Youths Successful in Drive Some twenty-five members of the C.Y.J. marched door' to door in the cold last Sunday to solicit funds for the current cerebral palsy drive. This was strictly on a voluntary basis for these young people. The sum of close to $175 was realized for their efforts. After the door to door canvas in the various nearby s u b d i v i s i o n s , the members were treated to hot chocolate and doughnuts by Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Tobin in the community club hall. We are all very proud of these young people for giving so generously of their time and effort in such a worthwhile cause. New Home Dwellers The welcome mat is dusted off so it can be put out for the tieorge Deidrich family.

We toish them all the health and happiness possible in their new dwelling. And so another week brought to a close as far as this column is concerned. This week news is a little scarce-- everyone must be resting up after the holidays. I think we can all use a little normalcy brought back into our lives about now. Be very kind to each other and I hope to meet you all right here again next time. Remember news deadline time is each Monday at noon. vHow about giving me a call?

A 'Come As You Are* party proved to be an evening full of laughs for the Woman's Club last Wednesday, Jan. 11. About twenty-five members came dressed 'as they were' when one of the committee members called on them a few days before or even a few hours before the meeting. An array' of robes pajamas, hair rollers and slacks were the apparel worn for the affair. The meeting was held at the home of Mary Mahon with Arlene Foreman, Leone Kathon and Donna Kasprzyk serving as hostesses for the evening. Announcement was made Stating that next month's meeting will begin at 9 p.m. instead of 8 because of A.ih Wednesday, and the desire of many of the women to attend church first. Injured Flaying Hockey Jeff Kasprzyk is back home following surgery on his nose at McHenry hospital. While playing hockey on the lake channel, he was hit in the face by a hockey puck, the injury to his nose. Swimming, Anyone? It's a little difficult to think of swimming at this time of the year, I know, but Women's club must begin preparations now, if we are to have swimming at our lake beach this summer. An instructor must be contacted months ahead to insure a qualified teacher for our children. The women have again voted in favor of holding lessons and a committee will soon be at work laying all the necessary groundwork. February Elections February is the month during which both the Holiday Hills Property Owner's Association and the Women's dub elect their officers for the year. Watch this column for the dates and candidates. Head Committee For Women's Club Dinner Mary Mahon and Eunice Heise will head the committee in charge of the annual Women's Club dinner held the second Wednesday in May each year. Their first job will be to contact several suitable restaurants and get price lists. These will be returned to the women for a vote on where the majority want to go. The Women's club will undertake a special project this year to pay expenses for the dinner. Get-Well Wishes Hurry and get well wishes to Pearl and Harold Bough who have been fighting some kind of cold or flu bug for the past several weeks, to Jeff Kasprzyk with his broken nose and to Todd Maizahn down with the mumps.

USE THE CLASSIFIEDS 200 MILLIONTH TELEPHONE GOES INTO USE IN '66 There were 195.3 million telephones in the world at the start of 1966, the American Telephone and .Telegraph company reports. The world's 200 millionth telephone, AT&T estimates, went into service sometime in the middle, of the year. The increase during 1965 was 12.8 million, the largest gain ever recorded in a single year. As world-wide growth in telephones continues, the use of telephones for overseas calling is climbing dramatically. There were 8.1 million calls between the U.S. and overseas points during the year ending Jan.; 1, 1966, a total of 26 per cent greater than the previous year's. AT &T estimates there were about 10.2 million overseas calls in 1966. - AT&T attributes the growth to the rapid expansion of high-quality facilities in the decade since the first trans- Atlantic telephone cable was lad in 1956, and to new convenience and speed in making overseas calls. Operator dialing greatly reduces calling time for many calls, and even faster connections are just over the horizon. In 1966 for the first time customers could dial their own overseas calls to the Virgin Islands. Customer dialing of calls to Europe was d e m o n s t r a t e d e a r l i e r t h i s year. The introduction of direct overseas dialing on a regular basis between points in the U.S. and Europe is expected to begin in 1970. "The World's Telephones" reveals that Canadians retain their title as the people who do the most talking on the telephone, averaging 635.6 conversations per person. Last year the average Canadian was credited with 622.8 calls. The United States is challenging Canada for the title. The new figures show 620 conversations for every person in the U.S., up from 591 a year earlier and nosing out the Virgin Islands for second place. The United States, with 93.7 million telephones, has just under 48 per cent of the world total, AT&T said. Second place is held by Japan, with 14 million telephones, followed by the United Kingdom with 10.7 million, West Germany with 8.8 million, the U.S.S.R. with an estimated 7.9 million, and Canada with 7.5 million. Among the countries with more tharo 500,000 telephones, the U.S. has the most in proportion to its population - 48 for every 100 persons. Sweden ranks second among the principal countries with 46 telephones per 100, followed % New Zealand with 38, Switzerland with 37.8 and Canada with 37.7. The tiny principality of Monocao, however, leads the world with its ratio of 53.45 ! telephones for every 100s. people in ItsJ population. The city with the most telephones for its population is Washington, D.C., with 92.6 per 100 persons. Second is White Plains, N.Y. with 84.5 telephones per 100, followed % Skokie, 111. with 80.
