After enjoying An unusually sue-! cessful three-day njn, the Property j. Owner's , Association wound up its r»y Annual Festival of fun and Surety at our tltfli park last day evening. The attendance for the three evenings was well aver fifteen hundred mark. Ito success of this year's venture -can well be attributed to the splendid co-operation of all the officer* of the Property Owners Ass'a of Mc- Cullom Lake, as well as the members of their families, who gave so much of their time and effort to mains it a success. At least fifty applications for membership in this organisation of property owners were received by Al Watte, secretary, and b^.- :VV' i/K' McHENRY COUNTY REBIDENTS _ Also may Iftfe television and FM. ^ "W. , : TELEVISION RADIO CORPORATION ^1328 Lincoln Art _ 7 Chiang* 18, Phoos Juniper 0060. Be)*e Pavtdaen, vtc« SSftST the (the forgotten r--idstrta) who hbpe through their membership to avail themselves of the same Improvements enjoyed by their neighbors in the Estates section for which, the Property Owners Ass'n was responsible. It is quit* evident that the people of Knoll wood have great faith in the new administration headed by "Big Bill" Creutz and supported by "Uncle Dave" Davidsen and Al Wetle, judging from the large number of applications. To date the Screwy Dosen Social Club was the only organisation that kept Knollwood on the map. Their activities are strictly social and any funds derived through them are used! to promote parties and other enter-1 tainment for our youth, to make them better citizens for the future.' Public safety is also among then I aims. It was through their efforts i that McCullom Lake came through1 without one fatality this summer.; The installation of speed-limit signs, as w^ll as road patrol on the Mc-j Culloth Lake road, had much to do! with this record. To insure the same safety for our people within the community, Al Wetle informed us that in the near future speedlimit signs will also be posted on all our roads and violators will be vigorously prosecuted. Just another step forward to make McCullom Lake a safe community to live in. George Kiddelsen suffered serious internal injuries when his car struck a culvert on the Ringwood road at 9:80 Saturday evening. The car was wrecked beyond repair. George is at present confined to his bed in the Woodstock hospital and only member's of his immediate family are permitted to visit him. It is our prayer that his recovery will be a speedy one. The cause of the accident has not been determined. _ _iy see Papa Ray Aalto parsmhutetlng his new daughter, Osrol Jmu down ourj roads. According to (fumy delivery of the new baby carriage is expected daily. Judging from what we saw with our own eyes last Saturday evening the honeymoo.n is far from being o v e r f o r F r a n k a n d A n n i e Passalaqua. Give a man a moon and the right girl and anything is liable to happen.
