Good salary and other benefits -Make appointment for interview with: Walter Wanqar, Pres. Wien's of Woodstock {8-0761 Local Traveler Views Marks Of Pre-hlstork Days (Written by Hugh Kirk following trip with Farm Bureau to Spain and Africa) Part II "Southeast of Ronda, I drove to LaPileta, high in the mountains. We got out and climbed a long way up the mountain on foot to visit the huge cave containing many animal and fish drawings and other strange markings made by pre-historic men. They were not understandable to us. One of the skeletons has been identified as a person from the Neolithic Age. (In the area of 10,000 years ago.) . "The walk in the cave was wet and dangerous and over a kilometer in depth through^ mammoth rooms with cathedral- l ike cei l ings. Stalagtites and stalagmites were so huge they resembled pillars. "Usual hazards along the road and even in the villages and towns were large herds of goats (100 or more); also, donkeys singly and in pack trains which carry the goods of rural commerce in huge strong baskets on both sides of the animal. "Most of the plowing was done with mules or oxen. Olive trees often hundreds of years old, covered the mountain sides everywhere a ledge could be scraped out. "The cork trees were in­ teresting too as they skimmed off all the bark from the ground high into the branches. Though the trees looked naked, they did not die and in seven years, the process is repeated, we were told." Seek AIdermanic Post These five nien and one woman are seeking to fill the aldermanic vacancy in Ward 4, McHenry. The special election will be held Tuesday, Feb. 5, with voting to take place at the Lakeland Park community house, 1717 N. Sunset avenue. EDWARD M. DRUML, SR. Edward M. Druml, Sr., a fifteen-year resident of the area, lives with his wife, Catherine, at 5219 W. Shore Hill, Lakeland Park. They have four married sons and nine grandchildren. Druml is a technical graduate and attended college, where he majored in Accounting, Business Administration and Industrial. Management. He is employed as general foreman of a manufac­ turing industry in Spring Grove. MAJOR PROBLEMS "1 - The ever increasing contamination and filth of our water­ ways; 2 - Our rapid growth will require the need of enlarged and better hospital facilities; 3 - The present water problem in the Lakeland Park area." IDEAS FQR MEETING THEM "1 - Do what is deemed.necessary to secure funds from local, state or federal agencies to dredge and dean up all tributaries leading to the Fox river. 2 - Support the City Council to expedite and promote the new hospital plans now in process for the south side of McHenry ; 3 - Stimulate and motivate the residents of Lakeland Park to cooperate and support the EPA requests which could and would force a solution to our water conditions." LaVERNE HROMEC 'J Mrs. La Verne Hromec is the first woman to run for alderman in McHenry. She is seeking to fill the unexpired term of her husband, Frank. The Hromecs live at 1611N. Pleasant avenue with their two children, Bob and Beverly. They have owned their home in Lakeland Park since May, 1953. Mrs. Hromec graduated from Catholic Central high, Springfield, Ohio, and attended St. .. Anthony's School of Nursing and Colorado university, both in Denver, Colo. She is presently em­ ployed as a legal secretary in Chicago. Mrs. Hromec belongs to the Citizens Action program (CAP) does church evangelism work and is active politically "in whatever way I feel will further good government, mainly at the local level". She organized the first Cub Scout and Brownie troops in Lakeland Park and was a founder of McHenry County college. COMMENTS "City problems as I see them are traffic congestion, best use of tax money to benefit homeowner, protection through restrictive planning of present and future development and improved drainage in the area. City services needed: safe water, through streets from Lakeland Park and Shores across town, responsive action to complaints voiced and city involvement and leadership in youth recreation. Like it or not, I'm still trying to convince people that Edmund Burke was right when he said, "All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing".

BOX St RONALD MEURER Ronald Meurer of 4814 W. Prairie avenue, McHenry, seeks his first term on the City Council. He is presently serving as a member of the city Planning commission. Meurer, a graduate of Proviso high school, Maywood, has lived in the McHenry area for fifteen years. He and his wife, Barbara, are the parents of two sons, Alan and John, and two daughters, Linda and Shirley. Meurer has worked for twenty years as a screw machine operator and set-up man. He is employed in Crystal Lake. COMMENTS "The water problem in Lakeland Parte is a major concern for our area. Although the city hasnot moved as fast as some would like, it is difficult to do as this is a private concern. I would like to see the city control the water company, either as an owner by buying it at a fair price or at least regulating it with ordinances so any violations can be handled promptly. Being involved with youth for a number of years, I feel that we must have a more active park program." RONALD NYSTROM 4 > Ronald R. Nystrom of 480? W. Shore drive, McHenry, has been a resident of the area for three years. He and his wife, Marilyn, have two children, Robert and Michele. Nystrom works in Wheeling as a plastic fabricator. He graduated from Prospect high in 1963 and entered the plastics field, studying for a time in Germany while in the Arihy. He also has a commercial pilot's license with a multi-engine rating. Nystrom is a member of the Loyal Order of the Moose Lodge No. 3, the Rod and Gun club of No. 3 and the First Airplane club of the Moose. * MAJOR PROBLEMS 1 - To restrict developers of condominiums, apartments and other high density type construction from over populating any area in our town; 2 - To keep the town council from thinking of the merchants first and the homeowners last. 3 - The lack of com­ munication between city hall and the people. IDEAS FOR MEETING THEM 1 - To zone all property to a minimum of 6,000 square feet per living unit. If a developer wanted to build at a higher density, he would have to pay for a referendum. It can be done this way. Long Grove did, Buffalo Grove didn't, now Buffalo Grove has higher taxes, overcrowding and congested streets. Long Grove doesn't. 2 - I would like to see the agenda of the Council meetings published on the front page of your paper in the same spot in every issue before a meeting. ERNEST SCHOOLEY Ernest Schooley, a thirteen-year resident of the area lives with his wife, Pat, at 5219 Victor. They have six children, Bob, Sharon, Cathy, Mary, Danny and Artie. Schooley received his education in Cook county schools and graduated from Elgin. He is employed as a parts manager for a garage in Huntley. Schooley is a fireman with Company One of the McHenry Township Fire Protection district, a member of the Moose and Legion of the Moose and has served for the past two years as vice- president of the Lakeland Park Property Owners' association. MAJOR PROBLEM Lakeland Parte water system. COMMENTS Having lived in the Lakeland Park area for so many years, Schooley feels he knows and shares the problems there. "With the populace growing as it is, Lakeland Park needs to be recognized as a part of the city of McHenry, which it doesn't seem to be right now." LLOYD E.WAGNER Lloyd E. Wagner is seeking his first term as alderman. Wagner and his family, wife, Jerry, daughter, Sharon, and sons, Tom and Dave, have resided at 2006 N. Oak drive, Lakeland Park, since 1959. For twelve years, Wagner operated his own construction business and is a licensed real estate broker and insurance broker. He is now employed as a construction estimator. Wagner's educational background includes attendance at DePaul university's College of Commerce and at McHenry County college, where he specialized in business related courses. He is a past officer for four continuous years of the Department of Illinois Veterans of Foreign Wars anda former Lakeland Park Boy Scout committeeman. COMMENTS "Our greatest problem is still growing pains and having com­ petent people to deal with them on all levels of city government. The worst nightmare facing us is the impossible intersection of Route 120 and Front street (Route 31)." Wagner feels building and zoning violations in Park need correcting. "Parking meters should be banned as they are an indirect tax on the people." He noted that parking lanes are too small and the city's traffic patterns "leave much to be desired". We need a strong voice in the City Council, one who is not afraid to speak up for the 3,000 people involved. This represents about 38 percent of the city population." 2LAFF OF THF WEEK Sr\ art that ted a driver and you know ft!" 20% OFF %I During The Month ^OJ Of February On ^Snowmobiles • Snowblowers • Accessories 20% OFF ON GILSON . . . • Tracktors • Tillers I • Mowers • Vaccums • Compostors All equipment warranted 1 year parts ft labor .
