Officers noted the car travelled 216 feet from where it left the road and came to rest on its roof in a field FRED MEYER '75 PARADE MARSHAL (Continued from page 1) through many contributions to his home city. One of these was his organization of Yhis-Is- Your-Life programs held in conjunction with the state Forester basketball tour­ naments, which he helped to manage for twenty-five years. Meyer also organized and was president of the city's first Little League. / In 1956 he was awarded the Citizen of the Year award by the Veterans of Foreign Wars in conjunction with the annual VJ day ce^bration. The honoree was born in McHenry, and graduated from St. Mary's grade school and McHenry high school. Later, he served with the Army in Africa, Sicily and Italy, receiving the Good Conduct, Purple Heart and Soldier's Medals and four Battle Stars. Fred Meyer is married to the former Catherine "Tinky" Rothermel. They have four sons, Jon, ^David, Randy and Joe. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' ^Continued from page 1) Eleven of them there were, and still hale and hearty, they gather from many states each summer for a reunion. It was time for found memories on three occasions this past week when members arrived from Florida, Massachusetts, Idaho, Colorado and Illinois to reminisce. There may have been juvenile delinquency back in the days when the John An­ derson kids were growing up, but they never seemed to have heard of it. This was a sports- loving family with a sense of humor and the know-how to get all the fun they needed out of the wholesome pleasures of life. >- If he were alive today, wouldn't John Anderson take great pride in their ac­ complishments! Besides the fact that July Fourth is one of the country's most $> important days historically, there was other good news, this year; There was reason to celebrate for buyers of thousands of products through the new law governing warranties and guarantees which went* into effect on the holiday. The Federal Trade com­ mission recently issued guidelines so that manufac­ turers know what is expected of them. And, briefly, it is this: If any product manufactured after July 4 fails to perform or operate properly, the maker must either repair the product in a "reasonable" time or replace it. Also, under an act passed in. 1974, manufacturers must stop the practice of wording warranties so that loopholes and exceptions enable them to escape liability. In other words, fine print and wording limiting liability are, for the most part, barred. And if there are ex­ ceptions, they must be printed conspicuously on the face of the warranty. In the future, the American customer should be better protected. Check your warranty or guarantee and depend on it, if the purchase was manufac­ tured after July 4, 1975. No more the sly, slurring "party of1 the first part" reminiscent of the old Amos and Andy comedy days. A welcome note from E.J. "Biff" Meyer, Chicago, tells us of "things I would like to see or hear again". Here they are: "Ben Thonnesson in the pit at the Empire theatre; "Mike Conway, Bill Quinn and Henry Claxton in a real violin concert; "Ed Kelter driving his Model T Ford into town to pick up the morning mail; Marine Festival week is one for memories as it brings back" old timers to renew acquain­ tanceships. Maybe it's what inspired the recollections of this former McHenry resident. For him -and for all others who cherish memories of another, more quiet time in this community-the Plaindealer's centennial issue should provide many pleasant moments.

Co-sponsored by McHenry County college, McHenry County Area Career center and the McHenry County Manpower Planning division through a Com­ prehensive Employment Training act gran^ (CETA), the study was to determine the oc­ cupational and training needs of employers throughout the county. Questionnaires covering employment needs, local labor s u p p l i e s , e d u c a t i o n a l requirements afnd in-house trainfng areas for ]!>ositions currently being utilized by (employers were mailed to over 800 employers in McHenry county and the surrounding area. Concurrent with the em­ ployer questionnaire was a form sent, on a random basis,' to over 2,500 residents of the county. The objective tof this survey was to gather accurate information concerning the| status and needs of the currentj labor force throughout thei county and the daily com-j munity patterns of McHenry cpunty workers. TK^ information will be used by the three agencies in developing training programs, designing college curricula, and planning vocational programs at the high school level. It is the intention of the agencies that these programs be used to train local citizens for the types of jobs that em­ ployees of McHenry county offer. It has been determined that, too often, vocational and special training programs are geared to skills for which local employers have no im-' mediate needs. The gathered information from the returned questionnaires will place McHenry county in a unique position of being able to determine the needs of both employers and the citizen workers of the county. Engineering Award To Former McHenry Man> Master of Science / (1965) degrees from the University of Illinois. For the following two years, he held a post-doctoral fellowship at Brown university before * being appointed assistant professor of engineering in 1973. - He is on sabbatical leave at Stanford university during the 1974-75 academic year, where he is visiting professor in the departments __ of applied mechanics and materials science. Dr. Freund has publishec over twenty-five technical articles and has served as a technical consultant in applied mechanics. He is a member of Sigma XI and the American Geophysical union. Dr. Freund is married to the former DeeAnn Hester. Associate Professor Lambert Ben Freund, son of Mrs. Eugene A. Luther of 2114 W.\ Church street, McHenry, has received the Henry Hess award from the American Society of M e c h a n i c a l E n g i n e e r s (ASME). Dr. Freund is an associate professor of engineering at Brown university, Providence, R.I. The honor was given to Dr. Freund for his paper, "The Response of an Elastic Solid to Nonuniformly Moving Surface Loads." Dr. Freund has been concerned with teaching and research in the mechanics of solids and structures where his research has focused on wave propagation and on fracture mechanics. Dr. Freund was born in McHenry and received his Bachelor of Science (1964) and d fatter fcr&Hs kofxje, The three F's "I love them. That's the bottom of it. I love each of them, and they're smart enough to sense it. Each morning, one of my girls gives me a hug. And as I pass her desk during the day, she often gives me another little squeeze." That's the way Mrs. Jo Davis describes her class in special education at the grade school in Tallula, a small town in Central Illinois. Although a modest person who denies any "miracle" methods, Mrs. Davis succeeds in teaching her mentally retarded pupils such basics as fourth grade reading and how to open a bank account. "In reading, we major on what I call 'safety' words and 'menu' words," she told me. "If they can read what they see on a restaurant menu, or in grocery stores, this stimulates their interest in other words. Too, we learn such 'safety' words as Slow, danger, stop, keep out, etc." Mrs. Davis, who as a farmer's wife also gardens and raises flowers, says patience is a big factor ."I can sit as long as necessary while a youngster struggles to, tie his shoe. Not all adults can do this. Nor all parents. Too often, adults do for the handicapped what they should do for themselves, even if it means a struggle." When Mrs. Davis began teaching in one-room country schools, her county superintendent gave some advice she's never forgotten. "I expect you to teach the three R's," the superintendent said. "But I also expect you to follow the three F's. Be fair, be firm, and be friendly. If you do so, you have it made in the classroom." I guess love is the ribbon that ties the package together, for if we really love someone, we're bound to be friendly, to treat him fairly, and still be firm, which is another word for patience. •j)j R.J. Hastings is editor of The I l l ino i s Bap t i s t in Springfield July, 1975 The linden, in the fervors of July, Hums with a louder concert. -Bryant. July always ushers in the second half of the calendar year. It's the first month of the fiscal year and has more than ordinary importance in the business world. July4s named for Julius Caesar, a change from its former name of Quintilis, changed on the order of Mark Antony, and was the month in which Caesar was born. For Americans July is an especially historic month. Our independence is celebrated on the Fourth, of course, and the Battle of Gettysburg was fought during the first three days of July in 1863. Two of our Presidents were born in July, John Quincy Adams and Calvin Coolidge. The first admiral in the U.S. Navy, David G. Farragut, was born on July 5» 1801. The Republican Party was founded July 6, 1854, at Jackson, Michigan. One largely forgotten, though relatively recent day, is July 10th. On that day in 1943 the Allies invaded Europe for the first time in World War II. General Dwight Eisen­ hower led an amphibious invasion of Sicily. July, the first month of fUll-bloom summer, is the month of vacations, holidays, swimming, boating and outdoor pleasures.
