RTE. 120 McHENRY USD A Food Participation Reported For One Month The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has reported its preliminary estimates on the operation of food assistance programs in the month of June. A total of 14.8 million people is estimated to have benefited from the family food programs in June, slightly less than the 14.9 million in May, 1973, but an increase over the 14.6 million participating in June, 1972. This total includes participation in the food stamp program and the food distribution program. Participation in the food stamp program in June totaled 12.4 million people, the same as the May, 1973, figure, but was 800,000 larger than the 11.6 million. The number of people taking part in the food distribution program decreased slightly to an estimated 2.4 million from the 2.5 million reported for May, 1973. Participation was down 600,000 from June, 1972, as areas continued to switch from food distribution to food stamps. As schools closed for the summer months, participation in the national school lunch program went to 11.4 million children this June, up 200,000 from a year ago. Of these 11.4 million, a total of 4.4 million children received their meals free or at reduced prices. This was up about a quarter of a million from June 1972. These figures reported today are preliminary and subject to later revision. The food programs are ad­ ministered by USDA's Food and Nutrition Service in cooperation with state and local governments. e.Presidents' Club Plans Fall Tour Richmond members of the McHenry County Presidents' club were hostesses for a club meet held recently at the home of Mrs. Elmer Justen.

During a special three-day series of programs, designed to provide for the social, emotional and psychological needs of the student, as well as allow campus living experiences, Rhonda had an opportunity to attend classes and participate in seminars providing educational training skills in such areas as reading, listening, note-taking and testing. She also had the op­ portunity to take the college level examination program (CLEP) series of tests and meet with campus organizations and individual leaders. New Branch Offices Serve Children, Family The Waukegan district office of the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services has opened new branch offices to better serve McHenry and Lake counties, according to Arthur Granzeier, ad­ ministrator of the Waukegan office. Said Granzeier, "The new offices at Mundelein and Woodstock will ensure greater accessibility of child welfare services to the two counties. We want to be known by all residents of the area as an agency responsive to their needs." The Mundelein office, located at 309 N. Lake avenue, will serve the western half of Lake county west of Interstate 94. The office at 224 W. Judd street in Woodstock, the cen­ trally located county seat, will be able to efficiently serve the entire McHenry county area. The Waukegan office, too, has moved to a new location, 215 Water street, and will now concentrate on serving the metropolitan area of Lake^ county along Lake Michigan, east of Interstate 94. Each branch office is staffed by social workers and a secretary and provides family counseling, work with unwed parents, protective services, follow-up on suspected child abuse, and services to foster children whose families five within the area. In addition to casework, the Waukegan office' retains responsibility in the two counties for licensing of foster homes, adoptive homes and day care facilities, utilization of homemakers and volunteer staff, resource development, and business functions. Granzeier will continue in the Waukegan location but now administers all three offices. He said, "We are confident this further decentralization of direct services will allow closer, more personalized service to clients and be in the best interests of everyone concerned." POSTER WINNER-First place winner of the recent Vacation Bible school poster contest sponsored by the Cain O'Lakes Evangelical Covenant church was Judi Olson. The talented miss is a sixth grade student in the church's five-day Bible school, which is now in session. Second place winner was David Stoner, a seventh grader. Deaths DESRAE L.
