Lakeland Park Carole -Humann 385 1605 Red Cross Swim Lessons Start Monday, Aug. 9 The time is. drawing closer for the Red Cross swimming lessons to start this year. All the registrations are in and the classes are being drawn up and it won't be long before you will get a phone call telling you of the class time designated. Betsy Althoff has again been hired to teach the swimming classes. As in previous years they will be held at the West Beach also known as the Herzog beach, the deep ^each and other assorted nances in case you are confused. Ironically it is situated at the end of Beach road! As in previous years the beach is absolutely closed from the beginning of the first lesson each day until the end of the last scheduled lesson. Times will be announced as soon as possible so that everyone can be inconvenienced as little as possible. As usual the east beach otherwise only known as the shallow or little beach will be open for swimming all day. Several hundred children have learned to swim in the program which has been sponsored by the LPPOA for quite a few years. Help is badly needed from adults who are willing to give some time to the program. Call Pat Schooley at 385-0533 if you can give as little as half an hour.

NEWS BITS Ann Sullivan is still a patient at Children's Memorial hospital in Chicago and will be there for some time yet. She came through the surgery alright, but additional treat ment is necessary and lots of cards and still more prayers will help her on the road to recovery. She has received lots of them and they sure help to keep the spirits high. Summer is the lousiest time of all for an active twelve year old to be stuck in bed in the hospital. Tee and Buzz Bujak took a few days last week to take grandchildren, Robin and Scotty, to visit the Amish Village in Iowa. They had a great time and brought home lots of goodies including gorgeous wool sweaters to keep warm in next winter. Casey and Jane Miskovic are home again after a camping trip out West. They spent some time in Dodge City, Kansas, where Wyatt Earp and his pals .once reigned and went to New Mexico and were really im pressed with the beautiful white sands near the atomic testing grounds. People seem to adjust to environment and were skiing on the sand which seems a novel idea. They visited Elgin, Ariz., where Jane's brother, Elmer Putman, and his wife, Irene, live on a ranch which used to be a private boys school complete with swim ming pool. It's located in the valley between the mountains and what they consider roads were like trails to the visitors. A black bear came down out of the mountains to pay a call and prowled around the area. It's been so dry all summer that the water draws lots of wild animals. The Miskovics and Putmans visited Tombstone to celebrate the Putmans' anniversary at a restaurant there. They also took a short trip into Mexico at Nogales where they visited a restaurant in a cave, and saw many fine hand crafted items which on this side of the border sold for three times the price. They camped overnight at the Grand Canyon which is a breath taking sight in the early morning. They also went through the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert on their way to Albuquerque and visited the old part of town. Tney went to the Sandae Mountains on an aerial tramway, gulp; trail trips on the mountain tops were limited because of danger of forest fires. In Oklahoma they visited a buffalo ranch and on the final leg of the journey home they camped over night in New Salem park in Illinois before making the final run into good old McHenry. Sounds terrific and I'll bet they're already planning when they can go back. Baby Elizabeth JoAnn Heuer, daughter of George and Mary Beth Heuer, was christened last Sunday af ternoon, July 18, at St. Patrick's church in a baptismal service conducted by Father Cahill. Her Godparents were Betty Bertucci of Westchester and Jim Cox of Hanover Park. A party was held after the ceremony for twenty guests. LET THE ^ & if Super Circuit Add To A Super Summer!

And here comes the mailman and you haven't thought of anything? That's the feeling that I have right now. Not a thought in the head and not only has the mailman stopped here already, but now I'm going to have to chase him down the street waving my epistle. Where were all you people last week? Do all of you have broken dialing fingers? Don't you want to keep this column alive and well to return to Kay? It's impossible that everyone has joined a cloistered order of monks or nuns! Everyone isn't in bed with the three month flu or spots before the eyes or some other equally disastrous ill! Oh well, let's try again. Maybe this week the phone will ring again and then the column from Lakeland Park won't look like it came from some deserted village in the atomic bomb testing area. I shouldn't complain that much though, three times it rang with neWs so it isn't a complete disaster-only partially.

Meeting "Urges Retention Of Fort Sheridan At a Washington, D.C. meeting sponsored by Congressman Robert McClory, the continued full-strength presence of Ft. Sheridan was emphatically indicated by civilian and political leaders. Heading the Chicago delegation were Colonel Jack Riley, personal representative of Mayor Richard Daley; Edward Loeglin, board member, Thomas Coulter, chief executive officer of the Chicago Association of Commerce and Industry; Morris Leibman, civilian aide-at-large to the Secretary of the Army; and Colonel Emory Stoker, USA (Ret.), chairman of the "Save Ft. Sheridan committee"; and Samuel Lawton, Jr., former mayor of Highland Park, and co-chairman of a Citizens committee established by Senator Stevenson. The Chicago area delegation communicated that the need for Ft. Sheridan in the Chicago Metropolitan area is the same today as it was when Ft. Sheridan was established some 80 years ago. Present in behalf of the Secretary of the Army were Major General E.P. Yates, director of installations, and Colonel Peter Pietro, who expressed the intention of the Army Chief of Staff to retain Ft. Sheridan and to utilize fully the permanent facilities as well as most of the post's temporary facilities. General Yates commented on a staff study awaiting final Army approval. He indicated that the study recommended a total military and civilian population of approximately 3,000 and an overall population of 4,500 including military dependents, a reduction of * approximately 600 below the total population at Ft. Sheridan prior to the transfer earlier this year of the Fifth Army headquarters to Ft. Sam Houston, Texas. According to General Yates, various important missions ape now performed at Fort Sheridan, these include: (a) command of the Reserve,\ ROTC, and other off-post ac tivities in a seven-state area; (b) the operation of a sophisticated communications center; (c) servicing requirements of veterans and retired military personnel in the general area; (d) main- tenarice operations covering electronic, weapons and other military equipment in a wide area of the mid-west and numerous other missions related to the various military units in the mid-west area. It was indicated also that reserves may use Ft. Sheridan for fulfilling various of their active service requirements and that schools may be established which, would provide a less intensive but nevertheless full use of the permanent facilities. The only non-military use of Ft. Sheridan property on which there appeared to be general agreement was that of providing public access to portions of the beach which might serve the recreational PAGE 5-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1971' Holiday Hills Bonnie Kellen 385-6344 Home Owners Plan Picnic For Association Plans are developing for the Holiday Hills Property Owners Association picnic which is going to be held on Sunday,- August 1, at the river beach.
