Because of the postwar problems associated with these veterans, said Dennis Korzuchowski, of McHenry, "we have iost more men than we did during the war. About 57,000 men died in Vietnam, but 59,000 of the ones who came back have committed suicide." He also said that 300,000 more men have had slight or serious brushes with the law and that the divorce rate for Vietnam veterans is twice that for other men in their age group. Korzuchowski is president of the McHenry County chapter of a new organization especially for Vietnam veterans called "VietNow," which held an organizational meeting Monday night in St. John's Lutheran Church. There are about 4,500 men in McHenry county who served in Smith Vietnam. The primary purpose of VietNow is to be a support group, where veterans can get some help with problems and at the same time provide help and support for their fellow former soldiers. "It's hard for anybody to un­ derstand what it's like unless they went through it," said 34-year-old Korzuchowski. "I remember the surprise I had when I came home, landed in California and was greeted by a group of protestors. That just blew everything apart." Korzuchowski said VietNow will deal with a variety of veterans' problems, from physical ones like effects from the defoliant "Agent Orange" to emotional difficulties stemming from a condition known as "delayed stress." In addition to monthly meetings, VietNow wiU make available public service and group activities, a collection of Vietnam artifacts, media resources and a magazine and newsletter. In conjunction with VietNow, a group for wives of Viet­ nam veterans will be organized. Although VietNow was founded and headquartered in Rockford, the McHenry County chapter grew out of weekly sessions conducted on a volunteer basis by Alan Belcher of Woodstock, a counselor for McHenry County Court Services and himself a Vietnam veteran. Beginning last summer, Belcher conducted these meetings free for veterans to discuss and share their wartime experiences and any problems they may have had since. While his "rap" sessions are ongoing, Belcher said organization of the veterans group was "the next logical step in the progression to overcome their isolation and get out and tpiake contact with other people.". ./. Korzuchowski said Belcher's rap sessions "took a lot of pressure off participants by providing them with a forum "to get a lot of things off our chests.1' For the most part, Korzuchowski says he and his fellow veterans either were unable or unwilling to share their feelings and experiences with anyone else, including family and friends. "I knew a friend of mine from McHenry, Bob Fowler, for three years, but until the VietNow group started, I didn't know that he had served in Vietnam, too," Kor­ zuchowski recalled. "We never talked about it." The VietNow trademark is a beige cap bearing the name of the group and three sergeant's stripes. Kor­ zuchowski explains that latent problems stemming from Vietnam service do not discriminate according to rank. "We have members who served as everything from a private to major, and everybody is susceptible to problems," he said. "Every member being a 'sergeant' is just a way to show that now we are all equal." Korzuchowski also says the _only non-Vietnam veteran allowed to wear the cap is a longtime supporter, en­ tertainer Bob Hope, who is something of a veteran himself. Korzuchowski also says that VietNow is the only veterans' organization which Hope has endorsed formally. The McHenry VietNow group plans to continue meeting monthly at St. John's Lutheran Church, 401 St. John's road. For more information, call Korzuchowski after 4 p.m. at 344- 0049 or VietNow Vice President Dave Siedschlag at 338-3904. "This is a way for all of us to help each other," said Korzuchowski. VI feel better because I have been helped and because I know that I have helped someone else, too."

Competing at Harvard against schools from the northern half of Illinois, the Skyhawk band impressed the judges with its balance and "...excellent attention to detail in all phases of musical interpretation." I ' • In the five years since the school opened, Johnsburg has been proud to consistently earn top scores at all the JOHNSBURG HIGH SCHOOL BAND contests they have entered. School leaders say the students are fortunate to have a strongly developed begin­ ning and intermediate band program. By the time they reach high school, the students have participated in several levels of music instruction. At each level they are challenged to improve their own abilities at the same time as they strive for group supported goals. r Students from the high school music organizations will be performing in U7LC& DoCd C7, aCei E Wartime veterans 65 or older are considered permanently and totally disabled under the terms of Veterans Administration programs.

Math Laures has taken over the Henry Heimer building on the corner of Main Street and Route 61, where he will hold his grand opening next week. The entire first floor has been redecorated with cream color prevailing, giving the place a bright and cheerful appearance. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of May 6, 1943). The Most Rev. Samuel A. Stritch, D.D., Roman Catholic Archbishop of Chicago, officiated at impressive ceremonies in the Immaculate Conception chapel of St. Mary of Lake Theological seminary at Mundelein when 38 young Chicagoans embraced the Sacrament of Holy Priesthood. Among the 38 young men ordained was Charles O'Brien, grandson of Jacob Thies of McHenry. Another of McHenry's naval air cadets is LeRoy Hettermann, who is now attending the Pre-Flight school at Iowa City, Iowa. LeRoy left for ser­ vice last fall and was stationed at Madison, Wis., for a time. " TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of April 24, 1958). Young McHenry high school musicians rated very highly in state competition in Peoria, capturing five out of a possible nine first places in solo and ensemble competition. The school orchestra, under director Paul R. Yanda, also rated a first place which was noteworthy in view of the keen competition. First places in solo events went to Joann Smith, horn; Don Kice, tuba; several activities this spring. Some will play in the orchestra for the musical "Guys and Dolls" this weekend. Others will entertain at the Civil War days celebration spon­ sored by the Junior high school. On Wednesday, May 18, all the high school musicians will present their annual spring concert at the school. The public is encouraged to attend all these functions to hear the efforts of these students.

The office of Circuit Clerk Margaret O'Neil released a listing of traffic and quasi criminal distribution of fines and fees for the first quarter of the year totaling $71,984. McHenry's total was fourth high with $9,321.20. ' When custodian Marty Conway arrived at Parkland Junior high school he discovered the building had been broken into. Entry was gained by kicking in a plexiglass window. Numerous doors were forced open with pipe wrenches, rooms were ransacked, with drawers being opened and the contents scattered about the premises. The only room not entered was the sixth grade room. It appeared that the offenders knew just which rooms might contain money, such as the kitchen, office and library. fflirsHi-- a EXPAHPACLOSET The Complete Closet Organizer Like adding an extra closet.
