Thursday, AprIH4,1966 THE McHEKRV PLAINDEALEH Section Three --- Page Seven MCCULLOM LAKE NEWS EVE LEVESQUE 885-1191 TRUSTEES STUDY ! DRAINAGE WORK ! SPECIFICATIONS | Neal E. Giuntoli, a rep- • resentative of Baxter mid ; Woodmah, village engineers, 1 was present at the last rrieet- • ing of the village board to pre- I sent specifications for much • needed drainage work in the ; Knollwood section of the vil- 1 lage. The storm sewer project • will draw off water and elim- ' in ate flooding conditions which • occur in that area now. The " specifications were studied by . the five trustees present at the - meeting held Monday, April 4, in the beachhouse. Included in • the big project .were plans to I take care of the drainage work • at Eastwood (Gate 4) and W. Orchard Drive. Fallowing discussion of the • project, road commissioner ; Harry Lock moved to accept . resolution 35 which pertains to ] the storm sewer job. It was j seconded and passed unani- • mously. State approval will I now be sought before the work • can proceed. Mr. Lock also " stated that necessary road' repairs will commence as soon • as the roads are dry enough. Should be in the near future, • if the strike doesn't prevent I same. At the same meeting, build- - ing commissioner Rogor Kin- ! sey proposed slight increases . in the cost of building permits so that a small allotment may be granted to the building in- • spec tor who now works gratis | (and spends his own money for , expenses). This proposal was • unanimously accepted. Officers Ken Loesch and Tom . Bateman have completed a • course in police schooling in ; Crystal Lake. For those who • have protested the high cost of | the police department, it .was ' noted that slightly over $2,000 • was spent for police expenses | With much of this being re- . turned in fines, while over $20,- • 000 has been spent on roads in ' the last fiscal year. Excellent • protection has been accorded ; our residents with a very small ! outlay. ] Investigation is still being ! conducted by health and vtel- • fare commissioner John Boyle ' regarding community garbage . disposal. According to primary information, it might result in ' a savings of fifty cents per . month per family. More facts ' will be obtained. | New business revealed the • possibility of a small new sub- ' divison being annexed to the ! community. This has been • taken under advisement by the ; board, and more information .will be forthcoming. • Next meeting is Monday, Ap- |ril 18, at 8 p.m. in the beach- . house. The public is invited to • attend. Poor Turn Out For School Board Election A very niggardly sum of 39. votes was cast in the school board election held Saturday, April 9, in the beachhouse. The results show Vale Adams-- 23 votes: Don Weingart--29 and Elizabeth Nolan--19 votes in the~ high school board, plus one spoiled ballot. The grade school fesults revealed John Mclntyre--35, Bud Uttich--36, and Bill Kohl--35. Judges of the election were Emma Pyritz, Marge Olsen, and Mickey Murray. Crazy Hat Contest For Ladies' (J roup "Dig those crazy bonnets" will be the theme for the meeting of the Ladies of the Lake tonight (Thursday) when they meet in the beachhouse at 8 ; p.m. Any new gals of the il- • lage who are desirous of investigating the possibility of joining are encouraged to whip ' up a nutty chapeau and be on hand. You don't know the fun • you are missing! There will not be, a formal • party but refreshments will be "served following the games and business portion of the evening. Publicity and Edison Home Spark Florida Hiatus We have a celebrity in our midst with Nick Tabor making headlines in the Tampa Tribune. He received the publicity when he produced the largest catch of sheepshead (about 70 pounds) in one day. They were caught in Lemon Bay, Fla. Nick and his lovely Betty recently returned from two months of leisure livin' at Stan ford's Resort. Englewood, Fla. The resort is located on a small island situated between Lemon Bay and the Gulf* of Mexico. The two left our shores the end of January when Betty was released from Sherman hospital, Elgin, following surgery. Shortly after their arrival, about mid Feburary, they toofc a day's journey to Fort Meyers to tour Thomas Alva Edison's winter home, new museum, and factory there. They were on hand for the dedication of the new museum at which time a handsome bust of T.A.E. was unveiled. Florida's governor, the mayor of Fort Meyers, and T.A.'s youngest son (about 80) were the dignataries present for the dedication. The two toured the museum which revealed the hundreds of inventions for which Edison was famous in addition to the It mma wHk short, strong stalks for today's forming.

A trip through the Edison home revealed tropical plants; of fabulous splendor including cypress trees, hundreds aind hundreds of years old with roots extending for miles, bamboo which clicks when the wind blows through, (An eerie sound, according to Betty; tout something she desires)1 and gorgeous plants of every hue. The Edison home is next door to the Henry Ford estate with a friendship gkte connecting the two properties. When Ford passed on, the gate was closed and has never been opened. That same evening, they viewed the Festival of Lights Which is held annually and begins at dusk. The spectacular parade takes about 2% hours and all the floats are brilliantly lighted. Hard to say which was lovelier, according to Betty-- the lights or the beautiful young women riding the floats ! They returned to their vacation home with their thirst for beauty, knowledge, and history thoroughly satiated. They spent their wedding anniversary on Feb. 9 in Venice, Fla. with a quiet dinner a deux. Highly informal but LOTS of fun were their excursions to Boca Grande to meet the shrimp boats and they would dine on succulent fare until the sea food ran out. The shrimp are reported to be as large as the small lobster tails available locally and each a juicy morsel. Sound dee-lish? Since their return, both have returned to their respective jobs, thoroughly rested and still looking ve-ery brown! Over 100 Baskets Dispensed At Easter Party The sharp, icy winds which blew off the lake last Saturday morning left the small fry of the village undaunted and they showed up, over 100 strong for the annual Easter egg hunt. Chiefs in charge of arrangements included Gene and Lorraine Frost, Rich Johnson, and Frank Kurth and they really pleased the wee ones. Following the hunt for prize eggs, (each child kept his "loot") each youngster was presented with a small Easter basket, filled with goodies. Those capturing prize eggs included Colleen G o d i n a, James Klapperich, Donna Godina, Dawn McKim, Sharon Jensen, Gail Gleeson, and three others who escaped before their names* could be 'learned. Assisting the "Committee were junior helpers Jack Morris; Jane, Tom, and Ken Frost; Alex Hocin; Jack Kaminski; and Michael Schlitt. Two new lads helped but the names were not known either. A zillion - thanks to the generosity of Madeline and Sam Nathanson, who donated ALL the handsome gifts. One more of their generous contributions to their community. Young at Heart (and Age, Too!) Gert Walter looked somewhat like one of her own kids as she helped her youngsters during the egg roil. As she at tempted to cross the ditch from the lot across from the beach, her feet flew out and she landed unceremoniously on her derriere. No injuries sustained, but slie is thinking of making a permanent ride out of it! Don Parenti was the picutre of nonchalance as he rode his son Donny's bike from his house to the Aahos* the other afternoon. Twenty inch wheel base, at that!

The study also shows the center has a short waiting list for persons wishing psychiatric help of some kind. George Mally, administrator for th-3 center, said one reason for 1hc greatly increased number of patients is that McHenry county has no private psychiatrists available. "As citizens learn about the work of the center and know psychiatrists and other mental health personnel can help people, our patient total rises sharply," Mally noted. The center served 331 new .• 4 . -- patients in 1965, .a big jump over the 1964 total of 202. In addition, the center :has 157 patients served in 1964 who required treatment in 1965--sp the total served by the center in 1965 adds up to 488. Right now the center has a list oi thirty persons waiting to be seen by a trained staff member. However, Mally issued this assuring statement: "Persons who require immediate help r:re interviewed and assisted. We want everyone to feel free to call if they know they need assistance or have a friend or relative who requires the immediate help of a person trained to serve persons mentally ill." Patients came -to the center from every township except three in 1965 Seneca, Hartland and Riley.
