The Village of Holiday Hills Cheri Hoglund 385-3944 Rain Does Little To Dampen Spirits Of Forty Guests Rained out? Not a chance. What started to be a family backyard picnic at Lou and Joan Laskowski's was moved to the Janik's recreation room. About forty assorted aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and cousins showed up to enjoy the day. Rain was ignored by all the young people who played football while the adults and children stayed indoors playing games. Food and laughter was in abundance as a good time was had by all. CHRISTENING Phillip Felix, infant son of Evelyn and Phillip Traskaski, was reborn of the water at his baptism Sept. 19. Father Sch­ wartz of St. Mary's had the honor of performing the ceremony and was assisted by Phillip's godparents, Geri Goodwillie and Matthew Geyer, Jr. Sharing in this special day were the grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Geyer and Mr. and Mrs. Felix Traskaski, both of Morton Grove. We rejoice with this family on this blessed occasion. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sharing your birthday with a few good freinds is one of the highlights in a little girl's life. The little girl is Heather Beltz and her good friends are Paulete Canady, Kathy Carroll, Buffy Catanzaro, Tracy Gauvitz, Jill and Kris Hoglund, Debbie Holtz, Kim Middelton, Nancy Pratt, Terry Priko, Lisa Quilico, Brian Toposki and Philip Wegener. The day was the perfect ending for a perfect sixth year. SAILING, SAILING Earl and Marge Kruger celebrated their thirtieth wedding anniversary by treating themselves to a Caribbean cruise aboard the M.S. Sun Viking, sailing from Miami, Fl. They spent fourteen fun-filled days basking in the warm summer sun and en­ joying the fresh ocean air between the days they toured the various stops along the route. The sights were breathtaking and one more beautiful than the other. The Krueger's enjoyed the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Bar­ bados, Haiti, Antigua, and Venezuela. They enjoyed shopping in the little-out-of-the-way villages and brought home many souvenirs and momentos of a most wonderful trip. But this was not the last of their thirteith year celebration as man and wife because upon returning home their children hosted a heck of a surprise party in Sunnyside, which featured a Hawaiian luau. Congratulations to a fine couple. SCHOOL DAZE We have in our midst two young girls who would be the source of pride to any Cub or White Sox fan. Tina Harwood and manager, Sue Bielsky, were selected to represent our village on the McHenry Junior high's girl's softball team. We wish them a terrific season. It will be a long time before Tammy Poduch will think that she is football material due to the painful fact that in doing so she broke her finger and will be in a cast for a few weeks. Thankfully she will heal and we hope it will be soon. Edgebrook school is hosting a book fair and open house the evening of the twentieth from 7 to 9 p.m. The teachers and staff are looking forward to meeting the parents of these children, so please set this date aside. WOMEN'S CLUB Got your Christmas list ready? If not, do it now and head for the fourth annual Arts and Crafts bazaar on the twentieth of Nov. at the V.F.W. on Route 120 from 9 to whenever. It's a perfect op­ portunity to have your shopping finished before the last minute rush. No need to worry about your holiday goodies either because the Women's club is also having a bake sale to tantilize your tummy. It promises to be a fun day. BIRTHDAY BOUQUETS... go to Colleen Priko on the ninth and Kimmie White on the twelfth. ANNIVERSARY ROSES... go to Terry and Diane Mickevitz on the eleventh. IN SYMPATHY Our sincere condolences to the family of A1 Mikkelsen on the very sudden death of his sister, Marian Eustaphieve. May the Lord strengthen them during this time of sorrow. RECOGNITION For all of you who have contributed to this column I humbly acknowledge your support and ask you for more of the same. I can use any and all help that you care to give, it's your column and your village. WOMEN'S CLUB Your reservations are 'still needed for the Women's club Luau. It's not too late to assure yourselves of a good time the night of the thirteenth at Casey's hall. The fun that will be had is sure to please you all. Come and enjoy. You won't regret it. Call Mim DeWitt, 385- 1527. VILLAGE NEWS If by now you still don't have your village sticker the price has been raised by 50 percent. You are now in violation of village law. This ordinance will be enforced. The stickers are available at the village clerk's office. In a second of a series, we spotlight the village clerk, Helen Scheinder, who with her husband, John and daughter, Jennifer, has lived in the village two and one-half years. It is their first house. Helen is a member of the Women's club and her husband is an activie member of the Holiday Hills Home Owner's association. The village clerk feels one of the ways to improve the community is to work together, not as divided groups. Because Helen knows many of the families in the village, the general feeling is that it could be a good village if we all work together. Her history degree which included many courses in government provides an ex­ cellent qualification for her position as the village clerk. The duties of this elected office are to keep all village records, get all necessary items published in the proper manner, post all necessary items in the village and help the board of trustees in any way. She must also issue all building permits and just recently all vehicle stickers. Helen has tried to keep the villagers in­ formed by means of newslet­ ters whenever it requires them. Roger Saunders has called a special meeting of the board of trustees tomorrow evening, Oct. 7 at the home of Bill Campbell. This, as all village meetings and all committee meetings, by law, is open to any and all concerend citizens. Please attend. HAVE A NICE DAY a i A m * * * 4 Tax Dollars Can Improve Transportation Got some good ideas on how your tax dollars should be spent to improve transportation for the year 2000 in the Chicago- N o r t h w e s t I n d i a n a metropolitan area? If you do, the Transportation Proposals Task Force wants to hear from you. Call 312-648- 0207 in Illinois or 219-883-2070 in Indiana. Those are the Transportation Proposal Hoti Line telephone numbers. They will be in operation from noon to 8 p.m., weekdays beginning today through Oct. 15 to answer questions from the public on how to submit ideas for im­ proved transportation for the future. The task force represents a group of agencies working to develop a Year 2000 Tran­ sportation Plan for Cook, DuPage, Lake, Will, McHenry and Kane counties in Illinois, and Lake and Porter counties in Indiana. Tentative adoption of the plan by the individual task force members is set for 1978. The five task force members are: Chicago's Department of Development and Planning, the Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission, the Chicago Area Transportation Study, the Northeastern Illinois Planning Commission and the Regional Transportation Authority. To ensure that the public's concerns are adequately reflected in the plan, the task force is inviting the public to submit their proposals to im­ prove transportation for the year 2000 in writing now through Oct. 22. The proposals for both Indiana and Illinois should be sent "to: Tran­ sportation Proposals, P.O. Box 6101, Chicago, II. 60680. To assure the understanding of the proposals submitted, the task force asks that each proposal first state a tran­ sportation problem and second, state a proposal to solve the problem. To assist the public in preparing its proposals, the task force has prepared a resource book entitled Patterns Workwise I Rot a job through a private employment agency, and signed a contract with them that I would pay them ten percent of my first year's salary. But the company had just laid me off after only two months working for them, and the private employment agency insists that I pay them and Prospects. It spells out the costs,-characteristics and capabilities of present modes of transportation and discusses the uses of less common modes, such as monorails and electric minicars. The resource book is available at all Chicago and selected suburban Illinois and Indiana libraries and other depositories throughout the region. Interested persons should call the hot line to find the nearest place to use the resource book and to get an­ swers to any questions regarding submission of transportation proposals. Those hot line numbers again are: 312-648-0207 in Illinois or 219-883-2070 in Indiana. the full ten percent of what my yearly salary would have been. Do I have to do this? Unfortunately, yes. The act governing private employment agencies provides that if you stay on the job for 30 days, then the contract is considered fulfilled even if you are laid off after that. If you lose the new job before the 30 days are up, and you aren't fired for drunkenness, dishonesty, unexcused tardiness or ab­ senteeism or insubordination, then the private employment agency can legally charge you only up to 25 percent of the total wages you made during the time you were employed. I'm retired and receive a pension, but I'm still healthy and have been trying to find work, but can't. Am I eligible for unemployment insurance benefits? It all depends on who paid into the pension fund. If your former employer paid the full amount, then the pension that you receive will be deducted from any unemployment in­ surance benefits you are en­ titled to. If you and your former employer each paid into the pension fund, regardless of what portion each of you paid, PAGE 19 • PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1976 Walkathon For March Of Dimes October 10 The fourth annual Walkathon sponsored by the McHenry county chapter of the March of Dimes has been scheduled for Oct. 10, according to Sharon Cullen, chairman of the county organization. Ms. Cullen is hoping for a big response from all walkers -- grade school children, high schoolers, college people, young and not-so-young adults. Sheriff Arthur Tyrrell will be among the marchers. The march is considered a way of showing that the public is joining the fight against birth defects. The Walkathon will begin in one-half of your pension will be deducted. If you paid all the money into your pension fund, then nothing will be deducted from your unemployment in­ surance benefits.

Those wishing to start in Woodstock will, reverse the procedure. There will be adequate protection for all through ef­ forts of the Civil Defense, the Sheriff's department and volunteers. People's Candidate In a small Western town, a stranger died He appeared not to have any relatives or friends, but the funeral was held, and the minister read a few passages from the Bible. Then, after a short prayer, the clergyman said. "Is there anyone in the audience who knew the deceased and would like to say a few words?" There was silence for a few moments, then, a man stood up in the back of the room "If nobody wants to occupy the time in speaking of the deceased," he said. "I'd like to say a few words in favor of Ben Sturley, the people's candidate for sheriff " Immediate Openings EXPERIENCED TOOL MAKERS Excellent Opportunities With Exceptional Benefits APPLY TO T.R.
