•bruary 10, 19! WV f:: '\- 1 A THE McHENHY PLAINDEALER I-- i; IAkeland park Page E1»Y»I» Committed ;e Projects In Area :\-r by Berniee Boyce On Sunday,-Jah. 19, the. beach ccynmittee met at Roy ftleineke's home. The meeting started promptly ait 12 o'clock and lifeted until 4:30. The main ^cojects >krere the coming carnival which will be held June 26- »*% The ride books will be available soon. Last year there Vjfife 500 books which were WR out completely well in fee advance of the carnival fyflth many families finding no books available, , so this year the committee has ordered 1000 books and tope this will take care of everyone. The next project was the west beach. Dredging will start this week if the weather is »ve the zero mark. They dredge out 40 feet and cut back 40 feet making a total of $0 feet. The beach area edge Will be 150 feet wide and will be cut in so that it will be a half circle edge. The dredging will be trucked over for fill to' the Park „ sijte, which in other words will be accomplishing two projects in one. The beach will gradually taper from nothto a depth of 4 feet. At depth there will be ropes with floats as a warning of approaching deeper waters. FYom this point the depth will continue gradually until a total depth of 6 feet which will actually be 7 feet as there will be a foot of sand at this point. There will also be- a diving float at this depth. Roy also tpld me that they H#e had to forego the cement slabs at each beach as the costs of these slabs is much too great if they are constructed properly. They have asked for bids on a large black top slab for the East beach where tennis can be played and dances can be held, however thib too depends on the price. I think we all owe Roy Meineke and hfe hard working committee mlebt of (hanks. i Woman's Club \ ( On Thursday, Feb. 6 fifty wos men braced the cold to attend our social night. A short business meeting was held with Ivy Lezak, vice president presiding in the absence --=of-our~president-Alice Qualver.| ^ : who, we were sorry to hear, v*s ill.) May I note that Ivy Cezak i,flid real well even though ishe was actually shaking in her boots. Marge Casey read the minutes from the previous meeting and Lee Glorch gave the treasurer's report. The following committees, entertainment and refreshments and by-laws had nothing to report, however Dorothy A^ineke, chairman of the ways and means, had a glowing report on the Snow Ball. $1000 was the sterling amount made on the Snow Ball. Dorothy asked that a vote be taken to turn this amount over to the L.P.P.O.A, to be added to the building fund for our community house. The vote was taken and was carried unanimously. Joan Krater, secretary of the I#>.P.O.A. gave the thanks to the women on behalf qf the association for their efforts and for the combined total of $2000 raised by the two Snow Balls and donated to the L.P.P.O.A. community house fund. Joan closed with a note of humor by saying, "Which only proves Who is the better half of the family--Let's face it." Dorothy Meineke also announced that another bake sale will be held on March 15, at Justen furniture store on Green Street. She said that each girl on her committee has been assigned certain blocks and would be contacting the wSmen in each territory for donations for the bake sale, so get oljt your best recipes gals. The meeting was then ajoumedand our, fun began. We had as our' decorations a valentine theme which was carried out throughout Jo Rizzo's basement and looked real pretty. Each table had a dish of valentine candies and bowls of pop-com on them. Games were played and everyone seemed happy with the prizes we had selected. The women were served cake and coffee. The' cakes were really beautiful with all the valentine trimmings. 1 wish to thank my committee for baking all the cakes and for all the help they gave me. They are Lucille Jones, Helen Haynes, Alice Quaiver, Betty Bockman and May Deja. I also want to give special thanks to Jo Rizzo for all the work She did to make our social a huge success. Thanks, gals, you're wonderful. Sportsman's Club On Thursday evening, Feb. 6, the Sportsman's Club of Mc- Cullom Lake had a "Movie" night for the families and fri&nds of their members. It was held at tTie Legion Hall with forty-five people present. The movies were in color and sound and by all I hear they were just beautiful. The movies shown were, "Honkers of Illinois" which was a picture on geese. "Silver Tip" which was a picture on Moose and Deer. As an added attraction for the children a Mickey Mouse movie was shown. I bet the grown-ups enjoyed it too, another movie night is planned for the middle of March. Watch for the date in my coming columns. I am sure there would have been a much larger attendance if it hadn't been that it fell on the same night as the ^Woman's club it really was worth seeing. Floyd Frye, secretary of the Sportsman's club announced that there are still 150 pheasants to be released at their controlled shooting area. Good huntin' sportsmen.'

Sneakies No names mentioned, so relax, but if the shoe fits, wear it. One of our women club members had a very embarrassing incident happen to her. She lost her girdle. One of our well known Lakeland Parkers has been dieting and exercising like mad. Her sister-in-law ,who lives across the street was watching her from her window and had a good view of the proceedings, March of Dimes Thank you to everyone for your generous contributions to the March of Dimes collection. Rita Simpson was chairman for Eastwood Manor and helping her were Marge Pickett, Mr. Sheehy. Lois McCormack, Betty Lahman, Donna Rohrer, Jackie Grom, Marilyn Fultz, Betty Radner. and Carol Hayes. We think these folks deserve a lot of credit for going out in the cold and snow to do this job. Collections from small communities like ours all over the country have made possible the medical advances in the right on polio. This and That Rita and Tom Simpson entertained twenty-six relatives last weekend in celebration of four family birthdays which occurred within a week of each other. The Simpsons were glad there was snow on the ground but couldn't figure out why she shopped half way up, so took a better look. It seems that as this party got half way up from her toe touchings she would stop to take a drink of coffee out of a cup she had on a table nearby. Now who has a sister-in-law that lives across the street from them I know. Thanks again for all the news. 1 Bye now, see you next week. Claire Beauty Shoppe Phone McHenry 10 200 8.
