Speaker McHenry Junior Hunter Safety Club On Saturday, April 7, the rifle club held the first in the series of "championship" matches for this year. .They will, take part and decide champions in each of the four different positions -- prone, sitting, kneeling and standing. Saturday's match was for the prone position. Runners-up for, the match were Denny Marshall and Joe Sanford, who were tied with "Buzz" Jensen until "Buzz" came up with a score of 42 points out off a possible 50, and Denny and Joe had to sadly bow out with, their otherwise excellent scores. The junior division has 40 out of 50 points as the highest necessary for any marksmanship awards. So, even with the 40s they didn't quite make the top honors. In addition to the '56 prone championship,. "Buzz" Jensen also holds the' '55 champ award for the sitting position and the highest score bf the club's 16-month, existence -- that being a 46. As an individual, he is one of the original members, also one of the boys to receive certification of competence in the N.R.A. Hunter Safety course, is the present club president, and a very useful member of our organization. "Hats off to him and the youth of today, who proudly carry the name of the National Rifle association and all of the senior club's merits and purposes. Mason Contractors 13 and Lr Builder* of New Construction and Remodeling COHST!lJCTl©N COMPAHY PHONE 409-R BOB PEPPING LEO KBABBENHO^ g* ELECT OFFICERS OF WSCS; MISSIONARY is GUEST SPEAKER Miss Ellen M. Studley, Methodist missionary and worker in China from 1924 to 1951, is to be guest speaker at the regular W.S.C,S. meeting at the Community Methodist church in McHenry on April 19. Miss Studley's first mission station was Changli, small and rural in North China. After working there, until 1938, she was then transferred to Peking to a Protestant-supported school which trained Chinese women evangelists. Remaining there until 1951, she was thus under the Communist, or Red-dictated People's government, from '49 to '51. The situation changed so during these year§ that open continuation of their work endangered her Chinese colleagues. Leaving, Miss Studley was granted eight months travelling time to visit various countries of southern Asia and Europe, including India, Israel, Germany, England and North Ireland. Appointed in "1952 as counselor to Chinese students and alumni in the Chicago area, Miss Studley still remains, in that position, where she has helped many who would have returned to their own land but have been prevented from doing so by political conditions there. The meeting will start with guided worship in the sanctuary at 12:45 p.m. and a dessert lunch and business meeting "will follow at 1 p.m.„ Election of officers is scheduled for this time.
