IT • McCullom Lake Gerry Milbratz 385-8543 Little League fag Day Proves itpry Successful Theboysln Little League had a very successful tag day, Saturday, July 7. They went out in shifts to McHenry from 6 a.m. till about 2:30 p.m. Pat Mayer held up the home front serving refreshments to the kids as they came back. Dozens of hot dogs and cans of pop were consumed by the boys, who put forth their best efforts in collecting. As of this writing, they've done as well, possibly better than last year. Money collected will go towards the purchase of new baseball equipment as needed. BOARD MEETING There was a good turnout at the board meeting July 10. Among matters discussed was the passing of two new or­ dinances. One pertains to cutting down weeds, and keeping property clear of trash. This applies to summer residents and vacant lot owners, as well as permanent residents. The other ordinance has to do with building permits. Previously, permits were good for two years, now they will expire after one year. Plans are being made to post signs at the beach, restricting fishing to certain areas. This is to lessen the danger of someone being hurt by hooks or other fishing gear in the swimming area. There was some controversy involving the police depart­ ment. Residents said they want a£ much police protection as possible, and the officers should be able to go out when called. Board members said they too, have this desire but it costs too much. To save some money, Police Commissioner Ray Lary has instructed the police officers to answer only calls which they consider emergencies outside of regularly scheduled hours. A point brought up was that we could have more complete police protection if residents would be willing to pay ap­ proximately seven or eight dollars a year. Board members say this matter was brought up a few times before, with no \\ results, because nobody showed up to discuss it. [Another subject concerning * residents is the possibility of sewers in the village. The next meeting is August 14. Everyone is urged to come, with their suggestions and opinions, for or against. AN INTERESTING HOBBY If you want to find Alan and Lolly Rowe of N. Beachview in their spare time, just look 40 or 50 feet under water. The Rowes have a pontoon boat in Lake Geneva, where they go scuba diving as much as possible. They got interested in this unusual hobby a few years ago, and had to take lessons before they could be certified divers. They had to learn to breathe properly, and use the scuba equipment the right way. Lolly has gone down to 50 or 55 foot depths, and Alan has gone as far as 80 feet. They have'seen many different types of fish, and collected a lot of relics, such as dishes, lanterns and bottles. In Door County, on the Peninsula, they saw the remains of a couple of wrecked ships from the 1800's. Lolly says the deeper you go the less vegetation and visibility there is, although in places like Florida you can go down quite far and still see the top of the water. They like diving in the early morning best as the water is clearer and quiet then. Alan has been on vacation this week so they were able to go diving every morning and still have time to take their children on outings in the afternoons. BEACH GALS 2ry she at their sale at the thrift snop in McHenry. Many McCullom Lake residents came in to do their shopping that day. At the next meeting Aug. 1, the award winner will be named. The public is invited to attend.

CAMPING Dave and Karen Scarbrough recently returned from a camping trip in Montello, Wis. Along with them were their children, Rhonda, and Ricky, and Rhonda's friend, Marie Wyman. Usually they stay in a tent and Karen does all her cooking outside, but this time they had the use of a trailer. They all did a lot of swimming and fishing during the week, and one day took a ride to the railroad museum in Baraboo. On the Fourth of July there was a lovely fireworks display near the campgrounds. The weather was beautiful all week, and judging by the kids' tans, they must have taken full advantage of it. ROUGHING IT Another camper was Jimmy Wyman who went with his Uncle George, Aunt Ruth, and cousin Glen to a resort in Minnesota for two weeks. They stayed in a log cabin, and they also did a lot of swimming and fishing. Besides fish, they caught some turtles. On their last day, Jimmy and Glen caught a giant snapper, which they gave to the resort owner, who planned to use it for the next night's dinner. Jimmy enjoyed his vacation, except for having to do without a modern day convenience. That con­ venience being television.

Later at night Lorraine Blom and Pat Wyman stopped by for awhile. The group had an old fashioned sing-a-long including a hear­ tening rendition of "God Bless America".
