BROWNIES GO CAMPING-Pictvred above in front of the chalet at Shabbona Hlills from let to right are Julie Etten, Barbie Martin, Sheila Roy, Denise Henderson and Amy Bisiewicz. Itwas a special treat for members of Brownie Troop 461 when they recently went on an overnight cam- trip at Shabbona Hills Girl Scout ip at Harvard. This was a Learn- tfrEarn badges experience for these girfs of third grade. Oh Friday, before starting the trip, they all went shopping at a local grocery store to buy food needed for the weekend They made their own selections and tried to learn the value of different products. At the campsite, the girls had to learn how to start camp fires and prepare meals, the use of a pocket kfme and eight basic outdoor skills. Ttffe first challenge was for the girls to start their fire using only one match. Ttiis was difficult because of a very strtJng wind blowing, but three girls stfcceeded - Barbie Martin, Denise Henderson and Amy Bisiewicz - tfHfch proves they built their fires well. •'* *>- -- To learn safety with knives, they each had a large bar of soap to whittle out an object. No camping trip is complete without a long hike and the girls' hike had a dual purpose--to enjoy the scenery and find wood for campfires. They also discovered many animal tracks. Because of wet ground, they had to make a detour from the trail and ended ud lumping a small creek with no one falling in. >I^T UNITED METHOD] •• WOMEN MEET The Ringwood U.M.W. will meet Thursday, May 13, In the home of Mertie Harrison* on N.

State Scholarship/ Support To 4,000 Area Students BOOSTING "FAIR LADY" "To the Editor: "All learning does not take place in the classroom and all teams sre not on the athletic field. This was demon­ strated this past weekend when East and West McHenry' high school presented the play, "My Fair Lady", with a cast of 35 actors. 28 members in the choruses snd dancing groups. 25 in the production staff, and 19 in the orchestra. This team made of its components presented a most delightful rendition of this famous play. "It is remarkable the amount of talent that was d)pplayed in this group of teenagers Ipis also remarkable that the faculty directors were able to bring out the obvious as well as the latent talent in their students so ef­ fectively The faculty should be given / the highest praise and commendation. "The students learned much by taking part in the play. Among many other things they learned cooperation, responsibility, timing, and that they * had talents they didn't know they had. 'There seemed to be nothing missing. The stage was most at­ tractive. th<» choreography was very good, and the music was a delight. My only wish was that all people who have a chip on their shoulders about teenagers were present. Perhaps they would have been given a dif­ ferent slant i extend my contratulations to this team I thought the play was great! • "Clarence Anglese - "1412 N Green street" More than 4,000 students residing in the 33rd legislative district are receiving state scholarship support, according to Senator Jack Schaffer, R-Cary.
