THEMcHENHr^,AINDEAXii -SPRRS5 .'^aagx- Tkureday, February 28. 1963 Large Cast In Rehearsal For March Benefit Show How Can 1 ? Florence Engdahl, as M;w» Peterson, domineering mother of Albert, played by Hon Burton, shown in rehearsal for the musieal comedy, "Bye Bye Birdie," to be given on the evenings of March 22 and 23 at 7:45 p.m. at the McHenry Junior high school, sponsored by the W.S.C.S. of the Community Methodist church. This two-act musical that, won many awards on Broadway is a perfect showcase for the talents of Ron Rurlon and Florence En-'dnhl, omy two of a cast of professionals, semiprofessionals and talented teenagers. Ron Curt on, co-starring with Ann Varese, was a professional entertainer with many years of show business experience. During these years ho was featured on the Arlene Francis TV show, and with his combo, the Ron Burton quintet, played the top supper rooms in the country. Ron is now a local business man, and his background as a vocal and piano stylist will be highlighted in this show. Florence Engdahl has studied dramatic arts and has had considerable "little theatre" experience in Oak Park. Ann Varese influenced her to return to the stage by casting her as Hilda, a Swedish maid, in a church Christmas play, "A Star For Hilda." Impressed with her natural dramatic flair, Ann then cast her as the Widow Paroo in her 1062 production of "Music Man." thereby affording her the opportunity of displaying an authentic Irish brogue. When "Bye Bye Birdie" was being cast, there was no other choice than ^Florence for the flamboyant "Mama" Peterson. This role was played by Joan Blondell in the Chicago company. Final casting announcement is the addition of Rita Wayland as Mrs. Merkle. Rita has had much "little theatre" background, most recently with the Crystal Lake Players, taking the starring role of Aunt Hetty in "The Girls in 509." Roy Kissling will play the role of Mr. Henkel, as well as assist backstage. Additional teenagers will be Jane Macdonald and Rodney Mauch. Tickets are available from members of the W.S.C.S., from local business places, and by calling the Community Methodist church for mail orders.

At present, the city of Washington*" and the District of Columbia are governed by throe commissioners appointed by the President of the United States. The funds for the district and for the programs administered by the commissioners are provided by acts of the Congress. This procedure has ben followed since 1870 and is predicated upon Article 1, Section 8, jof the Constitution which provides that "The Congress shall have power .... tc exercise exclusive legislation in and press it down firmly.

The Constitutional provision yields to the principle that the Congress "may" delegate its authority to a locally elected mayor and city council. Indeed, from the year 1802 until 1870, the city of Washington enjoyed almost complete "home rule" including the right during most pf this period to elect its owr. jpnyor and aljdermen. With the 23rd amendment tn the Constitution granting to Citizens of Washington, D. C\, the right to vote for President and Vice-President, many of these same voters wonder why they are deprived of the right to select their own local officials. The constitutional direction for congressional jurisdiction of the District Of Columbia suggests that the area where our nation's capitol is situated shall tyelong to all the citizens of the nation. Indeed, one may ask whether authority over this area should not rest with our Illinois citizens, as well as Willi all other citizens, through their representative in Congress. It is charged in some quarters that the opposition to "home rule" is based on "racial prejudice," as more than 50 per cent of Washington's population is reported to be non-white. The presence of this feeling among some opponents cannot be discounted. On the other hand, if this were the major obstacle, it would not take much ingenuity to devise a plan for "home rule" which would avoid domination by any one racial group of a city council. But there is more than that to the issue, and a thoughtful decision on the subject should lie made on the merits and without prejudice of any kind. The stake of our national government and of all our nation's people in the city of Washington, D. C., is great indeed. It is a stake which belongs to the nation as a whole. The Congress may find this responsibility burdensome--but it is an obligation which remains inherent in a government of the people, by the people and the people of the United "States of America.
