October 21, 1965 Purchase New Bus I S i ? ; v : | ^ i $ S r - f ; % * «%* WSfttaitem, ••»•> "^wwuwjw"-' •• viai#»s:;..; ^^x»^s«aite|fe»": '4fartiimiw Assistant Supt. M. L. Schocnholtz is shown in front of the new bus purchased by School District 1.16 to transfer students to school events. The sixty-six passenger bus was deemed necessary to supplement service provided by the old bus, which accommodated only forty-six. These are the only busses owned by the school and are used only for this purpose, rather than for the transportation of students to and from school. The wide range of activities, especially in the athletic department, has provided many conflicts in recent years in taking participants' to different locations on the same dav. MORE JUNIOR STUDENTS GIVE VIEWS ON SCHOOL The following is another Of the themes written by junior English students at McHenry high school concerning the forthcoming bond issue for erection of a new school: "A new high school for this community is not a luxury, it is a necessity. Why you, the McHenry voters, cannot comprehend this concept is beyond all understanding. You have been shown facts, figures and photographs, but still you are skeptical. Your arguments are many, but many of them are argumentative. Take, for example, the idea of location. The "north suburbanites" want to feel part of the school district and believe the lqcation should be on the north end of town. Everyone knows how "big" McHenry is. Why it would take at least five minutes to drive from one end of town to the other. Certainly, kids who ride the bus for fifteen minutes couldn't be made to sit for another five minutes. 'The swimming pool is another issue in this case. I was once told if out Orf many hundreds of people taught to swim, one would be able to save a victim from drowning, all the time and effort put into lessons would be made worthwhile. Isn't one lilig worth a school swimming pool in McHenry? "Our problem here at MCHS is size. We aire an 1,100 capacity school operating at 1,400. Well, you say, they've squeezed in another 300, so obviously they could fit a few hundred more in. I ask you where can we put another few hundred? Classes are filled. Study halls and the cafeteria are constantly packed. Our auditorium, a place ordinarily used for assemblies or plays, is now another study hall, and not a very good one at that. Have' you ever tried to study in a dimly lit . room , or tried to write while sitting in a' chair that is probably broken? If so, then you have a good idea what the auditorium study hall is like. If not, try it some time to see how you would like it. "Getting from one class to another in five minutes is a major operation, due to our jammed hallways. The conditions in our gym locker rooms are the same, crowded and overflowing. Did you know that it iS a state law that every high school sutdent must have four years of physical education classes? We have only three years. It is believed that if we keep growing, we'll have only two years of it. Does the McHenry school district want to knowingly disregard the law? It certainly would appear so. if we do not pass the referendum. "One day, when all of us were in the gymnasim for an assembly, I thought of what a terrible disaster would occur if there was a fire. Our gym has four exits. That is about 350 students per exit. I seriously doubt that we would all escape. Do you want MCHS to be another Our Lady of Angel's School, the one where ninety-three people died in a fire a few years ago? People waited until it was too late to realize they needed a new school. Are you going to wait that long? "Undoubtedly, you are still skeptical, so I invite, I challenge you to spend a day at school with us. Visit our classes, study halls, cafeteria, and hallways. Observe the facts and ask questions. If it is the only way that you will understand the full meaning of this report, then please accept my challenge. When you realize all the facts, figures and photographs are the rule and not the exception, perhaps then we can look forward to a new school and a more progressive community."

The seventh, eighth and ninth grade girls attend seven different schools. Both troops are meeting at Zion Lutheran church on Thursday night. This will make it easier for the troops • to work together on various activities. The leaders for Troop 41 are Mrs. Raymond J. Bieschke. Mrs. John K. Kelsey and Mrs. Raymond Thelen. The leaders for Troop 295 are Mrs. M. Peters and Mrs. Jerome Rogers. Oct. 9 was the date of a which all the girls attending cook-out for the two troops, at worked on requirements to meet their challenges. They made "a very successful chicken dinner complete with baked potatoes, vegetable, salad, rolls and hojt^chocol^te. All this was done on a charcoal fire. Girl Scout Delights made for dessert were done over a wood five. Learning the care and use of lanterns and how to purify water were part of the activities of the day. Th:s was the first of many I activities that will help the Cadetles to learn by doing and to become better Girl Scouts. FRESHMEN STUDENTS Two R i c h m o n d students. Charlotte Anderson, daughter of Mrs. Kloise Ahclerson, and Peggy Schlosser. daughter"' of Mr. and Mis. John Schlosser, have enrolled as freshmen at Wisconsin State university, La Crosse. The Drivers Seat More and more counties, towns and cities are showing compassion foi$ motorists by e l e c t i n g s t r e e t - n a m e s i g n s with large distinct silver let ters on green backgrounds. Hoorah! In towns, it's hard to find the square concrete pylons, the wooden posts and the battered and rusted black and white street signs that grace sreet corners. On county roads, road-name sigr.s too often are as scarce as snow plows in winter. But now, new name signs are sprouting among the corn and wheat from coast to coast. Among the many counties that recently erected roadname signs are Kankakee cftiinty. III.; Yakima county. Wash.; Kenton county. Ohio, and-Bexar county. Texas. Cities that decided this year to install modern green-andwhite street name signs are Rockford, 111.; Raleigh, N.C.; Niagara Falls, N.Y.; Roanoke, Va.; Newark and Haekensack, N.J. All the signs being put up in these cities and counties are reflective. That is .they reflect headlights at night so they can be seen far down the road. No longer need a driver block a busy intersection while he stops | to find the name of the street j he's on. j Los Angeles has gone one step farther with its "advance street name" signs. The first were installed during 1962 in the downtown area. Now. signs bearing the name of the next street are posted in the middle of the block before most major streets in the city. Such service to the motorist not only makes the voters happy, officials throughout the country should note. It also prevents ' accidents involving confused drivers. _ Shop In McHenry CONTRACTORS j NAME OFFICERS At a ieeent dinner meeting held at the Chicago Title and Trust company, Geneva, the Fox Valley General Contractors association installed their officers for the coming year.
