The program will be under the sponsorship of the Fine Arts association and will be administered by the association's business manager, Donald Barden. Competent persons are being employed to assist Barden with the teaching, directing and supervision of the program. This benefit performance on May 18 is the third of such performances. In 1966 members of the Apollo Opera company of Chicago provided a memorable and exciting evening singing excerpts of several well-known operas. Last year the Illinois Ballet company, the first major ballet company to appear in McHenry county, pirouet ;dbefore a capacity Opera House audience dressed in all its finery. This 1968 performance will have all the excitement and grandeur of those preceding it. A red carpet and top-hatted doorman will greet the audience. Members of the benefit committee are busy making the plans for beautifying the inside of the Opera House. This work is all being done to raise the necessary funds for the summer youth program. As President Culbertson added. "The Young people need creative activities to occupy their summer days. More than ever before, we need to keep them occupied and off the streets. We at the Opera House feel we have a very fine theatrical program to offer these young people." A dress rehearsal on Friday evening, May 17, at 8:30 will be open to students only at a lower price. Immediately following the May 18 performance there will be a buffet supper for patrons and sponsors and the cast. Reservations and information may be obtained by calling the Opera House or writing Box 225, Woodstock. Musin' & Meanderii (Continued from page 1) board meeting. Renovation of Landmark was not among them. When the Zoning proposal of the City Council came to the attention of the public a few days later through a public hearing, it was easy to understand how any consideration of the old school might rather be postponed. However, the fate of the Waukegan road zoning has since then become very uncertain, to say the least, in view of the fact that petitioners in that area were extremely vocal in their protest. Should any zoning change fall by the wayside in the next few weeks, the board might then reconsider Landmark as a possible solution. At least this seems reasonable in view of the fact that mobile classrooms were under discussion at the April meeting. One board member estimated that annual cost of eight classrooms, on a rental basi^ to run $100,000. If memory serves us correctly, the cost to renovate Landmark, using figures supplied in an estimate to the board, was $150,000 to onve Into Sprint Permanent Press Golf Jackets dacron polyester & cotton only $7 men's 36-46 boy's 14-18 385-0182 Glaxllto*ie'l In the Green Street Mall McHenry $190,000. Considering that eight per- ^ manent rooms would be prodded and at the same time the old landmark would be retained, the idea seems to have some merit. Last summer's heated debate over the Landmark issue, in many respects, was unfortunate and left many scars. Nevertheless, the fact remains that the pulse of the public was felt, -- a public whose support is so very important! The Plaindealer staff has mingled feelings of sorrow and anger as they look out this week upon an empty nest fashioned with painstaking care, for the second year, by a wild mallard duck. Over a period of several weeks last spring, we brought food and water to the duck as she patiently waited out the long hours until her eggs hatched. Because of publicity given to the long awaited event, youngsters made away with several eggs, but eventually the proud mother led her surviving offspring to the waters of the river. Itiis year the duck's nest, located back of the same pipe leading to the Plaindealer building, was kept secret from most people. However, an adult was seen removing the eggs in a box Tuesday afternoon during the short time the duck had left the nest. We understand laws are strict governing such wanton acts as they pertain to wildlife, and a few of our staff say they intend to see that they are obeyed, at least as they affect wild ducks on newspaper property. As we approach the season of dance recitals given by our young people, the following story seems most appropriate. A boy of 8, attending a dancing school, was taught by the instructor how to bow at the waist and ask a girl to dance. Twenty minutes later the same little boy approached the same instructor. "Ma'am", he said, "I have a question. Now, how do I get rid of her?" Friends here have received word from Mr. and Mrs. Bill Bacon of Greenwood, Ark., residents of Ringwood until a Seven Enter Queen Race (Continued from page 1) 1968 in San Antonio, and reservations have already been made for her June 20-24.

Mr. Bacon was passing through Greenwood last week when a tornado struck the small community, killing several persons. A board crashed through the rear window of the car as he was returning home and he was delayed until the early hours of the following day. However, he escaped injury. The Bacons have been greeting local friends at their new camp since moving to Arkansas. K.A.F. Ardelle Voeltz, 3820 Waukegan road, daughter of Howard Voeltz , a senior at McHenry high school.
