Pagi SIXIMIK n THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Wonder Lake >• CAST RECORD VOTE IN SCHOOL BOARD ELECTION by Jane Ducey -- 2731 A record vote for a school board election \v;is polled at Harrison school Saturday to return incumbents Mrs. Jay Hansen and Dr. Raymond Watkins to another three year term jof membership on the Harrison board. Of the 345 votes cast Mrs. Hansen received 213, Dr. S. L. Ruggero, 204. and Dr Watkins 189. Defeated were George Burns with 171 votes and John Harris with 159. Frqd Marks, incumbent candidate for the high school board, yvas well pleased with the response of the community to his appeal to get out and vote. We assume that the response will assure the continuation of the high school polling place at the l.ake. However, observation of the crowd that turned out on election day would indicate that, too large a part was made1 lip of residents who ho longer have children in school. Tis a sad commentary that the parents of children in school do not reflect their interest in their child's education by taking pnrt in the election of the members of the board of education. 19, at the St. Patrick's church in Rockford.

Mr. Mack retires at the end of his South American assignment.

Lyle Davidson, son of Mr. After producing one of the finest available source books for highway safety action, the congressmen came to the proper conclusion that at best the federal government can only help those states that wish to j help themselves save lives on their roads and streets. Presented here are a few well - documented areas where immediate legislative safety action can save many lives and win public recognition for responsible state government. 1. More rigid driver examinations, re-examinations and impartial suspension of driving privileges -- Only ten of forty-nine states achieve even 85 percent of the driver screening and improvement accomplishments recommended by the National Safety Council. Twelve per cent of all auto accidents are caused by drivers with defective vision who should have been weeded out long before .they climbed into the driver's and Mrs. Harry Davidson, is scat Two Canasta Parties Velma Sinclair was hostess to, the Wonder Woods Canasta group last Thursday, serving delicious strudle at refreshment time.

Washington State, working toward his Master's degree. Lyle and his wife, Irene, will return to Hebron, Ind., in the fall where he will again teach in the high school there. 2. Compulsory vehicle safe^ TyTnspection- --A national voluntary vehicle safety check prog; am Inst year found about one in every five vehicles injected iii need of safety attention. i'et only two of the forty-nine states have provision for compulsory state motor vehicle inspection. 3. Adoption of "safety" license plates -Seven states out of forty-nine already have adopted safety "license plates, made of a reflective-type material which gives off a warning "shine in headlights. They are responsible for reductions in nighttime rear-end collision accidents and fatalities, the most frequent of all lypes ol vehicle collisions. 4. Uniform traffic laws, ordinances, signs, signals and rules of the road -- Surveys reveal that our national traffic law and sign uniformity manuals, responsible for saving manj lives through safety standardization, are being largely igT nored by state government. These are just a few of the things that demand our attention now. And it takes just one conscientious lawmaker to start the ball rolling for greater highway safety.
