The accident took place on the old bridge at 7:30 o'clock Tuesday morning. State police say Miss Di Leonardo was travelling west on the bridge when she lost control, with her auto striking the bridge and then becoming wedged crosswise. A rail was broken, with an estimated $500 damage, and the car was a complete wreck David Coleman of McHenry was treated at McHenry hospital for minor injuries sustained in an accident at 3:05 o'clock Wednesday morning on Lincoln road, just east of McHenry. Details were not available, but city police said the car apparently left the road and crashed in the rear of a business establishment east of the old bridge. It was necessary to tow the auto to a garage. Five Injured Five persons were injured n a two-car crash which occurred just before 6 o'clock Saturday evening at the intersection of Crystal Lake avenue and Terra Cotta road. One of the drivers, Charles Sowers of 3305 Golf View road, McHenry, sustained head injuries and lacerations of the eye. Sheriff's deputies said Sowers told them the other car, driven by Stephen Broskovak, 18, of Crystal Lake had stopped for a sign, then pulled .into the path of his car. After the collision, the Broskovak car travelled into a ditch and struck a utility pole. Passengers in the latter vehicle were Donald Hinderlight, 16, of Crystal Lake, Edith Broederdorf, 17, of Algonquin, and Jerry Lagerman, 15, of Crystal Lake, all of whom sustained lacerations and bruises. The four were taken to Memorial hospital in Woodstock by ambulance. Both cars were damaged, the Broskovak machine the most seriously. Walter Kozicki of Clearview, McHenry, was blamed by state police for a collision which took place at 11:50 Saturday evening on Rt. 12, near Highway 120. Kozicki was driving south on Rt. 12 and a car driven by Hans Strickert of Chicago was north-bound, according to authorities, when Kozicki at- I tempted to make a left turn and collided with the other vehicle. William Sphehr of McHenry was blamed by police for a minor accident in which he drove out . of a parking lot and collided with a car driven on Rt. 120 by Albert S.

Mrs. Meyer said she was unable to see the approaching car as she entered the high- (Continued from Page 1) One is our recollection of two meetings attended recently where luncheons were prepared by the auxiliaries of veterans' groups. A member of the club meeting at one hall told of the outstanding job these women do in behalf of their organization. After tasting the food, we were in agreement that too often they go unrecognized; The others worthy of mention are patrol boys and girls in McHenry. While the weather has not yet proved a hardship. nevertheless, the job is many times thankless, but it provides an invaluable service in the promotion of safety. Our family includes some very loyal, but not too well informed, sports enthusiasts. At the height of the World Series play, we were surprised by a visit from relatives living in Minnesota. Since we had just finished a phone conversation with Chuck Hiller's grandmother when they walked into the newspaper office, we remarked that the entire community was pretty excited over having a local star in the competition. What we failed to mention was his name. Last week, just as the series was about to end, a card arrived in the mail from the same relatives, and it carried this message: "We're surely watching that Willie Mays with interest." Figures released this past week gave the attendance at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry as 3 per cent ahead of 1961 for the first nine months of this year. The disclosure came from the Museum's president, Lenox R. Lohr. Probably not too many people living in McHenry today remember when Mr. Lohr made his home about two miles south of McHenry, on Barreville road, near the entrance to Orchard Heights. Even then he was a prominent figure in the metropolitan area, and it was with pride that a small community welcomed him into its midst. K. A. F. OBITUARIES FRED SPRING MAN Funeral services for Fred Springman, 95, of 814 N. River road, McHenry, were held Monday evening at 7:30 o'clock from the George R. Justeri & Son funeral home, conducted by Rev. Carl A. Lobitz of Zloft Lutheran church. Burial was private. Mr. Springman, a native of Buffalo, N. Y., had resided with his nephew, Carl Springman, for the past nine months. In the East, he owned and operated a meat market. Mr. Springman was born ih Germany in 1867 and came to this country at the dge of 15. His wife, Ida, died ih 1953. He leaves only four nephews. Maurice Gladstone, at left, and Gene Adams, right, are shown with Honorable Shaul Ramati, consul of Israel in Chicago, at the Legion home in McHenry last Monday, when he spoke before the local Kiwanis club and guests. Mr. Ramati came to McHenry on the invitation of Mr. Gladstone, a club member. Mr. Adams is president of the Kiwanis club. The innumer able problems which confront Israel, and the long struggle to improve conditions there, were discussed by Honorable Shaul Ramati, consul of Israel in Chicago, when he spoke before members of the McHenry Kiwanis club and many guests last Monday noon at the Legion home. Mr. Ramati described at some length the suffering and death of thousands of Israeli citizens under Nazi domination, then proceeded to tell of the program for establishmehl of the Jewish state. Included was an explanation of some of the social reforms. He spoke of the desolate countryside and of efforts now„ being undertaken to restore the land to a productive state. Only an airplane view, Mr. Ramati said, points up the rigid lines dividing the vast majority of the land which is barren and the slowly increasing acreage that is improved each year. The lack of water is Israel's most serious problem, and there is nation-wide rationing year 'round. Mr. Ramati spoke of aid given Egypt, in the way of •arms, from Russia for the purpose of invading Israel, but expressed the gratefulness of his country for defense materials sold to them by the United States. All of his remarks centered on the efforts of small Israel to remain free in the midst of Red-dominated countries. Going on a wild goose chase is a poor way to feather your nest.

The dinner meeting will be a benefit for the Mental Health Center of McHenry County, and p^rt of a general effort to ralsfe fuhds for the expanding program of mental health services In this community. The Mental Health center was established under a grant from the state of Illinois and has been officially in operation since January, 1960. In the last two years it has helped hundreds of patients from all over the county, the majority of them between 6 ami 16 years of age. Fees are" very modest, and the center is urgently in need of increased contributions from individuals and groups of interested people who will underwrite a local mental health program. It is estimated that one out of every twelve American children born '%1ay will spend part of his life in a mental institution. Much of this needless tragedy and waste could be avoided with early diagnosis and treatment such as the Mental Health center provides. The staff of the Center includes Dr. David W.
