i-3. Thiiraciay. January 9, 1S64 : r / \ Invite Youth To Problem To Be c>' _ Youth of Wonder Lake and surrounding area are urged to intend ih^next Harrison PTA iru-clirif*, rather than their parents, particularly students at school levels. Parents find educators in the orea are invited, of course, since Ihey should provide , the ^•motivajing force to counteract Mhe stark facts of the school drop-out problem that will be presented by Robert W. Bird of Wonder Lake. Mrs. James L. Bixoy, program chairman, said the meeting will open at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 14, at Harrison school, and called for a large attendance to hear the issues behind this vital problem. Bird is secretary and assistant-! o-the-.prosi<lent of Oliver Corp.; Chicago, farm und industrial machinery manufacturer. He specializes in labor, relations and government af: fairs He often is called upon to testify before governmental agencies in Washington and elsewhere. He was graduated from the University of Wisconsin law schcol, and was a director of the Army's criminal investigations division in the .Mediterranean theater. He holds a bronze star, the Order of St. George art*! the Crown of Italy. \\ He is immediate past-chairman of the lal<M)ir relations committee, Illinois State Chamber of Commerce, is a member of a similar committee of the U.S. Ch;jnjbe.r, ,and belongs to many ^/Itusiness groups. States Advantage Bird's program, presented throughout the country, dwells on advantages to youth of obtaining the best possible education certainly including completion of high school and preferahly some formal training beyond, either college or vocational courses. Bird will point out economic values--the price tags that are attached to education in terms of jobs and incomes as well as obstacles that face youth who cut short, their schooling. These price tags not only involve individual toss of income, but also eoKj_jeornmunities in terms of welfare, for the hard fact remains that the school drop-out is the most likely to become the future unemployable. The program will urge parents to take all possible steps-- as the best "insurance" they can give their youngsters -to encourage and provide for higher educational opportunities, and for youngsters to seize upon these opportunities for their own self-interest. The program will include a survey of industries and service businesses that offer the most opportunity, rated by educational attainment, and those /7 that are declining in job and income potential. The nation's average of school drop-outs exceeds 25 per cent at high school level. The next conclusion, Bird said, will be that more education means better jobs, better pay, and conversely less unemployment and lower welfare costs in this national effort to Hear Drop-Out By PTA reduce the hard core of unemploytfbles. Bird and his family have lived at Wonder Lake for eight years. His wife, Heda, is a substitute teacher. They have been active in several community functions, including the Wooded -Shores Property Owners association? Barnard Mill Community Center, and the Boy Scouts at Wonder , LaHe. BURTON'S BRIDGE SCHOOL TO HOST COUNTY COUNCIL The regular meeting of the McIIenry County Council of P.T.A. is scheduled to be held on Jan. 16 at 8 p.m. at the Burton's Bridge school, which is located on Route 176, east of Rt. 31. The local p.T.A. of that school will serve the refreshments and generally put on a display of the fine hospitality possessed by all the local units. The program for the evening promises to be a very informative one, according to the program chairman, Mrs. John Boehm of $fcqHenry. Judge James Copney of Woodstock will head a panel of experts, consisting of Eugene Maxwell^ principal of the Woodstock high school; Bert Boerner, juvenile officer for McHenry county; and Miss Myrtle Proctor, eighth grade teacher at the McHenry Junior high school. The subject the panel will discuss will be problems of youngsters which eventually load to delinquency, and how they can be helped before reaching this stage. The discussions will be short, since the panelists feel a question and answer period can prove more beneficial to all the parents and educators who will be present. This meeting and program is open to all interested people and to all members of any P.T.A. group in the county of McHenry. Stanley Blumberg, president of the council, hopes to keep the business meeting very short, so that more time can be given to this very important topic.
