MSCULLOM LAKE NEWS EVE LEVESQUE 385-4141 VETERAN OF MEXICAN REVOLT found DEAD A man who had a passionate love for the great outdoors, went to his death in a fitting manned Edward Doran, 74, who apparently died of a heart attack was found in a wooded area far from his home in Hot Springs, Ark., last Saturday afternoon. He had been missing from a routine errand since Tuesday, Jan. 30. The story appeared in Wednesday's issue of the Plaindealer. Mr. Doran, who took his daily constitutional whatever the weather conditions, succumbed to his final walk. During his many years of residence in the village, he was a familiar sight to all, as he traversed his beloved roads. Because of his war wound, the task was not an easy one, but there is no doubt that he avoided becoming a complete cripple because of his exercise. Our deepest sympathy to his widow, Winifred, who suffered the agony of not knowing his whereabouts through the many days of her husband's disappearance. The Dorans had been residents of the community since 1937 and had owned property since 1932. For the last several years, they spent their winters in Hot Springs, Ark. and moved there, permanently, last November. They celebrated their goldfen wedding anniversary on Jan. 20, 1967. They were left childless in 1955 when their son, Bob, died in a car accident. Their first born son, James, died of illness in 1933. In addition to his wife, Winnie, he also leaves five grandchildren - A02 James Doran, US Navy, Robert who is attending college in Missouri:. Kathleen and Kevin and Terry, at home. Services were held at St. Patrick's churchy Wednesday morning, with complete military honors. Burial was in All Saints cemetery, DesPlaines.

This bond issue would have provided classroom space to take care of expanding student enrollment in the elementary school through approximately 1070-71. The school administration attempted to show the urgent need for this new classroom space in open town meetings, through publicity in the local press, and through coffee clatches held in local homes. Because of the relative failure of these techniques, new methods of communication are being tested in the conrng campaign for the bond issue, to be voted on again March 9. First, through the newspapers, projects for the McHenry district, the need for more classroom space, the satisfaction of these needs with a middle school, descriptions of middle schools, and theories behind middle schools will be explained. Second, questions presented to administration and board members will be answered in newspapers. Third, a speakers' bureau making available board members and administrators to speak on the bond issue and on other related schdol subjects will be set up. Speakers will be available for any organized meeting. > Fourth, a committee of 100 speakers will be established to help -get out the vote on election day. If anyone has any questions they would wish to be answered publicly by the school board, they should write their questions to McHenry Public schools, Central Adminstration building, 3926 W. Main street, McHenry, or telephone the central offices at 385-7210. Speakers' bureau dates can be arranged by calling or writing same^address.
