OPEN HOUSE FOR NEW MINISTER (Continued froip page 1) ' He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Rudi Jirousek of Littleton, Colo., formerly of Wonder Lake. The young man was con­ firmed in Nativity Lutheran church, Wonder Lake, by the Rev. Warren L. Thummel, who greatly influenced his ministerial future. The Rev. Jirousek, who at­ tended McHenry Junior high school and graduated from M.C.H.S. in 1967, attended Midland Lutheran college, Fremont, Nebr. He completed studies at the Lutheran School of Theology, Chicago, just a week prior to his ordination. He was married to Janice M. Morton of Stewart, Iowa, at Nativity Lutheran church Oct. 20, 1973. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) for the city, it would probably be necessary to wait a year for delivery. The second point of irritation is the delay in opening Lillian street in Cooney Heights, connecting it to Grove. Resurfacing has taken place and all was in readiness for the go-ahead from the North Western Railway, which has the signals in place. Deadline was to have been June 1. As we learned from someone who has the information at his fingertips, it is something minor that prevents the city from taking down the barriers that will allow through-traffic. Go! Go! North Western! Explanations don't solve the "problem, but they may soothe tempers during the waiting period. And patience comes to he who waits. We have been waiting for more than ten years for the freeway project which is now promised to start in 1976, starting at the Illinois- Wisconsin state line and con­ tinue east to Rt. 31.At last, money has been released for the project. And after what seemed an interminable wait for westward drivers on Rt. 120, an­ nouncement came of the bid letting June 10 to improve the stretch of highway between Draper and Greenwood roads. In making the an­ nouncement, the Illinois Department of Transportation secretary, Langhorne Bond, made this historical utterance: "We were aware of the con­ dition of this road and the problems it has been causing the area residents". So were many of us! K.A.F. McHENRY QUEEN IS CROWNED (Continued from page 1) Marissa's surprise was ap­ parent. She told a reporter the next day, "I was very, very shocked and really happy. It was so unexpected that my father didn't even bring extra film for the camera." Marissa's grandmother, mother, father and seven-year- old brother, Phil, were in the audience cheering for the new queen, as were many of her friends from Marian Central. Marissa's brother, Chris, 13, and her sister, Adnrea, 9, were not present at the crowning. Following her coronation, Marissa received a beautiful bouquet of red roses presented to her by the ladies of the American Legion auxiliary and a trophy from Chamber of Commerce President Rick Lane. As she promenaded down the center aisle of the hall, tears filled her eyes. • "Ever since I was a little girls, I've always wanted to be in the contest," Marissa said. She was going to participate last year but then decided to wait until this year when she would be out of high school. '.'I really enjoyed being in the contest," Queen Marissa said. "We had so much fun, especially the day of the contest when we were all locked up together for the whole day." The new queen was active while in school on the girl's tennis team, the Ski club and in drama productions. She had one of the leading roles in Marian's Spring musical, "The Music Man".. Her hobbies include tennis, sewing and dancing. Marissa likes Softball, fishing, riding bicycles, traveling, shopping, crewel work and eating. The latter doesn't appear obvious considering the queen's measurements which are 34-23- 33. Marissa, who is employed part-time at a local restaurant, said, "I plan to work for the next year and then go on to school and get into the medical field." For the immediate future, Marissa is looking forward to her grand prize, a Chamber Of Commerce-sponsored trip to Florida and Disneyland. She and her mother will leave Friday, June 20, for an all- expense paid four-day vacation. William Dumalski is making all the arrangements for the exciting trip. For the swim suit com­ petition, Marissa wore a one- piece, white, halter bathing suit. For her formal^ ap­ pearance, she chose a cream- colored print, crepe, halter style gown. Prior to crowning the new queen, Miss Donna Humann addressed the audience and said even though former queens always make the same speech about how nice everybody is and how won­ derful and friendly the people are, she found in her ex- pereinces that, "it's really true". "The most rewarding thing to me was the people, the people of McHenry," she said with tears in her eyes. "You are beautiful people," Miss Humann said sincerely. The former queen also ex­ pressed her gratitude to the Chamber of Commerce for her "wonderful Jamaican trip". "My mother and I turned the place upside down," Donna said with a gleam in her eye. She closed by urging everyone to get involved in Marine Festival week activities which will be featured during the week of July 6-13. Sundae Morrison, who was recently crowned Lakemoor Junior Miss, was introduced to the audience Thursday night. She participated in the contest by holding a basket which contained questions that each contestant was asked to answer during contest proceedings. The program was opened by Ty Behrens, commander of American Legion Post No. 491. M.C. Bill Nye introduced 1974 Queen Donna Humann, who led the contestants onto the stage in front of three judges for the evening gown competition. Mrs. Sharon Nye instructed the contestants in poise, posture and make-up classes. She was assisted by 1972 queen, Nancy Stetter, 1973 queen, Nancy Staley, 1974 queen, Donna Humann, and Ms. Carol Van Duyn. Bunny Berndt, Patti Bit- terman and Kathy Freund handled hair care and hair styling for the contestants. The queen contest was sponsored-by the American Legion post auxiliary under the direction of Auxiliary President Lauretta Homo and her committee, Eleanore Reid Betty Lou Smith, Margaret Datz and Midge Scharf. A charm was given to each contestant from the auxiliary as a memento of her participation in the contest. The auxiliary also furnished the bouquet of roses for the queen and runners-up. John Stone handled lighting effects and Mrs. Dorothy Hollander played appropriate musical accompaniment on the piano. Judges were Ms. Colleen C. Brophy, flight attendant for Eastern Airlines; Bob Raynesford, regional manager of public relations for Eastern Airlines; and Russell P. Rasche, corporate attorney for Kemper Insurance. Rick Lane, Chamber president, outlined various activities that are being planned for Marine Festival week. Lane explained that the theme of Sunday's parade is "Mother Goose on Parade".!

WONDER LAKE QUEEN NAMED ON THURSDAY (Continued from page 1) queen at McHenry high school. Next fall she will attend Eastern Illinois university. The new. queen enjoys camping water and snow skiing, and is a talented singer. Announcement of the winner was applauded by a large crowd gathered in Nativity Lutheran church last Thursday night. The assemblage included Maureen's parents and eight of her nine brothers and sisters. In winning, she received her crown, $25 and a beautiftil bouquet of flowers. Miss Miller also was presented with flowers. The gifts were from the sponsoring Woman's Club of Wonder Lake. Each contestant appeared before the four judges in bathing suits, then in formals, and each answered one question. After announcement of the winner, Miss Fofliard was crowned by Bunny Berndt, 1974 queen. Miss Berndt conducted the charm course that preceded Thursday's judging. She was assisted by Ann Sow,ers, Alice McKiernan and Joanne Gran, members of the sponsoring club. Mrs. Vernon Gerhardt served as mistress of ceremonies. TOWN AND COUNTRY OPENS (Continued from page 1) the "Crouching Lion" where it is possible to hear the sound of a tropical waterfall, the color and the glamour of the island songs and dances and perhaps try the hula, the chairman is Florence Juswik. There will be no letdown in the "Irish Pub" where the audience will be entertained by singers, piano players, and quite naturally the Irish jig, the chairmen are Pat and John Coughlin, Helen and Tom Birmingham. "A Taste of Country" is country and western music presented at its finest; "Fiddle and bow, and away we go!" Irene Sabatka is chairman. The main production, which is being presented in the church hall, is entitled "Band Stand in the Park", directed by A1 Smith. This production will be presented several times each evening and will present songs and memories from years gone by to the present. The audience will leave the show with a song in the heart for it truly is a spectacular. Everyone attending will want to stop into restaurants lik£ the "Pizza Plenty," where all can enjoy a hot beef sandwich, or pizza, along with a glass of wine, and at the same time enjoy the strains of melodic tunes. Lynn Wember is chairman. And to those who might desire heartier fare, the "Warsaw Cafe" may be the place, serving the finest in Polish sausage and sauerkraut, pierogi. Authentic costumed waitresses will serve in the best Old World tradition. Chairmen are Lee Estis and Bob Waslowski. Between the school and church hall there will be a huge tent erected where one may sit and relax, as well as enjoy some refreshments. As one enters the building he will be given a program book listing all the shows and restaurants. There will be a floor plan indicating the various locations of each room so there is no difficulty in locating a particular night club or restaurant. Tickets are available at several local business places. Martha Dignan, ticket chair­ man. may be contacted for further information. LIE DETECTOR CLEARS POLICE IN DEATH (Continued from page 1) nothing to do with planting the knife. Regarding ownership of the knife, Cowlin said there were no fingerprints on the knife, no identification on it and no rust on it. Since there was no rust on the knife and this incident occurred in the evening (about 11 p.m.) Cowlin said "we can readily presume or assume that the knife wasn't there very long". On May 29, the McHenry county Grand jury ruled that no indictments be brought against Eisele regarding the'shooting of the youth. The Grand jury did request that investigation continue and that any further information be presented to it. The Grand jury is meeting June 17 and Cowlin indicated this and other information would be made available to that body of persons. A coroner's inquest was begun last Saturday at Crystal Lake into the cause and manner of Fitzgerald's death. It was continued to Thursday, June 19, at 7:30 p.m. to hear the testimony of one of Fitzgerald's companions who was not present at Saturday's hearing.
