pags Eiglif THE McHSHRY PLAXNDEALER mursday, June 23# mm Visit City The Park Ridge Cavaliers drum and bugle corps will be among top notch organizations participating in the annual Fiesta Day parade and Drum Corps Magic in McHenry on Sunday, July 19. The Cavaliers will be remembered for their superb performance in past events in the city. They are state and national champions. Musin' & Meanderin' (Continued from Page 1) courses to qualify youngsters for new kinds of jobs. Communities are approaching the problem in a number of ways. A summer project started in Past St. Louis in the spring of 1963 is now a permanent program supervised by a casewprker of the Department of R)t)lic Aid. The program utilizes the services of volunteer college students as tutors and includes among those enrolled, children of public aid families. In San Francisco, a plan has heen devised to allow potential 0r<>P-outs to work four hours a clfly and to attend school another four. They are paid $1.27 per hour, a wage not considered "family income". In one Pennsylvania county §11. anti-drop-out school for Children of low income families Jias been instituted, designed to give children a perspective they miss at home. McHenry high, with a rapidly increasing school enrollment, lost about eighty, including both transfers to other cities and drop-outs, last year. When one considers the enrollment of oygr 1,300, this figure would not seem to be unusually high in view of the fact that only a part of the eighty are dropouts. WONDER LAKE GIRL SEEKS DAIRY TITLE (Continued from Page 1) three founders of the Dairy Promotion council and well known here. Four times McHenry county has been honored with state princesses. Two were from this area, Mrs. Maryann Granger Huemann in 1958 and Miss Patricia Hogan of Ringwood in 1961-62.

Henry Edgerton, secretarytreasurer of the council, will serve as master of ceremonies at the dinner, which will be held at the Harvard Methodist church at 7:30 p.m. HEARINGS INTO ALLEGED COUNTY GAMBLING END (Continued from Papo 1) TWO ACCIDENTS OCCUR DURING MONDAY STORM McHenry has had a number of enterprising youngsters over a period of years. They are the boys and girls who refuse to fall in line with their friends' arguments that "you just can't earn a dime". Last Thursday we were visiting with 12-year-old Donald Hachmeister, who a couple of years ago decided to set up a Jamonade stand near the fourth green of the local golf course. Donny assures us that quality pays dividends, his proof lying in the fact that others have tried the same thing but haven't been as successful because the beverage was not homemade but the store variety of cold drink. There were many fine comments on last Friday evening's first band concert of the season. Even continuous thunder failed to detract but slightly from the very musical tones that emanated from the beautiful new band shell. Our park is something of which everyone may well be proud, and these excellent musicians are a credit to their new "home." K. A. F. ALLOW PETITION FOR PROBATION ON CHARGE OF THEFT William Goodale of Fox Lake was granted a leave to file a petition for probation when he appeared in the court of Judge James Cooney last Thursday and pleaded guilty to theft. Goodale was apprehended the previous week on a traffic violation, when Bensenville authorities found a stolen boat motor in his car. Investigation traced the motor to McHenry county, where thn numbers corresponded with a motor stolen earlier that day from George Kraymer of Bay road. Goodale was held in .fail on failure to post $2,500 bond. At least two accidents occurred during the severe storm early Monday evening, but no injuries were reported. One took place on Rt. 31, four miles south of Richmond, at 6:05 p.m., involving two cars. Robert Reynolds of Shady drive, Wonder Lake, told sheriff's police he was driving south on the highway and started to pass the second car, driven by Harvey Jones, Jr., of Barnard Mill road, when the latter turned into a driveway without giving a signal. Jones said he indicated his turn by an arm signal. Passengers in the second car were Darlene Jones and three children, Carlson Jones, 1, David, 6, and Russell, 4. The second accident occurred at 4:50 o'clock at the intersection of Rt. 120 and Meadow Lane, Lakeland Park. Helen Strandquist of Lake land Park was driving west on the highway and as she turned into Meadow Lane her car was struck in the rear by another vehicle driven by Francis Sweeney of W. Home drive, McHenry. The latter was unable to bring his car under control in the heavy rain. Passengers in the Strandquist car were Lawrence Strandquist, Margaret Oakland and Celia Oakland. None was injured. Another accident occurred early last Saturday evening when autos driven by Marie Bendl of Wonder Lake and George Kohout of Villa Park collided on Barnard Mill road. The first driver and her passenger, Peter *J. Bendl, were injured. The crash t< ck place as the Bend! car, travelling east, was sideswiped by Kohout, who was blamed for the accident. Miliam Rothenberger of Crystal Lake failed to negotiate | a curve as she drove on Barrcj ville road, a mile north of Rt. 1 176, at 1 a.m. Tuesday mornj ing and her car crashed. She suffered no injuries. nocky, Fox River Grove businessman, Executive Director Charles Siragusa of the Crime Commission asked if it was true that four of his business establishments had burned since 1939. Cernocky declined to answer. Among those to testify Tuesday was Melvin Ehler, secretary- manager of a Moose lodge in the county, who had other business connections in the past. He said his family had been threatened when a corporation reported to have been the property of the Amato family made an effort to assure that their machines were used in his establishment. Ehler said he refused. Wire Tapping John Wienke of Woodstock, who was described as a special type deputy, during the years Melvin Griebel was sheriff and Edward Dowd was chief deputy, described his own involvement in wire tapping in which he attempted to gain knowledge of' the activities of Tom Gokey of Woodstock, who was one of the men refusing to give testimony Monday afternoon. It was revealed that Deputy Dowd had no knowledge of his action,, and when it became known, Wienke was asked to stop. The information was found to be inconclusive, and because of the manner in which obtained, could not be used as evidence. * In Monday testimony, Capt. Harold Crockett, commander of State Police District 2, which includes McHenry, Lake, Kane, DuPage and a portion of. Cook counties, told the commission of his activities within the county and gave his opinion that there was organized gambling in McHenry county, as well as in other counties in his district. He classified the gambling in McHenry, Lake and Kane as about equal, adding that it was more widespread in this area than in the other counties. WONDER LAKE MAN CAUGHT IN ROAD BLOCK (Continued From Page 1) early this week, only one of which resulted in a major loss. At Mark's Marine, Inc., 3620 W. Elm street, burglars gained entrance sometime between 7 o'clock Sunday evening and the following morning, when the entry was discovered about 8 o'clock. Ray Looze, a brother of a co-owner of the business, arrived from California and stopped to see his brother, Don. He found the door open and was surprised to find no one in the store. Upon the arrival of Don Looze a few minutes later, he was informed of the open door, and an investigation revealed considerable money and a check missing from a cash register and petty cash box. Betty O'Brien, bookkeeper, said the missing cash totalled $406 and the check was in the amount of $67.38. Sgt. Kenneth Espey conducted the initial investigation, and later, Sgt. Richard Clark obtained fingerprints oil the register. Since entry was not forcible, it has been concluded the intruders entered either with a key or picked the lock. Mark's Marine is owned by Don Looze and Herb Kane. Small Theft McHenry Police Sgt. Kenneth Espey, in making a routine check during the early hours of Monday morning, saw a car parked back of Garden Cities, Inc., at 3815 W. Elm street. Investigating further, he found a young man placing plants in the vehicle. Because of circumstances surrounding the i n c i d e n t, George Kunzer, owner of the business, withdrew a complaint Tuesday afternoon.

DOG BITE IN ISOLATED CAMP MEANS ORDEAL (Continued from Page 1) taken to a doctor. Upon their return, the Dews learned that the dog had been destroyed without the necessary rabies test being made. Having left the women alone at camp, and with the knowledge that a bear had been seen thereabouts the previous day, Pietla and the Dews became anxious to return. Because weather conditions prevented a flight, they made their way to an Indian reservation, where they obtained a boat and completed the trip back to camp. The Dews left last week Tuesday for their Highlands home, in ample time for Ronald to begin the rabies series, administered on the advice of their family physician. McHENRY MAN NOMINATED FOR REPRESENTATIVE THOMAS HANAHAN, JR. Thomas J./Hanahan, Jr., has been nominated for state^ representative on the Democratic ticket for the at-large orange ballot election next fall. In the primary, the local man was elected a delegate to the Democratic state representative nominating convention from the old 32nd representative district of McHenry, Boone, De- Kalb and Ogle counties. In seeking the nomination of state representative, he received the endorsements of the State Federation of Labor, the A. F. of L. and C.I.O., the Illinois Gasoline Retailers' association and various other state-wide organizations. Mr. Hanahan is a resident of the McHenry area and is Democratic committeeman in Precinct 16.

All state representatives are . running at large on a separate orange ballot. There will be 118 names on both the Democratic and Republican tickets, with only 177 to be elected.
