PAGE 5-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, JULY 27, 1973 Holiday Hills Karen Kottke Women's Club Holds Cook-Out For July Meeting The Holiday Hills Women's Club held no official meeting for July. Several of the gals gathered at the beach to have a hot dog and hamburger cookout, but the weather was a bit nippy so the gang reassembled at Sharon Kot- tke's house on Sunset. The girls roasted their goods at Sharon's. Sharon's daughter, Laura, provided a large bowl of pop­ corn for everyone. The evening was capped with a gab-fest and a few games of Charades. Two new members joined the group Marge Heuer, one of our new residents on Sunset Drive, and Irene Suchor, a new resident who lives on Elm Street. FLEA MARKET HUGE SUCCESS The hobby and craft flea market sponsored by the Holiday Hills Women's Club on Sunday, July 15, was one of the most profitable projects thus far organized by the mem­ bership. Much of the success is due to the efforts of Pat Hughes and Penny Appleyard. These gals organized the project and supervised much of the ac­ tivities on the day of the flea market. This activity would also have failed without the donations of the entire mem­ bership of the Women's Club. Thanks to all the women who helped at the tables on Sunday, they are as follows: Mary Ann Mahon, Midge Teuber, Marge Heuer, Sharon Kottke, Gail Postal, Karen Maras, Eleanor Brasser, Mimi DeWitt, Dee Wegener and Lorene Farr. A special acknowledgement to a few of the kids who spent most of the day helping out, Kathy Connell, Eileen Connell, Ricky Connell and Denise Hughes. FAMILY PICNIC Ed and Pat Hughes held one of the biggest family picnics in the area in some time. Pat 385-6675 invited her side of the family over on Sunday, July 22, for a real "Polish" picnic. Ap­ proximately forty-eight mem­ bers of Pat's family joined them for the day. Most of the relatives live in Chicago and don't have too many op­ portunities to see each other. Some of the guests included Pat's Uncle Otto and Aunt Bessie and their daughters, Florence and Phyliss, and her husband, Jerry, and their son, Bernie; Uncle Ray and Aunt Emma and their daughter, Judy, and her sons, Mark and Scott; Aunt Bonnie; Pat's brother, Wally, and his wife, Jackie, and their daughter, Michelle; Wally's other children, a son, Wally, Jr., and his wife, Ronell, and their son, Bryan; another son, Ricky, and daughters, Sharon and Elizabeth, who was ac­ companied by her fiance, Danny. Pat's sister-in-law Jackie's Mom and Dad and the Janiak family also attended the picnic. One of the high-lights of the day was the horseshoe tournament in which all the men participated. The elders were white washed by the youngster as Pat's brother's son, Ricky, and his cousin Artie, beat everyone. The rest of the family enjoyed boat rides, fishing, swimming, and various games. Many of Pat's neighbors contributed to the success of their picnic by contributing garbage cans, picnic tables, a parachute, and someone even helped them fly the Polish flag. Sunday was a fun filled day that will long be remembered by Ed and Pat Hughes and their entire family.

CLEAN UP WEEK As you have probably noticed and heard the grass cutters you may not have seen the workers preparing the vacant lots for cutting. Some twenty children ranging from the age of 8 to 13 years old walked every inch of the lots in weeds as high as 5 feet in some area to clean them out. Much of the items found were just thrown there by careless people. These items cost the village money every time we have to repair the grass cutter. Isn't it easier to just put out your discarded items with your weekly gar-, bage. For the children who MARK SPITZ, who splash­ ed into the public eye via his speed in the drink in Munich, is one of the first guest stars signed to appear on "The Dean Martin Comedy Hour." One hopes he is half as good at a laugh as he is at winning swimming. THE COACHES All- America football game, seen recently, was either the final whistle on last season's unselfishly help there will be a hot dog roast Friday at the beach. In order to participate in the roast, you would have had to help at least two days. Mrs. Lillegard has the list of eligible workers. Again, on behalf of the village people orchids to the fine youth in our area. One major incident occurred during the clean up and that was a snake appeared in the auto of Mrs. Lillegard in charge of the clean up. After forty five fruitless minutes ot stripping the car and looking for the snake we all finally gave up and went on home. An hour later the snake decided to take a sun bath and dislodged itself from the upholstery under the drivers seat and all is well again. play or the kickoff of next season. Whichever, it re­ minds fans to fume once again overthe 75-mile black­ out ring imposed on Nation­ al Football League tele­ casts. THE ELEVEN WEEK se­ ries of Canadian Football League action has begun for those who just can't abide a summer without gridiron action. _______ Goodness is not a com­ parison. 1 THINK ABOUT IT! j ftfl BY BOB JUSTEN Tie pledge of allegiance to the Christian flag(and did you know there is such a pledge?) is patterned on the pledge to the Stars and Stripes. The pledge to the Christian flag was first recited on Christmas Eve, 1908-11 years after the adoption of the flag. It occured in the Third Methodist Episcopal Church, Long Island City, N.Y., during the pastorate of the Reverend Mr. Lynn Hough. A Mr. Ralph Diffendorfer was conducting a confer­ ence of Sunday School workers in Brooklyn when the Rev. Mr. Hough suggested that a pledge of allegiance be prepared for use in saluting the Christian flag. Mr. Diffendorfer was impressed with the thought and asked the Rev. Mr. Hough to prepare an appropriate pledge. Before the conference ended, the pledge was prepared. "I pledge allegiance to my flag, and to the Savior for whose Kingdom it stands; one brotherhood, uniting all mankind In service and love." The pledge to the Christian flag and the pledge to the Stars and Stripes are closely linked in words - and purpose. . . .GEORGE R. JUSTEN FUNERAL HOME, 3519 W. Elm Street, McHenry, 111.

The bank, which was founded in 1966 to serve the savings and loan industry exclusively, now ranks as the eleventh largest commercial bank in Chicago and among the top 250 in the nation. Arnold J. Rauen of McHenry, president and chief executive officer, said the rising interest rates in the second quarter of the year continued to put profit margins under pressure so that earnings in the first six months of 1973 declined to $129,755, equal to 83 cents a share, from $195,423, or $1.26 a share a year earlier. "Excluding the cost of money, operating costs in the second quarter remained relatively stable despite a 40 per cent increase in our office facilities and additions to the staff," Rauen said.
