Mixed Review For "Godspell 9 9 BIRTHS A group of highly talented young people went on stage at the Woodstock Opera house last weekend to open a three-week run of the musical "Godspell". McHenry actors and singers were cast in major roles. Watching this portrayal of the Gospel according to St. Matthew, written in 1971, one could not have expected a more professional per­ formance on any stage. There was no evidence of opening night stage fright as a well trained cast took obvious delight in presenting a production they thoroughly enjoyed. The music, described as "soft rock", was executed with skill. Even older members of the audience could enjoy this new treatment of melodies which made their debut in the changing musical world of the past 15 years. The rhythmic patterns displayed excellent attention to detail by young people adept at choreographic specifics. We were equally impressed with the calibre of the voices both in solo and ensemble performance. Unfortunately, we were not as favorably affected by the vehicle for this fine performance. "Godspell" may have a message to tell, but it was spoiled for us by an exaggerated humor which too often came across as absurd. We would have liked to at­ tribute our opinion to the fact that we were born long before 1950, but this is not the reason. We have seen modern comedy that had appeal in its cleverness. The story of "Godspell" failed us in this respect. KAF 12th District GOP Women Set Luncheon The McHenry County Republican women held their meeting at the Nunda township office building recently with President Virginia Brunschon presiding. Discussion was held on ideas for fund-raising activities at future events of the Republican party. The group is considering the possibilities of a spring luncheon. Members also plan to make a quilt and will begin as soon as the pattern is laid out. Badges have been ordered for the members and the McHenry County G O.P. Women pins have arrived and are available to anyone who wishes to purchase them. Due to the legislators being in session, Rep. Jill Zwick was not able to attend the meeting. Louise Kreutzer presented House and Senate bills of interest to the group. A date for the next meeting was left open until the county calendar could be reviewed so there would not be a conflict of dates.

MARCH 16.1983 Resume-Interview Skills Subject On NAFW Seminar COMPUTER MAGIC-Bill Anderson, choir member at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, is shown near his home computer in an expansion of high technology, programmed four-voice song rendition. The senior choir of the Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church of McHenry had a surprise in store for them at their rehearsal Thursday night, March 3. Bill Anderson, choir member, in a creative expansion of high technology, programmed a 4- voice song rendition into his home computer. He was thus able to assist senior choir director, Eleanor Johannsen, and organist, Rosemary Schneider, in leading the choir through what had been a somewhat difficult timing exercise in the music piece "Speak To One Another" by Jean Berger. Anderson ran the computer through a one-verse sampling to show that while not equipped with voice syn­ thesis it did reproduce the true pitch of tones with exacting precision of beat timing. With complete control of timing, the choir was able to try Mr. Roland Baumbach of Palatine, 111. is the paternal grandfather. Great- grandparents include Mrs. Clara Baumbach, Mrs. Rose Goebbert and Mrs. Cecilia Blume. different speeds during practice singing. The final choir rendition of the song was completed with much mutual satisfaction. The group applauded Bill Anderson for his five and one-half hours of computer programming. Eleanor Johannsen and Rosemary Schneider agreed that the computer will help in cases of timing dif­ ficulties. However, they said, the need for music expression and, so far, not possible to be expressed by a com­ puter, is equally paramount in im­ portance and needs the eyes of the singer focused on the choir director. Monday, March 21, from 7:30 to 9 p.m. at the Crystal Lake Ambutal, the Fox Valley chapter of the National Association of Future Women (NAFW) will sponsor a mini-seminar on Resumes and Interviews: Your Key to Getting the Job You Want.

According to Marsh, most people restrict their career opportunities by viewing the interview too narrowly. The seminar will explore 'in­ formational' interviewing-the most productive career enhancement tool for people who are underemployed. unemployed or seeking a career' change. Ms. Marsh will discuss avenues of help on these issues. A counselor, consultant and trainer in career management and organizational development, Ms Marsh has founded two statewide consumer advocate organizations serving as executive director of the ; Indiana Nutrition campaign.
