Ringwood News Doris Low > 653-9262 Katy Christopher 385-8037 Mary Butler Eighty Years 11 An open house will be held at the Ringwood United Methodist church on Sunday, Nov. 22 in honor of Mary Butler who will be celebrating her eightieth birthday. The hours will be from 2 until 5 p.m. Hostessing the happy oc­ casion, vwill N be her daughters, Helen Ruth Stanek and Muriel Benoy, with their families,. They request there be no gifts; they desire only the at­ tendance of her many friends. BIG ONE FORJOEY Joey Daurio, son of Michael and Nancy Daurio, celebrated his first birthday Oct. 28 and it turned out to be an all-day affair. In the morning it was picture- taking time by a professional photographer, followed by breakfast out with mother and brother Mickey. Mickey saw to it that the kitchen was well decorated with balloons (a lot of blowing for a four-year-old) and streamers. Relatives stopped by in the afternoon and evening with gifts and enjoyed birthday cake. Sister, Michelle, was in school but got to share the fun when she got home and gave Joey her gift. BROWNIE TROOP 461 Brownie Troop 461 met in the home of their leader, Nancy Daurio, in Ringwood for an outdoor meeting Oct. 27. The troop includes three grade levels, first, second and third. The first grade girls were each given a bag of popcorn and were then to go out to a spot alone, and try to coax a bird or little animal to come and feed off the popcorn. This was done in a large open area and while the little girls were still within view of their leader, it was still a little unnerving to sit by yourself and try to coax a wild creature to come and . eat. Guess the creatures were as timid as the girls because they didn't'show up. Then there was a scavenger hunt for the first graders. The second graders were blindfolded and had to identify the objects found on the hunt by the first graders. There were some very in­ teresting, things to identify. In turn, the second graders set a trail for the first graders to follow. Everyone returned to the starting point without incident. The third grade girls were working on badges and one of the requirements was to follow a map to find animal homes in the area. The girls did a nice job locating them. Everyone practiced making square knots and all ac­ complished the task. It got dark quickly, so the building of a campfire was of particular interest to the Brownies. Potatoes cooked fast over the coals and each girl got a stick to cook her hot dog. Everyone was tired but very happy with the experience. The girls of this troop had an interesting experience at their last meeting. Earlier they had gone out to an or- I may save you money on auto Insurance." TONY CHUCK FICK LEWANDOWSKI in . 1308 N.

Wis chard to pick apples. At the meeting, they all made an apple pie. The leader and some mothers peeled and sliced the apples but the little girls measured the ingredients, rolled out the crusts, assembled the pies and each had a pie to take home for mother to bake in her oven. Sounds like the start of some great little homemakers. There are thirty-three girls in this troop and with the help of nine mothers, the girls ac­ complished their pie making in just an hour. Pretty good for six, seven and eight-year- olds. There are some Brownies and Girl Scouts who are in need of uniforms and if you have a uniform you would like to donate, please call Nancy at 653-9906.

PAGE S • PLAINDEALER UFO Talk At College FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of November 20, 1941). The names of 32 young men from McHenry county were released by clerks of Draft Boards one and two. Included from the McHenry area were Richard M. Kelley and Raymond G. Benoy, Ringwood; Felix C. Unti, Earl J. Plasus and Frederick H. Smith of McHenry. Miss Betty Brandenburg, 12-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Bran­ denburg, is the proud owner of a blue ribbon since her 3- year-old, long haired Dash- chund was judged best in the female class and also reserve winner for breed.

TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of November 23, 1971). Following an executive session of the McHenry County college board of trustees, members moved to enter into a one-year option to purchase 66 acres of land WHAT S NEW on Rt. 14, northwest of Crystal Lake, as a site for a permanent junior college. The property owner is Weber Addressing Machine Co. The option price of $12,000 is non-refundable but can be applied on the pur­ chase price of the land. Mike Brown was elected president of the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce at the annual general membership and election dinner meeting held at the McHenry County club. Others named to serve with him were George Thompson and Mel Prust, vice- presidents, and Rick Lane, secretary-treasurer. • • • * Some people feel that their neighbors have it pretty easy. • • * • Every minority has the idea that it should rule the nation. The U.S. government knows far more about UFOs (flying saucers) than it has told the public. That's the contention of UFO Researcher Robert Hastings, who will draw together the findings of , numerous researchers in a speech at McHenry County college Wednesday, Nov. 18. Hastings talk will be titled " U F O s - T h e H i d d e n History" and will reveal the contents of thousands of pages of once-secret government documents about UFOs. The documents have been released through the efforts of UFO research groups using the Freedom of Information act. Among the once classified items Hastings will review is a 1947 letter from Air Force General Nathan F. Twining which states UFOs are real, describes their appearance and recommends a secret project to study them fur­ ther. He will also discuss a 1953 CIA report which orders a covert public information program to debunk UFOs and a handwritten memo from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover which he says reveals the U.S. Army has secretly recovered at least one crashed UFO. The program will include a slide and tape presentation and an illustrated lecture. There will be an opportunity for the audience to ask questions. A small ad­ mission to the program will be charged at the door. Hastings is being brought to FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13,1M1 v MCC by the College's Student Life committee and will speak in the College lounge at 7:30 p.m. SMILES He (angrily)--Do you be­ lieve everything every fool tells you? She (sweetly)--Oh, no, darling, but sometimes you do sound so plausible. Where Else? The young lover was obviously reeling out a heavy line trying to impress the beautifiil young girl at his side. "Those warm lips. And those beautiful eyes! Where did you get those eyes?" The girl, unimpressed, "They came with my head." Come and see Ronald McDonald ! See Ronald McDonald, live at 4411 W.
