BALLPLAYERS WANTED ON SUNDAYS John Lanway asked me to ask for the men and older boys to come up. on Sundays at the school to join in a friendly game of baseball. I believe they play softball. All you interested fellows come on up and join. If s just for fun, and to give the men in the community a little relaxation on a Sunday afternoon. They plan to start the games around 1:30 or so, so come (Hi up. The youngsters and ladies are also invited. They do need a cheering section you know. BOARD MEETINGS HELD I have been asked by different people to publish just when the Ringwood Board of Directors hold its monthly meetings. So here goes.

But, if there should be a special meeting of some type, all will be notified either by paper or letter.

The one for August will be on August 14 at 8 p.m. All are held at the school. Board members are John Lanway, Clayton Bruce and Vince Tonyan. DOGS, DOGS EVERYWHERE, BUT HOME! I know we have brought up the problem of dogs running loQSe before, but it seems as tho* once again we have to bring it to your attention. Just this past week a little 4 year old boy was bitten by a large dog, but it did not break the skin. On,these hot days a dog has a tendency to be a little more irritable, as do people, so the danger of being bitten is greater. If you have a pet dog, and care for him, why not care enough to keep him or her in-, your own year? I'm sure pet sons owning their own dogs don't mind the mess of their dogs, but do we have to clean up after yours too? There are several dogs on the loose tipping garbage barrels over also, and this is exasperating for the owners too. We have a dog, but he's a member of our family, and we keep him on a line when he's out, and not allowed to run on other people's lawns to ruin their shrubbery or make the yard a place you have to be careful to walk on. I do hope this matter of dogs on the loose will be taken care of, or I'm afraid the authorities will have to be called and have loose running dogs picked up. PLANS FOR RINGWOOD DAYS BEING MADE A committee meeting was held on Wednesday of last week at Lowsville to make plans and appoint committees for the assorted activities which will take place at Ringwood Days, scheduled for August- 26 and 27.

BICYCLE RIDE ENDS TRAGICALLY Chuck Ackerman was enjoying a ride on the bike with his little girl, Rhonda, when he suddenly took a spill and by protecting Rhonda, slid on the blacktop on his face. Chuck is in Rockford Memorial hospital and was scheduled to undergo surgery on his face Monday morning. He has a broken top jaw, a badly injured eye and a shattered cheek bone. Little Rhonda didn't receive even a scratch, so Chuck took the full jolt. The doctors have said it's just one of those freak accidents, and it had to happen to Chuck. If any of you would like to drop Chuck a card, here's his address;Room A203, Rockford Memorial Hospital, Rockford, 111.
