She is suffering from puts and bruises and broken ribs. Mr. Ferreri's uncle, Lawrence Ferreri, of Waukegan is also in the hospital in serious condition with possible internal injuries. The Ferreris' son, Kenneth, received severe bruises but was not confined to the hospital/' Halloween Parties Gail Young was hostess at a Halloween party on Saturday, Oct. 29. Twenty-three young people enjoyed the evening with a scavenger hunt which was a new experience for most of th<»m. The list of things required on the hunt included a hard boiled egg, cigar butt, a telephone, man's garter and a glass ftraw. There was also dancing and refreshments of pizza, hot chocolate and punch. There are still some items of the hunt left at the Young's home and Mrs. Young asks you to phone her at EVergreen 5- 4672 to claim anything of yours that has not been returned. The local Girl Scout Troop had its Halloween party on Nov. 1. The girls wore costumes and told a spook story as an introduction to the party where they played the traditional Halloween games. Hot dogs and cider were served and Patty Matt of Villa Vaupell supplied apple crisps for dessert. The Brownies also had a costume party to. celebrate Halloween. They played all the Halloween games and voted ducking for apples the most fun. Leona Estis, Earline Mettelke and Vi Abbink assisted Marge Potratz, Shirley Haufe and Mickey Walters as hostess to the girls. News A "P9Tty with a punch" was the n^me of the Methodist Youth Fellowship meeting held last week. Forty-eight members were present to see the movie, "A Man Called Peter", which was the most impressive I have seen. During intermission, w e learned results of the Council meeting and also had refreshments. At that time events for the future were (decided. On Nov. 10 the M.Y.F. will sponsor a dance called "Turkey in the Straw Trot" which will be held at the Legion home from 7:30 to J1 p.m. On Nov. 13 there will be a leaf raking party, sub-heading "Citizenship in Action". On Nov. 20 will be the trip to Marcey Center and Chinatown. A bus will leave the church at 11:45 to take us to Chinatown, where we will attend a Chinese Christian chMrch service and eat dinner in Chinatown. On Nov. 27, Rev. Laxamana, a Philippine, will speak to us on "Integratipn from his Point of View". Dec 4. Miss Maurie Taylor will speak on "Dating". Because November is devoted to citizenship, we tried to plan our meetings with that in mind. Remember, citizenship is not something remembered only in a certain month or election year. It is a full time jab. Sunday's meeting was devoted to Mr. Duker's talk on integration. Mr. Duker has the unique eT^perierrce of teaching in a Catholic college for Negroes. Mr. Duker talked on the differences in the level of education between a colored person and a white. He stated that the colored children didn't UNDER 21 A column for teen-agers By Dan Halligan DEAR TEEN-AGERS: As far as I'm concerned, Christmas. of the past few years has emphasized too much commercialism and not enough Christ. Too many people today literally knock themselves out giving cards and presents to friends and relatives, not because they especially want to but because they feel it's expected of them. Here's your chance to perhaps start a new trend in your community by seeing to it that presents are given to others but in a manner far removed from commercialism. "Santa Anonymous" sees to it that needy children who still believe in Santa Claus aren't disappointed on Christmas morning. However, the project needs complete cooperation of your community, your newspaper and your particular' group or club. ~ 'Some years ago while living in a community of 10,000 population, I attempted this project and merely by writing several news stories in the few weeks prior to Christmas, plus obtaining^ names t>f needy children, I saw the community respond to^such an extent that 150 needy children received at least one new Christmas present on Christmas morning. The following year more than 350 children. awoke on Christmas morning to find they hadn't forgotten and "Santa Anonymous" is now an annual project in that city. You've certainly got the needy children in your community, so the first step is to contact your local newspaper and obtain its cooperation I'm sure you'll get it. Cooperation in this instance will mean publishing several "Santa Anonymous" stories to arouse public interest and to keep the public informed as to the progress of the project, both from the standpoint of contributions of money and names. By the way, if your newspaper would rather have your group write these progress stories and you feel you're not quite able to get the message across, let me know and your stories will be written for you. You can obtain the names of needy children in your community by contacting your local welfare office, veterans' organizations and other clubs. The names of many needy children also can be submitted by friends, neighbors, relatives and parents of these children to your local newspaper or to whomever you designate.. "Santa Anonymous" comes into the picture in the form of the generous public. The anonymity is preserved throughout because the public' doesn't know what children benefit from FEATHER PARTY Beatnick Party On Oct. 22 the Charles Heise residence took on all the aspects of a coffee house. The occasion was a Halloween meeting of the "Dizzy Dozen", a couples club. Eight couples attended in the "way-out" aitire of Beatnicks. New Neighbors Floyd and Virginia Hedgepath moved inta their, new home on Sunset Drive on Nov. 1. The newest member of the family, Phillip, was born i on Oct. 29, just in time to move into the new house. The Hedgepaths have three other children, Floyd, 4, David, 3, and Debbie, 2. Mr. Hedgepath works as a hand fabricating engineer and enjoys bowling and fishing in his spare time. LUMBER PRICES Are DOWN We Follow the West Coast Market at SPRING GROVE LUMBER CO.

He also stressed that there was no difference in their manner or way than ours. He felt that from his own experience the colored people would finally be accepted but that it would take many years. He concluded that we as good citizens should be aware of this problem and 4ry to understand it and from this eventually there will come a solution in which all races in this country will become united.

In cases of the presents already being purchased, the toys, games or dolls should be gift wrapped. Somewhere on the wrapping or attached to it the donor should specify game, toy or doll, the age group the present is intended for and whether the gift is for a boy or a girl. You'll firtd that many of your presents will be purchased by old maids, crusty old- bachelors, young parents whose children aren't in need, grandparents whose children have long since grown up and people in all other walks of life. You'llalso find fortunate children will buy presents for the less fortunate. Important to remember is that no gift should cost more than $1 arid only toys, games or dolls should be bought. All presents should be in the homes of these needy children no later than Christmas Eve. Your parents can help by perhaps serving as chauffeurs for the delivery trips. The secret of the success of "Santa Anonymous" is to keep the public informed of its progress by news stories. If you do this, you'll be pleasantly surprised at the happiness your group can bring to many unknown children on. Christmas morning. Go to it.
