Comprehensive calendar ISSUE 30 Table of Contents Cover Story — Finally here? Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, work on the much ballyhooed Mayberry Man movie has continued, working around delays, postponements, and schedule changes. Now, the movie is just a few months away from release to its supporters, and hopefully, a public debut not too long afterward. Page 8 Andy finds himself He certainly wasn’t the first student to attend the University of North Carolina, nor the last, but Andy Griffith found an outlet for his creative talents at the venerable state institution, finding himself, and his career path, at the school. Page 4 Guest stars galore Being a guest star on “The Andy Griffith Show” could be a launching pad for young actors, and even already established stars sometimes wanted the chance to work with the cast and crew there. But it was Jean Hagen, driving a fast car and doing some smooth talking, who was the first established star to grace the set.

Determined to assist them in bettering their circumstances, they founded the Chicago Missionary Society, a predecessor of the Community Renewal Society. Since that time of urbanization and industrialization, which brought a massive influx of European immigrants to this city, Community Renewal has endeavored to ensure that the quality of life for all Chicagoans, regardless of their station, racial or ethnic identity, or their economic circumstance, was in keeping with God’s love for all, “especially the least of these.” Chicago still faces glaring inequalities and troubling disparities Honoring our historic legacy, we at Community among its people, including a widening gulf between rich and Renewal Society organize and train good people poor.

  • Community Involvement Plan
    U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 5 Community Involvement Plan Peoples Gas Company North Shore Avenue Station Manufactured Gas Plant Site Chicago, Cook County, Illinois August 2009 Introduction U.S. Environmental Protection Agency prepared this community involvement plan (CIP) for the Peoples Gas Company North Shore Station manufactured gas plant (MGP) site in the West Rogers Park area in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois. This CIP provides background information on the site, describes activities EPA will perform to keep the public and local officials informed about progress at the site, and encourages community involvement during cleanup of the site. This CIP also discusses the concerns of nearby residents and local officials regarding the site and ways for EPA to address those concerns. The information in this CIP is based primarily on discussions with residents, business owners and elected officials that occurred July 8, 2009. Site background EPA has entered into an agreement with Peoples Gas Company to oversee the company’s investigation of 11 former MGP sites in Chicago. North Shore Avenue Station is one of the MGP sites. Peoples Gas will investigate the extent and nature of contamination at the North Shore Avenue Station site, and then evaluate potential cleanup options. This process is expected to continue through 2009. EPA, in consultation with Illinois EPA, the City of Chicago and area residents, will determine final cleanup remedies. All of the properties covered by the agreement are relatively close to the Chicago River, which was a transportation route when the MGPs operated. These facilities produced gas from coal from the mid-19th through the mid-20th centuries.

Many of the films listed were made in a time when filmmakers had to refrain from including curse words, exploitive sexuality or desensitizing violence. To younger members of the family, that means, these films are old! Understandably, a younger generation will not relate to styles and mannerisms of a time gone by, but here is something to keep in mind. Though haircuts change and clothing tightens, people all desire to be warm, to be fed, to be loved, to be respected, etc. In other words, we share a commonality with those of all generations. We’re really not all that different from one another. The following movies will entertain because they contain the most special special effect of all: great storytelling.
