SO I HEAR Ay €ax£. Wedh&A. On Sunday night we had an invitaton to attend the Forester ; bowling banquet at the McHenry Country Club. Of course, we attended as we have attended so many of their enjoyable gatherings in past years. This was the group from the Palace and it was the twentyfifth year anniversary of putting on a dinner for the ladies. In this group were George P. Freund and Henry Schaefer, a pair who have been in t!ie league for 40 years. Forty years ago there were two lanes above what is now the Althoff building occupied by Ruck's Hardware store. George was full of historical stories and amusing yarns about those early days. They used wooden alleys, but there is no truth to the story that they used wooden bowling balls. We have seen many new faces through those years at those gatherings. Many old time friends have been called to their great reward and it was impressive to hear Father Baumhofer lead a prayer for those departed friends. Albert Blake did a bang-up job in planning the .party and put it over in great style. . It was a laughing, jolly group of reed people. And we like to be with real people. The major league teams start their way toward home this week for the opening of the baseball season. Most of the rookies are heading back to the minors for seasoning. A few catch on, but lineups will show most of the names we saw last year. It's a hard fight to the top. Manager AI Lopez hasn't come around to ask us or we would tell him to trade off a pitcher and somebody for a big fellow who can clout the ball. That bunch needs punch. If those Minnesota Twins have picked up any pitching talent, they may cut quite a swath "with their heavy artillery. If Pete Ward's injuries do not clear up, we wonder how far out in front of the Yankees our Sox can stay. Notice how the pitchers are ahead of the hitters? That new strike zone must be the answer. There wern't many "300"' hitters last year when the zone went from the arm pits to the shoulders. * Ouftdoora By Jack Walsh As spring comes in and the past year's bird seasons have become fond memories, most hunters like to unlimber their 22's and go out plinking or target shooting. Until now, it has been an undisputed fact that the consisten accuracy gained from "standard velocity" and "match type" ammunition was not obtainable when using "high velocity 22's." The Cascade Cartridge £ompany has recently developed a Hyspeed .22, and tests made by a disinterested party show that hot little pill will equal the best standard velocity ammo and will come surprisingly close to shooting done with match cartridges. This being the case, it may no longer be necessary to sight-in a rifle with standard bullets and then hope for the best when using the faster stuff. Best of Breed Champion Merri Minx of Idyl Dell won best of breed over an entry of nineteen at the Chicago International Dog show Saturday. A toy Manchester Terrier, she is owned and was bred by Mrs. Bill Chrisman and shown by Mr. Chrisman. Idyl Dell Acres Ramrod, an eight month old Toy Manchester terrier puppy, won best of winners for a 4 point major toward his championship at the same show. This was his first appearance. Shetland Ponies To Be Featured At Benefit Show Carroll College sent us a neat Sports Brochure and we find Bob Vaupell listed as one of the men making the 1964 golf outlook look good. Bob is a junior now and won letters as a freshman and sophomore. He's a McHenry man! * If we could believe these po- - liticians the way they slam each other, there isn't a good inan in the whole gang. Oh, «ihey can't be that bad! Nowadays they don't even •say "my worthy opponent". We were sorry to hear of the death of a good friend William Pries, Sr. In early days, he •^ave us great encouragement and was always true to "S.I.H." Any of you readers have a good name to take the place of "Pinups"? Let us know, if you have an idea. «' A bathing beauty is a gill worth wading for. Six matched Shetland ponies pulling a miniature antique lire engine will be one of the feature attractions at the fii'st annual Countryside Hospital Benefit Horse Show May 30 and 31 at the Lake County Fairgrounds.

TEE McHENBY PLMNBEALSE a Thursday# April 9# 18B4 BOARD ACTION T0DE1HMNE SCH00LV0TE Fate Of Citizens* Committee Depends On Authorization Whether a citizens' referendum committee is called into action depends on the Harrison school board expressing a unanimous public position in support of a referendum. James L. Bixby, organizing chairman of the committee, said he could not justify willing the time of many people willing to serve on the committee without the full and unqualified backing of the seven-man school board. Bixby, in a letter Feb. 15, offered to form the committee to seek passage of a referendum to help solve the district's financial deficit. The board cast a 4 to 2 vote to accept the committee's services. There were thirty-seven persons named as charter members of the committee, and many more have since indicated their willingness to serve, Bixby said. In addition to the split-vote, neither has the board formally accepted by letter of authorization the committee's services. Dr. Raymond H. Watkins and Henry C. Setzler cast the two negative votes, and were not in support of two previous attempts to increase taxes 29 cents per $100 assessed valuation last year when the community defeated the referenda. Floor Committee Mrs. Jay Hansen, William Cristy, Joseph Sullivan and Wilbur Haak fav<^j*ed formation of the committee. Dr. S. L. Ruggero, board president, was absent when the vote was cast, but favors the committee's services. "In a community, divided as it is on the issue, it would be difficult enough to get a referendum passed even with unanimous board support," Bixby noted. ' If, after the board election, a unified position for a referendum is indcated, Bixby said the committee would be called into meeting and a permanent chairman name& at that tim^ Bixby explained that in Mis What Mother Nature giveth.

Katharine Neumann, home adviser, and Mrs. Genevieve Hughes, assistant home adviser, on Wednesday, April 8, at 1:30 p.m. in the social hall of St. John's Lutheran church, Woodstock. The roll call was answered by one representative from each unit, entitled, "A 'special' which my unit is planning." Both Mrs. Neumann and Mrs. Hughes spoke on accessorizing and had four members act as models. The local leader training for the May lesson will be given by Mrs. Marguerite Lynch, Family Life specialist of the University of Illinois, on April 15 at 1 p.m. sharp in the Farm Bureau auditorium. The subject is, "How to Recognize Mental Illness." In the evening at 7:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., Mrs. Lynch will give baby sitting training to the 4-Hers, their mothers and club leaders. This is an unusual opportunity for the girls. opinion after a board has debated an issue and voted, the board should unify behind majority opinion and present a unified position of support before the public, which has not been the case with respect to previous referenda attempts at Harrisbn. It seems, the problem of money has placed the school board and the community-- on the threshold of curtailing activities of educational value to youngsters, Bixby noted. A bachelor's life has been defined as a splendid breakfast, a tasteless, flat dnner. and a most miserable, lonely supper. THURS. & FRI.. APRIL 9-10 Wed..

These cases represent only those reported by the 88 poison control centers in the state, and about 80 other hospitals that voluntarily report although, they are not official centers. IMPROVED DRIVING Here's a pood way to improve your driving performance: After you have finished using your car for t lie day. take a few minutes to jot down a check list of the driving boo-boos you have made, or almost made. This suggestion is offered by the Institute for Safer Living, which states that the act of writing down driving errors, especially minor ones, tends to impress them upon a person's mind and thus helps to correct little mistakes that sooner or later may lead to a big accident.

Well, he was puzzled by it all and he asked St. Peter for an explanation. "Don't you remember." said St. Peter. "Your wife said ' Be an I nn^el and lot me drive." Now that we are well rid of that joke we'd like to triake the point that accident records show that lady drivers are safe drivers though they are perhaps not so quick with technical explanations of what rrtay or may not be ailing their cars. A lady driver who came into our parage recently had just had her fuel pump replaced because a mechanic told her thai the fuel smell in her car was coming from the pump which had failed. She would have saved herself the price of a new pump if she had known that the engine could not operate if.--fho pump had failed. A t,r<{solinp smell is always a reason to check your car with a garage hut il you don't know cars then know your garage. Most ladies do not know that it is quite safe to shift to a lower gear in automatic transmissions when going down hill. This is known as compression braking and won't harm the car. A lady driver wo know was determined not to worry over the odd noises of her car and turned on the radio only to be startled by a really odd noise it was a commercial for mufflers.
