The Street and Alley committee recommendation to grant Paul Overton permission to construct a drive way in front of his residence on Riverside Drive was approved by a 5-4 vote of the council. On one side it was pointed out that the drive would take cars off the street. On the other side, concern was voiced as to allowing the use of city property. It is expected that a written agreement will be filed to cover any problems that may arise. Council members looked over plans for remodeling and expansion of the city hall which would provide space for all city offices.

Dr. Bergstrom, superintendent, received approval for aerial photos of all schools at a cost of $12 each. When completed, they will be placed in the meeting room of the administration building. The board voted to employ Kathy Thomas, in conjunction with similar action by the city, to provide a program for youngsters of the community in the various park areas this summer. , Dr. Griesbach brought up the subject of providing more supervision in restoring the schools to order following public events. It was agreed that some groups had left the buildings in such a state that classes could not be held without considerable clean-up effort. EMPLOY MANAGER The board acted, in cooperation with District 156, to employ Royce L. Marble as business manager to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Donald D. Heldt, effective June 30. Action was also forthcoming to employ Nancy Lossmann as secretary at- Junior High. She replaces Mrs. Janet Fain. Musin9 and Meanderin (Continued from page 1) ture, when they, too, would be reaping the rewards of a high school career well spent. They were memorable words of praise and respect with which Principal Marvin Martin closed the program through presentation of the Carl Buckner memorial award. It was particularly fitting that they were made by one who had worked so closely with the late administrator so many years. For Mr. Martin, it was one of the last official acts in the role of principal' which he has held for the past eleven years. His many friends and co-workers could not have failed to be impressed with the respect shown by the student body for his tribute to another, and for him in his own right. A McHenry businessman, pointed out for us the, irony of his routine experience with law enforcement, comparing it somewhat grimly with another story which appeared in a metropolitan paper. He relates a warning which appeared on communication from the State of Illinois Department of Revenue, Retailers' Occupation Tax division, in Springfield, concerning punishment for failing to file an information report for the year 1967. The penalty was up to six months imprisonment or $5,000 fine, or both. About the same time, a newspaper carried the story of a Criminal court judge who reduced a two to three-year prison sentence for a 21-year-old convicted robber to five years' probation with the firsts year served in county jail. The fortunate offender had pleaded guilty and was sentenced for two loop store robberies last fall. At the time of his arrest he admitted committing more robberies than he could remember. The judge was quoted as saying he changed the sentence because the man had no previous convictions, because he was impressed with his remorse, and also impressed with the man's family. And they call this justice! Monday was touring day at the Plaindealer office, with upwards of eighty-five young people from the local schools making their way through the various, departments in order to get a better idea of just what is involved with putting each newspaper together. From the letters of appreciation received Tuesday, it appears that these youthful students took a good deal of interest in the subject of journalism. K.A.F. Approval was given to accept Murphy Miles Co., of Skokie as bidder for fuel oil for school year 1968-69. A fee of $35 was okayed, to be used as a training fee for a student attending Countryside Center for the Handicapped in Barrington. Metallic Yarns Metallic yarns used today consist of a layer of metal, usually aluminum, bonded between two layers of acetate or polyester plastic film.

Rapid spread of new insect pests and increasing populations resistant to insecticides has created a problem of insect control much more serious than many farmers realize, according to the Natural History Survey. The survey is undertaking new studies to cope with insect invaders such as the western corn rootworm, the alfalfa weevil and the cereal leafbeatle. Also coming under study by the biologists are means to control white break disease and juniper blight and the parasitic nematodes on nursery stock. Fishermen are getting attention from the scientists through experiments to produce large hook and line yield of bluegills double the size of the average catch. MODULAR &MOVABLE . . .
