Scout Master Joe Prazak and committeeman Frank Ficek taking seventeen boys on a hike to McHenry dam. They were met there by assistant scoutmaster, Irv Becker, and scoutmaster, Ed Druml. They had brought out wood necessary for the fires on which many of the Scouts passed their requirements for second class cooking. These four men also passed Scouts in stalking, tracking, firebuilding, hiking and compass reading. Understand the food smelled and tasted delicious and all the boys enjoyed a wonderful day. They were driven home by Ev Ficek, Aggie Prazak, Irv Becker and Kay and Ed Druml, marking your calendar now for that day so you can be at the camp-fire. There is to be another family picnic on the Sunday at noon for the parents and Scouts. Our troop had the largest parent participation at last fall's camporee. Hope we double that amount for spring. Archery Taught To Scout Troop All those bows and arrows you've been seeing are not the figments of your imagination but a group of aspiring young William Tells. Ray Plucinski of the Illinois Bowmen Association began giving archery lessons to our Boy Scouts on Wednesday of last week and has volunteered each Wednesday afternoon from 5 to 6 p.m. behind the community house. He is a wonderful instructor our scoutmaster reports and the boys are all enthused about these lessons. Mr. Plucinski was assisted by Virg Adams, also of the Bowmen Association. These two pros know how- much the leaders and scouts appreciate their lessons by the attendance of twentythree Scouts for their first lesson. These lessons are for only registered Boy Scouts of Troop 459. Scoutmaster, Ed. Druml .and Assistant Scoutmaster, Joe Prazak, . are also in attendance. Spring Camporee The Boy Scouts spring camporee is due on May 17, 18 and 19. This is the Kishwaukee District Camporee. All boys planning on attending must have their registration fee in on this coming week's meeting night. Parents, please co-operate and give your son his needed fee. It covers his meals on Saturday and Sunday breakfast, plus his camporee patch and it must be turned in so that our troop has an accurate amount of food and patches. They can not take a boy along who turns in hi§ fee as a few have done before, on the day they leave, as all this food is being bought for all troops participating by the district. The leaders also follow orders so please, help them by turning in your son's fee if he plans on attending. Our dance team is to dance their first outdoor performance on Saturday evening at the bonfire. Hear they will have their war dance ready and also several solo numbers. How about all you parents Troop 4S9 Rummage Sale The troop's first attempt at running a rummage sale was a big success according to the report given to your writer by the leaders. We know how the leaders feel about the large crowds that attended to make this affair such a success, words cannot tell the people from all around our subdivision and from all our neighboring ones, what a good feeling it was to see people waiting for us to open and then to purchase all the things and to return again and to bring friends and neighbors. If they can put themselves in the place of our leaders who worked hard and long to make needed funds for the Scouts then they know how the leaders feel This affair was first and foremost the success it was because all of you gave the rummage and then for purchasing all you did, but also to a group of very hard working leaders, committee men and to those wonderful women without whom the men would have been lost We can not list all of you wonderful women, but to you all goes large amounts of the men and scouts deep appreciation. The troop hopes to run another Sale next year and we hope you won't forget them if you come across anything for them they will be glad to accept it any time. They also hope you will plan on attending next year. Private David Druml Hope you all noticed the picture of Marine corps, Private David Druml in last weeks Plaindealer. He looks so good that when Dave's dad Ed saw the picture he returned and purchased extra copies so he could mail out a few. Dave is expected home soon on furlough. Clothes Racks Joe DeMarco and Ralph Ossler answered the plea for strong racks for clothes to hang on for the Scouts rummage sale and made the wonderfully strong clothes rack that is now in use at the community house. Round Table Scoutmaster, assistant scoutmasters, committeemen, cubmaster, den mothers and any interested parents of Cub and Boy Scouts remember next round table is to be held in Woodstock on May 9. Will you be there? Pony Leaguers Scoutmaster Ed Druml wish es us to tell all you parents of boys who are Scouts and belong to Pony League in McHenry that he has the word of President Lou Swedo of the League that it will not be held against any Scout who will miss Pony League because of the Scouts planned hike. Matter of fact Lou wishes he was able to attend. Please! Let's Slow Down As the buds break out on the trees, grass is turning green and flowers are poking their way through wonderful mother earth, so are our children breaking into the outdoors in droves. Can't you, won't you, give them a chance to grow and bloom, don't wait till there's an accident, take your heavy foot off the gas pedal of your cars., Slow down! Ask your visitors and people who service you to do likewise. Little League Tryouts At our recent Little League tryouts we were told all the young Mickey Mantles were at their best. Last night the managers had their chance to pick their new boys to fill out the teams. All new boys will be notified by the managers as to which team they will be playing on. Practice should be getting underway soon and we're all looking forward to the beginning of the season. Get-Well Wishes Heard Mrs. Laurie Mrotz underwent surgery recently at McHenry hospital. She's been improving nicely and has just returned home.-She's the wife of our Scout troop's committee chairman ahd just the day before she was rushed to the hospital she had made barbecues for all the men, women and scouts working on the rummage sale pick-ups. Also hope that Mr. and Mrs. Frank Schaaf of Sunset Drive have been released from McHenry hospital where they were confined as the result of the auto accident on Rt. 31 on Easter Sunday.

While over at the Daurio home it's baby bunnies who are just as cute and lovable as they can be but Mary all but had a heart attack when she „ arrived home and found them all white and licking one another.
