The two young men were gone about three weeks and during this time they visited many changing scenes and: - places of interest, with over a week' : spent at Los Angeles, where they vis- j ited in the Victor Meyers home. Victor is a former McHenry resident and no doubt, many friends here will en- j joy hearing directly from him. j The entire trip was made without car trouble and good roads and pleas-' ant weather added to the enjoyment! of the trip. f j The first stop of great interest was. made at the Mineral Wells in Texa^j where the famous Crazy Crystals are made. 4 J The Carlsbad Cavern National park' was also visited and several, hours1 were spent exploring the immense cavern 750 feet underground. Many different rooms were visited, requiring! a walk of about five miles, with lunch' served in the dining room as the tour j of the underground cavern required from 10 a. m. to 3 p. m. Elevators carry visitors to and from the depths of the cavern or visitors may walk the j distance as they desire. { Entering California at San Bernadino they found the weather.mild and* warm, but only twenty-five miles dis-j tant, up in the mountains, they visited j Lake Arrowhead, a winter playground, where all was ice and snow and winter sports are enjoyed and winter togs are worn. Attend Rose Parade Reaching Los Angeles and Hollywood on New Year's eve, Vernon and| his cousin. Roy, enjoyed New dear's day in the warmth and sunshine of California, a change indeed from the1 snow and cold weather of their home! town. They attended the Rose parade on New Year's day, where theyj saw a flotilla of floral fantasy glide through the foothill city from the land of make-believe to dazzle a million or more eyes. It was Playland's Fantasies, the forty-eighth annual version of the world famed Tournament of Roses. In a profusion of floral beauty, a display of artistry, of music and imagination, the parade touched heights of excellence unattained before and fabulous characters of story book fame came to life as the petaled gates of fairyland swung ajar and a magic procession wound its way down palmlined streets. Flashing the infectious smile that had endeared him to millions, Leo Carrillo, the gay caballero of the films, led the procession on a pranc-j ing horse of white and tan. He wav- j ed his sombrero, made eyes at the ladies and set the tempo for the fun to come. I Then in rapid succession came sixty' floats, sixteen bands and hundreds of| blooded horses in trappings worth i $100,000. j The folks of fairyland marched by with Little Bo Peep, Humpty Dumpty and the Old Lady Who Lived In a Shoe and many more there. For two hours they lived and then they disappeared, their jaunt ended, at least luifcU. another New Year's day. Visit Battleship Roy Meyers had a friend in the navy who made it possible for the Illinois boys to visit and inspect the battleship j U. S. S. New Mexico. The ship was j anchored three miles out in the harbor at Long Beach and was a most interesting sight. j A days was spent in old Mexico, i where the open markets and unusual sights were of great interest and na-i tive souvenirs were purchased. A visit was also made to San Fran-j cisco, where the Golden Gate bridge j was crossed and Alcatraz Island, the | present home of A1 Capone, was seenj in tfie distance. j Friends were visited at Richmond,! Cal., and a day and night Were spent j in Death Valley at the Furnace Creek i Inn. j Leisurely pursuing their trip home, a visit was made to Boulder Dam, the Petrified Forest and Painted Desert in Arizona, as well as many other points of interest along the way. Educational and interesting, the trip will always be remembered by the two young men.

Coach Reed, Guest'Speaker Gerald G. Reed, athletic coach and teacher at the high school, was guest speaker of the evening and gave a most interesting address -on the differences in the commercial and industrial situation between Russia and America, speaking from experiences of his summer trip to Russia. Illustrating facts with a fine collection of pictures enlarged to about a 15 by 24 inch size, Mr. Reed spoke convincingly of the advantages of the United States in contrast to conditions in Russia, where shortage of ra w materials limits the people to poverty and hardship. Speaking of the Russian situation in the different types of enterprises familiar to this locality such as clothing,! shoes, paper, automobiles, etc., he brought out the fact that there was ; a scarcity of clothing, shoes and leather goods. - j Considerable linen is worn, and the wool industry is good in Russia, but] tailored clothes and suits are at a pre- j mium. Illustrating this point Mr. | Reed told the story of a tourist whose coat was stolen form his room but; money, passports and other contents' of the pockets were left in the room. | Leather is very scarce and paper is HAND INJURED 'OCTU A i l U I I X I INC0ENHUSKEE 25TH ANNUAL Robert Hunger received a severe in-< jury to his left hand Thursday, abou£ noon; when it was caught in* a corit: husker at the W.
