9 .'AGE 8 - PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY. OCTOBER 24. 1975 f)onna Lucie <Sue Sullivan). Tharfey's Aunt" ram a Offering At Marian High Marian Central Catholic high school will present Branden Thomas' "Charley's Aunt" at Marian on the weekend of Nov. 7 and 8. This whimsical comedy has been popular with audiences all over the world because of its "rib-tickling" humor. "Charley's Aunt" is a three- act play that finds Jack Chesney (Jim Harrison) violently in love with Kitty Verdun (Peggy Carev) and Charley < Herb Dettmer) equally enamored with Miss Spettigue (Joan Sandall), Charley's wealthy aunt from Brazil, intends to visit the relatives for a few days but all kinds of problems develop when her visit is delayed for a few days. This play never fails to reach an audience when it is revealed that Charley's aunt is an im- poster. Lord Fancourt Bab- berly (Joe McCormack). Comic confusion results when Lord Babberly tricks Stephen Spettigue into agreeing to the marriage of his ward to Charley, the real aunt marries Jack's father, Jack wins Miss Verdun's love, and "Charley's Aunt" regains the fortune he lost at gambling and obtains the hand of the girl he loves. Other students winning leads in this Drama club production are Matt Zachari (Sir Francis Chesney) Dave Cooney • Itrassett), Bill Powers •Stcpehn Spettigue) and Joanne Sieck (Ela Delahay). Assisting Drama Director Barbara Honquest with "Charley's Aunt" are Patricia Mihan (assistant director), Luane Janikowski (stage manager), Rosemary Rogers (scenery), Angie Garcia (props), Tony McCormack (lights), Kathy Beck (costumes) and Celia Baiel (make-up). The curtain will rise at 8p.m. both evenings of the per­ formance. Tickets will be available at the door only for "Charley's Aunt". V.F.W. McHENRY, ILLINOIS VR PUBLIC WELCOME r"H"ALLAVAILABLE"] !

What a kind and thoughtful gesture this is if done sincerely and honestly. Recently, a dog owner was commenting on the good health and longevity of her relatively aged pet. She remarked that she and her husband include the pet in their daily prayers. Including your own pet or some other animals you know about in your prayers is an active act of kindness that may help fill a particular need for a certain animal. Television shows have been built around the theme of the love of a child or person for an animal and how the animal was spared death or a cruel fate because of the earnest prayers of some little boy or girl, which took form in the way of human assistance. Animals look to man for their help. And man can help them especially when he applies some of the same rules applied to human behavior - the Golden Rule, for example. Just because a living creature has four legs and a fuzzy coat of hair and is part of the animal world is no reason to think it doesn't need some of the same thoughtfulness we accord our human friends. And just think, St. Francis may put in a good word for you some day because of your kindness to our four-legged friends. Helping Paws has some nice four-legged friends for adop­ tion. The Helping Paws office is open Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 10 a.m. to noon, and from l to 3 p.m. The telephone number is 459-2641.

Student Director Calls School Play Bicentennial Treat As student director, I get to both observe and participate in the busy behind the scenes preparations going on for this year's fall play. Rehearsals for "Our Hearts were Young and Gay", which will be performed on Nov. 14, 15, and 16 at 8, have been taking place for the past three weeks. The stagecraft class is painting and hammering furiously while the light crew is developing the timing needed to put on a truly great show. Our cast, which includes some excellent talent, seems to enjoy bringing the 1920's style characters to life. It is obvious that they are really applying themselves and are quickly nailing down blocking and lines. As Jodie Heldt, who is co- starring as Cornelia says, 'I'm really surprised at how well it's going. It's going to be a gas!' Mrs. Vandagriff, our beloved director, is especially pleased with the selection of the play for our Bicentennial year. It is, in her words 'a bit of Americanna. It offers a unique glimpse into the sparkling, nostalgic 1920's.' This play, which tells the real story of two American co-eds who travel to France for the summer is one of the most joyful I've ever had the privilege to participate in. I sincerely hope that everyone in McHenry will get the op­ portunity to share it with us. After you've seen it, I think you'll agree with Sue Meyers who plays one of our English girls, when she says, 'It's frightfully ripping!'.

There are times when I'm happy and times when I'm mad. There are times to remember and times to forget. But why must I go on living when times are so bad. I thought my luck was changing the day I met you. I thought my life meant something. I thought I had it all, till yesterday when you left us all, for time has come and gone And life seems so wrong. by Mike Pearson MILESTONE I passed a milestone the other day, And paused in memory of those who came my way. I remembered my childhood, so few now remain, When I sat on a curbstone wishing for a car in vain. I dreamt of a roadster, lone and sheik, With hundreds of horses 'neath the hood so sleek. Then I thought of my high school days, The guys and dolls full of fun and play. We scattered to the winds, just a special few I see now and then at a burial adieu. I remembered some with a smile and a tear With poignant regret for those so dear, Then I reviewed the cast of today And hope they'll remember me that way. George Pittner Last year UNICEF shipped more than 39 million pounds of high-protein CSM (corn-soya- milk mixture) and WSB (a wheat and soy blend) to feed starving children in eight drought-stricken African countries and for distribution through health centers in eight other developing countries where severe malnutrition threatens the lives of infants and pre-schoolers. f̂' Las Vegas*'*̂ 5 DAYS • 4 NITES **\& f r e m * 1 6 9 # # | :l On October 25, 1775, Dr. Isaac Senter, Sur­ geon of the American forces enroute to Can­ ada, described the hardships of the jour­ ney.
