PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER • FRIDAY. JULY 25,1980 MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page I) Once after 1948 Charles Vycital was to head parade arrangements, but this time the event had reached such proportions that the chairmanship was shared with LeRoy Smith. Under the welcome shade of the Pearl street park trees, attention of the Vycitals turned this week to the band shell and a favorite topic ~ music. Had time permitted, Charles Vycital could have accurately, and with great enjoyment, told an entirely different story of entertainment in McHenry in another day. That will await some future issue. In this Fiesta week, the focus is on his role as parade chairman and the much anticipated reunion with his family. There were nine Vycital children, sons of John Vycital, who came to McHenry to seek his fortune in 1906. Eight of those children are living and all will be part of next Sunday's celebration. From Florida there will be Frances, who worked in the family business from a young age until her retirement, Elsie HooDe and Violet Harrison and husband, Claude; from Tulsa, Ok la., Helen Fowler; frofri Boise, Idaho, Dr. Richard Vycital; and from McHenry, Harold Vycital and wife, Henrietta, and Stanley Vycital and wife, Rut And sharing in the pride of I of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Vvcital. the Air force in Little Rock, Ark.; Jamie and Jason. From Leaver Major Gary Vycital, his wife, Samantha, Amy and Scotty. Fiesta day, 1980, will be many things to many people. To Charles and Mary Vycital -- and to the entire Vycital family -- it will be the culmination of a lifetime of service and a recognition they accept modestly. The family feels good citizenship is not a duty but a privilege to be given generously to a hometown that has given them priceless memories. KAF »rents will be the two sons t. Col.

Because of the dramatic increase in the Substance Abuse budget FS&CMHC staffers explained the em­ phasis on the program due to earlier underfunding. It had started out as a seed program for which much of the overhead was carried by the center. The added money will pick up some of these expenses, add a staff member and provide needed community education, they explained. Patients served ranged in age from 12 to 62 years, most of whom appeared to be ambivalent about changing their life style. They had been subjected to high use of chemicals and many were products of alcoholic parents and came from bad family situations. Most require long term therapy, and staffers noted that it is hard for people to be asked to give up something that makes them feel good (drugs). Charles Dennis, business manager, explained briefly how the computer had been introduced in the management of FS&CMHC, first as an accounting tool, and later for storage and retrieval of statistics and information. He said it also aids in evaluating produc­ tivity of the staff with the " en nine" system. Productivity is measured by counting the "heads" served and time spent, and they had recorded a 9 percent in­ crease in head count and 21 percent in hours spent. The agency's goal is to spend more time with the client. Eileen Hanson, director of Home Health Nursing for the county Health department, explained how she would use the $10,570 for the Sustaining Care program and $14,000 for the Early Identification and Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect program. The sustaining care con­ sisted of visits to insure that discharged psychiatric patients were receiving the required medication and to check on their progress. The success of the early in­ tervention program for child abuse prevention she noted depended on the cooperation of other agencies for referrals and leads. Their largest caseload was from high risk new born infants. Since* the separation of the family support function of the child abuse program from their early intervention duties, their client level had decreased Ms. Hanson noted, but saw no problem with that. About the money for the two home mental health nursing functions, she noted that it was needed but her staff did these things before they had funding for them. Judith M. Szilak, staffer in charge of the Family Sup­ port program (for child abuse cases) which is now operating "under the "umbrella" of the 708 board after being dropped by the County Health department, said the program operates mostly in clients' homes and is totally voluntary whether it is accepted, even if the courts mandate treatment in cases that go before judges. She noted that abuse seems to stem from stressful home situations where the stability of the family is threatened many limes because of economic reasons. Child abuse is not so common as "female abuse"--where the women fear that the children will become the next targets of abusive husbands or lovers. Ms. Szilak noted also that these are long term cases where probably less than 5 percent are closed because they have been resolved. Of the 53 persons presently in the program, she noted, 48 are adults and five children. She added that much of their efforts should be directed into education of key professionals at hospitals, clinics, schools and at Public Aid offices. In regular board business Smith reviewed the budget report for the month and noted what "looks like significant surpluses in some funds," and that they have used little of the Title XX funds allocated for this year. He also noted that the in­ terest on tax anticipation warrants had not been paid yet. And he said that for the five-year new programs for which money had been reserved, $20,000 had not been used. Two payroll items were paid from federal funding which contributed to major savings. On the federal side of 708 board budget business, the approved totals were $972,557 for contractual and $218,413 for administrative purposes. Following an executive session of the board, the members voted to follow the c o u n t y r e c o m m e n d e d guidelines for salary in­ creases for the coming year. These were indicated as 9 percent, consisting of 4 percent across the board boosts and a 5 percent discretionary (of agency head) increase charac­ terized as merit or incentive pay for above average performance.

REUNION ENDS LONG SEPARATION (Continued from page 1) permanent visa for the family of four. According to Perry and Maxine (Moy) Cwiak, trying to get the four people out, trying for a permanent visa, the immigration quota and various requirements - like proving that the host family is financially able to take care of the immigrants - all served to hinder efforts to get the visa. Right now, the Moys said, the family is trying to assimilate into American culture. "The kids were fascinated by running water," Perry said. "They love to wash their hands." The children were also amazed by the new cars and mechanical toys, Perry added. The family is helping out at the restaurant but members are not yet used to American food. "They have no taste for beef," Perry noted. Connie Moy came to McHenry with her three children, Perry, Jimmy and Maxine, in 1964 from Park Ridge, 111. She had moved to Park Ridge from Minneapolis after Kai Ho died in 1953. She lived with an uncle and it was there that Connie learned the restaurant business. In 1964, she came to McHenry and opened a carry-out restaurant on Main street, which has since expanded and blossomed into a prosperous business. On July 14, Perry went to Los Angeles to meet the family and help them transfer to another plane. "My plane was landing as they were getting off theirs," Perry said. "I had my sister's photograph and walked up to two different oriental couples before I found them." Home at last. The recent hot spell ap­ pears to have prompted thieves in the McHenry area to concentrate efforts on stealing air conditioners. Lillian Smith, of 2403 Holiday, McHenry, called the Sheriff's police Monday when she discovered that someone had stolen the outdoor part of a central air conditioning system. On July 22, Robert Sibdler, of Wonder Lake, noticed that someone had taken a window air conditioner from an unoccupied neighboring home, at 2203 Coolidge, Wonder Lake. In the early morning hours of July 16, someone stole a truck belonging to David Unruh, of 5111 Fountain lane, McHenry. The truck had been parked outside a McCullom Lake tavern. Kevin Wright, of 1106 Oakleaf, McHenry, called the police when he discovered that a .357 caliber revolver was missing from the nightstand in his bedroom. A chain saw and an out­ board motor were taken from a storage building at a summer residence on Coon Island Monday night. The property belonged to John Thyne, of Gurnee. William Wiser, of 5508 Fox Lake road, McHenry, reported the theft of several concrete forms from a storage area at the in­ tersection of Johnsburg road and Riverside drive. Donna Lindley, of 3611 Hilltop, Wonder Lake, discovered that an assort­ ment of jewelry, some food and five packs of cigarettes had been taken from her home.

Judy Wallace 344-3498 v 'Memo f _ mfl In an era when being employed by the same firm for 10 years is a milestone being the pastor of the same congregation for 25 years is a very unique experience. Such an experience will j be commemorated Sunday evening, July 27, after the 6 p.m. Bible Fellowship hour at Wonder Lake Bible church. , The congregation will be taking time to celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of the arrival of Rev. Richard N. Wright and his family to Wonder Lake. The first Sunday of July marked 25 years since Rev. Wright came as pastor with his wife and young son, Rick. At that time the small congregation was known as the Gospel center and met in the pastor's residence on Hancock drive. Through the diligent efforts of the young and vigorous pastor, the congregation grew until it out-grew the facilities on Hancock drive and had to build a large new building on Howe road which is capable of accommodating 350 Sunday School students. This building was completed in 1971, with plans for ex­ pansion in the not too distant future. Pastor Wright comes from Muskegon, Mich., by way of Moody Bible institute. In M i c h i g a n , h e m e t a n d married the former- Velma Olson. They have three sons, Rick, Tom and Dave. He is also the proud grandfather of Scott and Steve.
