Thursday, March 1, 1982 THE McHENRY PL AINDE ALER I®age Seventeen McHenry Shores SHORES CLUB MEETS MARCH 1 AT VFW HALL Patt Petersen - EV. 5-5425 The McHenry Shores Club ^ meeting will be held tonight at ^ 8 in the V.F.W. hall in McHenry. Don't forget, the meetings are shorter and the entertainment more varied. Tonight •we will be satiating the desires of the card-playing crowd. Bridge, pinochle, rummy, hearts, whatever you like. Come and support your club and find out what's going on in your community. There will #be refreshments provided after the meeting. "If* So Nice to Have a Man Around the Hons?" Clarence Mueller, busy father of four, also participates actively in our community. We now know'.-him as one of the directors in the M.S.C. He started being so active in 1959 when he became the chairman of the nominating committee for the McHenry Shores club and also the secretary for the Shores Athletic club. In 1960 he was the chairman of the publicity committee for the M.S.C. and in 1961 he was elected to the office of trustee (now changed to director) and will hold this office until 1963. In 1961 he was also given the honor of being the president of the S.A.C. club. "Clare", his wife. Irene, and their four children, Phyliss Mueller Both, Gerald, Patricia and Robert, moved to the Shores in June of 1958. Phyliss is married and not living at home, but when she comes to visit, Clare has five lovely grandchildren to play with and you can bet these visits are long-awaited. Their son, Gerald, is also away from home. He's been in the Navy since 1959 and the Muellers are looking forward to a leave sometime in April. Clare attended Lane Tech. high school and Ray ^ogue (where he took up commercial photography. He is now a production manager for the American Meat Institute and is in the department of public information. His big job every year is when convention time rolls around and he manages all the exhibits and rooming for 7,000 people who attend the National Meat Packers' convention. This is the third year he's been appointed to be coordinator for the National Youth Power Congress which will meet in Chicago this month. His work with young people he finds very challenging. Clare Mueller is a good man to have around the house. He likes to "fix things" and has his own home workshop. He even likes to cook, once in a while. Irene fondly remembers the Thanksgiving she was ill and-unable to fix the traditional meal and Clare rolled up the shirtsleeves and dove x^ight in. He really made the turkey and all the trimmin's. He loves gardening and has his special roses and takes to painting once in a while. Clare is also quite the sportsman, too, with golfing as a real favorite. He loves baseball and is quite the card player, going as far as playing pinochle with some friends on the train, "Neither Rain Nor Snow --" McHenry Shores residents have stationed themselves in front of their fireplaces and have refused to budge. Things have been pretty quiet around here all week and the news is almost nil. A few, however, did brave the wintry- winds. It was cozy and warm in the Hogan house the twenty-first. Leah and her neighbors enjoyed a nice afternoon of bridge and coffee Matching. Ignoring the wintry blasts outside were Stewart and Nell Rode, Laurie B u r g s t a 11 e r, ^Marge Hicks, Irene Middlekauff and Mrs. Julia Ruprecht, Leah's mother.. Four more of our lovely ladies were -out on an equally blustery day last Feb. 15 y^hen they attended the McHenry Women's club monthly meeting. Helen,Smith and Irene Middlekauff were on the serving committee, Mildred Snively was in charge of decorating the tables and did them In a very pretty Valentine motif. Louise Winters, secretary of the group, was also there. while commuting to work every morning. That's, the best way we've heard of yet to beat the monotony of train riding day in and day out. Snowbound This weather seems to have c a u s e d e v e r y o n e t o m a k e changes in their plans. Trent a n d I r e n e M i d d l e k a u f f w e r e planning on a nice visit with their three gran dchildren, Linn, Leslie and Cris. At the end of the day, when the junior Middlekauffs started to come after their children they found the roads impassable. The youngsters visited with their grandparents for three days before Trent, Jr., and Bar- ^bfira were able to come and take them home to Wheeling. We suspect Trent and Irene rather enjoyed the prolonged visit. i It Pays to Study Ed Valek and John Komer both received letters from the principal acknowledging theif achievement at making the B honor roll in school. John has also received a acceptance from Ripon colleg in Wisconsin. He is going on a $1,000 scholarship which was awarded him by the Kemper Insurance Foundation. Very nice work, boys. Sick List The flu bug, cold bug, virus bug and what-bave-you are really getting around these days. We hear that Ronny Verstege, Leona Wagner and the Vilim. Egger, Mueller and Hastings families all have one or the other. We hope that by the time this issue is out the afore-mentioned have recuperated sufficiently. Our Neighbors Alice Brunke entertained some of the members of her family the seventeenth. Alice's mother. Mrs. Helen Kotlarski, and her sister. Delores Long, and her three children, Clifford. Bobby and Cathy. They spent the day visiting and having a belated celebration of Alice's and Delores's birthdays. Belated birthday gre e t i n g s, girls. The Fluger family, who have recently moved into the Schmitt home were welcomed into the neighborhood Tby Alice and Art Brunke last week. Louise Winters flew to New York last week to visit her husband who is stationed up there and also to see her grandmother and to help her celebrate her birthday. The Winters enjoyed the sights and took in a Broadway shOw and a couple of movies. £astWood Manor EMPOA PLANS ROLLER SKATING PARTY MARCH 15 Edie Iverson - S85-6S38 Happy Birthday to YOB Happy birthday today to Ronny Verstege.
