Mu™& Meufai. tGontinued From Page 1) Everyone who attended "Plenty of Money", presented three nights last week at the local high^school auditorium, came away a good deal happier for the many laughs provided. It was truly an enjoyable two hours, and particularly so when we realized that proceeds would be used for new band uniforms. This was one performance in which "bit" players received as hearty applause as the headliners, and all were perfectly cast. LET'S LOOK AT THE \ & V BY LINDA NORRIS Would you believe --- Christmas???

He reportedly broke through a door, shot his brother-in-law^ and then went to another room and shot the two women. The Riebes had been divorced for three weeks. Last week we recounted a little human interest story involving Gene Dobyns, the loss of his hat and its eventual recovery. We should have postponed our press release of the details, for this week we have a new ending. Last Thursday evening, in the midst of the buzzard, Dobyns was hurt when struck by a car, but through" the pain of his injury managed a bit of humor as he sent word to inform us he no longer had two good hats. The second one was ruined by the accident. KJLF. TOP STAR ON GOP PROGRAM (Continued From Page 1) / Linda Merrill, chanteuse, mimic and comedienne in her own right. The best way to describe Miss Merrill is in the words of Henny Youngman himself, when they both appeared here three years ago. He said, "that girl is hard to follow". There are still a few reservations available and may be arranged for by calling any of the above named gentlemen.

FACULTY ENGAGES IN "FOCUS" ON CREATIVITY (Continued From Page 1) familiar with the Illinois Plan for Program Development for Gifted Children. At the present time, state funds have been appropriated and distributed to local school systems who have developed innovative techniques of teaching the creative or gifted child. Teachers will hear directors of such projects describe their approach to the problem. Psychologists will attempt to aid the teacher in defining and identifying creativity. Every teacher in the program will visit a school that has developed a gifted program. Mr.- Trout informed the teachers that the main purpose for the gifted children program is to halt the talent loss that takes place in many of today's schools. Trout feels that many of the highly creative children are not "teacher-pleasers" and are, therefore, not given the attention and freedom from which they could benefit. Hie program was developed by Miss Helen Curran and is being directed by Richard Swantz.

Donald Robert Doherty Schultz, B-Ph. It Ph. DID YOU KNOW? What exactly is a virus? Here is a question you won't find answered on any quiz show. In some respects it is a living organism; in others, it is pure chemical. We could possibly then argue with some logic that a virus is a living chemical. At any rate, infinitesimal; The head of a pin can easily hold 25 million polio viruses, and they have the amazing facility of self-duplication. Many of our most learned minds maintain that the first living things to appear on earth many millions of years ago were very similar to the viruses we know today. From these^iving chemicals came other anattiore complicated forms of life.

This represents an increase of $294,000 over sales a year ago. All departments--feed, fertilizer, petroleum and lumber-- showed an increase in dollar volume of sales. EXPECTS GOOD YEAR Gardner said he anticipates a "good year" for 1967 because much of the improvements achieved the past year will contribute to efficiency and more business volume.

The law under which the referendum goes before the public in about a month is quite strict in how the money is handled, Arnold May of Richmond, who is a member of a committee working to inform the public with facts about the referendum, said this week. The law limits the maximum amount that can be raised. In the referendum proposal approved unanimously by the McHenry county board of supervisors, only one-half the maximum allowable amount was authorized. In addition, those close tothe mental illness and mental retardation problems do not expect any Organizations to develop a program requiring more than a fraction of the total allowed amount. In other words, May said, the organizations interested in the referendum concerning these distressed citizens have developed a budget which would total only part of the maximum allowed amount. "Best estimate is that the maximum would not be needed for at least ten years or when an increased population and demand for service emerges," May said. Under the law, the board of supervisors must appoint a seven- member community mental health board, composed of physicians, school administrators, or others who would be familiar with the problems that might come before them. Organizations seeking money made possible by the referendum would outline a budget proposal to this seven-member board. The board would review the budget and make its recommendation to the board of supervisors. In turn it would make the final decision on how much taxes to levy for this purpose. "Control over funds would be in the hands of the board of supervisors," May summarized. Generally speaking, this money would be used to provide psychiatric treatment for residents of McHenry county who need it and cannot afford it on their own incomes and to help the mentally retarded --both children and adults. • r .
