Sal. 1:30-3:00 ' \ County archeology subject for historical program people through their ar­ tifacts. ; Indian history and pre­ history have been topics of interest for area residents since the first settlers came into this county in the 1830's. Early accounts document encounters with Indians and, in one particular case, go into detail about a village of Indian wigwams, built of bark, in» Coral Township. These associations with historic Indians, however, were fleeting and often chance encounters; but ar­ cheological research un­ dertaken here does snow evidence of pre-historic Indians as early as 12,000 to 8,000 B.C. This program provides an excellent opportunity to see what things have been un­ covered in McHenry County, what is being done to f> reserve Indian sites, and earn about this important aspect of McHenry area heritage. ---- Just heard this one and it gave me a good chuckle: * "If you stay on that phone much longer, you are going to have to have it surgically removed." would have been frost on them. , Wayne Gay lord, although disappointed, says the Sox gave us a lot of excitement.
