PAGE 24 • PLA1NDEALER - WEDNESDAY, MAY 30,1979 Sunnyside Area Betty Messer 344-2494 Pack 454 Holds Final Meeting Cub Scout Pack 454 of Johnsburg-Sunnyside area held its final pack meeting for the year at Bush school on Wed­ nesday, May 23. The program was originally scheduled to be held outdoors, but the cool weather forced the meeting indoors. Final awards for the year for achievements completed were awarded to a number of scouts. Badges and awards went to the following boys: Walter Kozlowski, Wolf badge; Michael Milbrantz, Bear badge. Activity badges were awarded to Webelos scouts Scott Lehman, Sean Bean and Steve Streka. Entering into Webelos, the final phase of Cub Scouts before the boys become Boy Scouts, were Tim Alyward, John Brennan, Dan Berns, Chris Ahern, Mike Fortin, David Hopp, Steve Tennyson, Mike Hopp, Randy Sundell and Bob Messer. Receiving Webelos badges were Steve Streka and Sean Bean. Scott Lehman received the highest award given in Cub Scouts, the Arrow oTLight. This is the only award given in Cub Scouts that can be carried with the boys into Boy Scouts. Scoutmaster Jim Christie of Boy Scout Troop 455 accepted * into the troop Scott Lehman and Don Tennyson. Scouting has produced many prominent citizens, among them former president Gerald Ford. Scouting teaches leadership, honesty, loyalty, friendship, love of God and country. Response to the car wash and bake sale held by Pack 454 on Sunday May 20 was great. The boys made $120 and are going to Milwaukee Sunday, June 10, to see the Milwaukee Braves play the Chicago White Sox. The boys and their families were fortunate to have the Crystal Lake Indian Dangers of Boy Scout Troop 210, St. Mary's Episcopal church, perform for them. Along with their dances the boys tell some of the Indian folklore that relates to the dances they do. The boys who perform these dances have won awards in Galena and at the Illinois state fair. The boys do authentic Indian dances in an effort to preserve some of our American heritage of Indian folklore. Their program was enjoyed by the parents and the boys. They also wear authentic Indian costumes. WISCONSIN WEEKEND Bill and Mable Zawislak, 1413 Bay view lane, took a long weekend to do some fishing in the Eagle River, Wise., area. The weather was rather cool, and fishing not too great; but the scenery is beautiful. GRANDSON'S BIRfHDAY Betty and Rich Messer and son Bob, 1405 Bayview lane, were also weekend visitors in Wisconsin'. They were in Conover to help celebrate grandson Chad Rosinski celebrate his first birthday. Chad's parents, Julie and Ralph Rosinski, own R J's Sportsman cafe. While in Conover the Messers meet neighbors, Bill and Mable Zawislak, who were staying in nearby Eagle River.

Congratulations and many more happy years together. HELP! Once again, park director Lillian Pomonis has asked me to make a plea for help with the park. There's a slide * and merry-go-round that have to be installed, but as I said before, Lillian can't do this work alone. So how about some of the men in the area calling Lillian and offering to help get this playground equipment in­ stalled so the children can use it during the summer. School will be out in a couple of weeks and the children will be playing in the park. Playground equip­ ment is expensive and does no one any good laying around waiting to be installed. Call Lillian and offer your services. LOST WATCH A neighbor called to say she had found a ladies' wrist watch along the road. Mrs. Joanne Kennebeck found the watch along Channel Beach drive. She will retipi it to the owner upon identification of the watch. If you have lost a watch in the Sunnyside area call 385-5820. FOOTBALL TEAM The McHenry Hornets football team is starting registration for the 1979 football season. The boys play at the McHenry high school athletic field. This is a junior team and for the younger boys. But you must weigh at least 65 lbs. Practice starts in August. If you are interested in joining the Hornets team, call for more information about registration at 385-5692. VILLAGE MEETING Tuesday, May 15, was the regular second meeting of the month for the village of Sun­ nyside. Trustee Ivar Wendell brought up the fact that a number of residents still have not purchased vehicle stickers. The Sunnyside police will be issuing tickets, as everyone has had ample time to get stickers. If you are new in the village and have not purchased your stickei*, call the clerk's office, 385^6023, for information. Plans are being made ta do much needed repair work on roads. This past winter left some roads in need of patching. This work should start in the very near future. Don't forget the weekend of June 1 and 2 is clean-up weekend. Bins will be placed in areas around the village, and you can dispose of rubbish in these bins. Help keep Sun­ nyside beautiful. HOME FROM GERMANY Pvt.

VILLAGE MEETING Ju«t a remir«H»»r that June 5 is the next meeting of the village of Sunnyside. Meetings are held at the Johnsburg junior high at 8 p.m. in rooms 30 and 31. Twice Told Tales - FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of May 30, 1929) The local members of the Epworth League entertained about 100 members from neigh­ boring cities at a program and rally held at the M.E. church. The evening was a most in­ structive and entertaining one with a fine group of young people gathered for the evening of fun and fellowship. Dr. Nelson Horn of Chicago delivered the address of the evening and judging from the applause at the conclusion of his talk he was very much enjoyed. His talk was in­ terspersed with humor and poetry and denoted a wide range of learning and thought. From "Bacon's Strip": "They say they never come back but Jimmie Fay returned to Elgin last week and ran up against the same Freddie Alton, who took a four-round decision from our local mid­ dleweight a few weeks ago, and this time Jimmie gave him a regular old-time trimming in the regulation three rounds. Both fighters started strong, but in that game it's the finish that counts and at the end of the third, the one that was still going strong wasn't Alton as Fay just about finished him with a strong right to the chin in the last few rounds." FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 8, 1939) McHenry purchased a police car at the regular meeting of the City Council. Albert S. Blake was the lucky bidder and will deliver a brand new Plymouth Tudor to the city within the terms stipulated in the bidder's proposal. The car purchase was made in a manner that met with the approval of all bidders. Before bids were opened, it was decided that all acceptable to the council would be given that well known sporting chance of having their name pulled out of a hat. Three bidders were present to watch the drawing. Blake had the luck. The new cement tennis courts erected on the site of the old courts are completed and play on them has begun. The backstops are being put up now and will be finished within a day or two. As its gift to the school the senior class is giving $100 to build a rock garden and fountain on the newly acquired land south of the courts. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of June 3, 1954) ^ It was generally agreed by the large crowd which watched the Memorial day parade that this was the large^ and most colorful of any ever held here. In comparing it with others held in this area, the line of march was also hailed as the most impressive. New in the local parade this year was the musical organization known as the Sons of Veterans, a drum and bugle corps made up of youngsters who have been well instructed in the use of drums and bugles. Norbert Mauch, chairman of the Marine Day parade, an­ nounces that the committee is desirous of obtaining entries as early as possible. An early issue of the Plaindealer will list the classifications under which floats may be entered. Members of the committee include two past chairmen of the event, C.H. Duker and Charles Vycital. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of May 27, 1969) A teaching career which tops thirty-three years comes to an end early next month for Mrs. Arline Harrison Pearson, who is retiring as a kindergarten teacher at Edgebrook school. A lovely tree was planted in her honor near Edgebrook school. St. Patrick's Catholic church will have a new pastor soon in the person of Rev. Edmund P. Petit. Father Petit will assume the pastorship left vacant by the death in March of Fr. Leonard Guzzardo. A state-wide search using airplanes and helicopters from State Police District II and Cook county were being used to find a motorist who shot a trooper in the face. Injured seriously, but in satisfactory condition in McHenry hospital was Sven G. Ljunggren of Woodstock, a member of the state police force since 1960. Guide To Travel Where can you find a walrus named Olga who eats up $6,000 worth of fish each year? Or the final resting place of the world's heaviest human? Or ghosts, like the headless hor­ seman who rides through the Pine Hills in southern Illinois? Just where in Illinois can you buy a copy of a newspaper named "The Planet?" In Metropolis, of course, where there is also a local sampling of Superman paraphernalia. There's Illinois champagne, too. And a few back country chuckles at events like the annual state championship or Cow-Chip Tossing contest. Ever ride a steamboat? Or visit the town Daniel Boone's brother founded? For trips on where to go this summer, the Illinois Office of Tourism is now offering a new brochure, "20 Interesting, Educational and Sometimes Even Amazing Trips to Take in Illinois." The travel guide details about 2,000 miles worth of auto tours that can save time and gas during the coming summer season. Featuring four-color illustrated maps and drawings depicting Illinois attractions, the guide includes trips from 90 to 400-plus miles in length. And visit if you're curious about happenings in towns you plan to visit, there's also the free Illinois Calendar of Events. Used along with the "20 Tours" brochure, the Calendar allows for planned excursions to places like Nauvoo and its annual "Grape Festival," or the "Fort de Chartres Ren­ dezvous," in southern Illinois' French colonial district. There's information on Chicago, too. From lakefront museum attractions to sites in and around the famous "Loop." For a free copy of the Calendar of Events and 20 Interesting, Educational and Sometimes Even Amazing Trips to Take in Illinois, write: Illinois Adventure Center, 160 LaSalle street, Chocago, 111., 60601; or, Illinois Office of Tourism, 222 S. College street, Springfield, 111., 62706; or the Illinois Office of Tourism, 2209 W. Main street, Marion, 111., 62959. Asking the question is much easier than finding the right answer.
