Vice- grand regent was Mrs. Agnes Schaefer. "Speedy but light" is what the Herald & Examiner sports writer thinks about the football team of the McHenry high school. Members of the local squad, with Coach McCracken and Assistant Coach Willis, had • theiirjncftires in the sport sectiVq^ofr the Examiner accompSnied by a neat little article which should please McHenry and make the boys feel pretty important, Misses Lillian Freund, Bernice Weber and Dorothy Walsh left on motor trip to Mattwn.Vis., and the Dells. Mis^«amd is enjoying a month's vacation from her duties at the Claire Beauty Shoppe, Miss Weber is employed at the Stoffel & Reihansperger Insurance office and Miss Walsh at the Overton & Cowan garage. ; FORTY YEARS AGO * , (Taken from the files of October 23, 1941) Figures released by County Clerk Raymond D. Woods reveal almost a half million dollar increase in the total assessed valuation of all property in McHenry county for 1941 as compared to the total of 1940. Exact figure of the increase is $477,990. McHenry was listed at $4,115,470. The third burglary of a McHenry county rural school house within a week was reported to Sheriff Lester Edinger by Miss Evelyn Peters, teacher at the Griswold Lake School District 10. Miss Peters said a radio, pens and pencils and other small miscellany had been removed from the school house some time the night before. A window had been forced. The school is located southeast of McHenry and ",teaSt"br,Bur- ton's Bridge. Bill Kreutzer won the pitching title of the year as McHenry County League members met recently At Crystal Lake to receive awards. Bill won 10 league games without a loss. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of October 25, 1956) McHenry is justly proud of one of its prettiest and nicest teenagers. She is 14-year-old Mary Lu DelMonte, who resides with her parents in Millstream subdivision and attends the local high school as a freshman student. Last summer she was selected to star as Linda McCandless, daughter of a Wisconsin dairy farmer, in a Disney movie. Starting Nov. 5 this 10-week serial will be seen on the Mickey Mouse TV show. So fast has her fame spread that Mary Lu was selected for a two-page feature of pictures and her life story in the Chicago American. McHenry, as part of the Rockford Catholic diocese, has a new bishop in the person of the Mast Rev. Loras T. Lane, whose ap­ pointment was announced. The diocese includes the 11 northwest counties of the state. Friends are happy to learn that Paul, 16-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Seeber of Sunset View subdivision, will appear on the Chicago amateur hour on Channel 9 television and WGN radio. He will play an organ solo, "Finger Boogie."
