PLAINDEALER PHOTOS Star Watching Although it is necessary to use a telescope to see a truly large number of stars, it is possible to see several thousand with the naked eye. The meeting of Monday evening, Jan. 27, marked another milestone in the history of the Senior Citizen Club. After the general business meeting, officers-elect for 1969 were installed in a very appropriate ceremony performed by President Bert Welker. The enthusiasm and interest of members proves inspiring to officers and chairmen. One hundred and twenty "oldsters" came out in unpleasant weather for a meeting. In view of the exceedingly rapid growth of the club, it has been found necessary to amend and revise the Constitution and by-laws; therefore, Religion Teachers' Workshop the By-Law committee presented the proposed amendments and revisions which were read at the meeting, and which will be read again at the meeting on Feb. 10, discussed and then voted upon. Five new members were introduced, bringing the total membership at this time to a total of 314 hiembers. r Many guests have appeared at meetings, including prominent city officials, clergy, speakers, choral groups, etc. At this meeting was City Clerk, Earl Walsh (member No 300) and Mrs. Walsh.

Blafckwfell; 'and ' choir mistreds, Doily Mazzarella. Following the installation of officers and the introduction, of the new committee members a very interesting film was shown by John Patterson of Rockford, a representative from th$ Illinois Bell Telephone company, entitled "The High Roads of Illinois", showing that the lure of exotic "far away places" can apply to a trip right here in Illinois with its battlefields, imposing monuments, famous homes, unique towns and cities, and untouched wilderness -- all in reach of an easy drive in our own home state of Illinois. Many historical and natural wonders of the state, both well known and little explored tourist attractions, can provide some very interesting tourist adventures close to home. Everyone enjoyed the scenic tour, and from the sound of the group conversations, plans seemed to be forming for some trips as soon as the weather is nice. Following the movie, refreshments were served and a social period was enjoyed. The next regular meeting will be on Monday evening, Feb. 10, at 7:30 p.m. at the East campus cafeteria. As members were leaving, they were all reminded to start getting their recipes ready for the bake sale on Saturday, Feb. 15, at the McHenry State bank, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. All the good homemade bakery items and candies are to be brought to the bank as early as possible Feb. 15, starting at 8:30 a.m. and not later than noon. rides of Tjp.nna.rd tudio Free - P iece of Silver Free - Wedding Photo Free -- $20.00 11x14 Wall Portrait Free - $12.00 Portrait of 1st Baby All Free With Our Empress Line of Albums. . .
