PAGE 4 CI,At*DEALER - WEDNESDAY. JUNE », IKZ bAKL WALSH So I Hear ' • Patting for^a cause isn't my idea of a way to win. Why not eat and have the strength to fight? --And those gals chained together in Springfield aren't using the right approach. No doubt, they have a good cause, but will have to find better ways to swing the vote. Being referred to as a "Chain Gang" doesn't gain respect which womanhood deserves. - Maybe the girls need new leader­ ship. ;• ' ? After feeling proud of losing 3 pounds in 3 weeks, somebody sent me an ad saying I can lose 40 pounds in 20 dsys. 40 pounds! Me and my shadow. Overlapping sports seasons leave me cold. Basketball in June strikes a wrong note. With a new league, we may have football in spring-time. That makes more sense than baseball in cold, wet weather. The Cubs and Sox have both suf­ fered miserably, causing fans to wonder what is wrong. 1 can tell you one thing that is wrong and you can take if from there Both teams have better centerfielders on the bench than they have on the field. -- ( Competition in this news office is getting stronger. As if that front page column and Marie's Twice Told Tales weren't enough, now comes Betty Smith and her Society Page to give us a headache Betty is going to be hard to live with since some lady came in and told her the society page is all she reads That's a revollip' development We know the sports section is popular And readers let us know they think reports of City Council proceedings make juicy reading. Saw this bumper sticker: "SUPPORT BINGO KEEP GRANDMA OFF THE STREETS." Joe Wagner says it was his brother- in-law, "The Boy Scout", who made all the cracks about taking Harry Cary back to the Sox. Maybe so, but Joe hasn't been exactly silent on the subject Did you ever look at the obituary column and feel let down because you didn't find a familiar name listed? I was never gung ho on statistics, but must say a lady had me puzzled when she remarked that 0 out of 5 drivers are women. I'm working on that one. Twas a happy crowd at the Dave and Karen Kent home Saturday night as we celebrated two graduations. Paul graduated from high school and Kathy finished eighth grade. • We might term those kids our adopted grandchildren. It has been with interest that we watched them grow. We will keep watching and wishing them the bat. Sunday brought another kind of celebration. "Marty" and Helen Conway have been married 50 years. < Family and friends gathered in St. Patrick's Church hall to honor the bride and groom The first thing Helen told us was that "Zeke" had phoned them the night before from Tucson. They were pleased It was a great chance to meet and greet friends we haven't seen in many a moon. A popular and pleasant couple are "Marty" and Helen. We wish them many more healthful and happy days. My heart jumped as I received a notice that seemed to say I won Ave thousand dollars. Reading on, I learned I have a "chance" to win. They probably meant - fat chance. Set License Plate Deadline Secretary of State Jim Edgar has announced that midnight Wedneeday, June 30, is the deadline for car owners with license plate registrations ex­ piring in June to display the orange 1963 stickers in the upper left corner of their rear license plate.

STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAY LORD LAKEMOOR-LILYMOOR AREA Margaret Kara* 305-4934 Tours Europe On Business Trip Belgium, France and reland were among the countries where Bill Kmetz of Lakemoor spent time on a business trip last month. His work went well and the language was no problem, as his partner was a native of France. The highlight of Bill's trip was a cross country drive in Ireland. He rented a car in Dublin and drove to Castlebar, took care of his business and drove back, traveling a distance of almost 400 miles from the Irish Sea practically to the Atlantic coastline. Driving on the "wrong" side of the street made the trip even more of a challenge. Bill found Ireland a very green country, with rock formations and lush rolling hills. Betty and sons Mike and John were happy that Bill's trip did not take as long as anticipated. Now, on to a summer of short camping and fishing trips with all the family together.
