Oft* -- Page Eight THE McHENHY PLAINDEALER Thursday* August 5, 196S TO ENROLL HERE (Continued from Page 1) most short travel being accomplished by use of scooters, bikes and busses. Trips to Saigon from her home city of Dalat (a distance of 300 kilometers) almost always are made by plane. Market Place Dalat, a market place known for its large vegetable farms, is not in the war-torn section of the country, but Mercury says it is sometimes possible to hear the bombs from her home. She attended a high school with an enrollment of abou' 1.200 -- not unlike that of McHenry. She has already received her diploma, and after a year spent in the United States will probably enter the University of Dalat. The grading system in Viet Nam schools is different, ranging from a high of about sixteen down to ten, under which a student is rated below average. Mercury has already noticed that her adopted copntry contains a sports-minded populace. In Dalat, she observed, soccer is the popular game, and this is only for men. Girls and women, she added, cio not participate in sporting events. Waiting For Snow With a twinkle in her eye, the little Vietnamese girl, attired in an attractive tangerine- colored, floor length, slim lined native dress, told with enthusiasm of her impatience in waiting for her firsts sight of ice and snow. She described the year 'round weather in Viet Nam as similar to that of McHenry in the coolness of early this week. She left her home in the midst of the rainy period, which extends about six months. Mercury departed from Saigon by plane July 27 and arrived in San Francisco on the twenty-eighth. Just how long the journey took, she found it hard to say, as the time changes became very confusing. In California sh? boarded a bus containing all A.F.S. students enroute to their various destinations. Four other Vietnamese girls made the plane trip with Mercury, all bound for high schools in Wisconsin. School Attire The long, native dresses which she brought to McHenry are of the type she wears to school in Dalat. Only at home, does she wear slacks. Mercury arrived with gifts for her adopted parents -- a pendant for Mother Guettl^*, a tie pin and cuff links for Father Guettler and a hand-made doll for Sally, 16. The attractive pendant contained, on one side, the picture of a Vietnamese girl and on the other, words in her native language which mean happiness. Asked in what courses she would have a special interest at M.C.H.S. Mercury responded thoughtfully, physics and chemistry. She said she would be anxious for the start of school so that she may improve her English. Mercury is the sixth daughter in the Guettler family. Besides Sally, there are Dawn, 14, Jean, 12, Peggy, 10 and Julie, 7. As a foreign exchange stu- FR. COAKLEY ENDS 17-YEAR LOCAL PASTORATE St. Patrick's Catholic church will have a new pastor on Aug. 21. He is Fr. Leonard J. Guzzardo, who will replace Fr. Wl; •f '-'liiiA '-M? • Rev. Edward C. Coakley Edward C. Coakley on his retirement due to ill'health. The retirement ends seventeen years of service to the parish. Father Guzznrdo is a native of Louisiana, but moved to Rockford as a child and attend- St. Thomas high school. He studied at Loras college, Dubuque, and St. Ambrose, Davenport, and completed his theological course at the North American college, Rome, where he was ordained in 1932. The new McIIenry pastor, who has headed Sacred Heart church, Aurora, since 1949, formerly served as assistant for St. Mary parish, Aurora, St. Mary, DeKalh, and St. Patrick, Dixon. He was pastor of St. Gall church, Elburn, from 1940 to 1949. Fr. Coakley, who has made a host of friends in his long pastorate here was ordained in Rockford in 1933. Among his many servcies in behalf of the church are included four years as chaplain in the U. S. Army. PRESENT MILK DEMONSTRATIONS AT COUNTY FAIR When the McHenry County fair opens on Aug. 5, The Milk Foundation, Inc., will be represented by three staff members. They will coordinate their activities with 4-H groups and the dairy princeses in presenting milk demonstrations. The object will be to present milk in a variety of ways to make summer drinks which are both nourishing and refreshing. The 4-H girls and daily princesses will actually prepare "summer coolers" and serve samples to viewers of the demonstration. The Milk Foundation is a non-profit organization, begun over thirty-four years ago to disseminate information as to the health values of milk and other dairy products, as an important food.

Utah stands about percent ahead of any other state, in the number ol famous men. on a per-capita basis. Find in the evening. Racing will make up the Sunday afternoon program. One of the important parts of the fair for young 4-H members with animal entries wilL be the Sunday auction. Cochairman Don Stoxten predicts that the future of American agriculture will depend on the ability to keep bright young men and women on the farm, adding that the support of McHenry county businessmen, industry and individuals is very much needed. "This is one forceful way", he remarked, "to say I'm interested --stay with it!" " Dairy Show Almost 300 head of dairy cattle will be on view when the McHenry * County Fair begins a four-day run Thursday, Aug. 5. , Daii-y exhibits arc the biggest single section oi the 4-H and open class livestock shows. More than half the dairy animals -- 155 -- are Holsteins, emphasizing McHenry county's role as the Black and White center of the state. Next largest number of entries is in the swine show. Thirty-nine exhibitors have entered 168 hogs. Altogether, exhibitors and participants in various facets of the fair will be seeking a share of $14,500 offered by the McHenry County Fair Association in open class and horse show competition. Loren Massey, chairman of commercial . exhibits, reports that there will be a science show and another educational show, each sponsored by a utility company. A bigger-than-usual display of farm machinery is in prospect, according to Charles Weingart of McHenry, who heads the outdoor exhibit space. The 620 4-H home economics members, with their 1,163 projects, will be in competition for some new awards at this year's fair, most of them in the culinary department. Of special interest in the clothing line will be the appearance of models selected to represent the county at this year's State Fair. Of growing importance on the fair program is the Junior Olympics scheduled Saturday, designed for the fleet-footed and including a variety of events for young people with ample energy. Of encouragement to fair officials was word from Wonder Lake that busses were being engaged to carry an expected 100 eager participants to the fairgrounds for Olympics fun. With this variety of attractions, and many more, the 1965 McHenry County Fair promises to be the biggest and best in history. Musin' & Meanderin' (Continued form Page 1) month would seem to prove that our county home is being operated economically. Bull Valley property is reported to be suffering damage caused by raccoons. Well; the 'coons may have a complaint also -- too many cars. Almost daily you can find one of the little fellows who came out on the bad end of a struggle for the right-of-way on the blacktop. One Sunday we saw three half _ grown raccoons in one spot, evidently felled by the same car. Maybe it's just because we like animals, but it seems that humans behind the wheel, are getting even for every grub worm the animals are said to be seeking in their work of lawil destruction. Manslaughter Charge Made Many expressions of regret were heard this past week as St. Patrick's pastor, Fr. Edward C. Coakley, announced his retirement for reasons of health. Fr. Coakley has served a McHenry church longer than any other local pastor now irr the city. His many parishioners and friends outside St. Patrick's church extend best i wishes as he leaves an enviable record of service behind.' The present parochial school was constructed during his pastorate. (Continued from Page 1) recently returned home. Bell posted $5,000 bond for his appearance in Branch I Circuit Court Aug. 12.

However, it would behoove each and every member* of the community to contribute to the support of a hospital of the' quality of McHenry hospital, and realize how fortunate we all are to have an organization of this type in an area the size of McHenrv."
