The next hour will be open for "guest speakers or movies. The last hour is for entertainment and refreshments. A small fins will be imposed on each child who does not brings Ms record book to each meeting. After the meeting cool-aid and goodies were served.

Congratulations Boys! We must add though winners or losers all the boys played great ball. There were very few parents sitting in the cheering section throughout the season. Although some never missed agame even if it meant going without siqpperc We are sure these boys felt proud when they made a good - play or hit knowing their parents or relatives were watching. BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION Howard Siepman celebrated his ninth birthday on Sunday with Grandpa Siepman and Grandma Mitchell both of Chicago. Dottie was not as delighted as the children were when Grandma presented them with four super seven helmets with buzzers, lights and what notsl Laurie Radtke turned eleven on Wednesday. Besides her family, Grandma and Grandpa Eggebrecht of Chicago and Aunt Kathy were there to wish her well. Sally Segerstrom and three children spent her birthday in Chicago on Thursday at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Morrison. Also there were her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Turan, and sisters, Carolyn and Ka£hy. It was not only a birthday party but a bon voyage for Carolyn and Kathy who were leaving for Hawaii the next day on a two week vacation. SURPRISE BIRTHDAY PARTY A1 Holtfedt was surprised 011 Sunday afternoon with a grand birthdqy party given by his daughters, Jean Walczynski and Lorretta Mikkelsen. Those at the Walczynski home were the Mikkelsens, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Darling and children fromDes- Plaines, George and Millie Kropf from the Estates, a niece, and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Cooper from Chicago, a great niece and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Karbone of Chicago, a nephew and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Harley Shackelton, Jr., and children of Roselle and Mr. and Mrs. Bm Weich of Chicago. One of Mr. Holtfedt's favorite gifts was a bible he received from his godchild, the eldest of the Shackelton children, who had bought the gift with his own money. Joan had quite a timekeeping Mr. Holtfedt from suspecting a party as he lives with them, but nevertheless he was most delighted and surprised. HERE AND THERE Adele Connell and two sons spent Monday afternoon at the Jim Williams home visiting with Pat and children. Jim and Sandy Neff joined two other couples at the Bitterman home in McHenry on Sunday afternoon for an outside buffet supper. Dale and Charlotte Maule and children attended the Wisconsin State Fair in Milwaukee on Saturday. Harold Hastrup of Chicago spent the weekend with A1 and Velma Stephens. Tom and Vi Williams and Vi's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ben Larson of Genoa City, Wis., went to the Cubs baseball game in Chicago on Sunday. The Alfred Mays and Grandpa Spooner of Fox Lake, and the Tom Hanahans and families were at the Sunnyside Village picnic to enjoy all the good food refreshments, and games on Sunday. Ann Radtke's sister, Kathy Eggebrecht of Chicago, spent several days visiting with the Radtke family. On Sunday they drove her home and spent the day in Chicago. The Segerstrom family spent Sunday afternoon at Chain-OLakes State Park with friends, Gary and Marion Groleau and son of Northbrook and Gloria Sundling of Escanaba, Mich., picnicking and boating. What fun everyone had that attended the cousins party. The get together was held at Don and Madilyn Gamperl's home in Chicago. Some sixteen couples gathered, including Bud and Carol Kennebeck. Oh I you should have seen all the goodies that made up the buffet. After everyone had left Bud and Carol decided to spend the night with the Gamperls. Op their return home they accidently on purpose forgot one of their children. Well, Don and Madilyn now have a daughter for a few days, namely Karen. There were a couple of busy days for Marlene Berg last week. Marlene and Kerri spent a day in Lombard, with Patti Forrest and children. Then a few days later, Arlene Hettermann. Marlene's aunt who is visiting from Arlington, Va., stopped in for a short visit, Accompanying Arlene were Agnes Freund, Martens's mother, and Martha Freund, Marlene's aunt, ft was a very pleasant evening, one which they would like to duplicate more often. HELP! HELP! HELP! Can you load a hand? The Girl Scout Troop 88 and the, . Brownie Troop 150 needs leaders and co-leaders desperately. Mothers, here is a chance for you to do something for your children. It would be much easier for the Girl Scouts and Brownies to get the help they need if there was more cooperation from the parents. Bath the Troops will be disbanded if the leaders are not found. Also, there will be no mothers meeting to recruit the much needed leaders so if you are interested please contact Mrs. Claire Engh at 385-0739 or Mrs. Dolores Gerstein at 385--248. Is it too much to ask of you to give a little time in the best interest of your children. It would be a shame if out of so many girls not one mother would come forward to save these troops. ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION George and Millie Kropf celebrated their anniversary with the help of Vi Crane, Millie's sister. They spent the evening having a cocktail and then dining. CORRECTION Boy, did we goof in a previous article and we would like to take this chance to correct it. In the article on the 10 year class reunion attended hy Ed and Mary Ellen Wickman, we had stated that Mary Ellen was of the class of "47". This was in error of ten years, as she belonged to the class of "57". We are sorry for this error and hope Mary Ellen feels ten years younger now. VACATION Jim and Fran Fuqua and family spent a glorious two weeks seeing some .of the sights in our beautiful country. Among the unforgettable places toured fay the Fuquas were the Bad Lands, the Black Hills and Mount Rushmore and Yellow Stone Park. Some of the highlights of the trip was a helicopter ride around the Bad Lands and Yellow Stone where they saw bears, elk, moose, and coyotes. They were fortunate to find camping areas with swimming pools and even heated pools in a couple of their stops. The entire family had a marvelous time but are happy to be home again. However, no matter how good home looks they are already looking forward to their next trip. Millie Kropf and her sister, Vi Crane, were gone nine days vacationing in Wisconsin. It was the most luxurious vacation Millie has ever had. They stayed at a resort in Fontana, Wis., where it was breakfast in bed each morning. And every desire was as close ^asthe phone. If they were not resting in their room you could probably have found Millie and Vi at the indoor, outdoor pool or maybe in the sauna baths and other baths which they have there. They spent as afternoon in Lake Geneva dining out and doing some shopping. Another afternoon was spent similarly In Delaven. This is what is considered roughing it to the extreme wealthy but to Millie and Vi they could not have wished for more luxurious treatment but you can bet it was sure hard to come home and go back to work. The Caley family, the Russell Carr family and Pam Caley and daughter spent three weeks camping at Chain- O-Lakes Park in Fox Lake.. They had a wonderful time except for a little excitement. Donna Carr required stitches after stepping on a camp stake. The rest of the time was very relaxing and as you can see the Caleys are camping enthusiasts. ATTEND WEDDING Hie A1 Mays and children, Rose marie, Gerard and Daryll, attended the wedding of Al's niece, Ardis May, and Tom Miller. Hie nuptial Mass was at 3 p.m. at St. John's on Saturday, with the reception being held in the Community Club. HAWAIIAN LUAU Dottie and Ron Seipman went to a luau at the home of Shirley and Sigmund Strach in McHenry. This is an annual affair with the couples club. Everyone brought along a Polynesian dish and wore apparel to add to the Hawaiian atmosphere. The Strachs pool looked most inviting but cola weather kept them inside. GET TOGETHER Tom and Vi Williams entertained Tom's family on Tuesday, Tom has thirteen brothers and sisters; twelve of them came. Five are married and came with their families. They all live in nearby towns. Eight are still living at home, seven came with Tom's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Williams of Chicago. The rainy cool weather kept them inside but did not hamper their good time. WEEKENDERS Mary Rose and son, Don, and Alfie May stayed the weekend in Racine, Wis., at the home of Mary's sister-in-law, Alvina O* Brien. They went to the State Fair in Milwaukee, the zoo in Racine and also visited tits Hall of Flame which is a museum with antique fire fighting equipment. REGATTA RACE Three Cub Scouts raced the sailboats they had previously made, at the Segerstrom home on Wednesday afternoon. Steven Segerstrom, Tommy Hanahan, and Ernie Olsen sailed their boats in the backyard pool. Tommy's boat was by far the swiftest and came cut the winner. Hie bays ate their fill of brownies and cool-aid. If the Other Cub Scouts had Showed chances are those three rays might have starved! \ ACCIDENTS v Fifteen month old Tommyx Walczynski looks like the loser in a grand prize fight. He fell down on the sidewalk and cut his lip besides a few good scrapes. Janice Major fell while riding a bike and cut her knee. At present Janice is sporting a bandage and is limping slightly. Here is wishing you two fast mending. SYMPATHY !• We extend our deepest sympathy to the Walczynski and Mikkelsen families and A1 Holtfedt. Mrs. Clara Herman of Chicago, sister-in-law to Mr. Holtfodt and maternal aunt to Joan and Loretta passed away on Sunday after a lengthy illness. On Tuesday evening the families attended the wake in Chicago. HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY Donnie Dettlow was rewarded for his honesty this past week. While at the McHenry beach Donnie found a wallet, After returning home he showed his grandmother and with some investigation they were able to contact the owner. The owner was so delighted, he rewarded Donnie With $2 as there was $24 in the wallet. As the old saying goes\ " Honesty is the best policy" SEEK REPLACEMENTS These two columnists have found themselves with too many ' irons in the fire. We find it necessary to give up the column.
