A l b e r t Wrate, Belvidere, Mrs. James McCauley, Harvard, Mrs. Raymond Craig, Deerfield, Mrs. Robert Badber, Libertyville, Mrs. Ford Gibson, Waukegan, Miss Eva Palmer, Ingleside, board members. Mrs. John W. Wawirka, 12th Congressional District State Central Committeewoman, introduced Mrs. Len Jordan, wife of the U.S. Senator from Idaho. Mrs. Jordan began by saying that this area is "lucky to have Robert McClory representing us in the (U.S.) House (of Representatives) and Senator Dirksen in the Senate." Referring to Congressman McClory, Mrs. Jordan said that he has "training, experience, patience and understanding, liking and great respect." Her three tests for elected officials are: "Is he (1) able, (2) honest, and (3) a glutton for work. Bob McClory and Senator Dirksen meet these tests." Mrs. Jordan's theme was based on women's part in politics-- having coffees, planning banquets, addressing envelopes, ringing door bells, making phone calls. During the last election some workers spent time stressing the philosophy of conservatism instead of selling the candidates. Just as a "multiplicity of churches in a community is not bad", so members of a political party can have differing opinions on subjects and yet agree on the basis of republicanism. CHARM CLASS, RECORD DANCE IN YMCA PLANS The Lake Region YMCA announces the beginning of a high school girls' charm class on Oct. 25 and a seventh and eighth grade record dance for boys and girls on Oct. 29 as the remaining new youth activities in the YMCA fall schedule. The charm class for high school girls will have four sessions on Monday evenings at the Lake Region YMCA program center, 65 N. Williams street, Crystal Lake. Make-up, clothes, hairstyling and posture will be thoroughly discussed in the charm school which is free for YMCA members. There will be a small cost for girls who are not YMCA members. The junior high school record dance will be for boys and girls on eight Friday nights, once a month beginning on Oct. 29 and continuing through May. Dances will be held at the Lakewood village hall. Mr. and Mrs. Nevin Simons, planners of the program, have asked for interested adults to help chaperone the dances to call the Lake Region YMCA at 459-4455. The possibility of similar record dances for seventh and eighth graders being conducted in McHenry, Woodstock and Algonquin, on other Friday evenings is being explored by the YMCA program committee.

Carmen Hodges was presented with a Past President's Pin for his service to the P.T.A. in 1964. Mrs. Alford Johnston, membership chairman, announced a membership of 149, with her goal of 700 for the school year. Mrs. Alan Kreimeier, vicepresident, presented Marvin Martin, principal, who in turn introduced the faculty members, and finally, Carl Buckner, superintendent of schools. Mr. Buckner stated that the public will vote on the bond issue of $3,100,000 on Saturday, Oct. 30th, from noon till 7 p.m. at seven polling places in the school district. A total of 41.2 acres has been purchased in the Boone Valley subdivision. The high school is planned for an eventual enrollment of 2000 to 2200; but will initially house approximately 1,200 students (freshmen and sophbmores), with juniors and seniors occupying the present high school. The building includes plans for thirty-nine classrooms, eleven teaching stations, cafeteria, auditorium, gymnasium, library and swimming pool. Practice fields for football, baseball and G.A.A. activities are included, but there is no bleacher area or enormous outdoor lighting area to contend with, as present facilities are adequate. The building itself will present a single roof line, through it will be two, and two and one - half story at several points. Because of the topography at the site, the single roof line is possible, which will provide a great savings. The estimated cost of the building per square foot will be $14. The average cost to the taxpayers will be 11 cents per $100 assessed valuation per year for the duration of the issue which is twenty years. The board of the High School P.T.A. announced its support of the bond issue and urged its support by members of the P.T.A. The next P.T.A. meeting will be "College Night" at 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 18. Church Host To Marcy Youth This Sunday, Oct. 17, should prove both interesting and exciting to many persons in McHenry. The Community Methodist church has invited a group of young people from Marcy Center in Chicago to be their guests for the day. The youths will attend the 11 o'clock worship service, after which they will be taken to the homes of various member families for dinner and an afternoon of fun and fellowship. In the evening, the young folks and their hosts will return to the church, where a supper will be served by the Woman's Society of Christian Service, with Mrs. Samuel Winters in charge of the kitchen. At 6 p.m., a program will be presented by the Marcy Players, to which the public is invited. The elementary school group will present a musical number called "The King's New Clothes" and the Junior high group will give a short play including a few black-out skits. Rev. James E. Jones, director of drama .states that "through these visits they seek to stimulate the children to seek high goals, to know and appreciate how other persons live and work, and to teach them to express themselves in a more positive manner." Marcy center is a project related to the Board of Missions of the Methodist church. It was established in 1883 and now serves a largely negro population in the city. The Commission on Education of the church acts as sponsor for the visit and Mrs. Edwin C. Wittrock is coordinating chairman. on MIGHT DEPOSITORY IS Of Ei it,410 every ity seeoiit } That's 24 hows9 «r®rfk «f seconds... and It seaas yn cai do yoor baakhtg aay ttM •f day or night with m Depository Senrfea.
