Regular meeting. ® August SI - Sept. 1 Annual Church Carnival--^Christ the King Church, Wonder Lake. 3)augAl LILYMOOR NEWS «By Laura Belford Lilymoor Association The July meeting of the Lilymoor association was held Saturday, July 13, on the south porch of Club Lilymoor. The meeting was called to order by president, Charles Rogers, with a roll call> of association officers. All officers were present and the minutes of the June meeting were presented by secretary Marion Leske and approved for the official record. Financial status of the association was also given. Business for this combined business- social included" ^ report on the road grading in June, membership dues for the second half of the current year, and report and discussion of the sanitary situation. In reference to the first of the above three, it is interesting to note that although the gradfhg was done under adverse circumstances and there were initially several complaints, the present status of the road is better than it was previously. Considering the heavy rainfall on the weekend of July 12, the graded roads stood up very well. There was no association plan.for applying gravel after this grading. The gravel which was laid on North Boulevard was subscribed individually, although the association acted in behalf of those residents in expediting the charges. , . ' Vice-president, Fred Fradinardo reported on sanitation and reminded summer residents and new members that weekly garbage pick-up is available through July and August. Fred answered several protests mentioning that the sanitation contractor for the association will not continue to service residents with 55 gallon refuge containers as it is impossible for one man to handle these. It is hoped that all members will put their pick-up in clean, covered containers not to exceed twenty gallons. Not only do these covered containers present a neat appearance, but they are not such easy prey to dogs and curious children. Several business items were held over for further consideration by the directors meeting including weed and thistle .control. Herman Crawley has investigated and is waiting word from the area commissioner on the latter. Several other items mentioned by members for consideration included the necessity of - posting the county blacktop (Center Avenue), individual members may obtain and use the weed cutter in the lake under certain circumstances, ways and rneans of obtaining some political representation for Lilymoor, inquiry for future mosquito control, and beach privileges for residents. No definite action was taken on these subjects but depending on the interest and co-° operation of tho. residents, many of them are worthy of the time and work necessary to fnake Lilymore a better community. Following the weighty business of the association, the membership adjourned to the Club for dancing, card, gossip, and fine refreshments. Host and hostess for the evening of fun and frolic were Mr. and Mrs. Herman Crawley who received the appreciation of all attending for making the evening quite enjoyable. RefreshV ments of coffee, supposedly served by the male members of the association. and a tempting assortment of homemade, cakes were enjoyed. by Lilymoor clansmen including Mullinac, Malecke. Leske, Crawley, Karmel and Belford. Also observed in attendance were Einspar. Haines and summer residents, Mrs. Michael Pipirzer, and Mr. and Mrs. Soutsos. Several sineles spotted on the dance, floor while Mrs. Fradinardo's Freddie entertained with the 'Charleston' included Mrs. Marie Dalton, Walter Einspar. Vernon Erhardt, and an unknown summer resident. We still can't make the names agree with the number present but probably a few members forgot to sign the attendance book including Mr. and Mrs. Alex Freeman of Prairie Avenue. SIGNED INTO LAW Gov. William G. Stratton signed into law a series of House bills that round out his traffic safety program. The last of ^the bills set up a drivers' education program in high schools; raise driver's license fees to $3 to pay for the program; require examination for any applicant 70 years.of age or over who wants to renew his driver's license; provide for an increase in the state police force from 600 to 1100; allow use of chemical analysis in ' determination of driver intoxication. Gov. Stratton also signed into law a measure which creates a Department of Audits headed by an auditor general. The new law establishes a system of post audits for all fiscal matters and financial transactions of the state. A bill which increased the amount of bond posted by the auditor of public accounts from $50,000 to $500,- 000 was also signed by the governor. House Bill 157, which exempts farm and dump trucks and similar vehicles from the 1955 splash guard law, was also signed. SHOP IN McHENRY by Lillian Bossier The second stated meeting of Bethel U.
