Page Eight THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, 9. Proposed Area Land Use r" - 7^ . \ , ^ . r > - x v r^TT^W? Above is shown an ai'tist's conception based on a plan developed by Stanton & Rockwell, planning consultants, as p%t of their program for a growing McHenry commun ity. This view looks to the northeast into the intersection of Green and Elm streets and shows the improvement of Boone creek and the potential"(development of the central business district. The plan would provide for a connection between the existing Green street bridge and Court street, which would require the removal of at least one building and t he widening of the bridge. Court and Green would then operate as a one-way pair. Plan Report Highlights (Continued from Page 1) Assistance Tq McHenry Schools Totals $181,290 of all if the various comprehensive plan aspects, commercial, industrial, residential and public facilities, to serve these land uses. Also considered is the entire planning area, which is nine times as large as the city itself, and the effect of the development of this area an the city. Review of the zoning ordinance with the achievement ot the plan as a goal resulted in the expanding of the number of zoning cla ssifications, strengthening provisions for off-street parking, loading and sign control, changing the concept of "special--Uselland reassigning respjmsibility^of zoning changes and plan effectuation. McHenry's present ordinance provides for one single family classification with lot size of 10,000 square feet. The propose d ordinance provisions Would continue the existing classification (new designation R-3) at> a high density district. Ill addition, two additional residential districts are proposed: 1, a low density district having a lot size of 40,000 square feet (R-l). and 2, a medium density district having a lot size of 20,000 square feet (R-2). Almost without, exception all the developed areas within the entire planning area would continue in the high density category. Present development In the county, with an existing minimum lot size of 12,000 square feet, is approximately 10,000 square feet or less, with frontages predominantly in the 40-60 foot range. The high density district (B-3) as recommended, ties the existing d e v e l o p m e n t s t o g e t h e r and provides for transitional zoning between industrial areas and less dense residential districts. The present R-2 (multifamily) residence district has fjeen retained in the proposed multi-family district (R-4). ; Planners feel that if economic considerations are the basis for desiring increased house &zes, a rigid and enforced building code and housing ordinance will maintain property v a l u e s m o r e e f f e c t i v e l y t h a n with the mere requirement to have a large house. Public schools in the county will receive $1,083,384.95 in assistance from state funds during the year, according to an announcement made by Richard Tazewell, superintendent of schools, based on attendance. McHenry high school is scheduled to receive $31,290.88, McHenry consolidated school, $150,000; Johnsburg, $15,663.- 69; Harrison, $52,934.15; Spring Grove, $2,209.94; Ringwood, $4,330.80; Solon Mills, $1,431.- 06. Appropriations made to offset a deficiency in the state budget made possible the large amounts received. McHenry Scouts Observe Special Week With Father-Son Banquet SEEK ZONING SUGGESTIONS FOR TOWNSHIPS • . fc-.. (Continued from Page 1) which should be anticinated. Make Complete Survey "Last summer" Bacon said, "EMCPA employed geographers from Northwestern university to make a complete survey of the use of land in these townships. That job, which is now completed, had to be finished before any plan could be proposed by professional planners." Bacon pointed out that the plan commissions of the cities of Woodstock, McHenry and Crystal Lake were being kept closely informed of the work of EMCPA. "We are aware that those communities have active, conscientious planning commissions and that they are properly concerned with what takes place on the edges of their communities," Bacon added, "and before we submit our proposals to the zoning committee of the county board of supervisors we shall make certain that all municipal plan commissions and all interested property owners' groups have an opportunity to study the proposals of Stanton & RocKwelL" DESE«rFifiWER HAND and BODY LOTION j with the heart of Lanolin , This is Boy Scout Week, a time when the large number of Scouts in the McHenry area take special pride in displaying their uniform and telling others just what their organization stands for. Many units are holding courts of honor for their families and friends as formal promotions in rank are presented. Cub units hold blue and gold banquets throughout the week and display and review their many achievements. Local Scouts and Explorers are having their annual father and son banquet Saturday evening, Feb. 11, at the Chapel Hill Country club, where more than 150 will attend to hear Malcolm Ingison, district executive, tell about Scout jamborees and show slides. One of the high points of the week will be the assemblage of Scouts from the various units, in uniform, in all churches in McHenry, where many will be used as ushers, in choirs and in other capacities. The Scout law states that a Scout is reverent and this he is proud to display. Distinguished By Uniforms Members of the various troops and packs hope that the public watches for them in their uniforms. They may be distinguished by the dark blue uniform of the Cubs, the familiar khaki of the Scouts and the green of the Explorers. The Sea Scouts wear white and the Air Scouts, light blue. They will be proud to stop and tell you what the insignia on the sleeves or pockets mean. Even the color of the neckerchief has a significance. The scouting story is told in some store windows, where displays have been set up. It is interesting to see which units have accomplished the most in best telling the story through first aid, nature trails, Indian lore, camping, etc. The congratulations of the entire community are extended to McHenry's Scouts. In 1943, the railroads carried 71 per cent of all intercity freight, now, barely 40 per cent. During the same time, truckers increased their percentage from 5.5 per cent to 29 per cent.

A full slate of, officers won 1 he unanimous vote of those who attended. Eugene Piotrowski of Mc- Cullom Lake was named candidate for assessor; Jesse Seeman of Wonder Lake for clerk; John McCafferty, James Mc- Inerny of Pistakee Highlands and James Lennon of Sunnyside for auditors; and Harry Olszewski for assistant supervisor. Until Tuesday's caucuses, only one complete~Tlcket had filed for township offices. First to file was the Citizens'! party ticket, which includes jjthese candidates: Lester R. Bacon for assessor; H., Walter Anderson for town clerk; Arnold J. Rauen, Sibre Whiting and Harold N. Freund for the board of auditors; Robert L. Hurckes of Pistakee Highlands, Joseph Sullivan of Wonder Lake, Edward Thennes and Charles' (Chuck) Weingart of McHenry for assistant supervisors. At the time the Citizens' party filed, it was thought that four new assistant supervisors would be elected. However, since that time legislation has been passed which limits the number to one new assistant in McHenry township. As the Plaindealer prepared to go to press Wednesday afternoon, the Citizens' party ticket was planning a meeting for that evening to discuss the matter. Edward Thennes had already announced his intention of withdrawing his name. The filing deadline for township offices is Feb. 13. The election will be held April 4.

Of course, it could have just happened that way, but the station officials were convinced that the purpose of the stunt --to instill in listeners the realization that it might not be "the other fellow" ' but themselves who could be killed unless they drove safely -- was successfully accomplished. K. A. F. / INTERPHONE IS INNOVATION IN McHENRY HOMES A new look for McHenry area homes will be introduced Feb. 15 with a communications network that includes dooranswering and ' 'electr o n i c baby-sitting" features. "Called home interphone, the network provides for the first time a wide range of intercommunication services in addition to the telephone," says R. C. Zahn, Illinois Bell manager for McHenry exchange. "For example, you can answer the door through an outside microphone-s p e a k e r combination, or check on sleeping or playing infants through a telephone positioned nearby." Home interphone already has been introduced in certain "test areas" in Illinois by Bell, but the Feb. 15 date marks its introduction on a state-wide basis. An important feature* is the new system's usefulness in emergencies, such as reporting a fire or accident, calling for help, or telling the family to vacate the house in the event of a serious fire.
