New Film At Baptist Church Probes America "Lost Generation", the latest release from World Wide Pictures, will be shown on Friday, Aug. 20, 1971 at the First Baptist church, McHenry. The movie utilizes multiple screen images and a probing documentary style to in­ vestigate attitudes on dissent, violence, the mood of America, and the answers that can be found by this generation as they face the decisions of life. Ac­ cording to the Rev. Virgle L. Chappell, pastor of the ch'^rch, the opinions of both young and old, urban and rural, rich and poor, are brought to the screen as the camera focuses on people of various backgrounds throughout the nation. Location, shots were filmed in Alaska, the southern states, on the farms and in the small towns of mid-America, and in the dying Haight-Ashbury hippie district of San Francisco. The feature-length film, which includes special ap­ pearances by Billy Graham, Art Linkletter and Jack Webb, was described by one reviewer as a moving film that calls on us to make a decision about how much we want to get in­ volved in the troubles of our times. It is a relevant story that demands our immediate at­ tention!" "Lost Generation" will be shown once at 7:30p.m. with no admission charge. The public is cordially invited. * CRYSTAL LAKE* FRI., SEPT. 3 MANOR ROAD SOUTH OF Rt 14 AUS: Lake Region Y's Mens Club L* CONDOLENCES Our sincerest condolences to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Becker and Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Becker on the loss of their father, Franklin G.

Here & There In BUSINESS Better Service Is Provided By Phone Equipment Just as the telephone has developed from the old crank model our parents or grand­ parents used to have, the telephone equipment behind- the-scenes is progressing too, to provide better, more efficient service. Some of this progress in telephone equipment has just come to the Woodstock service center, which serves Wood­ stock, McHenry, Crystal Lake, Harvard, Marengo and Union. In place of their old equipment, they've gained the newest development in test consoles and service center arrangements. The service center performs key operations in repair ser­ vice. Repair clerks answer calls from customers reporting trouble, and testmen test lines for trouble, dispatch repairmen to the troubled locations, and test out lines after a repair or installation job is completed.

Last Sunday I came out to look at my lot and found that quiet little John street has become quite hazardous. First, as I turned to go east on John street off Green, a car came out of the high school parking lot and almost hit me. As I proceeded east there is a blind spot on Jo)in street caused by a small hill. As I went over the hill, a red golf cart pulled out of a gravel driveway and almost caused a collision. "After two near misses I approached the driveway to the Country club itself where two golfers in a gas cart happily crossed in front of me with open beer in their hands. What's going on here and why doesn't the city do something about it? "Sincerely, "Clyde Bassett" Master Degree To G.R. Hauser Robert P. Hauser, son of George R. Hauser, 825 N.
