Sec. 2 - Pg. 2 - Plaindealer - Fri. March 7, 1969 KIWAN1S GIVES TO FAMILY OF LEUKEMIA VICTIM Edward Guettler, chairman of the Kiwanis club of McHenry Blood Bank, announced that the Kiwanis club approved donating eighty-nine pints of blood to the Gene Dyer family of this county. " Scott E)yer, age 9, a leukemia victim, died Dec. 14, 1968. ;He was first stricken Aug. 23 and in the intervening time over 200 pints of blood were needed. Some of the blood was made up by family members, friends and relatives; however, there were still eighty-nine pints to be paid for or replaced when the Kiwanis club of McHenry found out about the situation and offered the eighty-nine pints from the Blood Bank. In an interview with Mr. Dyer, he stated if people only understood the need for whole blood, anyone having the opportunity of joining a blood bank would certainly do so. He stated that while tte^nonetary value of the gift of blood helped alleviate over $4,000 of medical expense, sometimes the problem of finding sufficient whole blood to keep someone alive is more important than the money. He urged everyone to join the McHenry Community Blood Bank sponsored by the Kiwanis club of McHenry, ^ Ed Guettler, chairman, urges everyone who is not aJready a member to immediately contact a member of the Kiwanis club regarding becoming a donor.

The waist and hips are held captive in antique belts, in rows of finely tailored chains with multiple texturings, in chains blatantly buckled, in chains of flowers, in chains lit up with sparkle arrd semi-precious' glitter. The neckline that plunges, the shirt that opens, reveal an abundance of chains mixed with beads or crystal . heavy with pendants. Lots of necklaces and belts are interchangeable for a double play on fashion, according to jewelry Industry Council. , In another vein entirely, the flower boom turns on the whitest enamels, blooms in the softest color tones, and the make-believe .mother-ofpearl. Fashion jewelry finds this spring a generous provider of new finishes, of intricate, hand-etched enamels. Rings are still the happening things, transforming every hand with the quiet elegance of the Old World, the extravaganza of the New World. Earrings range far and wide. There are the bold button spreading over the ear, the gypsy dangles, the tapered wedding-band hoops, the heirloom cameos, the chunky opaque stones. The mini earrings in the lightest, gossamer pastels are budding out this spring. Bracelets are the impudent way to go modest with the bare look of the Twenties and the Forties. They add up row upon row of golden links, shaking beads and tubes of plastic, bold bangles of mesh. from HISTORY'S SCRAPBOOK) , DATES AND EVENTS FROM YESTERYEARS J Discovery of the South Pole was announced by Amundsen, Ma^ch 7, 1912.

Crisply tailored men's wear fabrics make fair promise to let a girl interpret the pantsplus look her way, in classic patterns, often heavily textured. Plaids, tweeds and checks dominate the theme.

Florals spring up, as it happens, to headline the news in print with wild flowers and formal gardens. They provide the basis for nostalgic patterns that borrow from the past the French toile, Victorian wallpaper and tapestry patterns. Strong primitives reminiscent of early art forms and bold abstracts balance the possibilities. All kinds of embellishments lavished on all kinds of fabrics appear in the manner influenced by the European couture. Beads, braids, ribbons and massive embroidery' in stylized geometric pat-, terns depart for gala evenings. Flag-waving red, white and blue in trio or tandem parade through spring -- as do the pastels. Peach, coral, mauve (either alone or as accents) and soft, silvery gray lead to a romantic mood. TRAVELING FASHION Fashion makes it easier to travel with a whole wardrobe of changeable looks. The new math adds up a dress or tunic over pants, jumper and blouse over pants, skirt over dress over pants.
