BOY SCOUTS PICKUP
SATURDAY
The second phase of Good
Turn Day for the Boerne
Scouts and communities in the
15 counties of the Alamo Area
Council comes Saturday, when
the boys return to pick up
Goodwill bags distributed to
local households last week.
The Scouts are asking that
residents of household place
articles they no longer use or
consider discardable. These ar-
ticles range from clothing to
small household appliances.
Good Turn Day represents
the single largest collection of
these items made during the
year for Goodwill Industries.
Handicapped persons train-
ing at Goodwill learn skills
in repairing and restoring the
items, abilities they later can
use in gaining employment.
At the same time, sale of the
articles give them a small in-
come while they are learning.
Tremendous savings in
every department, from
toiletries to baby needs...

Boerne community to attend
the services and the covered
dish noon meal.
Presently the congregation
has 375 baptized members and
about 275 confirmed members.
The congregation has had a
slow but steady growth. The
congregation has also had
four building programs: first
the front or north part of the
church, then the parsonage,
then the south part of the
church and finally Luther
Hall. There is a debt of about
$4,000 left on Luther Hall.
Capt. John Stevens Berry,
one of the defendant attorneys
in the recent Green Berets’
trial, was interviewed on the
NBC, CBS and ABC news the
weekend of Sept. 21st. He is
the nephew of Mrs. Ted Brich,
Rt. 1, Boerne.

In 1962, Gino was discharg-
ed from the Italian Air Force
and returned to the , United
States as a civilian. He was
naturalized an American cit-
izen in 1966.
In 1964, with his family,
Gino transferred to Torrance,
Calif., where he worked as
plant engineer and quality con-
trol manager, helping estab-
lish one of the largest TV
cathode ray tube factories on
the West Coast. Subsequently,
he served as consultant to
many leading TV tube manu-
facturers. In 1967, the Mon-
dinis returned to San Antonio
with intentions of establishing
a similar business in this area.
Circumstances changed their
plans and brought them to
Boerne where TV service was
in great demand.
Their aim is to give Boerne
the best ALL APPLIANCES
service in the nation, for they
chose this town as their home
and they will strive to help
make it the very best place
to live. To further that aim,
they have announced the open-
ing of a new appliance sales
and service store at 282 N.
Main and they cordially invite
the public to visit them this
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
We are certain that this will
contribute an improvement to
the service needs of this com-
munity.

CHAIN SAWS FAST BE-
COMING STANDARD CON-
VENIENCE TOOL FOR
HOMEOWNERS
Drastic reductions in the
weight of chain saws has been
the foremost reason for the
record-setting purchases of
chain saws during the past
12 months.
According to Walter Berg-
mann, of Louis Bergmann &
Sons, introduction of the Pow-
er Mac 6 chain saw by Mc-
Culloch Corporation last year,
created interest and sales
never before experienced in
the industry.
McCulloch’s line for 1970
includes 18 models of chain
saws, r a n g i n g from the
“world’s lightest” Power Mac
6 of 35 cc (2 cu. in.) to the
Super 797 of 125 cc (7.5 cu.
in.).
Of special importance in the
new saw line is the unveiling
of the Power Mac 6 Automatic
model which provides auto-
matic bar, chain and sprocket
lubrication. This model is also
factory-equipped with longer
cutting elements, 16-inch bar
and chain.
Special emphasis has been
given to the professional using
chain saw operator by McCul-
loch’s research efforts in the
creation of “Cushioned Pow-
er,” a remarkable chain saw
vibration reduction achieve-
ment.
Two 1970 saws contain the
“Cushioned Power” design,
the CP-55 and the CP-70. Both
models are in the 13-lb. class
(power units only) and in-
corporate “Sound - Silencer”
mufflers.
McCulloch continues to offer
the only electric starting chain
saw on the market in the
Super 10-10E. This model is
factory equipped with a 16-in.
bar and chain and also in-
cludes the deluxe “Sound Si-
lencer” muffler.
“Whatever the wood cutting
need, from home property
clean-up to hard work-range
commercial tree care or log-
ging, we have the tool by Mc-
Culloch to best suit your job,”
said Walter Bergmann.
YOUTH VOLUNTEERS
MEET IN BOERNE
The Methodist Youth Fel-
lowship of the First Methodist
Church of Boerne met Sunday
afternoon in the chapel of
Town and Country Manor
Nursing Home. The meeting
was held to make up schedules
for volunteer work among the
residents of the nursing home.
If the program now planned
works successfully according
to Pitts Davis, co-chairman
with Mary Dean Howell, the
program will be offered to oth-
er , nursing homes in Boerne.
Davis is arranging with all
members of the Fellowship for
specific days and times of par-
ticipation. The group plans to
meet at the nursing home ev-
ary other week in order to
evaluate their activity and to
"ilan any expansions. Invita-
lion is issued to any youth in
Boerne to participate.
PASTORAL PROGRAM
DEVELOPMENT NOTED
Pastors of all the Boerne
Churches met at noon Monday
■ or a luncheon meeting in the
lining room of Town and
Country Manor Nursing Home
where much of the developing
program for Pastoral Care has
taken place. Under the chair-
manship of Rev. Wayne Ad-
cock of St. Mark Presbyterian
Church, the group decided to
seek literature and resource
material in ministry and pas-
toral care for nursing homes.
Every available national or-
ganization will be approached
for material. The Boerne pas-
tors then intend to develop
their own material for guid-
ance of other nursing homes.
Plans were made to involve
all other nursing homes in
Boerne as a part of the pres-
ently developing program. Ad-
ministrators of all local insti-
tutions are to be invited to
the monthly conferences.
The next meeting will be at
Town and Country Manor
Nursing Home on Nov. 10.
