MCCULLOM LAKE NEWS *VE LEVESqVE 385-4141 TWO FIRE ANSWERED FOl LAKEWOOD AREA According to Fire C!hief Ed Justen, his department answered two fire alarms for the Lakewood subdivision over the weekend. The first was a light sighted in an outside shed and thought to be a fire but checked out all right. The second alarm was turned in on Sunday night and Chief Justen and four of his men extinguished flames in a tree on fire on property rented by Kenneth Peterson, located near the railr o a d tracks and Lakewood Road. The property is owned by a family living in California. Only one piece of equipment was needed for ^he small blaze which broke out between 7:30 and 8 p.m. Death Claims ILafcewood Bo ad Resident Mrs. Olga Lakeberg, 83, of Lakewood Road, passed away in Highland Nursing Home, Genoa City, Wise., last Thursday night.

Drive Ends Soon Volunteers have been calling on residents in order to collect funds for the Cerebral Palsy drive. Marie McKim is chairman of the drive and she says the response has been quite good, but there is not much time left to donate. The coming weekend will wrap up the drive and we are hopeful that this year's results will surpass former collections. The money is used for research and help for those stricken with the dread disease. Your co-operation will be sincerely appreciated. Former Resident Recovering From A Heart Attack Siegfried Stevenson, formerly of Fountain Lane and now residing in the Illinois Masonic Home, Sullivan, HI., suffered an almost deadly heart attack about seven weeks ago, but is recovering with excellent treatment. According to this letter, Mr. Stevenson's home has been sold, but he keeps in touch with his friends by reading his weekly copy of the Plaindealer. His son -- George Haines, presented him with the much appreciated gift. The genial gentleman's cheery outlook never wavers in spite of his adversity, but we know he would be considerably pleased with messages from his many acquaintances and friends. The zip code number for the home is 61951. Hospitalized In McHenry Village President Arthur J. Stuhlfeier was released from McHenry hospital last Friday afternoon. He had been in for treatment since a week ago Monday. A Fabulous Future ith the talent for playing organ she displays, Kathy Klapperich has a mighty golden future ahead of her. The attractive Miss played for family friends for about four hours last Saturday night. Her dad has promised her a hand selected wardrobe when she masters the difficult selection, "Liebestraum." Quite a target for which to aim. Eileen and Peter John were gracious hosts for Phyllis and Dick White, Elma Nelson, A1 Kanak, Ed Caron, and Jake and myself. A most enjoyable evening with charming people. Teen Note* The young gals and guys were going to wrap up plans last Tuesday night for a roller skating party in the near future. They are also busy drafting a set of by-laws. They have newly elected eager officers and should accomplish a great deal with their fine organization.

YOUTH AND COLLEGE "TO the Editor: "I would like to speak on behalf of those persons whom I fell that the Junior College issues concerns most, namely, the young people of McHenry county, the potential students of such an institution. "Most of us are aware of what a junior college would mean to the taxpayers of McHenry county. But what would it mean to the students? To some students the presence or absence of a Junior college in this county will decide whether or not tiMey will be able to continue their formal education, but will probably determine how great a contribution they will be able to make to society in the years to come. "There are many students in this area who, because of financial difficulties, family illness, or because they just didn't make the grade in high school, will be unable to enter a four-year college. T h e s e a r e t h e p e o p l e who necessitate having a Junior College in McHenry county. "In addition, some students prefer a Junior college to a four-year college because of its convenience. Being located within the county, a Junior college, would be close enough to one's home so that the student could continue to live at home --thus alleviating the cost of board and room. Also a Junior college student would, in all probability, be able to maintain a job -- something that is rather hard to find on a four-year campus. "Another advantage of a Junior college is that a high • school degree is not necessary for admittance --thus the high school dropout would be provided with an opportunity to further his formal education.' ' I also think that a Junior college would be beneficial to the taxpayer as well as the student, for it would keep our, country's greatest natural resource, youth, in the county. I hope that when the referendum is presented, the taxpayers will think of it not as a tax but rather as an investment in the future of America. ' "In. conclusion, I would like to quote the late President, John F. Kennedy who once said, 'A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.' Will you, as a citizen nd taxpayer of McHenry county, take the 'single step' in voting YES in the Junior c o l l e g e r e f e r e n d u m t h i s March?
