Hubert McGinn, chaplain of the* fifth largest Newman club of any" secular university in the United States, was guest speaker Monday night at the McHenry Country jclub, scene .of the Mother's iDay banquet of the McHenry court of the Catholic Daughters of America. I Guests from the state court included Celia Fox, state grand regent from Ottawa; Miss Eleanor Quinn, state grand Regent- elect from DeKalb; Mrs. Ethel Ronan, district deputy fpom Elgin; and their guests. |in his address, Father McGinn outfitted the program of the Newman ( foundation at Northern Illinois university. He described the present facilities at the university attending^ the spiritual, intellectual and social needs of the 1300 Catholic students now enrolled at DeKalb, pointing out the inadequacy of the present program. Fr. McGinn stated that by 1968 the university expects an enrollment of over 10,000 students. A huge building program is already under way to expand the university. With an expected enrollment of over 3,000 Catholic students by 1968, it is easy to see his concern and the present problem facing the Newman club at Northern Illinois university. The bishop of Rockford, Bishop Loras ,T. Lane, has urged the Knights of Columbus of the diocese, as well as all women's organizations of the diocese affiliated with the Diocesan Council of Catholic Women, to make the Newman f o u n d a t i o n o f D e K a l b t h e i r personal project, encouraging them to assist in whatever way possible to make a realization of the Newman program. A new chapel will soon be constructed to provide • the Mass a n d t h e s a c r a m e n t s f o r t h e students, classrooms will be provided for the religious instruction of the students and a social center will later be added. Fr. McGinn concludedby leading all-in a prayer for the success of the Newman program. Officers for the coming year were announced. Awards were presented to Mrs. Wiser, the mother present with the largest number of living children, having twelve living children, and to Mrs. Strache, 86, the oldest mother present.

Mr. Pries operated the business until 1945, with the assistance of his capable wife, Wanda, and son, at which time the latter, William Pries, Jr., took over the store's operation. The senior Mr. Pries' recollections of his first winter in McHenry bring memories of one of the city's coldest winters in history. He remembers moving his belongings from Wauconda to McHenry in three bob sleds and a car. There was no pavement in the city at that time and he recalls a car getting stuck near the present theatre on Green street and being unable to move for more than a week.
