SQUARE DANCfe BENEFITS NURSE SCHOLARSHIP FUND This Saturday evening, May 25, McHenry County Voiture 51f8 of the 40 and 8 will sponsor an old fashioned square dance at the Crystal Lake American Legion home at 8 p.m. It is the hope of Chef De Gare H. J. Saynor, Sr., that enough revenue will be obtained so that an additional nurse scholarship can be awarded to a deserving resident of McHenry county, in addition to the scholarships already pledged for this year. Voiture 578 of McHenry county was recently commended as having the greatest nurse scholarship program in the state organization of the 40 and 8, this being done with the smallest membership. To date, the scholarship score is twenty-one graduate nurses, four in training and two to graduate this year. At this moment it is too early to report on the number of nurses that will be sponsored this year by the Voiture. The outcome of the dance Saturday night will have a bearing.
