Girls may join Brownies when they are in first grade and Cub Scouts range in age from 8- 10 years old. The Cub Scouts of Pack 145 have remained active all summer long being one of the only troops in this area of the council to do so. The Cubs who participated in the summer sessions will be receiving a summer activity pin. The registration times will correspond with school registration times being 8-11:30 a.m. and 1-4 p.m. A bake sale to raise funds for the Cubs will also be held at the same time by the parents of the Scouts. ALL STAR TOURNAMENT Boys who were chosen from all the major league teams, played in an all star tour­ nament in Lake Zurich, Aug. 6, and then frgalft on Aug. 8.' Even though Wonder Lake Complete 14th Summer School didn't come out on the winning end, they played their hearts out and did an excellent job. The first game was ex­ tremely exciting with a 6-0 score going into the top half of the sixth and last inning. Wonder Lake scored one run in the top half of the sixth. In the bottom of the sixth, Wauconda had one man on and the next man up hit a homerun, winning the game, 2-1. It was un­ believable! The second game was not as close with Wonder Lake losing 10-2. It was an exciting tour­ nament though, watching some really good ball playing. ^ WOMAN'S CLUB The first board meeting of the new club year was held at the home of President Pat Fit­ zgerald on Aug.2. A report was heard on the Red Cross swimming lessons that had just been completed. Plans were made for the "Friendshij) Tea" which will be held Sept. 6, beginning at 7:30 p.m., in the Nativity Lutheran church fellowship hall. This is an open meeting for all women in the area who might like to see what the Woman's Club does throughout the year. Punch, tea sandwiches, and yummy desserts will be sup­ plied by the board members who act as the hostesses for the evening. The program will be "A Musical Montage" by Geri Gavsling.

Day Sept. 4 - Back to School Johnsburg Community Unit School District No. 12 has just completed its fourteenth consecutive Title I Summer School program. This year, for the fifth time, the program included kindergarten children as well as children from grades 1 through 5. Both math and reading were offered. Mrs. Trudy Palys, Mrs. Kathy Mullen and Mrs. Mabel Weber provided the basic format of the planning for the units taught. The theme of the program was American Folk Tales and Legends and was broken down into six units: Legends of real heroes and heroines, Tall tale characters, Comparison of real and fic­ tional characters and stories, Indian legends, American traditions and values and last, American geography and history. The units were introduced with filmstrips and stories read about the characters studied. Many of the characters studied were already familiar to the children while some were new to them. The characters the children enjoyed learning about were Johnny Appleseed, John Henry, Daniel Boone, Davy Crockett, Mike Fink, Joe Magarac, Windwagon Smith, Paul Bunyan, Pecos Bill and Casey Jones. Part of the last two weeks was spent with puppets, helping to make many American stories more meaningful. Stories such as Brer Rabbit, Cowboy Jack, Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Rip Van Winkle and the Wizard of Oz were read as the children took turns manipulating the puppets. , All of the children in the program are tested at the beginning and end of the program under specifications of Title I. The teachers report that in most instances con­ siderable gain was shown. The teachers and most of the parents feel the children are reading' better, doing better math and are enjoying the program. Teachers involved this year are Allan Cook, Mrs. Kathy Mullen, Mrs. Pat Jamieson, Mrs. Trudy Palys, Dick Seaborn, Bill Snow, Mrs. Margaret Stenzel, Mrs. Mabel Weber and Mrs. Evelyn Zvonar. Michael DeWolfe, head of Pupil Personnel Services for the district, helped with much of the planning and evaluation. Two Johnsburg students, Laura Baker and Rich Dschida, volunteered their services and worked with the children and teachers every day. They were a valuable addition to the program. On July 11, the children and the teachers visited the Railroad museum at Union, where they enjoyed a train ride and saw many old trains that have been restored and many in the process. On July 18, everyone visited the Follett Book Publishing company at Crystal Lake. The guided tours proved very profitable. On the last day of the program, awards were given for perfect attendance, out­ standing math and reading achievement. Many of the children received reading certificates for library books read this summer. The Title I program em­ phasized not only the basic math and reading skills, but worked with the children's attitudes toward reading, math and self-image. The teachers and administration desire feedback concerning the program. If thereare any questions or comments about the program, call the James C. Bush school, 2117 W. Church street, McHenry, 385-3731 and ask for Mr. DeWolfe. /St 9 and the board or education^ expressed pleasure to be able to» offer this program to the children of the district and make use of the facilities foi; these additional weeks after the r close of the regular scho^ •> ! / , uol *t?. 4 term. Unemployment Survey Local representatives of the Bureau of the Census will conduct a survey of em­ ployment in this area during the Work week of Aug. 20-24, Stanley D. Moore, director of the Bureau's Regional Office in Chicago, announced today. The survey is conducted for the U.S. Department of Labor in a scientifically designed sample of approximately 76,000 households throughout the United States. Employment and unemployment statistics based on results of this survey are used, to provide a con- ine int^T of th*^ >men itf,, >>3i rI tinuing measure of th$^ economic health of the nation.' For example, in June the survey indicated that 102.5 million men and women ,, the civilian labor force, 96. million were employed. The nation's unemployment rate-* was 5.6 percent , it has been lrf the 5.7 to 5.9 percent range fo most of the past year. • " Information supplied by individuals participating in the. * survey is kept strictly con-j» fidential by law and the results.'» are used only to compile! statistical totals. rat Release In County Withdrawn It has been announced that the authorization to remove corn from the farmer-owned grain reserve has been with­ drawn. Storage will continue for all producers with corn that will remain in the reserve. Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland said that though the mid-March price for corn reported by the Economics, Statistics and Cooperatives Service (ESCS) is above the release level - $2.73 per bushel for corn -- the market price for the grain has been on the downtrend since mid-July. In addition, the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) daily average adjusted price on July 30 was below the release level for corn. The $2.44 5-day moving average price for corn was 6 cents per bushel below the $2.50 release level. This is one exception in which a producer may redeem corn from the reserve without penalty. No penalty will be assessed if a farmer, before being notified that release is terminated, has negotiated a bonafide sales contract which calls for delivery within 90 days. However, storage stopped for these loans July 31. Beaches Posted Unsafe Water, samples collected from swimming beaches by the McHenry County Department of Health Aug. 6 and 7 were obtained from several beaches on the Fox river and from some of the lakes in the county.
