Photo Virgil Pollock, general campaign cnairman; Anthony Corcorap, hospital administrator; and Richard L. Potter, jilant manager, Admiral corporation, are shown above. A gift of $2,500 by the Admiral corporation was presented to the McHenry hospital expansion program to establish a memorial which is the Visitor's Information Area. "The McHenry hospital* expansion program campaign reached 60 percent of its goal today," announced Virgil R. Pollock, general campaign chairman. "We have received pledges of $184,000," he said, "and we are striving hard to reach our $300,000 goal before the holidays." Mr. Pollock reported that thirty industrial and business firms, as well as individuals, have established memorials so far. In presenting his company's gift to the McHenry hospital expansion program, Richard L. Potter, plant manager of the Admiral corporation in McHenry, said, "The Admiral corporation is indeed happy to be back in operation in McHenry, and as we expand our own work here, we may be responsible for bringing more people into the community. We feel that we have a responsibility a^Ja. corporate citizen to help provide adequate hospital facilities for the care and health of our employees. We know that industry's health and community health are inter-related. In other words, a healthy, efficient working force can be maintained only if the community has adequate hospital service for our employees, their families and the general public health. Our gift, then, comes under the heading of good business practices and at the same time, gratifying to our hearts." "Many more 'memorial opportunities' are available in the new McHenry hospital facility," Mr. Pollock said. "These memorials may be established in a donor's name or in the name of some member of their family. They may be dedicated in the name of a company or the employees of a firm, a friend or a business associate. Clubs, organizations and church groups may wish to perpetuate their names. Others may81 wish to cherish the memory of one who made the supreme sacrifice for his country," he continued. "Our new $1,500,000 expanded hospital facility, itself, is in reality a memorial to the corporate and individual citizens of our community who through their generosity, their intense citizens of our community who through their generosity, their intense civic pride, and their deep interest in the health and well-being of their fellow men, will make the expansion program possible," Mr. Pollock concluded.

CLEAN-UP "Dear Sir: "Now that the election is over we still see posters flapping from poles, trees, pillars, etc. Not so in Whispering Hills, thanks to Bill Johnson, Republican committeeman. Bill mounts his ladder and takes them off. Too bad others don't follow Bill's example. "Joe Gregg "1314 W. Jasper Drive "Whispering Hills" "Dear Editor: "When I was a child and we went visiting, my mother always wrote a "bread and butter" letter after we went home. In many circles today I understand that this courtesy to your hostess is considered passe, unnecessary and even gauche. "In a way this is a "bread and butter" letter to McHenry as simple thanks for the generous bounty my family has received from McHenry -- our children have known no other hometown. "And at the same time this is a farewell letter to all of the young people of the town and the county who over the past decade have put up with "old fat Willie" and his insistence on maintaining that whatever they did, if it was worth doing at all, must be done right. "In Toronto, caught up again in the swirl of "big business" -- and international in scope this time and far too big for me to handle--I miss them. I miss their naive insistence that they know everything. I miss talking with them in classes. I miss chatting with them on the streets, in the churches and at the games -- catching up with all the multitude of trivia that adds up somehow to growing up. I miss them because only now do I realize how fantastically wonderful the young people of my hometown really are. "I am grateful to the parents of McHenry and Woodstock and throughout the county, and the sisters at Marian Central, and the priests and ministers of the churches throughout the county, and the administrators of the schools and especially to thank the hard-working, dedicated teachers the community is so fortunate in possessing for all they have done to create an atmosphere for living for the young people of McHenry so that they may continue to grow strong, to develop minds and to mature as individuals. "William Boyd Andrews" SCHOOL BOND ISSUE "Dear Readers: v . "The prime reason for writing this letter is because I hope, after reading it, you too, will agree that the surest way of keeping our taxes at their lowest point is to vote "yes" on the upcoming bond issue for the propsed .addition to the school. Let^ mesexplain the situation the way l\see it. "At present, "omr school" does not have complete recognition from the stale. We are now on "condition". That means we have a chance to regain complete recognition, if we make an effort to correct conditions at the school. If we do not, we not only lose recognition, we also lose our financial aid from the state. This is a substantial amount of money, which means our taxes will be raised to compensate for the deficit. And that, remember, is over and above our present tax bills. I feel as though my money is wasted, supporting an eventually unaccredited school. You can be sure the state will not allow an unaccredited school to go on indefinitely. The final outcome will be "forced consolidation". Then you can sit back and watch your taxes rise. "Let me bring up another point as to what losing recognition can mean. A school is only as good as its teachers, and we can proudly say we have one of the finest faculty in this area. But, we may not be as fortunate at this time DR. P. KELLY OPTOMETRIST At 1224 N.

William V. Haynes of McHenry pleaded guilty to reckless driving and was fined $150 and costs. John O. Pearson of McHenry pleaded not guilty to speeding, to no driver's license and being next year. Why should our teachfers degrade their positions by teaching in an unaccredited school? Some of our teachers have already been approached, by other schools, to leave Prairie Grove next year. "Many people are of the opinion that a multi-purpose room is not needed. This is false thinking. True, classrooms will correct the crowded classroom conditions, but do you know it is a state law that each school shall have physical education every day? Without adequate facilities and considering the many foul weather days there are during a school term, we cannot comply with this law. Another thing, the state recommends, all schools who transport children should have a lunch room. The multi-purpose room could be used for both. "Think it over before you go to the polls Dec. 5. "Just for the record, I am not just another mother who wants a fine school for her children. My youngest child is now in eighth grade and more than likely he will be in high school next year.
