No. 1 in the Fox Valley Area Copyright 1978 FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 19, 1929) Autumn entered into her own Tuesday night when the first frost of the season made its appearance and nipped some of the more tender flowers and garden vegetables. The night was clear and cold with a bright moon shedding its cold rays over the earth, making the night an ideal one for the ap­ pearance of Jack Frost, whose arrival was not wholly ex­ pected. Here's.hoping that autumn and Jack Frost will bring the Indian summer, whose warm days are enjoyed before the arrival of colder winter weather.

Although every session was well attended, the largest number of visitors were present for the evening session, with 182 members present to witness the ritualistic w6tk in the initiation of thirteen can­ didates. FORTY YEARS AGOt (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 28, 1939) Added enthusiasm was created at the regular meeting of the McHenry Lions club, held at the Karls dining room, when it was announced by the president,'A.E. Nye, that the club has more new members already signed up and many prospects of membership. Owners of Lake Defiance, a private lake, stocked their favorite fishing spot with some 20,000 little fishies. There were about 2,000 bluegills and croppies-the rest were bass. The Shamrocks gave the McHenry nine quite a tussle on the local diamond. The buckeroos from Irish Prairie collected only four hits^ but they got the same number of runs. George Larkin, batting against his brother, Jim, led the McHenry attack with a double and ~ two singles. However, Jim managed to hold the rest of the .lineup (with the exception of Bennett) in hand. The score was 9 to 4 in favor of McHenry. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sept. 16, 1954) McHenry's lady pilot, Miss Florence Lacy, daughter of Col. and Mrs. Herman Lacy who reside southwest of the city, won a beautiful trophy for being the outstanding pilot of the sixth annual meet of the "99's" held at DuPage airport, near Wayne. Miss Lacy was also recognized with large trophies for winning firist place in bomb dropping, first place in the private pilot spot landing and a third place trophy for being co-pilot on the 100-mile cross couhtry run.

TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 19, 1969) iowfiw? At its Sept. 11 meeting, the Lakemoor village board ap­ proved a Police Protection Tax ordinance for the purpose of 0 providing more adequate coverage for residents of the community. Two special police officers were appointed during the'meeting, Herman Freeman and Richard Wolf. The first order of business at the McHenry City Council meeting was the passage of an ordinance prohibiting posting bills and signs on utility poles, trees, buildings and other places. It was a trip of several thousand miles that brought Ena (Nena) Meza from her home in Peru to McHenry, but arrived safely at O'Hare air­ port to be met by her family- for-a-year, the William Lingenfelters. The Warrior thinclads continued their happy winning pace this last week' with an impressive victory in triangular held at Dundee, beating the host school 19-38 and winning over always tough Crystal Lake, 22-23.
