S A V E T H E M C C W A Y • S A V E T H E M C C W A Y * S A V E T H E Twice Told Tales • .y.u j FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 29, 1927) What happened in the grand jury room Monday in the courthouse is still a mystery. The report of the work per­ formed by the jury during* the session is locked in the vault of the circuit clerk's office and will be handed the court next Saturday afternoon. The jury deliberated for more than six hours and did not adjourn until about 6 o'clock Monday night. That indictments were returned in some of the matters before the body is evident from the length of time the jury was out. Reports say that tem­ porary injunction suitseeking to close the doors of three prominent McHenry county soft drink parlors and summer resort hotels for alleged prohibition law violations were filed in Federal Judge Car­ penter's court in Chicago by Assistant State's Attorney Edgar Elder. No dam can be built in the Fox river without authority of an act of Congress, states Secretary of War Dwight L. Davis at Washington in a letter to Congressman Frank R. Reid of this district. Mr. Reid recently filed a vigorous protest with the War depart­ ment against any application for approval by the War department, which has replied to the congressman that a full opportunity will be given all interested parties to be publicly heard if an application for such a permit is filed. Howard V. Phalin of McHenry, a student of Notre Dame university, was recently elected as the Grand Knight of Notre Dame council, Knights of Columbus for the coming year. Mr. Phalin is noted as one of the most zealous workers in student activities at the university. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 30, 1937) Sergeant Lester Bacon of the State highway police force, and also a member of the American Legion, returned home Friday night from New York City, where he was on duty during the American Legion con­ vention in that city. Sergeant Bacon was the only member of the state highway police force to be taken from this district for duty at New York and was one of a detail of motorcycle pqlice , from Illinois to participate in the huge parade which con­ tinued for eighteen hours. Hie total value of property in McHenry township is $3,532,920 this year as fixed by the county board of review, making up a part of the total value of property in the county which this year reaches $33,059,380, approximately $1,000,000 more than last year when the total was $32,851,770. McHenry township is one of the richest in the county, according to the report of the board of review and is exceeded only by the township of Dorr and Algonquin in the value of its property. Algonquin township ranks highest, with a property valuation of $4,538,850 and Don- comes in a close second with a valuation of $4,369,280. McHenry lacks only $836,360 of tying Dorr in the valuation of its property and is ap­ proximately a little more than $100,000 under Algonquin. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oc­ tober 9, 1952) Although Christmas, 1952, is syjL many weeks away, the period Oct. 15 to Nov. 15 has been designated for the ac­ ceptance of Christmas parcels for members of the Armed Forces serving outside the continental United States. All is in readiness for the big homecoming game with Marengo Friday evening, Oct. 10, . and the many ac­ companying activities which make the day one of the biggest in the year in McHenry. One of the most eagerly anticipated portions of homecoming is the colorful parade on Friday afternoon at 2; 15. The four classes and many of the school's organizations are spending most of their free time in making their float a thing of beauty and one which they hope will capture one of the prizes. Last Friday afternoon McHenry, playing by far their best game of the season, defeated the highly touted Whitewater team 6 to 0. Playing in the sunshine on a perfect football day, the Warriors managed to spoil Whitewater's homecoming. Services on Sunday at the Community Methodist church have been changed. Instead of the two rites conducted through the summer months there will be only one service at 10:45 o'clock. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oc­ tober 4, 1967) Sunday, Oct. 1, was a perfect day for the District No. 156 school board's Progress day at the new high school structure located one mile south of McHenry on Crystal Lake road. Although the crowd was small, those viewing the qew structure were enthusiastic in their praise and were especially interested in the swimming pool, library-centered classrooms, and year round climate control. The functional nature of these innovations was discussed at great length by tour guides and participants. George Kraymer of McHenry rules again as fishing champion of Illinois. Kraymer, an out­ standing favorite to repeat, did just that when he outscored twenty-eight other finalists, including three former title- holders, on Channel Lake and Lake Catherine in the Chain O'Lakes region near here on Sunday, Sept. 24. Kraymer caught four black bass and ten white bass to total 308 points, while his closest competitor, Bob Svoboda of Antioch, finished second with two black bass for 161 points. From S.I.H. column: "Might as well get the painful part over first. Our White Sox failed to win the American League pennant. And never let it be said they didn't go down with their bats down. When Kansas City beat them in a double header it was all over. We met Chuck Geis, a Cub fan, the next morning and found him downright sorry, then we met Herb Reihansperger!" Letters of commendation honoring them for their high performance on the 1967 National Merit Scholarship Qualifying test have been awarded to five students at Marian Central Catholic high B&P SCHOLARSHIP WINNERS - It's back to school for Vicki Bazan, daughter of John Bazan, 4810 O'Sage road.

Vicki Bazan will attend McHenry Community college, Crystal Lake, also majoring in Bus­ iness. Extension Comments (By Goorgo J. Young, Extension Advisor, McHenry County, University of Illinois „ J Corn Borer Damage Stalk rot in corn fields could potentially reduce yields this year. Many fields have as much stalk rot now as one might normally expect during harvest time. Some late-maturing fields are also showing damage by second-brood European corn borer. Walk the fields and plan to harvest early the affected fields. This might be easier than trying to pick it up off the ground. Restricted Use List The EPA has classified twenty-four pesticides as restricted use materials. Although this initial list con­ tains only a few pesticides common to McHenry county farms, the EPA is considering a second group of chemicals for the restricted use list. This second list contains several common field pesticides. Persons can obtain their cer­ tification that allows them to purchase and use restricted use materials through the office. Call for details, 338-3737 or 4747. Hogs The first hogs brought to the American Mainland were thirteen porkers on May 25, 1539. These came with Spanish explorer Hernando DeSoto school. Among them were two from the McHenry area, Deborah Smith, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Smith, and Judith Strorigl, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sanley Walczynski. "POP 68" is the theme of the McHenry Township Republican Women's club dinner scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 17. Program Chairman Mrs. Grant Ernst explained that "POP 68" will be the continuing theme of the year's meetings. POP, or Profiles of Politicians, will spotlight "hopefuls" and allow McHenry Republicans to select their favorites for the 1968 primary. Richard B. Ogilvie will be the speaker at the dinner.

When the French explored the Mississippi fifty years later, the Indians fed them pork from the descendants of DeSoto's original hogs. Swine Production The University of Illinois Department of Animal Science is sponsoring a Swine Production seminar, Dec. 6-7, in Champaign. Participants can select four subject matter areas from six offered: Production Program efficiency; Energy Source and Use; Feeds and Feeding; P a c k e r P r e f e r e n c e ; Reproduction; Water and Its Use. Dairy At the recent McHenry-Lake Dairy Herd Improvement association meeting, the six high herds were recognized. They are Robert J. Gerloff, Woodstock, Robert L. Peter­ son, Hebron, James C. Kagel, Woodstock, Robert Hunter, Aotioeh, ;vl*)Qhi\ Eggum Farm, Woodstock, and Charles Weingart, McHenry. The annual meeting had about 190 in attendance. Bob Brennan, Jr., of Solon Mills, the banquet speaker, told of his experiences as an exchangee to Russia in 1976. High Moisture Corn Less field loss, longer harvest season and cheaper storage and handling are some ad­ vantages of harvesting corn -at higher than normal levels. Cows like it and , given op­ portunity, will eat large quantities of it. Silos too small for forage storage can be used to store high-moisture corn on some farms. Dairymen can use a mold inhibitor, such as propionic acid, to help keep high-moisture corn in good condition. It should be ground before feeding to milking cows. For those going this route, they must make allowances for the extra water in the high- moisture corn fed to milking cows. About 1.2 pounds of good quality corn at 30 percent moisture equals one pound of No. 2 corn at 15 percent moisture. 25 Cafeehlsfs Are Honored By Bishop O'Neill At a ceremony held at Saint Peter cathedral, Rockford, Sept. 18, Bishop Arthur J.
