The committee headed by- Bill Walter, has boon mooting every Wednesday night in oritur to plan for the biggest affair ever held in the village. Should be a great success if only the weatherman will cooperate! In the event of rain, the festival will be held on Sunday. The public is cordially invited to attend. Evelyn Patzke Succumbs After Lingering Illness Death came to Mrs. Evelyn 'jRtzke on Thursday, July 16 around noon at the McHenry hospital. After being released the previous week, Mrs. Patzke was rushed back on Monday afternoon. A quiet and unassuming couple, they both endeared themselves to neighbors with their friendly ways. Mrs. Patzke was hospitalized about a year and a half ago, when she under- /Sfent surgery for the first time. .Her condition worsened steadily, until June of this year -when she returned to the hospital for more surgery. > Our deepest sympathy to fWalter during this time of his •bereavement. Hawaiian Luau All. the exotic beauty of iwaii with the exception of fiamond Head was reproduced ? in the garden of the Dewey •| Fricke home on Orchard Drive «i on Saturday night. The oci^ ca;sion was the "luau" given by j their daughter Lorraine. All ^guests were warned to come in ii proper dress, consequently the ?| gentlemen were attired in Bur- ** muda shorts and colorful sport $ shirts. The women were dress- •J in sarongs, "tea-timers", grass skirts, or their equiva- -I lent! ijj A fish pond complete with swimming fish was rigged up, and trimmed with greenery. ^ Artifical palm trees swayed ^ gracefully in the breeze. Tables || (knee high, of course) were set £ up and covered with beautiful ' floral arrangements. Cushions jjjj for sitting were available but H tailor's squat was the most $ comfortable position. No silverware was offered, so it was b stricly "fingers were made be- * fore forks!" Half watermelon shells were C scooped out and filled with a % delicious liquid beverage, while ® tiny orchids floated on top. Straws were provided for sip,- ping. Mrs. Ella Fricke and her daughter wore orchid leis from Hawaii, around their necks. All of the guests were presented with an orchid upon arrival and this was worn over the ear. The food was lavish and simply "out of this world." There were shrimps roast suckling pig, barbecued ribs, platters of steaming fried chicken, poi, Hawaiian potatoes, and Hawaiian bread. Most of the guests were from the Rogers Park area of Chicago with the exception of local folks, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Nelson apd the Levesques. The othei's included Karl Blom, Art Laede, Mr. and Mrs. A1 Daker, Kimball Atkinson and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Pinatel, Mr. and Mrs. George Van Nevel, Mr. and Mrs. John Kay and daughterin- law, Marion. Her husband was in the hospital and unable 1o attend. Also present were Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Michaelson, Harry Christiansen and his wife, Mrs. Slewitzke and daughter Peg, Paul Fields and friend Lois, and last but not least, John Crawley. 'Twas a night to remember and the Frickes are to be commended for their ingenuity! Now Where Are They? We mean the McCullom Lake softball team as far as league standings are concerned! Your reporter erroneously reported that they were in first. They were tied with Bimbo's for first place as the result of the ruling on a disputed game. Unhappy we are to relate they lost a tough one with Hettermann's last Tuesday night by a score of 12-11. They couldn't come up with the last two runs to win. Here's hoping the story is different tonight (Thursday) when they take on Han's Tavern for the late game at the V.F.W. field. As near as we can figure, our boys are tied for second place. That story could change and we'll have them on top, again! Why not plan to attend? It's plenty exciting!! Wanted--More Chaperones! Our young folks are being let down by the parents who are not taking turns acting in the capacity of chaperones for their dances on Saturday night. The teensters are conducting themselves in fire fashion and it seems a shame that moms and pops can't give them at least one night! Please volunteer for a convenient Saturday night by calling Sandy Passalaqua at 3477 or Barbara Lorch --3462. Can they count on YOU? Horace Greeley's Idea Was well taken by Mrs. Nada Costa when she decided to follow his advice and "go west". She left by plane for Denver. Colorado on the 4th of July and returned on the 13th. Nada was met by friends. Dr. and Mrs. John Lazarov and she was their house guest during her sojourn. Some of the stops on her impressive itinerary included a trip to Buffalo Bill's Grave, Central City (ghost town) where she watched a Western opera where one of her friend's daughters was a dancer, threw snow balls on * < ' > SMART-FINEST QUALITY SUN GLASSES Men who want the best wear the aristocrat of sun glasses -- the new Ray-Ban "Signet" by Bausch & Lomb.

Most inspiring was a trip through the Air Force College in Boulder, Colorado. Nada's trip was "just what the doctor ordered" and the hospitality accorded her, made her feel so welcome. Happy we are that you had a good time. Naida, but it is nice to see you home again. Mrs. Costa is the teen age consultant and is doing a wonderful job!! the Greenwood Giants, also at the beach. Tuesday, July 28, the Cubs and Braves are scheduled--again at our own beach. Sincere Welcome To newcomers, Jean and Ed Whitney of 505 Orchard Drive, the first cottage west of Lennerts. They have taken up residence with their three children and a new one due soon, and we wish them every good thing. He Made The Column Milton Lawrence, together with his wife, Lucy, and two daughters, Penny .and Debbie, enjoyed a delightful break in the old routine, by spending some time here in the village. The family visited with Milt's sister and family. Dorie and Bill Brennan. They exercised plenty by playing horseshoes. Milt is a faithful reader of the column but wearied of never seeing his name in print! Village Board The trustees and president met on Monday, July 13 in the beachhouse for a regularly scheduled meeting. The usual business was conducted and the next meeting will be held on Monday, J,uly 27 at 8 p.m. The public is invited. Just In Time Very fortunate that Betty Murray was able to make the trip to Washington when she did. Shortly after their return, she received word that her step-mother, Mrs. Mabel Koljer, had suffered a heart attack and passed away very suddenly. Ciirl Campers Miss Lynne Schultz returned home on Saturday after spending a glorious week at the Lutheran church camp -- Camp Alpine, located near Richmond. The advantages of this camping expedition in a spiritual, physical, and moral sense cannot be duplicated. It was a wonderful experience for the young lady. Girl Scout day campers included Nancy Morris, Charlene Reid, and Nancy Burg for a week of fun under the sun. A four mile hike one day was almost their undoing, but they recuperated. Little League From an advance report we understand the new uniforms are simple spectacular! The young lads should attract quite a crowd now. Have you seen these fellows play ball? The schedule for this week is as follows: Our Braves will take on the Wonder Lake Indians tonight (Thursday) at the beach at 7 p.m. On Monday, July 27 the Braves will oppose "Cool Pool" Party It was a soaking wet time for the gals when they met at the home of Linda Passalaqua to celebrate hertwelfth birthday. Present were the misses Diane and Berenice Bjork, Dale Blodgett, Qiryssie Levesque, Gerry Fidler, Karen Smith, Janet Sturm, and sister Sandy. After the water games, the young ladies feasted on the goodies turned out bymother Anne on the new outdo^ rj grill. mom and pop from Ellinwood, Georgia. They didn't know they were on the way. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Thacker are planning to leave the village today or tomorrow, to avoid the heavy weekend traffic. ~ That covers the news from this end for another week. Don't forget to attend the on Saturday, July 25. See you there?

Delightful Surprise Barbara and Chuck Thacker were thrilled last Thursday, when a familiar car entered their driveway. It was Chuck's STORK WINS RACE WITH LOCAL MOTHER A Lakeland Park couple, who last week were Ynxiously awaiting arrival of their second child, are jubilant with their j prize even though theylcame in second in a race with tne stork. ! At 2:30 p.m.. July II ! thy Haymes. wife of jmade a hurried call'to stetrician at McHenry tal to report new developments. As a result of the call, she en- , listed the aid of a neighbor woman to drive her to the hospital. Husband, Robert, was at work. The mother-to-be and her driver -- as it was later disclosed raced the stork east on , Route 120 to the hospital. The siork had gained amazingly j fast. Within 30 minutes the :Ha\mes family also included j Laura' Ann all 6 lbs., 14 oz. of j her. I Because there is no maternity department at McHenry hospital as yet, Mrs. Haymes and Laura were transferred to Woodstock hospital. This is the third baby born at McHen- ; ry hospital. Robin, age one. gurgles gleefully when shown his new sister. The Haymes family resides at 200 Sunset Drive, , Lakeland Park, just west of : McHenry. Traffic safety is everbody's job and includes your own highway safety . . . Slow down and live. THE TEMPER TOLL Speed is the greatest single contributing factor to fatal traffic accidents in Illinois. It contributed to ov^r 400 deaths in this state last year. Many of these deaths might have been avoided if the drivers involved had only repressed an urge to unleash the tremendous power under the hoods of today's cars. Everyone who drives is a potential speeder. But speeding doesn't always stem from just a sheer desire for speed. We sometimes drive too fast because we are emotionally upset. No matter how composed we may be normally, all of us are capable of losing our tempers at one time or another. And a flare of temper, no matter how slight, makes us vulnerable to that dangerous desire for a surge of speed. Congested and slow-moving traffic, for example, might tax a driver's temper to the breaking point and cause him to speed around other cars or pass on hills or curves--chances he wouldn't take under ordinary circumstances. But allowing temper to gain the upper hand is especially dangerous in traffic. Safety authorities believe literally hundreds of highway disasters are traceable to uncontrolled temper, which, in a reckless, fleeting moment, banishes normal driving precautions. So when your temper ap.i proaches the breaking point and you feel that urge to abandon normal safe driving practices, pull off to the s>:ie of the road for a while, or let someone else do the driving.
