The Governor stressed the need for training people for the types of jobs that are available. He showed displeasure again when he told his l isteners that contrary to many news reports, he was not advocating welfare in Cook county at 60 per cent without using discretion. Ogilvie said the cuts should not be made across-the-board but among those who could hold a job and weren't doing so. "1 will fight welfare abuses to the end". he concluded In other areas, he mentioned the fiscal crisis ' in the state and the manner in which revenue sharing was assisting in­ dividual communities. He pointed to a total of $1.5 million going to McHenry county from state income tax returns in the past year. Of this amount McHenry received $93,000, Woodstock. $148,000 and Crystal Lake, $207,000, all based on population. In answer to crit ics on his role in the education crisis, the Governor countered with facts that have brought Ill inois from forty-seventh in state support to schools a few years ago to a top place today Aid. he said, has risen 111 per cent since 1%9. from $3 million to $6.7 million in McHenry county. Speaking of the transportation problem, Ogilvie spoke of the . 3.(XX) miles of roads in Ill inois * which have been improved during his term of office and of the reduction of the death toll until now it is the lowest in the country, based on mileage. In the area of environment, the Governor said 50 million acres had been acquired in three years to be preserved in their natural state Alsto in this field of aid to communities, he mentioned the $270,(XX) in state aid which benefits the McHenry sewage plant Penal reform also had its place in the Governor's com­ ments He said the number of adult repeaters had been cut by a third through improved rehabili tation programs Donald Udstuen, ad ministrative assistant to the Governor: acted as master of ceremonies.

Pearl St. McHenry, Il l inois 60050 Ph. 385-0700 CLUB DISPUTE (Continued from page 1) Rogers asked Bolger why he voted against the complete proposal when his motion for a limitation for five years, had passed. Bolger explained that he was opposed to the entire idea, but believing that it might pass, he wanted to stipulate that the agreement from the Council would be limited to a definite t ime period The application had called for the parking lot to be improved with a gravel base and seal coating, solid screen , planting and paved entrance. Bolger said he felt if the r application should pass and the Country club made a large expenditure for improvements, it would feel the lot would need to be kept in use for a long period of t ime in order to get the investment .back. In what Smith termed "a gentleman's agreement" the Country club agreed to put solid screening around the parking lot which borders on a residential area " Two years ago the Council issued a violation of ordinance to the Country club, but when the matter could not be settled, even after the expenditure of $2,500 to employ a lawyer, the city rescinded the violation order. The club's application to improve the parking area was guests Mrs. Shirley Smith and her husband, Dr. Smith, Mrs. Mary Kuemmel, president of the V.F.W. auxiliary; Mrs. Doris Henkin, president of the American Legion auxiliary; Commander Lou Rossberg of American Legion Post 491 and Mrs Rossberg. City Clerk Earl R Walsh and Mrs. Walsh, and Supt of Public Works Fred Meyer and Mrs. Meyer. Mayor Doherty gave a short talk appropriate for the oc­ casion Featured speaker for the dinner was James C. Palmer, past commander of the Department of I l l inois, Veterans of World War I. His interesting talk was on the history of the World War I veterans and some of the dif­ ficulties they have en­ countered. As Master of Ceremonies Lock presented Mrs. Smith with a large red rose, he requested that she sing "The Rose That Grows in No Man's l ,and", for which all present joined in on the chorus. T V COMMENTARY By Joka Smiley FORMER silver screen greats who now play the mini-screen of TV seem to be taking a whipping by the heavyweight Nielsen ratings. "The Jimmy Stewart Show" is weighing in around 44th place. Tony. Curtis ' program is behind at 54th. Anthony Quinn's "The Man and the City" is bobbing about at 66th place. Bring­ ing up the rear is "Shirley's World," with Shirley Mac- Laine. THERE IS an increase in the number of hours people are now spending watching television. One reason for the increase could be the shameful quality of some movies being produced, and in the hands of the Council for about six weeks prior to last Monday night. Ted Spengel of the club's board of directors had requested that they be given a definite answer at Monday night 's meeting. yea, even receiving excel­ lent reports from some crit ics who should know better. The movie's "Love Machine" and "Carnal Knowledge" l e f t t h i s v i e w e r w i s h i n g he'd remained home with television. OWEN MARSHALL, COUNSELOR aAT LAW is ABC's lightly disguised at­ tempt to capitalize on the smashing success of l js physician, Marcus Welby, . .by. moving his image-type into the courtroom.- So far "Owen Marshall" has not received the viewer's vote as being the lawyer with the best court side manner. Ratings leave the show dangling on the rocky slopes below the top 20. By covering a mile a day, a person could walk from edge of Texas to edge of Arizona, across New Mexico, in a year even - it is 365 miles. The Marine Corps On November 10th, 1775, the Marine Corps was organized to defend the United States. On that occasion the Continen­ tal Congress in Philadelphia authorized its formation. It was tx> comprise two battalions of men versed in marine as well as military training. Congress suggested the men come from George Washing­ ton's army hut Washington objected to the withdrawal of such men and therefore the' Corps was formed by recruit­ ment, carried on at the Tun Tavern on Water Street in Philadelphia. Throughout its long history (the Corps was disbanded at the end of the Revolutionary War but reactivated in 1794) the Marine Corps has been an elite fighting force, having rendered unexcelled service to the nation in time of crisis. The best tribute to the Marines, traditionally, has been the fear of various enemies in opposing them. They have long been recognized everywhere as fighting men par ex­ cellence. The spirit of theCorps in war has been to conquer or perish in the attack and in World War Two the Japanese met their match when they met the U.S. Marines. Many today--in the understandably muddled climate over the controversial Vietnam war--tend to disparage every­ thing military. A generation of peaceniks thinks itself so highly sophisticated it sometimes ridicules the esprit de corps of great fighting organizations such as the Marines. The longer, appropriate view is that the nation owes much to its Marine Corps, which has defended the nation with honor and great bravery for almost two hundred years, pre­ serving American freedom, ;uid freedom elsewhere in the world, on many critical occasions.
