AUTO CRASH CAUSES ONLY MINOR INJURIES (Continued from page 1) Spring Grove and Ringwood roads, north of Johnsburg. Wurm stopped at the sign on Ringwood road, saw no ap­ proaching traffic and pulled out. Buittner said he was north­ bound on Spring Grove road when the other car pulled out in front of him and he was unable to avoid a collision. Both drivers were taken to McHenry hospital by the Johnsburg Rescue squad where they were treated and released. LAUNCH ANNUAL DRIVE FOR HOME (Continued from page l) "We strive to create an at­ mosphere which helps our children learn to live in either their own home or a foster home," explained Redding. "This is more costly than congregate living, but we can prepare a youngster to live in an open society in a relatively short period of time rather than provide care for six or eight years - and then find he needs institutional care for the rest of his life."' In the long run, the cost is much less and the person is greatly aided, given a chance to adjust to society and contribute to others, he summarized. This need for more qualified personnel, more personalized child ' care and more professional therapeutic ser­ vices of course adds to the need for funds at the Woodstock Children's home, a community institution with stature since 1886. Redding said two-thirds of the home's funds come from child-care sources, so the other third comes from friends, churches and organizations. Through the years, con­ tributions from businesses, individuals and industries has been a significant portion of the third that must come from generous-hearted people. A letter has been mailed many citizens urging them to help the home this year. Many others may want to help, and any contribution will be LARGE LOSS IN BURGLARY OF McHENRY HOME (Continued from page 1) were taken from the premises. Donald Roberts, owner of the Reliable Sand and Gravel pit, 2329 Highwood, McHenry, reported to authorities Monday afternoon that when he arrived at the gravel pit office, he saw two juveniles running from the building. He succeeded in detaining one youth but he broke away. Inspection revealed entry had been gained to the office by breaking a window. Missing from the premises was an electric grinder. MUSIN" N' MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) news snows, a balanced presentation becomes almost impossible. With this in mind, the danger in a near monopoi, of the TV airwaves by three commercial networks becomes clear. To date, neither Congress nor the Federal Communications commission (both of whom might well be influenced by the power and money of the net­ works) has mustered the courage or strength to properly r e g u l a t e c o m m e r c i a l television. A presidential bill, backed and passed by Congress and supported by the American people, is probably our best hope. Certainly no one more than the President has seen the reporting excesses of the three networks in recent days. K.A.F. YEAR BOOKS ARRIVE The McHenry high school 1972-73 year books have arrived.

SCHOOL APPROVES CONTRACT FOR GASOLINE SUPPLY (Continuea rrom page 1) beyond what is expected in their normal duties, on behalf of students over the past several years. A member of the audience, in referring to an audit report of the previous month, asked if there is some reason for a 30 per cent increase in the number of teachers this year over 1969 when the enrollments were almost the same. Dr. Boos pointed to Special Education classes as one reason and the opening of a second junior high school, Parkland, as another. Member Dorothy Vick said figures are deceiving, since one class may have more than forty students and another a small number.
