We really feasted, had second helpings. Mr. and Mrs. Sass had their son Herb, at jfiome with them for the holidays. They all took a trip to Madison. NEW CLUB A new Citizen Radio Club, started by Bruce Papeich of 110^ Cumberland, right here in Whispering Oaks. The club is called HEAT--Highway, Emergency, Action, Team. These young fellows are working in accordance with the police, to assist in all emergencies by furnishing instant radio telephone communication, and to promote operation with all forms of emergency radio communication. They stop when they see a car or truck off the road that is having trouble, they then call headquarters tg, give location of the accident or trouble, and if the police are not there they go and see if they can help in any way. This club monitor son Channel 9 and from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., every night, if they receive a distress call and the channel is busy they use JO-33. They also have cars out on patrol looking for motorists in trouble and who don't have radios in their car.- They have cards they give out to show their assistance for any one in need. They helped a boat that was in trouble on the Fox River that was sinking, and by the pilot of the boat radioing in, he was saved by HEAT. So here we have some very helpful fellows who are doing a good job. FILE FOR INCORPORATION The boarct^of directors are filing for the incorporation of Whimpering Oaks Association, and it is under way. They have also contacted some officials regarding our tax situation in this area. OUR TRIP OUT WEST Today was to be spent at Disney land so wte me^t the boys at the gate as soon as it was opened. Of course this place is very popular and I think every one has heard of it, but if one has never been there, they will never have known the magnificence or the magnitude of the place. In brief it is a glorified amusement park and it seems that no expense has been spared to make it the worlds greatest. We visited as many of the various attractions !^s could but it would take a week to see it all.
