The group will meet in the Solar Center of Pleasant Valley Outdoor Center, 13315 Pleasant Valley Rd., Woodstock, at 3 p.m. The concerns of the com­ mittee, which formed about two years ago, are two-fold: to preserve wild flowers in their natural habitat and to en­ courage propagation of wild- flowers as an alternative to removing them from the wild. As a result of the work, the committee is also re-introducing into certain natural areas some species which, for whatever reason, have disappeared but which most certainly were once there, according to a~ spokesperson for the committee^ Ed Collins, the naturalist at the center, will, show the group the work he is doing there with the long-term goal of developing a gene bank for many of the BREATHING CLUB Sherman Hospital's Breathing Club will meet Wednesday, Sept. 12, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., at the hospital in Elgin.

Following the field trip (around 5:30 or 6 p.m.) there will be a pot-luck supper with each person bringing his own dinnerware, beverage, and a dish to share. At 7 p.m., John Kolar, a speaker at the Northern Illinois Prairie Workshop, will address the group on propagation techniques he has found suc­ cessful. Kolar, an electrical contractor by trade, propagates wildflowers as a hobby. He studied under Ray Schulenberg of Morton Arboretum and wotted actively on the l'! Ar­ boretum's restored prairie. All interested persons are invited to attend. Those unable to attend the entire program may drop in for any part of it. For further information or directions to the center, call Margaret Marchi at 385-6047 or Pleasant Valley Outdoor Center at 338-5080.
