Mary Miller chose a most opportune time to vacation. On the first day last Monday, she was surprised when through the door walked her son, Tom, back home after a year spent in Viet Nam. It's good news when any McHenry area boys returns, and when he belongs to a Plaindealer family there is real rejoicing. As the Plaindealer goes to press this week, we must give a few moments to a nostalgic thought of Columbus as his special day is observed Oct. 12. Historians agree that Columbus must have been a good navigator to discover America and Jind his way Jiome -- even if he was seasick much of the time. With none of the modern luxuries that almost make navigation an e 1 e c tronic breeze, he had to rely on " d e a d r e c k o n i n g . " T h i s means he figured out where he was going on the basis of direction, time and speed. Direction was easy to find with the good compasses available. Time was measured by an hourglass, presided over by a ship's boy, and distance was figured by multiplying speed by the itme . traveled. The "fly in the ointment" was the fact that there was no way to measure speed, so Columbus estimated it. Records show that\the "Admiral of the Ocean Sea" overestimated his speed, but because he was consistently wrong, the mistake didn't prevent him from getting back to Spain. The ships averaged about six knots a day for five consecutive days on the trip to America, and on one day. whizzed along at eight knots. The Mina and Pinta at times hit eleven knots on the return trip in 1493. Maybe it was this fast clip that made Columbus seasick. Or maybe that story is just another of the legends that have grown up around the w o o l w e a v e r ' s s o n f r o m Genoa who turned Europe into an "Old World". K.A.r. SPEAKS ON LCP Hie parents group associated with the classroom for t h e h a n d i c a p p e d a t W e s t school.

County Okays Approprk#!i»n (Continued from Page 1) ed that postponing action for a year would allow the board to meet any new regulations that might be established by the federal government within the next twelve months and still have the construction ready by the 1970 deadline. Okay Levy The board okayed a levy of $722,000 to be collected late in 1967 for the budget and appropriation set a year from now. On recommendation of the liquor commission, members approved increasing the number of licenses from fourteen to fifteen, allowing the extra license for Bit of Heather Country club on Rt. 47. It was announced that personal property suits amounting to $31,511 had been filed recently, and $10,617 collected in delinquent taxes. A letter was read from County Treasurer Audrey Walgenbach. asking board support for that portion of the proposed Revenue issue to be voted in November which would allow sheriffs and treasurers to succeed themselves in office. The June sales tax was announced at $16,455.05. The next county meeting will be held Nov. 15 because of the election on the regularly scheduled day ARREST OF AREA MAN CLIMAXES POLICE CHASE (Continued From Page 1) Richard Amsrson of McCullom Lake has been held in county iail this week under S200 bond, charged with reckless driving and resisting arrest. Amerson was arrested by police after being tracked by blood hounds. A farmer in the area of Queen Anne road and Rt. 120, near Woodstock, called authrorities to report that a driver had been involved in an accident and had left the car and ran away.

The car he left was found in a corn field, without license but containing a Round Lake sticker. ELEVEN FINED ON GAMBLING RAID CHARGE BOARD DECISION SENDS SENIORS TO NEW SCHOOL (Continued From Page 1) Fined were Paula and Carl S p r i n g m a n , G e n e v i e v e a n d Roy Bradley, Margarite and Clifford Kiehl. Augusta and Roy Morrison. Mary Lawrence of Lakewood drive. James . Doran of River road and Renee Freund, Crystal Lake road, all of McHenry. The case of Lorraine Murphy of Wonder Lake was nolle pressed on motion of the state. The raid was conducted last June by state police. 'Continued From Page 1) Patricia A. Schuler of 8819 Evergreen drive. Wonder Lake, struck a telephone booth on west Elm street and knocked it over when brakes on her auto failed Tuesday afternoon. She was driving north on Front, street, and upon noticing difficulty with the brakes, attempted to turn into a driveway but the ear hit the booth. conditioning available in the new construction Since, equipment for* junior-senior classes would be assigned to the building, a four-year summer school could be easily handled. It is known that the latest techniques such as team reaching and multi-grouping • an succeed more readily with the older students Most of the equipment 101 the junior-senior classes is now tin hand and would onl\ need to be transferred to the new school. Fine For Athletes The change for junioi s and seniors readily accommodates the athletic program The varsity and junior varsity basketball teams can practicc on their home court nightly without being translated from the old building Considerably >more parking space will bof available for spectators at/athletic events. The same parking area 'will no doubt find greater daily use among older students who drive cars. By transferling to the new location, a long standing, parking and traffic problem in the area surrounding the school and in . the shopping areas would be eased. The changt would speed bus loading and movement and increase accessibility to both high school buildings. Psychological Value Even with the many advantages cited by the board, members feel that perhaps the greatest would be psychological. They expressed the belief that it is better to have upperclassmen transferring to the new school with graduation in mind. It is also hoped that young folks may be kept in school longer with the incentive of the new building. Dr. Carl Bergstrom. superintendent. said the change was recommended after opinions obtained from department heads and other key people in the high school overwhelmingly gave support to the proposal. Since it had been learned recently that there would need to be slight change in design, L»r. .Bergstrom felt it was timely also for the change in use. The building will still house from 1,000 to 1,200 students and the toial space will be increased from 177.000 to 191.- 000 square feet .The cost is under $17 per square foot. The board still hopes to break ground by the first of the year, with a completion date in May. 1968. A person would be foolish to ignore all views except the most spectacular.
