Doherty of 3711 Lee street, McHenry, following a two-car accident Saturday morning about 11:50 at the intersection of Richmond road and Pearl street. Arthur Lehnebach of 2805 W. Henzada, McHenry, told police he was south-bound on Rich­ mond road when Doherty drove into the left side of his car. Doherty said he was west­ bound on Pearl and while turning south onto Richmond, he hit the Lehnebach auto. Nicholas J. Conrad of 3206 Skyway, McHenry, was cited by city police for improper lane usage Tuesday evening about 9 o'clock after he struck a par­ ked car owned by Keith A. Dulaney of 5407 Lucina, McHenry. The accident oc­ curred at 902 N. Green street. Conrad stated he was north­ bound on Green when he saw the other car parked alongside the curb.

The editor noted that his dictionary showed the plural of the word is spelled "attorneys" and he strongly suspected that the school board dictionary would have con­ tained the same spelling if it had been opened. More than one editor has noted that releases from colleges and universities frequently contain poor grammar and wrong spelling, and they add that these don't always come from the athletic departments. Signs erected by students in school hallways too often have errors. In one case a coach (not in-McHenry) prepared and posted a sign referring to the coming "Schedual" of games. Even pastors aren't exempt. Our friend, the editor, recalled a frequent mention in one particular church bulletin to "sponsers" at baptisms. And in one school district, the initial salary presented by the school faculty to the school board suggested that, "Each teacher will have "their" choice..." Proper English demands an extj& bit of care, and today there are even some educators who believe it is sufficient if you can just communicate. Maybe they're right. To the general public, it probably "don't" make "no" difference! K.A.F. APPROVE DISTRICT 15 NEW SCHOOL BUDGET (Continued from page 1) with other increases. Con­ cerning the budget, Mrs. Cuda said she believes further cuts could have been made, and the present budget would only put the district further in debt. The dissenting board member told the procedure on the June meeting. When a split vote took place in open session over the personnel report, the board went into executive session. Upon returning to the meeting room, a final vote took place in which she cast the only vote in opposition. Also after the meeting, a breakdown of the salary in­ creases for administrators was given to reporters. Three ad­ ministrative staff members at the central office were raised a total of $6,750. These increases included the superintendent, Dr. Boos, $2,000; Eugene Paulausky, director of in­ structional services, $3,000; and William Landis, business manager, $1,750. The salary increases of eight principals varied from a low of $500 for three of them - Donald Toole, Robert Putnam and Dorothy Ullrich - to a high of $1,250 for John Nilles. The salary of Assistant Principal Richard Crosby was raised $1,374. In business other than the budget, a schedule for the maintenance tour Aug. 26 was announced. The public is in­ vited to join board members who will meet at 9:30 a.m. at the central office. The tour will include Hilltop, Landmark, Edgebrook, Junior high, Parkland and Valley View and will continue until noon. An unidentified person at­ tending the meeting asked about the resignation of Crispin Elliott as principal of Valley View school and his reem­ ployment as a teacher. The questioner also asked whether he was being paid on the teacher or administrative Accident Unit Investigation Sheriff Tyrrell, left, announced the formation of a new county accident investigation unit. Deputy Terrell, Deputy Bankson and 0eputy Fitzgerald, shown above, have just completed a three-week course in traffic investigation at Northwestern university. The new vehicle will be equipped with a new radar unit apd all types of investigation equipment to determine causes pf various accidents on the highways. The traffic in­ vestigation unit will be used at all major accidents in the hope of handling traffic accidents in a professional manner. scale. It was explained that Elliott had asked the board to accept his resignation from the administrative position in preference for a teaching post. Dr. Boos said his salary was in keeping with other teachers with similar qualifications.

A report was submitted in accordance with a state law which requires a listing of reading pilot programs with the office of the county superin­ tendent of schools The Reading committee spent considerable time reviewing and studying available programs so that the best possible choice could be made. During the next year these will be evaluated for possible district-wide adoption. Termination of the govern­ ment grant to the Senior Citizens club under the Older Americans act on Oct. 1, 1972, required action by the board. The club considers this past year as the final funding year and has planned on self- sufficiency for this and future years. The club's executive board, at a recent meeting, requested use of Landmark school for meetinps and activities at the same level as the past several years. After some discussion, the schooj board voted to support Catherine church, Mt. Carroll. The Rev. Matthew T. Rudden, formerly assistant at St. Mary Catholic church, McHenry, will be pastor of St. Mary church, Polo. Father Weber leaves his post at St. Vincent Children's home to assume his new duties.

However, other services, such as typing the club's newsletter, etc., will be offered at cost. A report on the summer school questionnaire completed by parents, students and teachers was submitted. It was noted that engines and motors proved especially popular with the young students. Governor In County For Toll Opening Under a hot sun last Friday, Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie was keynote speaker for the opening of the Rt. 47-Northwest Tollway interchange, located just south of Huntiey. The thoroughfare provides east- bound entry and west-bound exit ramps for motorists traveling to and from Chicago. The partial intercjwmge culminates a ten-yeaf dream by citizens of that part of the\ county. J In his talk, the Governor suggested that progress would likely result, since this had been noted everywhere the tollway is located. He pointed particularly to the probability of new factories and additional job opportunities. Rt. 47 serves Woodstock and Huntley, in McHenry county on the north and Hampshire in Kane county on the south. The greatest traffic flow will originate in Woodstock and Crystal Lake, much of it in­ cluding the trucking of milk and gravel. When middle age rolls around, work is no longer play, and play is work.
