Wonder Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 Register For Soccer League For the past four years, the Woodstock Parks and Recreation department has offered the children of our area a chance to play organized soccer. This sport caught on so quickly, each year the number of children and teams has increased. This year* there are plans for four teams at each age ,level of play. The first category is for second and third grade; then, fourth and fifth; and the last category is for sixth, seventh, and eighth* graders. > Registration takes place at the Court House Annex building in Woodstock each weekday until Aug. 14. After that date, no more registrations will be ac­ cepted; Any boy or girl from Woodstock or the surrounding area, which includes both the east and west sides of Wonder Lake, &re invited to join a team. The registration fee is slightly higher for non­ residents of Woodstock. Each player receives a tee- shirt designating his team. WONDER WOODS AUXILIARY The ladies of Wonder Woods subdivision are a busy group. They meet on the second Wednesday of each month for a luncheon meeting which usually is held in the home of Marge Evans, secretary of the subdivision. The ladies take turns being responsible for the menu of the day, enabling them to not only discuss business, but also to enjoy each other's cooking skills. Jean Clause president of the Auxiliary, keeps them all busy planning social events of the subdivision. They are now making plans for the annual picnic, which is always enjoyed by most of the residents. Any ladies froirt the subdivision, who would be interested in jQjtajing the , group, can give Marge Evans a call. She would be delighted to hear from you, v PEW REMOVAL By a decision of thfe . council, some pepivs were removed from the back of the church. It was stAted that there were three reasons for doing this; 1) To ^ have people seated closer together during worship so that the singing and spoken responses would sound aS one group instead of several individuals. 2) The Sunday school could use the space . for their classes. 3) It would give more room for people to congregate after worship services. Some members of the congregation were not in favor of the pew removal, so the council gave them a chance to vote on the decision June 8. The results will be forthcoming. Six young men and women from the congregation were confirmed May 25. They are: Todd Borchardt, Rogdr Gonzalez, Kevin Moore, Anthony Simon, Dina Sturm, and Holly Tyrrell.

Of course everyone thinks they have the most special dad, which is the way it should be, but sometimes the men in our lives are taken for granted. The long hours of work instead of being able to sit in their easy chair, struggling to put away money for their college bound students, and, later their own retirement, are only a few of their jobs. There's a saying, "Any man can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a Dad". Happy Father's day to my dad, who really fits that saying and to all the other dads of Wonder Lake, who are just-as important to their children as mine is to me.

In the final month-fSf the 1980 school year, students af Saint John the Baptist school, Johnsburg, par­ ticipated in the Easter Seal Society for McHenry County's first Spell-a-thon. Sister Vi, principal, en­ dorsed the Spell-a-thon as a worthwhile event for her students because it en­ couraged them to work on their spelling skills while at the same time helped to raise funds for the crippled children and adults of McHenry county. Students began by securing sponsors who pledged money based on number of words spelled correctly. During the spelling week a series of written tests and a final oral spelling bee were conducted. After the spelling was completed, students returned to their sponsors to receive the pledged amounts. An award ceremony was held on the grounds of the school. Prizes of a choice of knapsack or bookbag were awarded to the best speller and the most money raiser in each class. Grand prize winner was little Cindy Krol of Kathy Haog's first grade class. Cindy won a portable AM- FM radio and collected $38.05 in pledges for the 21 words she spelled correctly. All the children who participated had fun spelling and have the satisfaction of knowing they helped others. The money raised, totaling $145.41, will be used for continuation of services to the disabled children and adults of McHenry county. Ask Area Exclusion From Give School Physical Vehicle Emission Check Immunization Rules McHenry high school reminds all incoming students for both East and West campuses of the Illinois Health Department's requirements concerning physicals and immunization, Illinois revised school code mandates that all school children be protected and in compliance yrith the im­ munization regulations before entering school the first time. All students must show written evidence from a medical doctor of physical and a full set of im­ munizations. If students report to school without immunizations, they must be excluded from school if not in compliance. Students entering the ninth grade must have at least five doses of DPT or TB; four doses of trivalent oral polio; irubella (German measles) immunization; anc| rubeola (hard, measles) im-- munization, dated after 1968. Mumps immunization is highly recommended and will probably be mandated in the near future. Children will be excluded from school until their ninth grade physicals and im­ munization records are signed by a licensed doctor and turned into the school in order to comply with Illinois state law. 4-H Looks For Campers nuvifc If you like to hike, walk in the woods, or just sit on a creek bank and try your luck at catching a whopper, come to 4-H camp this summer. You can do all of this and much, much more. The nature area of Shaw- waw-nas-see 4-H camp would like to invite you to come and walk explore caves or go rockhopping this summer. 4- H camp gives you an op­ portunity to do all of this plus other activities in recreation and handicrafts. So, come and visit us a week this summer and really see the outdoors as it was in the time of Chief Shaw-waw- nas-see. You'd be surprised at how it has changed.

The Illinois En­ vironmental Protection agency has announced it will recommend to the Illinois Pollution Control board that the western townships of McHenry and Kane counties and the southern townships of Will county be excluded from the motor vehicle emission inspection program being proposed for northeastern Illinois. The recommendation will be formally submitted to the board as planned in June for adoption along with the other regulations that are needed to administer the program. A commitment was made by the agency to the United states Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) last December to propose regulations by Aug. 1, 1980. "After reassessing the cost and benefits of requiringjemission testing in the low vehicle densi ty areas as we had originally planned and after discussing it with- state legislators, we decided to pull in the boundaries," said Daniel J. Goodwin, manager, Division of Air Pollution Control. " "When we discussed this boundary change with representatives of the USEPA, they indicated that it was acceptable to exclude the rural areas but that the urban areas must remain in the program." Vehicle inspection- maintenance programs are required by the federal government in all metropolitan areas of the nation that will still have automobile-related air quality health standard violations by the end of 1982. The northeastern Illinois and East St. Louis metropolitan areas both have violations of the ozone and carbon monoxide health standards and projections indicate those violations will persist beyond 1982. Inspection - maintenance refers to the process of having the exhaust of a motor vehicle analyzed at an inspection station to determine the amount of pollution the vehicle is emitting. The emissions are then compared to a set standard. If the vehicle fails the test, then it is required to have maintenance or repair work done to lower the exhaust emissions to an acceptable limit. The USEPA has been closely monitoring the state's progress ^towards establishing an inspection program because federal law mandates that sanctions must be imposed in areas that need the program but fail to implement it. The sanctions include a freeze on issuing permits to industry to build or modify plants in the area needing the inspection program. The USEPA could'order a cut-off of federal highway funds and sewage treatment grants as well as grants to state and l o c a l e n v i r o n m e n t a l programs. In the six-county area, this could mean the loss of $300 million in high­ way funds over the next three years. • • ROAMING . . .
