Froehlich and his assistant, Tom Engels, both commented on the city's sound financial condition and made some suggestions on how the city could even improve on its present sound position. Enthusiasm runs high in anticipation of the annual McHenry County fair, which opens Wednesday, Aug. 3, and continues through Sunday, Aug 7. Two of the highlights occur the first two nights when fair royalty will be crowned. As the weekend approaches, the major excitement associated with Fiesta week events focuses on the parade.

Saturday, Aug. 6, will be a busy one in McHenry. The McHenry Chamber of Com­ merce is again making plans for the Sidewalk day sale that is so popular, and the Banjo-Beer night, a part of the week's celebration. ...To Riverside Drive in 1978 K1MBERLY KANTLEHNER Miss McHenry Tears, hugs and long-stemmed roses marked the crowning of Kimberly Ann Kantlehner, 18, as 1977 Miss McHenry at the American Legion home.
