An auto driven by Roberta J. Hoffman of 2812 N. Sacramento, Chicago, was stopped in traffic waiting for the car in front of her to make a left turn onto Chapel Hill road.

MUSIN1 N' MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) We were made aware of just how greatly the problem has increased when we attempted to listen to the city stagg from a car this past summer. Between loud mufflers, defective exhaust systems and motorcycles, it was impossible. But if rules to be announced Oct. l are put into effect, truck and bus noise could be cut by as much as half, in many cases. The E.P.A. is also planning to move against aircraft noise. Recent scientific studies have shown the high noise level of modern day life a definite hazard to the health of those who can't escape it. The only solution is to limit the noise level permitted; otherwise trucks, buses, aircraft and other vehicles are given preference over human beings. Junior High Schools Fly New Flags Parkland and McHenry Junior high schools are flying new American flags Americanism Chairman Gerry Kuck of the Ladies auxiliary to V.F.W. Post 4600 made the presentations at both schools. Also presented for the eighth grade students were pamphlets on flag etiquette. Eight grade students were present to accept the flags at both schools. McHenry Junior high school was represented by Karen Cook, Rodney Rouse, Tom Thompson, Dan De Roche! assistant principal; and Fred Kusch, principal. Parkland Junior high school was represented by Fran Brogan, Lori Dargatz, Phyllis Wright, Pat Epperson, Mark Mieritz, Paul Hanson, assistant prin­ cipal; and Don Toole, principal.

MARY MOBLEY, Colorado Spring^, CO: I remem­ ber an old car I rode in starting about 1912. My Uncle Martin had a Chalmers two-seated touring car. It was black trimmed with brass, and had an off-white cloth top which was partly held in place by long straps extending from the front and fastened to the fenders (this kept it from blowing off). The horn was so fancy, all the driver had to do was squeeze a big rubber ball to sound it. The seats were black leather, very hard and very slick. We went "riding" and also out for picnics. Actually, we went "shaking" for it rattled and shook from side to side. The tires were very hard and narrow, holding 40 pounds of air. If we had a flat tire, the car was jacked up (the jacks weren't like the ones we have today), then the tire was removed from the rim of the wheel, the inner tube was cold-patched, then it was all put back and my father had the task of hand pumping it full of 40 pounds of air.

"The nation's senior citizens are fulfilling meaningful and worthwhile roles in service and assistance to their neighbors through the American Red Cross," observes Mrs. Theodore O. Wedel. the organization's national chair­ man of volunteers. While Red Cross services bene­ fit everyone and are performed by people of all ages, Mrs Wedel said the organization has always been closely associated with and supported by the senior volun­ teers She said that from the time the American Red Cross was founded in 1881 by Clara Barton, then 60 years old, the organiza­ tion has offered volunteer oppor­ tunities and specialized services to persons beyond middle-age. She sited Project Find, a spe­ cial effort in which the Red Cross last winter helped the Social Se curity Administration make per­ sonal contact with 1,400,000 Social Security recipients who had asked for addiUonal information and help in determining whether they were eligible for government food stamps or food commodities. Through this effort, more than 225,000 elderly persons were helped to obtain a more adequate diet through the issuance of food stamps "One of the most important services the Red Cross offers sen­ ior citizens is the opportunity to volunteer and thus fulfill mean­ ingful roles as contributing citi­ zens in their community." Mrs Wedel added. She said senior citizens often share their varied knowledge and experience as members of Red Cross chapter governing boards and committees. Many retired businessmen work as Red Cross volunteers to help veterans re­ sume their civilian life and to find employment. Older volun teers are also the mainstay of chapter production programs, pre­ paring layettes for expectant mothers and making clothing items for disaster victims. "Name a Red Cross service or program," the national chairman added, "and you'll probably find find a senior citizen helping to operate it." From time to time we are assured of the innate goodness of our young people. Just such a story came our way this week from Grace Morris of Mc- Cullom Lake road. Teen-agers, both boys and girls, saw her husband hard at work putting a new roof on the garage. Within a short time the six young people had decided this was to be their end-of-summer project. Taking the tools-of-the- trade from the surprised Mr. Morris, they set about the task of completing the tedious job with no small amount of professionalism in their work. K.A.F. OPEN IMPROVED RTE. 120 HIGHWAY (Continued from page 1) company; McHenry Township Road Commissioner Clarence Regner and McHenry County Highway Commissioner Jim Rakow. The city extended ap- preciation to Dave Benrud, president of the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce, and to Walter Dean, chairman of the McHenry County Board of Supervisors, for their help in carrying out construction plans. They were unable to attend due to other com­ mitments. ~ District Engineer Zewjewski addressed those assembled and reported that Secretary Bond sent his regrets for not being able to be present. Zewjewski said the state ap­ preciated the cooperation and assistance received from the city on this job. He especially referred to the $23,000 which the city contributed to the project. The door of a lighthouse, 195 feet above the sea level, on the Shetland Islands, was broken open and severely damaged, during a winter storm, recently. Would be a poor place for a row-boat about that time.
