5# TELL CRACKDOWN ON BICYCLE OFFENDERS (Continued from page 1) "Persons riding bicyles upon a roadway shall not ride more than two abreast except on paths or parts of roadways set aside for the exclusive use of* bicycles; "No person shall operate a bicycle at a speed greater than is reasonable and prudent under the conditions then existing; "The operator of a bicycle emerging ,from an alley, driveway or building shall, upon approaching a sidewalk or the sidewalk area extending across any alleyway, yield the right-of-way to all pedestrians approaching on said sidewalk or sidewalk area, and upon entering the roadway shall yield the rigty-of-way to all vehicles approaching on said roadway; "No person operating a bicycle shall carry any package, bundle or article which prevents the rider from keeping at least one hand upon the handle bars. "No person shall park a bicycle upon a street other than upon the roadway against the curb or upon the sidewalk in a rack to support the bicycle or against a building or at the curb, in such a manner as to afford the least obstruction to pedestrian traffic. "No person shall ride a bicycle upon a sidewalk within a business district. "Whenever any person is lawfully riding a bicycle upon a permitted sidewalk area, such person shall yield the right-of- way to any pedestrian and shall give audible signal before overtaking and passing such pedestrian." TAX PROBLEMS AIRED BY COUNTY COLLEGE BOARD (Continued from page 1) district, talk to them all," he said. Weidner concluded by noting, "When the voters elected me, they sure didn't elect me to straighten out their tax problems". Three district residents had contacted the college prior to the board meeting and asked permission to speak on the tax resolution. Rudolph Koenig, Jr., of Crystal Lake representing the Algonquin Township Taxpayer's league; A1 Nowakowski representing the Involved Citizen's^ association, and Forrest Hare, Algonquin township assessor, addressed the board. Koenig felt it was the school board's business to teach students and build a campus, not get involved in the tax assessment business. Nowakowski urged the board to check into tax discrepencies. He felt there was about 20 million dollars of un­ derassessments in just Districts 47 and 155, which was a small area compared to the seventeen townships in the-' college district. He felt it would be worth the board's time and effort to undertake the task. Hare said that school boards have the right to appeal un­ derassessments because they have an interest. He also noted that school districts in Boone county had appealed un­ derassessments and had been successful in some cases. Following executive session, it was announced that Dr. James R. Davis had been rehired to serve as college president for another two years. .Trustee Gerald Smith announced the decision was unanimous and the board praised Dr., Davis for the ex­ cellent job he had done for the past two years. Dr. Davis reportecHhat at the June 8 meeting of the Capital Development board, the funds should be released for the campus construction program. Representatives of the college will meet with the Capital Development board June 19 to present drawings.

In a report from the salary negotiation committee, Trustee Smith said the faculty is requesting raises "something under 7 percent". Because of the financial position of the college. Smith noted it was very difficult for the committee to come up with any satisfactory salary negotiations. He pointed out that there were very minimal salary increases last year for the faculty and the administrations got no raises. "How can we continue to sit and negotiate with these people when we are told there is no money in the till? Smith questioned. Smith quoted from a tax bill relating to Crystal Lake property which gave the grade school district $117.01; the high school $112.93 and the McHenry County college $5.51. Smith felt there was no way the college could operate on a balanced budget without a tax increase. Dr. Davis said the college "must operate on a balanced budget or you are digging a hole and it just can't be done. We are digging a hole," he stressed. Bids were approved for purchase of the following equipment: $272.00 for graphic arts; $1,191.50 for audio visual and $75.95 for automotive equipment. Board chairman, Mrs. Barbara Pautz, presented an honorary gavel to Trustee Herb Lutter in appreciation for his past service as chairman of the board. The board accepted, with regret, the resignations of three faculty members: George Chandler, instructor of Photography; Irving Jackson, instructor of police science and Donna Morphew, instructor of English. Ozzie Rometo was hired as a full-time instructor of Art and Photography to replace George Chandler. Also hired were Ralph Fidler as full-time in­ structor in the Welding department and Mrs. Carol Beers as a reference librarian. The next regular meeting of the board will be held June 28 at the Crystal Lake campus.

BICYCLES INVOLVED IN TWO CRASHES NEAR McHENRY (Continued from page 1) Farrand said at no time did he see a bike or hit anyone. He didn't know how his auto had been damaged. Biederer reported he was east-bound on the highway when he was struck from behind and knocked off his bike. Farrand was ticketed for driving while license was suspended or revoked and for leaving the scene of a personal injury accident. Bond was set at $2,000, with court date scheduled for June 17. An accident Friday morning on Orchard Beach road, just east of Riverside drive, in­ volving a mini-bike, a trail bike and an automobile, resulted in tickets being issued to the two bike riders. Howell H. Breidenfeld of 1812 N. Riverside drive and Paul T. FORD nfMAC DONALD Sroka of 1924 Orchard Beech road, both of McReriry, were ticketed bv deputies for no valid registrations and no valid drivers' licenses. The two bikes were trailing down the road when the Breidenfeld bike hit the rear of Sroka's bike. Sroka jumped off the bike and it skidded onto the road where it was hit by a car driven by Tamara P. Mills of 2604 W. Kashmiri, McHenry. No one was injured in the mishap. Edward C. Hunter of Pell Lake, Wis., was transported to McHenry hospital by the Johnsburg Rescue squad following a one-car accident Sunday evening at 5204 N. Route 31. According to a report in the sheriff's office. Hunter was north-bound on the highway when a pickup truck which was tailgating caused him to become so disturbed that he drove onto the shoulder of the road. He lost control of his vehicle and ran into a tree. Hunter was ticketed for failure to stop, exchange in­ formation and make an im­ mediate police report. Terrance Pauley of 2909 N. Magellan drive, McHenry, was ticketed for following too closely after a two-car accident Saturday afternoon at the corner of Richmond and Elm streets. Lenore D. Oakes of 3211 Beach, McHenry, was south­ bound on Richmond road. As she approached Elm, she stopped as the light changed and was hit in the rear by the Pauley auto. Pauley told police he saw the light change to red but knew there was a green arrow and thought the other driver did too. When the Oakes auto stopped, he tried to avoid a collision but was unable to do so. Robert W. Mueller of 4500 Parkway, McHenry, was cited for improper backing after he backed into an auto driven by Kevin L. Schultz of 1800 North street, McHenry. The mishap took place at the Clark Service station, 3809 W. Elm street, Sunday evening. The Schultz auto was parked at the gas pump when Mueller backed into the vehicle. MUSIN" N1 MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) We enjoyed the Memorial day parade, as we always do. Certainly those who watch from the sidelines each year are indebted to those men, women and children who faith­ fully participate annually in a line of march which brings pleasifi^to so many and at the same time commemorates something which should be important to all of us. It was with regret that we watched a Viscount drum and bugle corps much reduced in number. Even so, we were extremely proud to see some young people loyally taking their place in the line of march. With such determination, we have high hopes that the corps may become strengthened in the marching season ahead. K.A.F.

WANT MOKE INFORMATION? Writa Today's Health Magatinm CF, 535 North Dearborn Strool Chicago, Illinois 60610 ft New reason to stop smoking... For years it has been known that infants born to mothers who smoke cigarettes tend to be small­ er in size, on the average, than those bom to non-smoking moth­ ers. Now, according to the nation­ al Public Health Service's annual report to Congress on the health aspects of cigarette smoking, about 4,600 still-births a year can probably be accounted for by the smoking habits of the babies' mothers. There is "strong, prob ably casual, association between cigarette smoking and higher late fetal and infant mortality among smokers' infants," sftys the report. If the woman gives up smoking by the fourth month of pregnan­ cy, however, the risk to her baby appears to vanish. Apparently, he danger to the fetus is not a result of the mother's long-term smoking habits -- but of the more specific toxic effects on the infant while she is carrying it. Find a float to save a life . . . A swimmer in trouble and there's no bona fide life preserver a- round? Try a canoe paddle, water ski, or even fallen tree branch to keep him afloat until help arrives, says the National Safety Council. According to the Council, many drownings could be avoided if people were aware of the dozens of commonplace objects that will MILK DAY WILL BECKON CROWDS THIS SATURDAY (Continued from page 1) sound the final note. The parade, according to chairman Joe DeMay, will have over 100 units. William D. Revelli, director emeritus of University of Michigaivbands, editor of "Music EWorld", will be the adjudicator of the day. Included in the march will be sixteen area high school bands and six drum and bugle corps.

Orion Samuelson of WGN radio will be master of ceremonies for the afternoon program from the stands, which will include in­ troductions of dignitaries, awarding of trophies, a mayor's milking contest, a milk drinking contest, plus the crowning of the new 1973 milk queen. Harvard high school's Future Farmers of America have arranged tours of three dairy operations, on the James Pribble, Howard Perkias and Arthur M. Kruckenberg farms.
