The obituary for Ann L. Novelli in some editions of Thursday's Star omi tted the names of her sisters-in-law, Irene Rotoloni and Nancy Capriott i.
The obituary for Nannie Mae Rufus omitted the names of her sons, Frank ( Lillie) and Fredrick (Lana) Rufus, both of Michigan.
The obituary for Elinora G. Pagel incorrectly stated that she was a tea cher. She was a retired teacher. Among her survivors, the name of Jeffr ey Moskovitz was misspelled due to faulty information provided to The S tar. The Star regrets the errors.

6 Feb 1948 - 17 Mar 1950 Blue Cross, 733 N Plankington, Milw. Started f irst reportable hospital statistics for Blue Cross in Wisconsin. Create d a line-graph showing cost per day for drugs, rooms, etc. (each aspect o f hospital care) by what was paid out to each hospital in Wisconsin. Go t IBM printouts from key punch cards, a running report for each hospita l in the state. She did cost per item figures which were used for dete rmining the cost of Blue Cross insurance policies. She started the enti re systems of figures. While she was there, four representatives were h ired to go to the hospitals to see that the hospital's bookkeepng was d one in the same (right) way so the billing was consistant and the figur es would be correctly reflective of the costs. At the time, one woman d id all the checks for the entire state. Blue Cross WI was barely 10 ye ars old at the time. Baby shower for Christine was held here.

Occupation teacher
Notes:
Sept 1960-June 1961 teacher, St Louis of France, 117th & State St, 6th g rade. She had the educational background for teaching (with her philoso phy major in college) but couldn't get a state teaching certificate bec ause she did not do student teaching.
The Catholic Schools were independent from the state hiring rules at th at time. When the Catholic schools later adopted state guidelines, Elin ora kept her job by grandfather clause and number of years of classroom e xperience.

Sept 1961-June 1990 teacher, St Catherine of Genoa, 117th & Lowe, Chgo
Started in a contained 4th grade. Departmentalized 4th, then 6th, then a 5 - 8 th combination. Generally taught math, science, social studies. Coordi nated loans of Title 8 books, movies and microfilm to the group of Cath olic schools that pooled resources for their purchases. Was a member o f CATA (Catholic Teachers Association) during the time the Catholic Sch ools in Chicago where going union (1960s). Organized school science fai rs and participated as Judge in Chicago Metro Science Fairs.

15 November 1993: Interview responses Kate needed for her writing class :
How did you start your job?
"I was asked to substitute teach in my daughter's class. The regular t eacher became ill. I subbed for 2 weeks just before the end of the yea r. The principal asked if I would teach the full year. I taught for 3 0 years. It was supposed to be a temp job until they found a replaceme nt. My last school was St. Catherine of Genoa, on the far south side of C hicago."

"I liked teaching very much, especially being with the boy and girls an d seeing how they responded to teaching. I retire because I was gettin g too old to do as much for the students as I thought I should. I'd lik e to go on teaching but being my age and having taught for 30 years, I g uess it's time to retire."

"All the teachers worked well together. Many are still close friends."

"When I was a kid, I wanted to be a doctor. In my freshman year of col lege I got sick, so I had to stop school. When I got back, I realized I 'd never be able to finish school and go to medical school, so I change d my goal."

Source Text: taken out of school April/May 1932 when the divorce occured; moved back t o Stoney Island after Hasik left. Hasik probably went to Grandma Kopta' s house to live.

July 1932: Hasik didn't go to the custody hearing so he lost all right s to Elinora. Could be that Helen was already pregnanrt and he was read y to marry her and move on to a new family. [Could also have been part o f the agreement with Theresa or Grandma Kopta's influence.]

Louis & Mary Klein were living in Glenwood at this time. Only Frank, Be tty, Theresa and Elinora were living at Stoney Island in July 1932.

Source Text: After they moved back to Stoney Island and lived on the second floor: J oe Zboril rented one room, Johnny McLave rented another room.

Hasik would take Elinora to see "Grampa Frank" Zboril Sr at the old/ex t avern. Grampa Frank promised the gilded cruxifix to Elinora and made hi s son, Joseph, promise that she get it when he died. The mechanical pia no and bar were all that was left in the empty saloon. The house opened o n to 93rd and Avalon. Between 93rd /Avalon and 93rd/Stoney was the nick elplate railroad. In good weather, they'd walk to the tavern. In bad, t hey'd drive around the roundhouse. There was no road through on 93rd st reet until the 1960s when the steel company wanted it.
Source Notes:
Grandpa Frank died March 1932. Denise still has the cruxifix

Source Text: Helene was in Coles school in about 3rd grade in about 1929/1930. Elly w as about 4 or 5 when she went to Helene's school as a "guest." Elly wo uld have been in 3rd grade in 1932/1933.

Helene and Elinora were at Cole School at the same time. Helene graduat ed 8th grade from Coles in June 1935, when she was 16 years old.

Helene lost a year of school from the scarlet fever and was held back a g rade when she transfered schools. She may also have started school late r than other kids because of her health or vision. She was crosseyed an d a very sickly kid. She could eat 6 pieces of toast with butter, peanu tbutter and jelly and never gain an ounce in weight. Hasik would take H elene and Elly on trips to get malteds so Helene would have the milk to " fatten her up." These were the days of *real* malt in the malteds; very t hick and filling.
Source Notes:
Counting back from her June 1942 high school graduation, Elly would hav e started school in Sept 1930.
Counting back from Helen's 1935 graduation; less 1933/1934 for scarlet f ever; repeated an early grade; sickly when young; Helene probably began s chool at age 7, Sept 1925, right after Elinora was born.
