County Board Group Studies Purchasing Plan The Purchasing committee of the McHenry County board faced facts, figures and testimony when they last met to consider the central purchasing proposal put forth by County Auditor Jack Schaffer. Thomas B. Blanco, purchasing agent for the state of Illinois, and Earl F. Pfister, Kane county pur­ chasing agent, were both on hand to back up Auditor Schaffer's contention that central purchasing would be good for McHenry county government. Blanco made it clear how he felt about the proposal by stating that "he would put his professional reputation on the line in saying that central purchasing would save the taxpayers of McHenry county 5 percent to 10 percent or $30,000 to $60,000 a year." Both Blanco and Pfister felt the proposed plan to hire a purchasing agent who would work out of the county auditor's office would be the most economical way to start a central purchasing program. The County Board Pur­ chasing committee will con­ tinue to evaluate the proposal at its next meeting. Auditor Schaffer expressed the hope that this program could be under way before the county starts buying furniture and equipment for the new court house next year. \\v \ V BLOCKBUSTERS FOR JULY 4th AT NYE'S SUMMER NEEDS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY SPECIAL! 5 DAYS ONLY! 6-PC. \ ABOVE-THE-FLOOR TOOL SET INCLUDED! 2 speed SUPERIOR SUPER 20"FAN Cools up to 5 rooms as a window exhaust.
