Name Woman Of Year Oct. 22 PAGE 9 - PLAINDEALEE-FRIDAY. OCTOBER t». 1»7» The much anticipated an* nouncement of the 1979 Woman of the Year in McHenry will highlight the tenth anniversary' dinner meeting of the McHenry Business and Professional Women's club next Monday, Oct. 22. Dinner at Raymond's restaurant in Johnsburg follows 6:30 cocktails. Several deserving women have been nominated for the award. The decision will be made by the Public Relations committee. During the past month, ballot sheets were " placed in the various business places and the response was said to be rewarding. Also a feature of the evening will be a dramatic presentation by Susan B. Anthony, in, the person of Barbara Rowe. October marks the tenth miversary of the McHenry B.FSJV In the early spring of the help of the Woodstock JfcR«JjV^s.twenty-five members .chartered the McHenry club. Lenora Frisby served as the club's first president, and also published the monthly bulletin, which she continues to do. The meetings are held on the third Monday of each month with the exception of October, and feature a dif­ ferent speaker and restaurant each time. - The club sponsors two scholarships each year, has fund raising functions and social affairs for friends and members. There is a con­ tinuous display on a bulletin board at the public library, the present feature being the National Business Women's week poster. The program next Monday featuring Ms. Rowe promises lo be an exciting one. Actress Barbara Rowe in association with Elizabeth Riotto, writer, both of Elmhurst, have combined their considerable talents to recreate the figure of Susan B. Anthony, the 19th century giant who spent her life working for human rights. Congress voted to engrave, her likeness on the new dollar coin and she becomes the first woman in U.S. history so honored. The state of Illinois has declared her birthday a commemorative holiday to be honored in all public schools. Born in 1820 and raised in a Quaker household, she began her career as a reformer in abolition and temperance causes, but she soon discovered that the restrictions placed upon her as a woman defeated her efforts for reform. In 1852 she turned her un­ surpassed executive talents to woman's rights and labored unceasingly for them until her death in 1906. Although she lived to see many of her high hopes realized; women in professions, women in universities, women in business and women as property owners, she died still unable to exercise her constitutional right to vote. Since her first appearance in February, Ms. Rowe has carried her message to the governor's mansion in Springfield, to Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan and Iowa. She has been seen as well throughout Illinois and featured in Chicago newspapers, radio and television. In this season, traveling Tammy Justen Pom-Pon Moderator At Qulncy College Tammy Justen, a senior Psychology major at Quincy college, has been selected as the college Pom-Pon moderator. Tammy is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Freund, 819 N. Green street, McHenry. southward, eastward and westward as she did in years gone by, Miss Anthony, in the person of Barbara Rowe, will be reminding citizens in this day and age of the long hard struggle that already has taken place, and in her usual em­ phatic manner, using her rightful prerogative of ad­ vanced years, lovingly scolds this "younger generation" for their less than total efforts to secure equal rights for all.
