PAGE IS - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, SEPTF.MBER 30. 1977 FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 29, 1927) Albin Anderson, son of John Anderson, left Saturday morning for Cambridge, Mass., where he will enter Harvard college. Because of his remarkable average of A minus at the Northwestern university last year, Albin will be awarded a scholarship for Harvard college, where he will study law. This is an out­ standing honor and wonderful opportunity for this young man for there are only two or three scholarships awarded by the Harvard dub in Chicago each year and Albin is to be congratulated upon receiving one. Walter Anderson, brother of Albin, left the first of the week for New York City, where he will enter the Grand Central school of art and enroll in the course of commercial art. He has just completed a two-year course at the Academy of Fine Arts in Chicago and will go to New York to complete his studies. The weather this week has been anything but favorable for the building of roads as the rain brought the work to a halt for the time being. However, last week the pouring of concrete was commenced on the un­ finished half of the roadway on Route 20, leading up to the mill pond bridge. The pouring of concrete was continued on Route 61, north of McHenry, and was progressing rapidly before the rain commenced. Work has also started on Route 61, south of McHenry, and the first grading was done on Saturday of last week. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 30, 1937) G.G. Reed, athletic coach and teacher at the Community high ichool, spent the summer in Russia, where he had many interesting experiences and took many valuable pictures. Mr. Reed kindly consented to tell us something about this intriguing country, its people and its customs in a series of articles for the paper. He states that visitors to Soviet Russia in 1937 find a country that is a veritable beehive of industry. For the second Five-Year plan is well under way and the whole nation is building with frenzied zeal. The enthusiasm and energy that the entire population exhibits for this construction program is little short of amazing. There will be a display of musical instruments at the high school Friday afternoon and evening to which the public is invited. The instruments are from a Chicago firm and can be rented by the students if they desire. Everyone interested is invited to visit the high school Friday and view these in­ struments. A dance for the benefit of the football team of the Community high school will be given at the Fox pavilion one week from Saturday night, Oct. 9. Proceeds from this dance will go into a fund to defray ex­ penses of the team on their trip to Kansas. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of October 9, 1952) The eighth grade class at Johnsburg submitted the grand prize winning poster in the contest conducted in connection with Fire Prevention week by the Fire department, Chamber of Commerce, American Legion and V.F.W. posts and will be given an award for the accomplishment of the students responsible for the drawing.

The Johnsburg Tigers put their game on ice, then had to step up and win it all over again last Sunday as the Algonquin Simplex Ironers came to the Tigers camp to start the finals of the county league play-offs. The Tigers won 8-7, but 'twasn't easy. It was the manager, Art Jackson, who drove home the winning run with two out in the ninth. And it was the manager who tied the score in the second inning with a two-run blast over the fence in left center field. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Oc­ tober 4, 1967) Three little words, NOW TWICE WEEKLY, have resulted in increased activity within the Plaindealer office with the publication of a semi- weekly newspaper starting this week. McHenry's City Council awarded a contract to the low bidder, Lakeland Construction Company, Inc., Mondav night for the resurfacing and im­ provements of Green street, north from Elm street, in­ cluding short stretches on Pearl and Washington streets. Lakeland Construction bid $24,192.30 Melahn Construction Co. of Algonquin $27,948.60, and Zimmerman & Kahler, Inc. of Huntley $29,010.34. . Following petiiton for an­ nexation, an ordinance was passed which brings lots along the southerly side of Lillian street into the ̂ city. > - - ^ MayofDoherty signed the proclamation which officially established the week Oct. 1 through Oct. 7 as Lions week for tlfe Visually Handicapped, with special emphasis on Candy Day For The blind on Friday, Oct. 6.

The first was Ihfr late Ruth Barger, his tnfcttfnal grandmother who was a long time member at the time of her death more than ten years ago. The second was his mother, Donna Barger Jensen, who with her husband, Ray Jensen, Sr., are present members. The club has had one other family with the same distinc­ tion. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Weber were members of the club when it was formed in the fall of 1940. Their three children, Jean Neumann, Joan Murphy and Bill Weber, have all been members at one time, the sisters as accompanists. Mrs. Murphy's daughter, Maureen, was a member last year. At Monday's meeting, the membership elected John Johnson to his fourth year as president. Other officers were also reelected as follows: Mary Ann Wegener, vice-president; Allan Cook, treasurer; Carol Jean Smith, Michele Reining and Esther Walter, secretaries. Pat Mayer serves the club as librarian. Deadline for membership to participate in the December program is Monday, Oct. 3. Meetings are held at 8 p.m. in the East campus music room. A special invitation is ex­ tended 1977 graduates who were participants in the music programs of area high schools. • • • • A compromise, to ' some people, is an oppor­ tunity for the other side to surrender.

The fair had been held for many years before World War II but faded away before the 1940's. In 1946 Bill Tammeus, farm adviser at the time, and other 4-H people instituted a 4-H show at the McHenry county fairgrounds. This was held for three years, and in 1949, the group organized a fair association, established by-laws and organized a fair. An organization, a 4-H town, was formed to serve as a non­ profit group to sign a 99-year lease with the McHenry County board for the land that is located at route 47 and Calhoun street, Woodstock. Since then the Fair board has purchased additional land to meet the needs of an expanding .fair. Today the fair attracts over 70,000 people and is presented five days in early August. Past presidents include Einar Bakkom, 1949-50; Mark Hansen, 1951-52; Henry Marlowe, 1953-56; Lyle Paulsen, 1957-58; Loren Massey, 1959-60; Carl Bault, 1961-63; Don Hansen, 1964-70; and Charles Weingart, 1971-77, the present president. Slate Talented Young Pianist For Recital Pianist Mark Cappelli will appear in recital Sunday, Oct. 2, at the First Methodist church in Crystal Lake.

Mark is the recipient of many awards, including the Junior, Intermediate, and Senior divisions of the Society of American Musicians' piano competitions. Upon his graduation from Oak Park- River forest high school, he received a scholarship from Indiana university, Chicago Musical Arts club, and Mac- dowell Artists association.

The prografo will begin at 3 p.m. $330 Raised In Club Pop Bottle Drive The pop bottle drive of the Johnsburg Junior high school Outdoor club (I.O.C.), held Sept. 10, raised over $330 for the club. This money will be used to help finance a six-day canoe trip to the Current river of southeastern Missouri and for the purchase of camping equipment. Pop bottles have been the basic financial support that enabled the J.O.C. to function for the past three years. Ac­ tivities have included six six- day canoe trips in Missouri, four five-day cross-country ski trips in northern Wisconsin, the purchase of enough ski equipment to outfit ten students, the purchase of one canoe, and the development of a student run elementary education program.
