Vandalism Investigated In This Area (Continued from page 1) found a hole in the corner of the top, extending to the body line. The pumpkin was smash­ ed over the entire interior of the auto. A storm window, 182x18 was broken at 8 o'clock Friday night in the home of Howard Lefleur, 4711 Seneca, Wonder Lake. The article thrown was never found. A window in the home of George Hobart, 4018 Greenwood drive, Wonder Lake, and a street light near the home were broken Nov. 1. More damage was reported at the home of Jack Muffley, 1717 Brentwood lane, McHen­ ry, between 6:30 and midnight Friday. His house had been soaped, and shaving cream used on the doors. Vandals tore up his shrubbery and damaged a mail box. Glass was found on the porch, the result of throwing a glass jar at the back of the house. 1_ Donald Rischow of 4115 W. Lake Shore drive, Wonder Lake, told deputies that some­ one apparently shot BB pel­ lets through two of his win­ dows and also sprayed black paint on two of his coach lights mounted outside the home. Mr. Rischow said this followed an attempted break-in through a door leading from the garage to his home. Slang seems to be as pop­ ular as ever, only it changes every few years. Establish Collection Points Good Turn Day PG. 4 - PLAINDEALER - FRI. NOV. 7, 1969 This past week Bob Hay of Marengo, general chairman for the annual Good Turn Day to be staged here Saturday, Nov. 8, by the Kishwaukee district Boy Scouts, announced the col­ lection points in the area. Good Turn Day is an annual collection drive for clothing, shoes, small housewares, small appliances and toys by the Boy Scouts for Goodwill Industries to be used in a working, learning and earning program for the handicapped of the area. The following collection points have been named: Wonder Lake, Legion building, E. Won­ der Lake road; Richmond, 10020 Gulf avenue; McHenry, Savings and Loan parking lot. , In other areas the local chair­ men and Scout leaders will name some convenient collection point in their communities. The Scout bags will be deliv­ ered to each home and on Sat­ urday, Nov. 8, the Scouts will pick up the materials. Every­ thing for the drive should be on the front porch or curbing by 9 a.m. In this area the Scouts pre directly responsible for softie 30 percent of the training load and the Good Turn Days sup­ ply this material for the Good­ will Industries. Some eleven clients from this area are now being served by the agency. STATE HIGH IN INCIDENCE OF ENCEPHALITIS Illinois ranked high for mos- quitO-carried encephalitis in the 1968 figures just released by the U.S. Public Health Ser­ vice last week. Arborviral encephalitis, as it is called, is carried from an­ imals, often horses and wild birds to man by mosquitoes. Illinois had twenty-three con­ firmed cases of the St. Louis variety of this illness. It is believed that many more cases actually occurred. This is a difficult disease to diagnose aS it appears like many other men­ ingitis-like illness. Only twelve other cases of this particular kind of illness were reported from all the rest of the states. Illinois had about 20 percent of all cases of mosquito-borne encephalitis and two-thirds of all cases of the St. Louis type.
