Archie the cockroach used to write long letters about his life and times to writer Don Marquis by landing head first on the typewriter keys. Archie often spoke of the difficulty of making a living if people kept everything swept up and complained bitterly about the compulsive neatness of some humans. One can only hope that Marquis washed his hands a lot after typing (and publishing Archie's poems and memoirs in a book called "Archie and Mehitabel") because, all whimsy aside, unfortunately, insects like Archie are the carriers, or vectors as they are sometimes called, of bacteria t|iat can cause serious disease. Water, food, rodents, and inanimate objects are also the culprit carriers of disease causing bacteria - although rodents and insects may seldom be seen, they are very efficient vectors and man has fought against sharing his home and food with them since ages past, and for good reason Insects transport all kinds of diseases: --mosquitoes can carry malaria, yellow fever, dengue, St. Louis encephalitis and filariasis. -Fleas can carry plague and endemic typhus from rats; -and the hu^an body louse can carry epidemic typhus Flies, cockroaches and other insects and rodents can also contaminate poultry and meat products with Salmonella bacteria which causes a serious form of food poisoning or diarrhea if the flood is im properly cooked The bacteria are often present in the intestinal tract of the salughtered animal or bird and careless processing or slaughtering operations can also cause contamination. Three ways to control Salmonella bacteria are to protect food from being con­ taminated by insects; prevent the poultry or animal carcass from being contaminated by fecal material in the intestinal tract and cook poultry and meat products thoroughly. Twice a year, the McHenry County Health department staff inspects all restaurants and food preparation busineses - inspection of some places is done more often when there is cause to think the management is not as careful about con­ tamination as it could be. If any evidence of the presence of rodents or insects is found in a place where food is prepared, the management is expected to take immediate steps to correct the situation. If public health is threatened in any place where food is prepared by insect or rodent vectors of disease, the place is closed by the Health depart­ ment until the danger is removed. People have the right to expect the food they buy to be free from contamination and they have come to rely on the County Health Department for the kind of careful and regular inspection that prevents con­ tamination. Prevention is the best kind of cure for the kind of bugs that Archie and his friends carry around with them FORMAL WEAR RENTALS for ALL OCCASIONS &S(t SStwal ....tfo dm km 1214 N. Greea St..

Guide To Travel By Gojan Nikolich (Short trip to Victorian Opera House) Orson Wells understandably thumbed deeply into his Purple Prose dictionary when he lauded Woodstock's Victorian aura as being akin to an old fashioned "wax-flower tree under a bell of glass." Fawning eagerly over the* rural McHenry county countryside, the former town resident and struggling local actor also blushed over another Wood­ stock mainstay-its 1890's Opera house, a community enterprise that's fast becoming a northern Illinois theater mecca and travel destination. Less a dusty relic than it is a functioning cutlet for prime professional theater events, the restored landmark highlights a complete roster of shows throughout the year. % "Last year we went beyond our expectations," ssys Opera house director, Douglas Rankin, in describing Wood­ stock's first theater season since restoration was com­ pleted. Now recognized by the National Register of Historic Places, the Opera house was also recently awarded a design plaudit by the American In­ stitute of Architects. "We're scheduling plays according to seasons. Summer, fall and winter--each will offer something different," ac­ cording to Rankin, who adds that total price tag on the painstaking restoration process approached $500,000. What Woodstock residents received for that price, however, turned out to be a composit theater and community center used for both show attractions as well as private meetings by townfolk. With its imposing stone block exterior overlooking a carefully landscaped town square, the historic theater building boasts a rich history. Among famous alumni-some of whom have returned for guest appearances-of the Opera house are Shelly Ber- man, Tom Bosley, Geraldine Page, Betsy Palmer and Lois Nettleton. Paul Newman also shuffled across the old stage and performed to the 430-seat auditorium; he and his fellow Goodman theater artists came from Chicago in 1949 to organize what was then called the Woodstock Players. Nostalgic Orson Wells was a rookie thespian during the 1930's when he attended a local Woodstock private school and performed at the Opera house. For weekenders traveling to Woodstock, here's what to expect during the current summer professional theater season: "Two for the See Saw "» Opens Aug. 3, through Aug. 19. The play's twentieth an­ niversary will be celebrated with this current production directed by Ken Frankel, present director of the Dallas Shakespeare festival. Expect some funny scenes in this one, as well as a touch of the bit­ tersweet as a Kansas country lawyer decides to chuck his rural lifestyle and opt for the more urban dazzle of New York City. "She Stoops to Conquer "--the University of Chicago's Court theater brings this restoration comedy set in 18th century England to Woodstock; lots of buffoonery and laughs Scheduled for one weekend only, Sept. 29-30. Opera house performances during the summer are slated for Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:15 p.m., and Wednesday and Friday afternoons at 1:30. Ticket in­ formation is available by calling; 815-338-5300. Woodstock's historical wealth, its endearing legacy has a few brightly humorous moments, too.

"It was strictly hometown talent," he says, recalling the time back in the 1930's when he performed as a spear-carrying extra in Shakespear's ^Hamlet." Orson Wells, yet ^established as a well-known actor, performed the starring role. "I was supposed to jump over a wall carrying the spear, which was made of rubber," says Beth. "Well, I came over alright but mv toe hooked in something ana I hit Mr. Wells with the spear." Where did you poke him? "Where he normally sits." End of acting career. Theatrics in Woodstock weren't always limited to the stage. Some of them took place at the old McHenry county courthouse, now a refurbished building featuring a complex of shops and dining facilities. Built in 1857, the old cour­ thouse and jail once hosted some of America's most prominent crooks. During the 1920's Dapper Dan McCarthy and fellow bootlegger, Earle Weiss, took up residence in the Woodstock slammer; a few years later, in 1832, Donald "Lone Wolf" Loftus laid his bank robbing skijls to rest and was jailed at the courthouse building. And in the true spirit of thespian chicanery, there was Frank "Red" McGee, who sawed his way out of the Woodstock jail during the holidays and was kind enough to leave behind a Christmas card. Another well-known figure, unionist and social spokesman. Eugene V. Debs, also served time in the building now known more for its cuisine and shopping than its spartan former life as a prison Woodstock's central square, a lush maze of cobbled walks and gardens surrounding a Civil War monument and 19th century gazebo, was also the scene of McHenry county's one and only hanging. The public was invited on that day in 1886 to see Chicago hood James Dacy's heels swing. Weekend visitors can also browse through over a dozen local antique shops, most of them within walking distance of the square.
