Post No. 4600, Ladies Auxiliary, and Joe Emmons, cubmaster of Pack 458 with the charter. Cub Scout Pack 458 held its annual Blue and Gold Dinner on Saturday evening, March 4, at the V.F.W. Hall, Post No. 4600, in McHenry. Following the opening, which was led by the Webelos Den, the welcome was given by Joe Emmons, Cub- master, and the prayer was given by Bill Abbink, In­ stitutional Representative. A delicious dinner followed which had been prepared by all the mothers of the Cub Scouts. The boys and all the other children present made short work of the table full of cupcakes and chocolate milk. After dinner, the most important and im­ pressive part of the evening took place. Jim Kirk, the Assistant District Commissioner of the Blackhawk Area Council, Kish- waukee District, led two boys in relating the story of scouting. These two boys, who on this night were "crossing the bridge" from Webelos into Boy Scouts, were Jay Wise and David Emmons. They lit the twelve candles on the bridge which stood for the Scout Laws: A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous* kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent. Then three candles were lit to signify the three parts of the Boy Scout oath, and the boys repeated the oath and gave the Scout sign. Dean Dunat was introduced. He is the committee chairman of Troop 162, the troop that both Jay and David are entering. With him, the two honored boys lit the seven candles signifying the Arrow of Light Award. Mr. Cunat also commented on how the committee of men serving each and every troop is the backbone of the troop. He gave the boys the Boy Scout hand­ shake, and welcomed them into the troop. The boys traded in their Webelos neckerchief for the Boy Scout neckerchief at this time. Jack Connell was introduced as past Cubmaster for many years of Pack 458. He made many interesting observations I LIQUOR STORES! • iPEBBLEFORDi ! Straight Bourbon Whiskey 2 79 Fifth I MONDAY ONLY MARCH 13th j McHENRY STORE ONLY 4610 W.

At the very end, before the cleaning up, Jim Kirk summed up all the feelings of everyone, when he repeated an overheard statement from one of the boys, "I can't believe I ate the whole thing!" The Cub Scouts, who barely made it off their chairs after many, many cupcakes, then gave the closing which was a group version of the Cub Scout Promise. FOUR YEARS OF WAITING PAID OFF After waiting for tickets for four years, the Thietje family of Driftwood Drive finally got to go to the studio and par­ ticipate in "Bozo's Circus," a popular daytime children's show. Roger and Linda, and their children, Karen, Brian, and Scottie, along with neigh­ bor, Leone Kathan, and daughter, Michelle, and several other friends, made their "television debut" on Monday, March 6. They picked good seats, as they appeared on die TV for much of the show. The children were really thrilled when after the show they got to meet Bozo, Mr. Ned, and Cookie in person, and received candy bars and malted milk balls. So it was an especially exciting day for the kids, although it seems as if Mom and Dad enjoyed everything about it, too. 4-H NEWS (Submitted by Theresa Maras and Wendy Young) The meeting of the 4 Aces 4-H Club was held on Feb. 29.

Civil Defense Issues j Warning On Tornadoes * With the tornado season approaching, John J. Shay, director of McHenry County Civil Defense, has issued certain information for distribution. Tornadoes are the smallest and most violent of all storms. They occur most frequently during the months of April, May and June, but they can happen at any time during the year. More than 1,000 persons have been killed in Illinois by tor­ nadoes since 1951, more than any other state. The U.S. Weather Service does everything possible to forecast and detect tornadoes. The destruction caused by these swift striking storms cannot be prevented, however, many lives can be saved if individuals, families, schools, business and industries are prepared for quick action when tornadoes threaten It is important to know the difference between the watches and warnings that are released by the Weather Service. A watch means simply that weather conditions exist for the formation of tornadoes and they could be expected to develop. In short, keep a watchful eye on the weather. A warning means a tornado has been sighted and im­ mediate shelter should be sought. Inasmuch as the majority of information comes via Chicago radio and TV, during severe weather times persons should listen to the local stations that serve McHenry county. Many communities in McHenry county have outdoor warning sirens. If the siren in the community sounds with a steady blast of 3 to5 minutes, it means that one should seek immediate shelter. The police, sheriff or Fire department should be called only to report emergencies or tornado BIRTHDAYS AND ANNIVERSARIES Happy birthday to Arlene Foreman and La von Dowhin on March 11, Gregory Smith on March 12, Wilma Galbreath on March 15, John Hale on March 16, and Linda Catanzaro on St. Patrick's Day, March 17. sightings.
