Whispering Oaks (Whispers from the "Oaks") > Marilynn Hamilton 385-6962 Special Agent Gives Report Of FBI Activities The ladies who missed the public service meeting held Wednesday afternoon at the community center missed an informative, interesting insight into the FBI. Special Agent Richard Stilling brought an actual series of photos of a bank robbery taken by one of the mounted cameras now in use in many banks. He told a "chilling" story of a plane hi-jacking; the hijacker parachuted out over Indiana and had his clothes blown off by the Jet stream! At the business meeting, E l e a n o r H e n d r i c k s , n o m i n a t i o n s c h a i r m a n , presented the slate of new officers: Irene Tice, president, Emma Foy, first vice- president, Beatrice Horst, second vice-president, Eva Brown, treasurer, Lillian Gebhardt, publicity secretary and Evelyn Enger, corresponding secretary. President Irene Tice reported the new program chairman would be Hjordis Karlsen and the yearbook chairman, Agnes Weiss. DRUG ABUSE SEMINAR Exciting news is that the Women's Club will sponsor two high school students, Mary Morowski and Kim Hegner, to attend an In Depth Seminar on teenage Drug Abuse. The 5 day seminar, aptly designated "Double Alert" will be held at East Bay Camp, Hudson, 111., under the auspices of the Public Affairs department of the General Federation of Women's clubs and the Department of Mental Health of the State of Illinois.

The young ladies will firm up their information into a report to be given to an early fall assembly at school and to the Women's club. Plans for the June luncheon at Shady Lane were announced by chairman Emma Foy who said the play will be "Who Goes Bare?" and that ticket^f^rthe outing will include lunch, tip6, tax and play ticket. Get your reservations in early! THE CHARLES ERCKMANS Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Erckman of Cumberland Circle have returned from a 15 day Caribbean cruise aboard the T.S.S. Fairwind. They visited the islands of Haiti, Puerto Rico, St. Thomas, Martinique, Curacao, Aruba and Jamaica and the cities of Caracas, Venezuela and Cartagena, Colombia in South America. They reported having a won­ derful time. Weather was perfect, sea calm, food and entertainment aboard were fabulous, three orchestras, Myron Cohen and seven en­ tertainers, and top rated movies all helped to keep everyone from being bored between ports of call. The Erckmans were astonished by the extreme poverty and living conditions in Haiti, Jamaica and Catagena. The most unusual sight was the thousands of poverty shacks clustering around and within the beautiful city of Caracas, with no utilities or facilities, all on top of one another clinging to the mountainsides. Upon docking at Port Everglades, they were welcomed home by Mrs. Er- ckman's niece and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Dickens, Jr., and their five youngsters from West Palm Beach, Fla., along with her sister-in-law, Mrs. Gertrude Weber of Wilmette. FLORIDA VISITORS Lowell and Marjorie McGraw of Wiltshire Drive recently returned home from a 2 week trip through Florida visiting friends along the way. In Tallahasse they visited a cousin who teaches at the University there, they con­ tinued on through Winter Haven, Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale, crossed the state on the famous "Alligator Trail" and completely succumbed to the charm of Naples; were amazed at the great homes on Marco Island and joined other tourists doing their thing (Shell collecting) on Sanibel Island. In Venice they visited Sun City where they stayed with friends and were shown the fabulous community center there...."but we wouldn't trade Whispering Oaks for all of that." Nice to have such loyal residents. GREAT PATIENT Mrs. Nina Hoym is doing very well after her eye surgery at Northwest Community Hospital in Arlington Heights.
