It was the annual Christmas party, and '.'Uncle Ken" amused and enternined the youngsters with his antics, until Santa arrived. Santa, who drove up in a dune buggy, was greeted by the children singing "Here comes Santa Claus." They all got to meet him, and each received a stocking filled with candy, before Santa left, escorted by No. 147 to return to the North Pole. Sponsors of the party, the Beach Gals, had expected a much larger gr^ui and wondered why rr.c»» <reu from the village didn't attend. TEEN DANCE Teens were treated to a night of music and dance, Dec. 14, when a local teen band, "Stonehenge" offered to play, at the village hall. Band members are Hal Hartwig, Jim Letzia, Bob Boyle and Lee Steinsdorfer, and their manager is George Keeney. The boys entertained the young people present with a wide variety of modern music, complete with singing, and special lighting effects. Though some danced, most of the teens seemed to prefer to sit and listen to the music. There was a large turnout, and the audience was asking for more When the band quit at 11 p.m. < JLU T VOI LLYBALL Some adults showed up for volleyball last week, but there are still not enough to form complete teams.

Phone 385-3200 Youth Keeps Green Thumb During Winter Young people can get a great i.ej of pleasure and satisfaction from growing ornamental plants indoors, says Dave Plocher, McHenry county Extension adviser. The gardening indoors 4-H project helps young people learn about flowers and foliage plants by growing them in their own home. Although house plants can be enjoyed the year round, they are especially appreciated during the winter months, notes Mr. Plocher. 4-H members enrolled in the indoor gardening project are expected to grow eight dif­ ferent kinds of house plants, grow flowers from bulbs, learn to identify a number of dif­ ferent house plants, and keep records on the work done and the development of their indoor plants. In the project, young people learn how to choose house plants, how to pot and care for them, how to force bulbs, and how to start plants from cut­ tings as well as seed, says Plocher. Young people interested in gardening should investigate the possibility of enrolling in 4- H and taking the indoor gar­ dening project, says Plocher. To do this, call the McHenry county Extension office or come into the office on the second floor of the old cour­ thouse on the Square in Woodstock. PUBLIC PULSE (The Plaindealer invites the public to use this column as an expression of their views on subjects of general interest in our community. Our only request is that the writers give - signature, full ad­ dress and phone number. We ask too. that one in­ dividual not write on the same subject more than once each month. We reserve the right to delete any material which we consider libelous or in objectional taste.) SCHOOL PROPOSAL "'Editor: "This is prompted by a letter which appeared in the Dec. 11 edition of the Plaindealer regarding the proposed high school in Johnsburg. "As the writer noted, the petition being circulated supports a feasibility study for the proposal. This is not so­ mething taxpayers should fear, but rather welcome, as a means of ascertaining if their tax dollar would assist children more by renovating present facilities in McHenry or by building a school closer to us all in Johnsburg. "Once the information is gathered for the feasibility study it will be made public so the voters can compare the options and decide intelligently what is best for our children. There are many other steps necessary, of course, including approval by the county and state superintendents of schools. "The letter of Dec. 11 seemed more an attack on the school board rather than the writer's purported purpose of discouraging the building of a high school. If it becomes desirable, school board members can be replaced, but List At College Dawn E Ewald, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Ewald, 3200 Vista Terrace, McHenry, has been named to the President's list at North Central college in Naperville in recognition of her scholastic achievement during fall term of the 1974-75 academic year. A 1974 graduate of McHenry high school. Miss Ewald is one of 111 students named to the list by Dr. Arlo L. Schilling, president of the college. To be eligible for the President's List, a student must be enrolled for at least 2.5 course units during the term and earn a grade point average of at least 3.700 for that term or a cumulative average of 3.500. Grade points are awarded for completed course work on the basis of four for an "A" three for a "B", two for a "C", and one for a "D". Legal Notice IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE 19TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, McHENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS PROBATE DIVISION . ESTATE OF Barbara L. Murray Deceased, FILE NO. 74-P-393 Notice is hereby given pursuant to Section 194 of the Probate Act, of the death of the above named decedent and that letters TESTAMENTARY were issued on December 9. 1974, to Harry C. Kinne, Jr., 3431 W. Elm St., McHenry, Illinois, whose attorney of record is Looze & Kinne, 3431 W. Elm St., McHenry, Illinois. Claims may be filed within 6 months from the date of issuance of Letters and that any claim not filed within that period is barred as to the estate which is inventoried within that period. Claims against said estate should be filed in the Probate office of the Clerk of said Court, County Court House, Wood­ stock, Illinois, and copies thereof mailed or delivered to said legal representative and to said attorney. MARGARET O'NEIL Clerk of the Court (Pub. Dec. 18,24 & 31,1974) can we afford to let disen­ chantment with any board cloud our thoughts about what is best, for the children? As a concerned parent I applaud the board in its efforts to provide the citizenry with complete information. "As it stands now there are only uninformed, rumors cir- culating regarding the proposal. It would seem premature at this point to discount the possibility of a high school in Johnsburg before seeing all the facts and figures. "Sincerely, "Saundra H. Clark" TALL GAL . . . Sandra Al­ len, 19, who at 7-5 claims to be the world's tallest woman, talks with co-worker Louise Reed in her office at the Indi­ ana State Board of Animal Health. Miss Alien weighs 421 pounds and is still growing. Sandra says "I'm hoping now to have some fun and make some money from being tall instead of having to spend extra money because of It." She says her parents and grandparents and other family members are all under 6-feet. Holiday care ; ; ! ; Si (Drive with care. Enjoy this holiday and all the holidays to come.) Dennis Conway 3319 W.
