Wonder Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 Father-Son Cub Scout Bake Off Great Success One of the hardest decisions I have had to make in some time was recently put, not on my shoulders, but in my mouth and eyes. Thursday night, March 22, Mr. Ed O'Brien, fire chief of Company One, and I were the judges in a father-son bake off held at the monthly meeting of Pack 145. This is an annual event, and talent scouts from all the nearby bakeries should have attended. There were twenty cakes on display, baked and decorated totally by the fathers and sons. I had thought they would be typical layer cakes, but was I in for a surprise! The most original cake was one that looked like a puzzle of the United States. Each state was individually decorated and placed in the puzzle, right down to each of the Hawaiian Islands. This was made by Mike and Chris Stolle. First place went to David and Tom Murray, who created a Flinstone scene, with a house and even the Flinstone's car. Second place tasted delicious with a pudding frosting covered with coconut decorating a rabbit. It was made by Steve and Siegfried Peter. Joe and Steve Liggett created a beautiful flag. The red and white stripes were done with tiny star shaped frosting. It received third place. If we had our way, Mr. O'Brien and I would have picked all twenty as winners. The time put in on the cakes must have been hours. There was a castle with miniature marshmallows lending to a brick effect, a lion, a cute dog, a train, a Cub Scout cap, and a pinewood derby race track with three cars. It was un­ believable! After the judging, the cakes were auctioned off with the proceeds going to the Pack. Other events of the evening were the awarding of some pins by the scout leader, Tom O'Brien. Chris Stolle received two Silver Arrows; Dan Pend- zynski, a one year pin; and Chris Churchill one Silver Arrow. Mike Johnson and Randy Moore received Webelos Badges. Individual skits were in­ troduced by the Webelo leader Roger Moore. Those par­ ticipating were: Steve Liggett, John Chesler, Brian Nutter, David Murray, Mike Johnson, and Randy Moore. The 1979 Scout show, "The Wonderful World of Scouting", will take place April 21, at the McHenry county fairgrounds from 1 to 8 p.m. Fifty percent of the ticket sales will go to the Pack; so Mr. Dominic Iodice encouraged the parents to help their sons with ticket sales. SPRING ARRIVAL March 20 not only marked the arrival of spring, but the arrival of a daughter to James and Linda Mazan of Deep Springs. She has been named April. What better name for a spring time little girl! She weighed 7 lbs., 14 oz., and was 20 inches in length. Maternal grandparents are Don and Arlene Buss, formerly of Wonder Lake, who now live in Cottonwood, Arizona. , Paternal grandparents are Wally and Flo Mazan of Wonder Lake. KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION For those residents on the southeast side of Wonder Lake, Landmark school asked me to announce that McHenry school district 15, will be having kindergarten registration and screening from March 26 to April 4. It will take place at Zion Lutheran church, 4206 W. Route 120, in McHenry. Completion of a registration form, parent interview, and educational screening are required for all children who will be entering kindergarten this fall. This is dorte by ap­ pointment only.

ANNIVERSARY DINNER Final plans for the Young At Hearts anniversary dinner were discussed at the March 21 meeting held in Christ the King church hall. The dinner will be held April 18, at one oNour local restaurants. The club is looking ahead to summer by planning a picnic to be held July 11, at Petersen Park in McCullom Lake.

"The Spirit of America" airshow team will be flying at "Expo II" June 2-3 at Lakehurst Shopping center at Waukegan. In addition, there will be an exhibit and contest in the Mall for any builder of a radio-controlled model aircraft wishing to enter the com­ petition. McHenry has numerous model plane enthusiasts who will be participating. The rules and entry blanks will be published in the near future and will be available throughout the Lake, Cook, and McHenry county areas or upon request. Radio control, or"RC" as it is called by those who par­ ticipate. mans just what it says: control by radio. An RC model, typically with a five-foot WI DXKSIIAY, MARCH 28,1979 wingspan and flying at speeds of from 50 mph to over 100 mph, is controlled from the ground by a hand-held, miniaturized, transmitting statiojMAat sends out from one to 12 channels of information. The "pilot" on the ground, sends these command signals to his airborne model which contains a receiver less than half the size of a package of cigarettes. The model is one on which the builder spends from several weeks to several months constructing. Along with the receiver the model contains some highly miniaturized control actuators, called 4'servos,' that receive switching signals from the receiver to drive the proper control sur­ face to the right position. Other functions modelers use their receivers and servos to com' mand are such units as retracting landing gear, steerable nose wheel, flaps, and wheel brakes. RC models can do everything and more that a full-szie air­ craft can do. Their ability to do more stems from the fact that there is no real pilot aboard, so maneuvers need not be limited within the human physical ability to withstand Explained Someone has assured the country thafMh*- dollar st i l l contains 10 dimes and 20 nickles. The problem isn ' t change, but ex change. -Post . Dcnvei vr£j Cheese Consumption Since 1965, cheese consumption has increased by about 70 per cent. Consumption in the U.S. ex­ ceeded 16 pounds per person last year. V The McHenry Medicol Group announces the association of JOSEPH S.
