X PAGE 12-fLAINDEALER-TUESDAY, )ULY 3, 1973 MAN DIES; OTHERS HURT IN CRASHES (Continued from page 1) maneuvers were attempted by both drivers but the collision could not be avoided. ~ Fifteen-year-old Sherry B Voigt of 7716 Brook Drive Wonder Lake, was injured while walking along Wonder Lake road, near Sunset drive, Sunday afternoon about 6 o'clock John R Liggett of 7317 Oak- wood drive. Wonder Lake, was north-bound on the roadway when he observed the Voigt girl and her friend, Phyllis A Laycock of 6718 Niagara drive, Wonder Lake, walking on the east shoulder As he ap­ proached the pedestrians, Liggett said, the Voigt girl seemed to step out toward the pavement. As he passed the girls, Liggett heard a crash and when he slopped, discovered that the mirror on the right side of his truck had hit the girl. He immediately took her to the hospital. Phyllis Laycock told officers they were walking about one foot from the edge of the road and thought they were far enough off the roadway. However, as the truck passed them, it hit the Voigt girl, in­ juring her left arm. Mo statement was available from the Voigt girl. She wa§' treated and released from the hospital. Dawn E. Ingersol of 5100 Maple Hill drive, McHenry, was admitted to McHenry hospital for injuries received in a car-motorcycle accident Friday afternoon about 3:30 at 4803 Barnard Mill road. She was a passenger on a 'cycle driven by Stephen I^oltera of 8712 Hoye road. Ringwood. He was not injured. Richard L. Staggs of 3709 Fillmoor, Johnsburg. was backing from a driveway and was about two-thirds of the way onto the pavement when his car was hit by the 'cycle. Staggs stated he did not see the other vehicle until the collision oc­ curred. Foltera was east-bound on the roadway and saw the auto backing out but thought the driver woulc^ stop. When he failed to do so, he swerved and applied his brakes but could not avoid impact. Poltera was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident. Thomas L Griffith of 1914 Leman boulevard. Lake Villa, was taken to McHenry hospital by the rescue squad after his ca. hit a telephone pole Saturday evening about 11 o clock The one car accident occurred on Orchard Beach road, one-half mile east of Riverside drive. Griffith could not remember anything about the mishap. Officers noted there were no skid marks at the scene. Daniel J. Spanitz of 7720 Beach road. Wonder Lake, was injured early Sunday morning when his motorcycle ran off Tryon Grove road, one-half mile west of Route 31. The Richmond Rescue squad was called to the scene, but Spanitz refused any treatment even though he had suffered cuts and bruises on his face a(nd had injured his ankle, which was badly swollen. Spanitz told deputies he hac become lost, was sleepv andy ISLAND LAKE VILLAGE BOARD •MAKES COMMITMENT (Continued from page 1) allowed. Responsible residents in the community are called upon to support their new "hard line against blight." Ken Coats has been named to take over the important and sensitive responsibilities of Island Lake police chief. In making the announcement, Mayor DeLorenzo cited Coats two and one-half years of service with the department, and expressed his agreement with the Fire and Police committee's choice to fill the vacancy. The new chief said Island Lake has a fine nucleus of young, energetic police officers whoaredcdicatedtoresponsible law enforcement for the village. And he feels a personal involvement in Island Lake, saying he and his family are here to stay because they believe in the town and its future. He had previous police ex­ perience with the Lake County Police department, and while in Vietnam served as a mine demolition expert. He com­ pleted basic police training at Northern Illinois university at DeKalb, attaining a 90.3 academic average. Coats also received one week's narcotics training, attended a course in evidence gathering techniques, and participated in police- community relations in- had fallen asleep while driving. He didn't remember anything else. struction. He is currently at­ tending Lake County college, working for his associate degree in criminology. M U S I N " N ' 1 M i A N D E R I N " (Continued from page 1) McCafferty in Muncie, Ind. A long lime subscriber, Mrs. McCafferty read with interest a story in the Plaindealer about a program engaged in by Wonder Lake Girl Scouts. Realizing it was a good camp-promotion idea, she sent it to the Wapehani council public relations director in Indiana. To her surprise, when she opened a recent issue of the council newsletter, she found the story featured, something which should make young Wonder Lake Scouts happy. For the Girl Scouts of earlier days, it may be of interest to learn that Mrs. McCafferty has maintained an interest in Girl Scouting developed when she and Mrs. Mary Vycital took over the lone McHenry troop. At that time both of them were teachers in what Mrs. Mc­ Cafferty refers to as "the old grade school" (Landmark) in McHenry. She must wear her thirty five-year pin proudly! K.A.F. CONSERVATION MEETING A regular meeting of the McHenry County Conservation district board of trustees will be held in the offices at 142-4 Washington street, Woodstock, at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 5.

George Mally On Operation Health Council George Mally, director of the Family Service and Mental Health Clinic for McHenry County, was recently elected as a member of the council of Operation Health, Inc. This was done at the third annual Citizen's Advisory committee meeting held in Elgin. Operation Health, Inc., is a non-profit health planning agency established in 1971. Under its mandate, Operation Health is a federally designed area wide health planning agency for McHenry, Kane, and Kendall counties. The purpose is to plan in part­ nership with consumers, voluntary, professional and governmental agencies for the health care needs of local communities. The Council of Operation Health, Inc., is composed of consumers and providers of health care. Mally and Joseph Misulonas, M.D., represent the providers on the council for McHenry county, while John Garrett, Jose Samudio, and Robert Conway represent McHenry coun^J^s con- suumers. \l The Council of* OPI has established two\ basic organizational mechanisms: Sub-area planning bodies and a task force structure which include the five major areas of activity: Health manpower, health facilities, mental health, environmental health ^and health data. Mally's term will expire in 1976 Mark Bartos July In State History Soloist With Stage Band Talented tenor, Mark Bartos, will be guest soloist when the McHenry stage band presents its fourth weekly concert in the park Thursday evening, July 5.

Special from the Illinois State Historical society, • Old State Capitol, Springfield) July has been an important month in Illinois political history and it was particularly important in Abraham Lin­ coln's political career. But it was also the month of the state's worst disaster, highest temperature, and race riots. On July 4, 1778, George Rogers Clark and his small army captured Klskaskia from the British, thus making Illinois a county of Virginia and a part of U.S. territory. On July 4, 1837, the cornerstone of the now-reconstructed Old State Capitol in Springfield was laid; and two years later Gov. Thomas Carlin ordered the state offices moved from Vandalia into the new building by July 4. Many of the Illinois July political highlights involved national party conventions held in Chicago, The 1896 Democratic convention heard William Jennings Bryan (who was born at Salem, 111.) deliver his famous "Cross of Gold" speech. Bryan ,won the" nomination and lost the elec­ tion. But Franklin D. Roosevelt fared much better: three of his four elections began with nominations in Chicago in July/ -in 1932,1940, and 1944 (the 1?86 convention was held in Philadelphia). FDR fleW to Chicago to accept / the nomination in person lyf 1932- the first time this was ever done. Both major party con­ ventions of 1952 were held in Chicago in July. The Republicans nominated General Dwight D. Eisenhower and California Senator Richard Ni\on and the Democrats selected Illinois Governor Adlai E. Stevenson and Alabama Senator John Sparkman. Chicago has had other notable conventions but most of them were not in July-Lincoln was first nominated in May, 1860, and the Democratic* convention of 1968 was iii August. t During the years he lived in* Springfield Lincoln usually' spent most of the month of July in court. At first h^1 practiced only in the state* courts but later he made trips,* to the federal court in Chicago.! Lincoln arrived at New Salem; late-in July, 1831, and that ^ month the next year found him, serving in the Black Hawk War.; He also attended political rallies in numerous central* Illinois towns and his famous' series of debates with Stephen^ A. Douglas was arranged byj exchanges of correspondence^ in July, 1858. The state's worst disaster in', , terms of lives lost occurred on; July 24, 1915, when the; steamship Eastland capsized ini the Chicago river. The steamer; had been chartered for the; annual outing of Western- Electric Co. employees. About". 2,500 had gone aboard when; suddenly the top-heavy vessel; turned over on its side. The; accident claimed 812 lives. i The highest temperature! ever registered in the state was; 117 on July 14, 1954 at East St.« Louis. And summer heat was' indirectly responsible for the! Chicago race riot that began in; late July, 1919, touched off by' the death of a black youth while! swimming in Lake Michigan.; The worst downstate race riot1 was probably the one that I occurred in East St. Louis in July, 1917. The deaths of Illinois' second and third governors occurred in 1 July ; Edward Coles in 1868, and Ninian Edwards in 1833. Ulysses S. Grant died at Mt.' McGregor, N.Y. on July 23, 1885. Adlai E. Stevenson II died in London on July 14, 1965, and was buried at his hometown of Bleomington five days later. And John Dillinger, the most notorious criminal of his time, was killed by federal agents as he left a Chicago movie theater July 22, 1934. Inspiration Independence Signers If you had been in Philadelphia on that July day when the Declaration of Independence was signed, what would the future have looked like? Would you have had the courage to lend your name to a document that could have been your death warrant? Jefferson, Adams and Franklin are names familiar to us. Consider for a moment what happened to some of the lesser known of the fifty-six signers of that historic document: Richard Stockton of New Jersey was denounced, dragged from his bed and thrown into prison. His extensive library was burned. He died prematurely, his health broken by mistreatment in prison. Lyman Hall of Georgia had his property confiscated. George Walton of the same state was imprisoned. Caesar Rodney of Delaware left what everyone thought was his deathbed to cast the decisive vote. Afflicted with a cancer that covered half his face, he rode 80 miles through a thunderstorm from Dover to Philadelphia. John Morton of Pennsylvania died eight months after signing, ostracized by friends and relatives. His dying words were: "Tell 4hem that they will live to see the hour when they shall acknowledge it to have been the most glorious service that I ever rendered to my country." Thomas Nelson of Virginia put up his entire fortune as a security for loans needed to continue the struggle for freedom. After the war, he paid them back out of his own pocket. He died a poor man. "Our lives, our fortune and our sacred honor" were not empty words to these men. Show gratitude for their courage by taking steps to protect the inalienable rights given by God to all men - especially the poor, the aged and the defenseless. li If yS" I! ii II II || i:Xv *iv; Local Kiwanis Members Attend Annual Convention Edward Guettler and Robert Beres, both of McHenry Kiwanis club, attended the fifty-eight annual convention of Kiwanis International in Montreal, Quebec. Ap­ proximately 20,000 people-- Kiwanians and their families were on hand for the event. They represented 272,000 Kiwanians in 6,000 clubs in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Europe, Central and South America, the Caribbean, the Far East and the Southwest Pacific Area. This is the second time that Montreal has hosted the Kiwanis convention. It is the largest of its kind in Montreal history. During these three and one- half days of the convention, Kiwanians heard from top personalities: Lorin J. Bad- skey, president of Kiwanis International, North Webster, Ind., who presided; Dr. Nor­ man Vincent Peale, minister of Marble Collegiate church, New York City , Samuel I. Hyakawa, Ph. D., noted educator and speaker; Jack Ossofsky, executive director of the U.S. National Council on the Aging; Miss Mercedes McCambridge, famed actress and 1972 honorary national chairman of the U.S. Council on Alcoholism; Sig Mickelson, a professor of journalism at Northwestern university's Medill School of Journalism; Dr. Cleveland Eneas, Nassau, Bahamas, an articulate spokesman for sociological progress; and the Honorable Jack Austin, Q.C., deputy minister, Department of Energy, Mines and Resources,^ Ottawa, Ontario.
