PAGE 19- PLAIN DEALER - FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 14,1*M Neighborhood news ' Bauer families awarded float trophy fourth year in a row The Bauer families of Ringwood again entered a family float in the Johnsburg "Sauf und sDjel" parade. Their float was titled, "Ringwood Salutes the Olympics" and it consisted of two wagons with the grandchildren of Georgia and Rog Bauer and Dorothy and Urban Bauer representing Olympic participants. Katy Christopher 385-8037 Doris Low 653-9262 On the first wagon was Jason Chambers and Paul Huff as farmers, stopped by their tractors in the field, to watch the torch bearer, Chad Bauer, as he passed their area to the Olympics. The police escort was Matthew Huff on his motor­ cycle. The second wagon was the Olympic stadium with the large torch symbol. The boxer in the ring was Steven Bauer; weight lifter, Scott Chambers; swimmer, Nichole Huff; gymnast, Christy Chambers; and marathon runner, Courtney SchmitL. All were dressed in costumes to represent what they were doing. These are the children of Kevin and Lynn Bauer, Sandy and Jim Huff, John and Pam Chambers and Larry and Noreen Schmitt. Lots of time, labor and ingenuity is used by the Bauer clan for their floats. They use whatever is available in the basement and the barns and their imagination and do not go out and buy a lot of materials. The imagination of this lamily is fantastic and they work well together; especially to be able to bring home the "Best of Parade" trophy for the fourth year in a row. Congratulations to the Bauers and their families.

SUMMER VISITORS Demitri Peliwan of Lilymoor, spent many hours clearing the road sides, burning debris and making his area more attractive so that visitors from Europe, who had never been in our country .before, would be pleased with what they saw. A former neighbor of Mr. Peliwan's in Romania, whom he hadn't seen for 42 years, was the special guest. They recognized each other, showing that even 42 years doesn't change some of us too much. Joining in the trip were the neighbor's wife and a relative of Demitri's. There were many other guests during the Romanians'stay. All added to the visitors' happiness, so they did not feel the trip cost more money than was received' in pleasure. The weather cooperated, too, so the five weeks spent in the states and Canada went quickly, giving the travelers much to tell about on their return to Romania. PLANS FOR THE FUTURE Jesse LiChard, a senior at East Campus High School, had had a busy summer in which he made some important decisions. He will be completing his senior year in mid-term, but will receive his diploma with the rest of his class in May. Jesse is working toward a future where he will be known as Dr. LiChard, and being aware of the long schooling needed, has joined the air force as his first step toward a college education. Jesse's first trip to downtown Chicago was under the auspices of the air force. He and the other young men wishing to be a part of their country's armed forces, spent an overnight at the Americana Congress Hotel, which was an exciting time for Jesse. The next day, after a hurry-up-and-wait physical, the young men were sworn into the air force under the delayed entry program. The big project at the LiChard home this summer was building a garage, in which all family members were involved. What with working at the Longhorn Restaurant, and now with school activities, including being editor of the East Side Story, Jesse's busy summer is continuing into the remainder of the year. It is good to hear of the positive plans some of our young people are making. We wish Jesse continued success in school and in the air force. CELEBRATIONS Fred Thornton of Lilymoor will be wished health and happiness on his birthday, Sept. 16. Two other Iilymoorites recognize their day on the 17th, Sherrill Weber and Wayne Meyer. Mark Betancourt adds a year on the 18th; and wishes for peace to go Sara Watkins of Hidden Valley Acres the same day. Harold Nixon, Jr., starts his third year in the twenties on the 19th.
