Erckman of 4720 Cumberland Circle have just returned from a month's vacation in the Hawaiian Islands. They spent three weeks on Oahu, at, Waikiki, enjoying the sunshine and visiting such points of interest as Pearl Harbor, Polynesian Cultural Center, Ulu Mau Village, Dole Pineapple Cannerys, Sugar Cane Refinery, Diamond Head and Hickam Field. While Out walking one morning, they met Jim Engles and his new bride. They were on their honeymoon there. It seems like a small world. The final week was spent touring the outer Islands of Kauai, Maui and Hawaii. The tour of Hawaii included a trip to the Kilauvea Crater. This is an active volcano. The lava flows in an underground tunnel, into the sea, near the Black Sands Beach. The round trip via the plane was most enjoyable. EASTER GUESTS I hope everyone had a happy Easter. It is the time when everything comes to life again and the winter gloom is out of sight. Little grandchildren are showing up in Whispering Oaks? It is Easter vacation time, no school. Makes the grandparents feel young at heart to have the young fry around. I now we enjoyed our granddaughter, Michelle, here for almost a week. Her family, her mother and daddy and brothers, Mark and Steven, came too. CARD CLUB Mrs. Fred Eastman had her canasta club at her home Tuesday. Mrs. Spaechman was the winner. SMALL WORLD It is a small world. When Mrs. Frank Crawford read the Whispering Oaks news last week and checked the news of the new people who have moved in one of them was familiar. She and Gilbert Brunke attended the same school in Chicago and he and Mr. Crawford worked for the same company. They have known each other for a long time and are happy to have Gil and Libby as neighbors. The Crawfords are busy going to the Little League baseball games in LaGrange. Their middle grandson, Glenn, made the team and they won both games they played so far. Their oldest grandson, Scott, is par­ ticipating in the President's All American Sport's Contest. So far he is one of twelve who is still competing. TEN DAYS TO SANIBEL AND BACK HOME Phil and Ruby Paul of 4712 Cumberland Circle, left March 26, traveling through the south, visiting several friends in Lexington, Ky Terre Haute, Ind., and Leesburg, Fla. The highlights were their visit with Ruelle and Dee Caldwell in Clearwater, Fla., where the Pawls stayed in their beautiful new Florida home. That same evening the Pawls and Cald- wells picked up Bill and Ann Yeremas who are staying in Clearview. They all had a good McHenry dinner and evening of fun. The Pawls next stop was a visit to the Sanibel Sea Shell Island just off Fort Meyers. Here too was a pleasant sur­ prise for the Pawls, here they met the Hoddossys of 4701 Ashley. The Hoddossys were completing a 12 week stay on this island and have been visiting this island for 12 seasons. The Hoddossys in­ troduced the Pawls into the art of day and night seashell hunting. The return home by the Pawls was taken by way of the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee, Gatlinberg and throught Brown County, an Artist's Haven, in Indiana. The Pawls are glad to be back in Whispering Oaks into a little snow and into the four seasons living again. Proclamation The first of May will be celebrated throughout America as LAW DAY U.S.A. It has been set aside by joint resolution of Congress and by Presidential proclamation to remind every American that our freedom and our safety do depend upon adherence to the rule of law. The many rights and freedoms which Americans accept as their birthright are made possible only by obedience to the laws established by our elected representatives. Solutions of grievances, no matter how just, cannot be solved by wanton rioting, destruction of public property and the bombings of courts and institutions of higher learning. On the occasion of this nation's observance on May 1 of the fourteenth annual celebration of LAW DAY U.S.A., let each of us seek an increased understanding of, and respect for, the rule of law. For it is law which unites and governs a free people. Now, therefore, I, Donald P. Doherty, mayor of the city of McHenry, do hereby proclaim Saturday, May 1, 1971, as Law Day, U.S.A. in the city of McHenry, and call upon all citizens, organizations, churches, schools and lay groups to recognize this special day through appropriate urograms. Dated at the city of McHenry, this sixth day of April, 1971. DONALD P. DOHERTY, Mayor Here & There In BUSINESS Underground Cable Big Casualty Of Spring Season Spring is on the way. One of the more familiar sounds of the season, along with the birds and bees, is the rumble of heavy machinery as con­ tractors rush to take advantage of thawed ground to begin construction. Despite all good intentions, one of the big casualties of spring is underground telephone cable. There are thousands of miles of cable buried throughout areas served by Illinois Bell, and when contractors begin diggin, there's always a chance they'll accidentally damage a cable unless they know where to dig. "In cases where traffic lights are being installed, a single family dwelling is under construction, or even a backyard fence is being placed, a call to our office could clear the digging site immediately, if we know we have no cable in the area," Konen said. "Or we would send one of our men out to the site to mark the location of the underground lines." "If there's the slightest doubt, give us a call. After all, the contractor or home owner could just as easily cut his own telephone lines as well as those serving the surrounding area." What's the best answer to protect yourself and your community? Call before you dig. WINS TRIP It's London this month for insurance man Roger J. En- sminger of Ringwood, a member of the Jordan- Edwards agency in Chicago. Ensminger earned the trip to the agency's annual meeting through his outstanding per­ formance during 1970. En­ sminger, who will leave for London with his wife, Donna, on April 22, wrote more than $1 million of new insurance in 1970 to qualify for the trip to the agency's annual meeting. Earlier annual meetings have been both in Chicago and overseas. MOTORCYCLE REGULATIONS The weather should become acceptable fairly soon, and maybe you are considering doing some motorcycle or motorbike riding during the pleasant months. If you are, and your drivers license was issued after Jan. 1, 1969, your license must carry a motor­ cycle and-or motor-driven cycle classification, or vour operation of that kind of vehicle will be illegal. You must qualify for a motorcycle and-or motor- driven cycle classification by examination, and you must have it whether you own, borrow or rent one of those vehicles. Those requirements of state law were pointed out by Secretary of State John W. Lewis. PARK BROCHURE 32-page brochure on Illinois parks and memorials is ready for distribution, Supt. Ronald Johnson of the state con­ s e r v a t i o n d e p a r t m e n t ' s division of parks and memorials announced. He said the brochure, in color, was compiled because of a growing demand for information about the area. More than 24,000,000 visitors in 1970 attest to the popularity of the parks and memorials, Johnson said. The brochure contains information about facilities at the state's 79 parks and 29 memorials. Paul Kilday In Teaching Internship Illinois State university has announced that 545 students in professional education are undertaking their teaching internships in more than 325 schools throughout Illinois. Dr. Cecilia J. Lauby, head of the Department of Professional Laboratory Experiences, said the program involves student Valley View Easter Contest * Jlfi * Sixth grade winners using the theme, Creatures from Egg Planet, are Ray Jensen, Dave Clark and Kerry Batdorff, and girls modeling their Easter bonnets are Cheryl Thacker, Kelly Staley, Debbie Benes and Denise Arroyo. Shown with egg tree are fourth and fifth grade winners: back row, Barbara Shaffer, Ellen Delelio, Colleen Rode and Pam Knutson; front row, Rob Thomas, Robert Hermes, Charlynda Johnson, Debbie Leek, Susan Kane and Judy Batdorff. This year the annual Easter Contest at Valley View featured special projects for Grades 4-6. The sixth grade girls were invited to make Easter bon­ nets. The entries in this field were so attractive it was dif­ ficult to choose the best. First place winner was Cheryl Thacker, with a tie for second going to Debbie Benes and Kelly Staley. Denise Arroyo placed third. The sixth grade boys entered Creatures from the Egg Planet. The most imaginative entry was made by Ray Jensen. Second prize was earned by Kerry Batdorff, and third, by Dave Clark. The fifth grade children decorated eggs to hang on an Easter egg tree. Charlynda Johnson won first place for her beautifully decorated egg. Debbie Leek and Susan Kane tied for second. Other winners were Ellen Delelio, Donna Lasko, Janet Rounds and Judy Batdorff. Rob Thomas and Robert Hermes placed first and second in the boys' division. The fourth grade girls made egg dolls. First prize went to Barbara Shaffer, who confided that she'd stayed up until midnight to make her entry. It took two hours to blow out the egg! Second place went to Colleen Rode and third to Pam Knutson. Prizes were presented by Miss Clark, school librarian. Each year the Easter contest creates a great deal of interest as well as resulting in a library at­ tractively decorated for the season. teaching, observation, par­ ticipation, sttudies of individual pupils and research. To qualify for teaching in­ ternships, a student in a teacher education major field must have earned at least 90 hours of college credit, have at least one semester's work in residence at ISU (except in special education where eight semester hours in residence are required), and satisfac­ torily completed courses which precede student teaching. Paul Kilday of 3712 W. St. Paul's avenue, McHenry, is teaching health and physical education at Elgin high school under this program. The usual pattern is to assign a student to a school for nine weeks where he does full-time student teaching. During this period he will work with a supervising teacher and literally becomes a member of the school staff and community in which he is working.
