ILLINOIS MMFOftTM WOODSTOCK, ILLINOIS HI. 33S-314A FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the flies of December 24, 1931) The McHenry Community high school was broken into and robbed. Entrance to the building was gained through a basement window and two doors were broken open before the office and safe were reached. About fifty dollars was taken by the robbers who, it is thought, belong to a gang that has been working through high schools in this distirct. Sheriff Lester Edinger staged a raid which resulted in the confiscation of a quantity of home brew and alcohol. Armed with search warrants the "spoftge squad" from the sheriff's office dropped in on several places. The yuletide spirit reigned in the spacious K. of C. hall when the Catholic Daughters of America entertained about 150 children at their annual Christmas children's party. Floyd E. Covalt, Jr., of St. John's Military academy, was again honored when at the annual pre-holiday banquet, he was promoted to the rank of first lieutenant of Co. A.

DAILY 9 to 9 SUNDAY 10 to 6 Rt. 47 & Country Club Rd Rte. 120 - McHenry 4400 W Woodstock FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of December 25, 1941) The curtain will soon descend upon the year 1941, which in many ways has been the most momentous of several decades, and we will start the year 1942 with new dreams and new hopes. Only a year ago we watched with mingled feelings the development of the second World War in Europe. This year, although we are ourselves in the throes of the war, our sympathy is still extended to those nations whose plight is even greater than our own. Frbm^LH. "Well, Marion Krause broke the high game record for ladies on the Schaefer alleys with a 268 game in a 600 series. Congrats!" The McHenry Warriors registered their eighth straight victory as they outpointed Richmond by a score of 54-37. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of December 20, 1956) The public very decisively expressed themselves at five voting precincts in the McHenry high school district as being opposed to a $290,000 bond issue which would have provided a swimming pool to the new addition to the school. The vote was 542 against the issue and 224 in favor. All the colorful lights which brighten the yuletide season will not be confined to Christmas trees, according to R.C. Zahn, telephone manager here. Christmas Eve will start the"" little green, red and amber lights on the long-distance swit­ chboards flashing faster and longer than ever before. The number of toll calls placed and received by residents of McHenry will hit record holiday heights. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of December 31, 1971) The First Baptist church has called an additional staff member to aid in its multiple ministries to the community of McHenry and the surrounding areas. The Reverend Joe O'Neal has accepted the position of youth director and assistant pastor for the church. D u r i n g m i d n i g h t Christmas Eve services at the Chain O'Dakes Evangelical Covenant church on Wilmot road, unknown persons entered every unlocked car in the parking lot. However, the only item missing from the autos was an overcoat taken from the Cal Linquist car. The McHenry County Planning commission read a letter from Anthony Cor­ coran, administrator of McHenry hospital, in­ dicating plans would con­ tinue toward a regional health park complex in the area. The letter said zoning would be requested on a piece of property located on Rt. 31,2l/2 miles northeast of Crystal Lake. The facility calls for an initial 400-bed hospital and facilities for the Mental Health clinic, Pioneer Center for the Retarded and possibly others that might desire to share the facilities.
