Ethel and Wally Faust, former owners of the Handy Pantry, are moving back to Wonder Lake. To those of you who don't know them, this probably sounds like just another move but to their friends, it's hilarious. This is the fifth time "The Honeymooners" (to quote Tom McMillan) have r moved back. Ethel and Wallv know I mean it when I say welcome home! Wooded Shores would like to welcome a distinguished new resident, Dr. Carl A. LeFevre, professor of English at the Chicago Teachers C o 11 e g e North.

Mrs. Fuhrer will have the next meeting in )t ember. pfirty given for a group of eighth graders. My role, was supposedly that of a chaperon. They needed chaperones like they needed another head. It was a lawn party, the girls sat on one side of the tennis court on benches, the boys sat on the other side in lounge chairs. Periodically the chaperones shouted "ladies choice" and a few brave souls danced. The dances we')*e strangely reminiscent' of the old maraihon dances. When the musii? stopped, t hoy .ran back to their chairs like fighters to their corners at the end of a round. In between dances the boys swung on a rope, the host kept an eye on his fi^h and the girls did the fodt stomp. Muss Hansen- firrally broke the ice, he shouted "Game Time" just like good old "'Pinky Lee" and succeeded in getting -them together in a circle. The chaperones finally got the idea they weren't needed and retired to the house and I have an idea .thinks picked up a little after we left, because they all said the party was great. Mr. and Mrs. Jack Alicoate, their daughter. Rosemary, and Mr and Mrs. Carl Reidenbach came up Sunday to open up their summer home."They have been summer residents of Wonder Lake for nineteen years.
