Faster Service For Directory Aid . McHenry county customers can now help themselves to faster, more convenient directory assistance service for numbers within the 815 area code region, according to Illinois Bell manager Stan Jozwiak, thanks to centralization of the 815 area. "In the past, if McHenry county customers wanted, say a Joliet or a LaSalle telephone number, they had to dial their local directory assistance "New Eyes For Needy" OpensWhole New World "He looked through them, under them and over them. Although unable to comprehend what was happening, his delight was shining in his face and one could sense a whole new world opening to him." What happened was that a 16- year-old put on a pair of eyeglasses. But this was no ordinary 16-year-old, and number to get any telephone listing in the 815 area code. Woodstock, McHenry and Crystal Lake customers need only dial 411. Harvard, Union and Marengo customers dial 1+411."

For all of his life he struggled in a small world he couldn't even see clearly. He probably still wouldn&be able to, but somebody he doesn't know and will never meet, made it possible for an organization called "New Eyes v for the Needy" to provide him with his first pair of glasses. Not everyone New Eyes helps has Jerry's special problems, but they all initially share two - they can't see well and they have no money for glasses. * New Eyes, a non-profit, non- sectarian organization headquartered in Short Hills, New Jersey, doesn't ask the public for money. All that the 300 volunteers who make up the organization hav^ ever^asked for is old eyeglasses, precious metal scrap and broken jewelry. . . • The volunteers, most of them housewives, test and sort the plastic framed glasses and then send them on their way to be HOUGHTON • HEATING • AIR CONDITIONING • GUTTERS - Free Estimates • CALL 385-5476 Industrial Arts At East Campus JERRY used again, often in distant parts of the world. The metal framed glasses and precious scrap are melted down and the money from the reclamation is used to set up funds in eighty- four hospitals in^twenty-nine states, D.C. Canada and Puerto Rico. These pay for new prescription glasses, or if needed, artificial eyes. In addition, arrangements have been made with numerous Public Welfare departments throughout the country whereby New Eyes pays for new glasses for needy persons who cannot otherwise afford them. Last year 851,994 pairs of glasses were mailed to New Eyes' official address, Short Hills, N.J. 07078. Not everyone had the name of the organization right, but for those who didn't there was no doubt of the sender's intention: "For The Help of People Who Have Trouble Seeing," "Hone of the Needy", "I and the Needy", "Place That Collects Glasses For The Needy", and "Needy Old Glasses". The name is important, but the work is even more so. Right now, other Jerrys are waiting. Legal Notice IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE 19TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT, McHENRY COUNTY, ILLINOIS FROBATF.

Three hundred boys and girls are involved in beginning Industrial Arts courses at East campus which consist of four nine-week sessions each in woodworking, metals, drafting and basic electricity. In advanced courses, 210 students work in advanced woodworking, 155 in metals, 180 in power mechanics and agriculture, 40 in advanced drafting, 20 in electronics and 13 in a beginning photography course. Five teachers in the Industrial Artsprogram handle these various courses. Virgil Prine teaches drafting and advanced woodworking, Bill Noyes works in metals and electricity, Toby Scott in metals, Tony Stumbris in woodworking and Eugene Rosio in power mechanics and agriculture. Many beautiful and useful projects are completed during these courses. The projects are chosen by the students, who make their sleections based on individual interests. Among the most popular choices are chess boards, meat tenderizers, bowls, tools and sheet metal projects. Virgil Prine Purpose of the program is not to develop specific skills but rather basic concepts related to machines, woodworking and the basic type knowledge to give students an interest in an area, Stumbris said. Since some students expressed an interest in photography, a program was begun. The students themselves worked on converting a small supply room into a dark room for use in the program. They built shelves, darkened windows, made developing sinks, etc. Next Brent Deppmeier, left, and Mr. Stumbris work on a student project, waxing a chessboard. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD year, the teachers hope to carry this project into a graphic arts course. This would dovetail into two courses of graphic arts which are now being taught at West campus. Much of the repair and remodeling work done in the Industrial Arts department is handled by students and their instructors as a means of practical experience. Virgil Prine, an instructor in the Industrial Arts department, is leaving the local school system after twenty-five years. School leaders agree that his talent as a*craftsman and as an example to his students, will be greatly missed. Mr. Prine received his Bachelor of Science degree from Wisconsin State university, Platteville, and his Master's degree at Iowa State university. He has taken extra work at Colorado State university. After teaching in Iowa, he was an instructor in Darlington high school and also taught for one year at Wisconsin State university. He spent a half year instructing at the Wisconsin State School for the Deaf, from where he came to McHenry.
