The whistle blew and they were off: first the smaller children and later the older ones. Eggs, eggs, everywhere and an especially marked dozen of them that rated a prize apiece--except that that dozen increased to thirteen somewhere along the way, leaving that last claimor prize-less. (Who ever heard of fogging an Easter egg?) But no one went home with an empty bag. After the hunt Velma Stephen!* awarded the prizes to the Winners of the drawing contest, Which were selected from the thirty-six entries. . Winners were: in the four and under age group: Darryl May and Christine Casey; five-eight years:. Guy Garn and Debbie Fuqua; nine-ten years: Casey Anderson and Stan Walczynski; and eleven and over: Sherwood Palmer and Peggy Stoffel. Congratulations to all the winners and to all who enjoyed taking part in the Easter activities. Easter Doings In spite of the dreary forecast by the weatherman, Easter Sunday proved to be a jewel of a day, save a slight chill. .The John Fiedler family were the guests of Grace and Jim Krzyzak at their motel in the Dells for a marvelous visit from Friday til Monday. Since there are no customers to care for yet at the motel, the two families were able to enjoy every minute of the time together, which included teaching Johnny and Eleanor to shoot a rifle and a short nose pistol, playing lots of cards, chatting, and of course conducting an egg hunt for the children. During one of their drives around the Dells area, the Fiedlers stopped to watch the fishermen at the dam. Moments after they left, they heard the rescue squad sirens: one of the fishermen (whom they had been watching) fell into the fiver. He was a twenty-one year old Milwaukee man whose wife was due to have a baby any day. But that was the only fad moment of the trip, with the highlight being the Krzyzaks' Easter gift to the Fiedlers for all their favors: a Manchester puppy weighing a gratnd total of two pounds, which they brought home in an Easter basket! The Roy Schroeders, celebrated Easter a week early at their daughter Jeannie's home in Qien Ellyn. The Louis DeFranciscos had Easter dinner at a favorite local. restaurant.

X-rays show no bredk, thank goodness, but Velma is in for a good forced rest: she must stay off her feet for several days. Claire Hoettels, who is staying with Velma each day, makes this possible. The Palmers and Norma Gunn saw to it that Velma was quickly and well attended to when she realized -(three hours after her fall) that her injuries were serious: she wasn't aible to walk. But right now - Velma is as chipper as ever, leg propped up and all. . . . t o J i m S t e p h e n s w h o l e f t today for Houston, Texas, where he anticipates he'll undergo surgery and then spend another month vacationing there at his brother's home.
