Instructor for this class will be Mrs. Esther Wanieck who was responsible for re-opening the Opera House in the summer of 1959 after its doors had been closed for several years. The theater at that time was filled with dust and cobwebs hung from every corner and chan­ delier. Young people were literally brought in off the Square to clean the place up and in the following summer Mrs. Wanieck directed these same young people in suc­ cessful productions of "Lute Song" and "The Rainmaker". Throughout the ensuing thirteen years, following the inception of the WFAA in 1961, she has directed many plays and acted as the association's executive director. Most recently she directed the highly successful "Nutcracker" along with choreographer, Mrs. Lynn BARBARA KLEIN SCHOOL DANCING Ballet and Tap Pre-Schools to Adults " Far Information Coll 728-0161 4503 Ringwood Road Norris. That production played to five standing room only audiences. This winter series is planned to end April 6 and will culminate in a production. The one chosen is "Sing Ho for a Prince", the musical version of "Sleeping Beauty". The musical accompaniment will also be done by young people playing their own in­ struments. This suggested productibn is only tentative and final decisions will be made depending . upon numbers registered, their ability and interests. During the week just prior to production an ad­ ditional rehearsal time may be scheduled. Registration for this class will be held in the Opera House Saturday, Jan. 26, from 10 to 2 and before the first class period on Feb. 2.

The featured band for the afternoon was the Tully band starring George Polivka of Silver Lake and his partner, Morrie Bown of Antioch. They were joined at times by other musicians including area residents. Si and Millie Simonsen of McHenry. The residents of Mt. St. Joseph enjoyed their music im­ mensely, for they sang and danced with the various groups of musicians. A special feature on the program was the music of Millie Simonsen at the piano and her husband, Simon, who is a rock and roll artist. She sang a great number of old time favorites and played for the sing-a-long. Her specialty was the glockenspiel. Her husband was the top guitarist.

(J(!a±±xoom& "Bachelor Survival," "The Good Life," and "Human Relations" are some of the home economics courses now being offered to high school and college men as well as women across the country. Courses in foods and nutritipn seem to be the most popular areas of study for men, followed closely by family living and bachelor living courses, says Clareta Walker, University of Illinois Extension family living specialist. This< growing interest in home economics on the part of men seems to have resulted from their need to share family responsibilities or to live as a bachelor if they don't marry. But whether or not they marry, there will continue to be a need among men for more in­ formation on better buymanship and management of finances. Many young men are finding that what they want in the ready-to-wear market is not available at a price they can afford, and are turning to a needle and thread as an alternative. Courses offered in clothing and textiles teach the correct use of equipment and basic sewing tools as well as con- of artificial flowers prepared by Mrs. Tulumello and some of her Antioch high school students. They were given to each resident as symbolic of the coming of spring after a long, cold winter. struction of accessories and clothing articles, says Miss Walker. In the past, good grooming has been a much neglected subject in most educational curriculums. However, the motivational force behind learning good habits- pride in appearance - is strongly present among men as well as women. The hodge-podge of in­ formation concerning personal hygiene directed toward young people by the mass media has created a desire among many students to have a clear end honest presentation of the subject. And the best place to get this information is in the classroom. Finding and furnishing a home is one consumer en­ deavor that even the most practical-minded male often doesn't think about until faced with the problem. Courses in home furnishings can inform students about various aspects of housing such as financing a house (rent, mortgages, building costs), utilities (electric wiring, access to and draining of water, sewage disposal), and what to look for in construction as well as units in furnishings and decorating. Courses in household equipment are aimed at familiarizing young men and women with the purchase, use and care of commonly used utensils, cookware, and cleaning equipment, adds Miss Walker. i Many young men become aware erf career possibilities by enrolling in home economics courses. Various resource people from the community such as utility company representatives, architects, electricians, contractors, a p p l i a n c e r e p a i r m e n , salesmen, and the like, may be brought in to discuss their jobs and their relation to home economics.
