Volley Ball is Fun Ask anj member of the Shores Social and Athletic club how to spend an enjoyable evening and the answer will be "Bring your wife along for an evening of volley ball." It was fun galore for the following couples, who with friends from nearby Oak hurst, took over the gym at McHenry high school on a recent Friday evening to give it a try. Mr. and Mrs. S a n d y A n d e r s o n , A r t and Marie* Cicchini, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hannemann, the Hattans, Ed end Jerry Olbinskl, Ray and Marge Olszewski and Chuck and Audrey Whitney. After several games of mixed couples, the wives decided that it would be fun to show the hubbies how the game should be played. After a very fast game, they almost did, as the score was Wives 10, Hubbies 11. The only casualty of the evening was the outcome of a collision between Audrey and Chuck. Both of them went for the same ball and the net result was one point for the opponents as Audrey had her breath knocked out. The athletic event was followed by a social gathering at the Olbinski home.

COAL PRODUCTION HIGH The average tons, produced per manshift in underground Illinois coal mines, in 1959 was about 50 percent higher than in Kentucky and West Virginia," and almost twice that of Pennsylvania, according to Dr. Hubert E. Risser, mineral economist for the Illinois State Geological Survey. Technological advances promoting the upgrading of Illinois coals, their blending for use in coke ovens and economic factors placing the state in a favorable price position have been largely responsible for the increased use of Illinois coking coal in the past. Inr the future, Dr. Risser predicted, the declining reserves and availability of other major coking coals now in use will be another factor strengthening the position of Illinois coal.
