New Couples Welcomed By Drama Club Members of the Checker­ board Square Dance club acknowledged the old saying, "The more the merrier," Saturday night, Jan. 20 at Edgebrook school when they welcomed into their mem­ bership seven couples, each of whom has successfully com­ pleted a series of lessons in the basics of square dancing. They include Ken and Jan Kohl, Barbara and Craig Pfan- nkuche, Diane and Bob Fuhler, Marilyn and Bill Bunton, Barb and Chuck Weston, Rosemarie and Roy Dunn, and Dan and Val Hansen. Many of the dancers took part in "stealing the caller's shirt" which entitles them to a "Shirt Snatcher" badge. However, the shirt was replaced by a handsome new one, a birthday gift to the caller. A delicious special birthday cake was served, along with other tasty goodies. President Bud Detwiler was required to call a tip in order to regain his club badge, thus enabling dancers to earn a "Torture Badge" for dancing to an amateur caller. Five couples the Kochs, Porters, Kammerers, Haufes and Glysings drove to New Berlin, Wis., Friday, Jan. 19, to join the crowds who came to help celebrate Dale Wagner's twenty-fifth year of calling. Approximately thirty squares, or 240 dancers, took turns sharing the floor to enjoy the calling of Wagner and his guest callers. His friendly manner has contributed much to his success, as shown by the hundreds of friends who shared the three-day celebration. The Checkerboard Squares membership now totals thirty- seven couples. After the dance Saturday night, an after-party was held. PUBLIC PULSE (The .Plaindealer invites the public to use this col­ umn as an expression of their views on subjects of general interest in our community. Our only re­ quest is that writers lim­ it themselves to 300 words or less - signature, full address and phone num­ ber. We ask too, that one individual not write on the same subject more than once each month. We re­ serve the right to delete any material which we consider libelous or in ob- jectional taste.) DEFENDING BUS DRIVERS "Dear Editor: "I'm getting sick and tired of hearing complaints about bus drivers. Parents who think their children are so cute and sweet should start driving themselves. "They should be at the lot by 7 a.m. and start up a cold bus, clean windows and then proceed to sweep up all of the trash, rotten apple cores, orange peels, sticky candy and gooey gum. "After all of this, they can pick up the 'lovely' children. I really don't think they would like to listen to the screaming, fighting and throwing papers in the air while they're trying to pay attention to the road and their pickups and dropoffs. "Parents fail to realize that the bus driver is concerned about the safety not only of their child but of ALL the children on the bus. "Mr. Blank, superintendent of transportation, is the only man in McHenry county's history that is operating in the black. He manages to set up all the routes so that each child gets to school as safely and as quickly as possible. Surely parents can't be so dead set against a man that does his job so well and to the benefit of the taxpayer. "As for the bus being late, safety is the first and utmost important item on the list of any bus driver. You parents must surely understand that there are many variables as weather, roads, traffic and yes, the children themselves, that help make a driver late or early. "Parents should get rid of their hangups and start worrying more and taking action on the behavior of their children on the bus. "Mrs. R. Nystrom "Bus 35" MOVES OFFICE Glenn Draper has moved his real estate business office from 4719 W. Rt. 120 to 810 N. Front street, in the Southgate Shopping area, McHenry. Here And There In Business Window Seat Adds Storage A storage window seat added in a youngster's room provides a well-lighted place to sit and read, or just daydream as many do. A simple box traming ot 2x4-inch western wood 18 inches deep will hold several drawers or a large cabinet for storage below the seat. Extending the unit a foot on each side of the window allows addition of bookshelves on each side, reaching from seat to ceil­ ing. Suggested woods for this purpose are western fir, pine or hemlock. Closing In Porch Adds Living Area A summertime screened porch can become a bright, year-around family room or entertaining cen­ ter. One wall is replaced with wood-framed sliding glass doors leading uulu a deck, anulliei is built-in with shelves and cabinets of western wood for TV set, ster­ eo and storage. If there is a third screened wall, it can be enclosed or re­ placed with large windows, de­ pending on whether privacy or a view is desired in that direction. Field Award To Robert Tague Robert J.
