VISIT DAUGHTER Robert and Martha Betts traveled to Augustana College at Rock Island, to visit their daughter, Debbie, for the homecoming football game the weekend of Oct. 21 and 22. Much to their surprise and delight daughter, Debbie, was presented with the award of "Who's Who" for Augustana College. It was a presentation of "Who's Who" Among Students in American Universities and Colleges in recognition of outstanding merit and accomplishments as a student. Needless to say Mom and Dad Betts were proud as punch of daughter. Deb. They wished they had been present when the award was presented but no one knew that this award was being given to Debbie until it was presented on Friday night. Bob and Martha stayed with Debbie Saturday and came home on Sunday just a bustin' their buttons. ANOTHER FEATHER Another feather in their caps for Bob and Martha Betts is the fact that their other daughter, Delores. has the leading part in the play at the Opera House in Woodstock tonight, Friday, Saturday, Nov. 4, and Sunday night, Nov. 5. The time for the play to start is 8 p.m. The name of the play is "Wanda June" and Delores plays the part of Wanda June. Hear she is doing a wonderful job at it too. Maybe we should all go and see our own local talent whenever possible. Good luck Delores. And, Mom you better get busy and sew those buttons back on for Dad. ENTERTAINED Talk about the little kids having a fun party, the big kids do too. Dave and Patti Miller entertained a big kids Halloween party last Saturday evening. There were costumes that you wouldn't believe. There were mice, kitty cats, mummies, vampires and ladies. All of these guests were from McHenry, Greenwood and Ringwood area. I believe a good time was had by all and the scavenger hunt they went on was unbelievable. Out of twenty-four items most groups returned with most of them, the highest number being 19. HALLOWEEN PARTY Though it wasn't a very sunny day last Sunday, it didn't dampen the spirits of about thirty-two assorted goblins, clowns, witches, princesses, etc., that gathered at the Ringwood United Methodist church to go trick-or-treat'n for UNICEF. The children collected about $140 and they wish to thank everyone who donated. Following the collection, the children met back at the church for games under the direction of members of the UMYF. The ladies of the church, with assistance from the mothers who drove, served lunch to the children and everyone went home with a little bag of "treats". Members of the parish-wide United Methodist Youth Fellowship met later that evening for a hayride party under the stars (sorry, no moon). Thanks to the skillful driving of Ben Jacobs, Sr., the young folks had a great ride through the fields. Following the ride, everyone enjoyed WAS YOUR PICTURE IN THE PAPER?

NEWS OF OLD NEIGHBORS A letter was received from Mrs. Shadle this past week thanking us for the birthday greeting in the paper. Also Wolf is still in the nursing home after having been hit by a car, driver unknown. He had a broken h«p from the accident. Hopefully he will be getting to go home soon. I'm sure they would be glad to hear from any of the old neigh­ borhood. Address is Mr. and Mrs. Wolf Shadle, 1954 West 253rd street, Lomita, California, 90717.- GREAT-GRANDPARENTS On Oct. 26 Mr. and Mrs. George Joslin became great- grandparents to a new family member.

THE HAPPY WANDERERS Clayton and Virginia Bruce who are getting better known as "the happy wanderers" are home once again after a couple of weeks of visiting witn Clayton's mother, Clara Bruce, of Mt. Vernon, 111., and his sister, Mrs. Jewell Darnell of Salt Lake, Utah. Then onward to Ava, Mo., where they visited with another sister and her husband, Merill and Estalee Culvey. They managed to bring home a load of rocks besides a few goodies from some of the antique stores, on some off beaten track. While down in the hills they were taken to a community music night. So the story goes the only man with an amp. is the fella down the road with all the equipment. You guessed it, it was Merill. He owns and plays many in­ struments. Guess they sure did have a good time. REVIEW DRUG SITUATION; SET 9CHOOL POLICY (Continued from page 1) Mrs. O'Donnel told the board that the pre-vocational curriculum for the secondary Basic Skills student is an im­ portant and integral part of the total secondary program and curriculum. She explained further that there are two concurrent phases to this curriculum: (1) classroom instruction and discussion, and (2) on-the-job experience and training.' The concurrent phases, she continued, will provide the necessary services so each student will be able to enter into competitive employment or some form of productive ac­ tivity when he has completed the high school curriculum. In the business portion of the meeting, the board approved early graduation requests for Rae Dee Beno and Debra Howenstine. Copies of letters sent to parents regarding this year's prom, particularly as to costs, were distributed to the board. Principal Robert Swartzloff said response was light - about 100 responses from 850 letters - and indicated the prom is not the issue the school had con­ sidered it to b£. BOY HIT BY AUTO IMPROVES; OTHER CRASHES INVESTIGATED (Continued from page 1) Elm street, about midnight Friday. Mary L. Sehottler of 1415 Lily Lake road, McHenry, was eastbound on Elm when an unidentified auto struck her car causing her to collide with a parked vehicle owned by Lorraine Freise of 3800 Millstream drive, McHenry. The parked auto was forced into the cafe causing con­ siderable damage to the building. Another set of travelers from our village are George and Esther Joslin, as they spent a few days in Ohio, visiting with relatives. Sure bet the scenery was beautiful.

Senior Citizens Face Challenge In Figuring Property Tax Relief The arithmetic required to determine amounts of cash grants for persons age 65 and older under the Senior Citizens Property Tax Relief Act will be difficult for many applicants, according to the Illinois State Bar Association. Under the new law, which takes effect Jan. l, 1973, property tax relief - in the form of direct cash payments - will be available to senior citizens based on income and the amount of property tax paid as property owners or as a per­ centage of rent constituting property taxes. The ISBA said claims for tax grants may be made anytime after Jan. 1, 1973 and before Sept. 15, 1973. However, homeowners must wait until they receive their 1972 tax bills, since the amount of the bill is used in determining the grant to which the individual may be entitled. People who pay taxes in the form of rent may file claims immediately after Jan. 1 since their tax payment is considered the equivalent of 25 per cent of rent for the year, exclusive of charges for utilities or furnishings made as part of the rent Because the computations are not easy, the ISBA said, many senior citizens will prefer to use the service of their lawyers or other professional assistance in figuring their claims. Also eligible for gi ants under the Act are disabled persons who cannot be gainfully em­ ployed due to a physical or nvental disability which has lasted for 12 months or is ex­ pected to continue for that length of time according to professional diagnosis. Prospective claimants must first register with the State Dept. of Revenue- using forms available from department offices Forms for filing claims will be mailed to those who register, the ISBA said It noted that the Property Tax Relief Act is not to be confused with the Homestead Act which allows a $1,5<M) exemption in property tax assessments to homeowners of age 65 and older regardless of income. CONSUMERS' CORNtR'^gg, SW . Wales, not England, is the real land of King Arthur and his Round Table and of Camelot. vitamin-rich tomato plants, or a laboratory thermometer for science instruction. Children in 111 countries benefit by programs in health, nutrition, and education. Qiana velvet and Ultrasuede, two relatively new textile prod­ ucts, may soon be available in this community. Qiana velvet is durable, un- crushable, spotproof, soft and handwashablc. Designed for wo­ men's, men's and children's wear, the fabric will be available in black, burgundy, green, blue, pur­ ple, and red, with other shades scheduled for later production. It will be suitable for women's bla­ zers, slacks, shorts, shirts, bathing suits and for men's coats, casual slacks, sport jackets and evening wear. The other new fabric, Ultra­ suede, looks like the real McCoy, but it's an imitation. According to the manufacturer, Ultrasuede has some advantages over real suede. It's machine-washable, tumble- dryable, and easy-to-care for. It won't shrink, stretch, fray, crock, wrinkle, pill, water spot, or stiffen and it's colorfast. The pseudo- suede fabric is made of 60 percent polyester and 40 percent non- fibrous I'olyurethane. Otn tuiiliini; < milvs < <>\ rl tile lirld Ami oni" m lionls«<>\ I I tin -«uunlry.
