saturday. The nuptials took place at Grace Lutheran church, Richmond. Mrs. Gargaro is the daughter of Henrietta and Harold Vycital. Elaine and Frank's wee one, Darlene, 4, served as flower girl and was adorable in a long gown of pale yellow crepe. The reception was held at the American Legion home, McHenry. A FABULOUS FINALE This reporter was privileged to attend the Illinois Sesquicentennial program given by the MCHS choral groups at the high school, Sunday night. It was an entertaining and inspirational evening. Local youngsters who participated were Kathy Klapperich and DeeDee Levesque. Miss Klapperich, who has a lovely voice, is also an accomplished organist and was on stage for most of the program. Her parents, Eileen and Peter John, were also in the audience. At the conclusion of the evening, there was a small pause which left leader Adele Froehlich, somewhat at a loss, until armloads of gorgeous American Beauty roses were placed in her arms. The audience gave the one and only Adele, a standing ovation, which she richly deserved. It is with sorrow that the news was accepted that this is the last year for Miss Froehlich. We can't help but feel sorry for the multitute of young people who will miss her talent and graciousness!
