1 PAGE 16-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MARCH 16, 1973 800 HEAR ACE SEWAGE PUN (Continued from page 1) preliminary assessment and evaluation of the impact on both the participating farmer and the surrounding com­ munities. According to the engineers, sewage wastes would be brought through underground tunnels to the area and placed in storage lagoons. The waste materials would be left in these lagoons for 150 days until the solids settled. The wastewater would then be used to irrigate farm land on which two crops would be grown, corn and winter r yvThe water would be drawn u^n and filtered through the soil into drainage tiles and eventually be returned to where it came from, in the C- SELM area. All in attendance at the meeting who gave their opinions and asked questions disapproved of the proposal. One man asked if the farmers could be forced into a program such as this if they didn't wish to participate. Col. Richard Wills, who conducted the meeting, answered no. The plan would have to be approved by the whole community and the County board before becoming ieffective. Col. Wills said ACE hopes to interest the community in a financial way because farmers would be paid for the use of their land. A question was asked on how the project could be stopped from coming into the county. The lady was told to express her views to elected officials in the county and state.

CLAREMONT HILLS PROBLEMS CONTINUE TO PLAGUE COUNTY (Continued from page 1) from residents living within these subdivisions. T r e a s u r e r A u d r e y Walgenbach explained her proposed plan for making refunds of personal property taxes paid into the county in 1971 and held by her in escrow. She reminded that it is necessary to file annually for the $1,500 Homestead Exemp­ tion. After a review of the Com­ monwealth Edison bills for the courthouse, the board agreed that a check should be made with the company concerning the tremendous increase in cost since moving to the new building. The two-month bill closing out 1972 amounted to $3,669.39 and for the first month of this year it totalled $5,825.35. The board recalled that Com­ monwealth Edison had given them an estimate of $39,000 to budget for light and power for the year. If future bills follow the rend set in January, it will run $70,000. Much discussion was held concerning a proposal of the Finance committee to award the Cadastral aerial tax maps and parcel numbering system for the county to the Sidwell company of West Chicago. The amount of money involved is $287,000. The committee vote had been three in favor and two opposed. Buss, a member of that committee, explained his negative vote to the entire board. He said Sidwell's was not the low bid, running $2,000 higher than the only other amount submitted.

McCullom Lk. Kd. McHenry favor of Sidwell said they thought the Illinois-based firm could probably^ provide better service. • .... After more discussion, an unanimous vote was cast for Sidwell, subject to an opinion from the State's Attorney as to whether or not bids were required. There had been no general request for bids by the board. A technicality forced a hold­ over on the petition of the General Telephone company, which asks a conditional use permit to add a radio tower to its presently existing equip­ ment and facilities. Approval was indicated. An okay was given to the bid of Woodward Ford-Mercury, Inc., in the amount of $31,755 for three Ford L-8000 truck chassis; also the bid of Edgetown Motor Sales in the amount of $2,875 for a 1973 Plymouth Suburban station wagon, and a bid of Woodward Ford-Mercury, Inc., $2,649.67 for a 1973 Ford Custom 500 sedan. The board also approved $2,840 from the County Bridge fund to pay half the cost of replacing a bridge in the village of Union. A request to grant an ex­ tension of time to May 8 for the Board of Review was accepted. Announcement was made of the various allotments to townships and road districts from motor fuel tax paid into the state treasury during January. McHenry township, with 74.67 miles, received the largest amount, $2,854.33. Nunda was second with 66.04 miles and $2,524.45. The report from Valley Hi Nursing home indicated there are now twenty-seven women and five men on the waiting list. The number of women com­ prises about a year's waiting list. An ordinance was passed, declaring no further bounty on foxes in the county. HOLD TESTING FOR PRE-SCHOOL AGE YOUNGSTERS (Continued from page 1) certain concepts? What if a child is easily distracted or cannot follow directions? When the child reaches school age, he may encounter problems in learning, he may feel out-of- step, he may have a difficult time adjusting. But if such problems can be detected and treated in a child's early years, problems in school can be reduced or eliminated before he becomes frustrated. Many learning problems are subtle and, therefore, parents may not be aware of them. This is the reason for the McHenry School District 15 preschool registration and screening program, to determine problem areas or special needs early and to remediate them prior to entry in the kin­ dergarten and grade schools.

Of special interest was- action to secure Vocational-Technical Edu­ cation funds. Dr. Eugene Paulausky, director of instructional ser­ vices, displayed a vocational education program overview listing goals toward which the district is working. Dr. Paulausky also said he in­ tended to visit the public relations workshop of Illinois Bell Telephone in Lake Villa for further information. Approval also was given to file application for a 1973-74 Gifted program. This new three-year program is com­ pletely funded. Next year will be the fourth that District 15 has participated in the State Gifted program, which is now being revised. The board also okayed action to file for Title I ESEA funds, fully funded, pertaining to the summer school program, and for Title II ESEA project for library books and other in­ structional materials. In a discussion of kin­ dergarten registration March 19-21, a recommended materials fee of $4.75 per child was approved, plus the cpst of milk, which has not yet been determined. It was explained that two different books are now in use in kindergarten, the Alpha Time, which costs $4.70, and the Lippincott at $8. In view of the price dif­ ference, Member David Cain asked what portion of the cost of the Lippincott edition would be paid by parents. He questioned the fairness of the school making up the $576 deficit in this one grade. Dr. Robert Boos, superin­ tendent, explained that since parents have no way of knowing which type book is best suited to their child, it also seemed unfair to assess them according to the pupil's ability. After some discussion, the board decided that in this case, where the amount is not large, the school will pay the deficit. Board President Henry Nell cast the only negative vote on the acceptance of recognition requirements by the Office of Superintendent of Public In­ struction. Nell explained that he was not in opposition to the goals but felt the state should not be allowed to impose such goals on school districts. With regret, the board ac­ cepted the resignations of Carolyn Bauer, fourth grade teacher at Edgebrook; Helen Mauch, kindergarten teacher; Janet Davidson and Kay Reese, teachers at Hilltop. These are effective at the close of the school year. Also resigning was Nancy Stetter, secretary to the transportation director. Patricia Guzzetta was em­ ployed to teach Math at Junior high school. The board voted to reject carpeting installed at Valley View and Hilltop schools in August of last year. The company has not been paid for the floor covering, which has failed to meet specifications. Authorization was given to bid on two new school busses. This will be done in conjunction with District 156, which also is in need of two busses, after favorable action is taken by that board. The calendar for the 1973-74 school year was approved.

They were the homes of Frank Gresik at 7512 Cedar drive, Ronald Bjurstrom at 7505 Maple street and a home at the corner of Wonder Lake drive and Birch street, the owner of which was not determined. Most of the property known to have been taken from the homes was accounted for. The boys were turned over to juvenile authorities who will handle the charges.

Congressman To Visit McHenry Voter Meeting Rep. J.B.Anderson, of the 16th Congressional district will be the featured speaker and guest at a meeting of the League of Women Voters of Woodstock- McHenry at the McHenry Country club at 8 p.m. March 23. Mrs. June Girard, president of the League, said, "Our recent interview with Rep. Anderson was so interesting and rewarding, we asked if he would come to a meeting and talk to all of our members and their husbands. Happily we were able to arrange a con­ venient date, March 23. The subject will be a timely one, 'Congressional Reform', and there will probably be ample time for Rep. Anderson to answer questions. We are looking forward to this meeting and it will be another highlight in our year's programs." Mrs. Girard was referring to a cocktail party near the beginning of League's program year, when the newly elected Gov. Walker and many other newly elected officials were present in her home and League members and their husbands were able to talk to these busy men on a one-to-one basis. Membership in League is designed to help make a woman an informed, intelligent citizen with a knowledge of the facts. It also provides opportunities to meet and question important officials. The League of Women voters is strictly non-partisan and only supports issues, never individuals. The Woodstock- McIIenry League also has members in Harvard, Marengo and, of course, the countryside.

I THINK ABOUT IT! j OOO Mutual m t H m E Grant Highway By BOB .JUSTEN In a group discussion not too long ago, it was asked why people curse in conversation. It was noted with amazement that some cussers are successful, bril­ liant men, capable of good speech. Cussing is a habit one acquires to add impact to words. Those who lace language with profanity do it because they fear normal expression lacks strength to put a point across. There is no question that the cussine habit can be broken. One man in the group told an interesting story. He related how, years ago, his three year old boy stumbled and stubbed his toe. The child let out with an explosive barrage of cussing which shocked his mother and dad. Before they could say anything, the child slyly sensed their shock. In the quick of a wink, he changed from sinner to saint and started to sing, "Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so." The fellow told how he and his wife, while shocked, had to inwardly chuckle over the surprisingly quick transition of the little rascal. Since habits are mostly formed by association or example, especially with im­ pressionable youngsters, both parents decided then and there to never use even mild profanity ever again. & The son is now a grown man. He is a fine person and an interesting conversationalist. His parents are too.. GEORGE R. JUSTEN & SON FUNERAL HOME, 3519 W. Elm St., McHenry, III. Phone 385-2400.
