State Senator Jack Schaffer, R.-McHenry county, had an opportunity to meet with President (then Viy-President) Gerald R. Ford several days prior to Ford's elevation to the Presidency. President Ford was the featured speaker at a Republican State Senate fund-raising dinner. Senator Schaffer wished the then Vice-President Ford the best of luck, not realizing the tremendous burden the Vice- President was to assume a few days later. President Gerald R. Ford spoke at the annual Republican State Senate dinner several days before he was elevated to the office of President. . President (then Vice- President) Ford was the featured speaker at the annual fun-raising dinner held by Illinois Senators to help finance the reelection campaigns of incumbent Republican Senators In his speech to the over 1,200 people present at the dinner, he emphasized the need for a strong, viable, two-party system in America and praised the collective record of the Republican membership of the Illinois State Senate. He also outlined what he felt was right with America and listed the many successes of the Nixon Administration, particularly in the area of foreign policy. Prior to the dinner, President Ford had an opportunity to meet with the thirty Republican Senators, including State Senator Jack Schaffer, H.-McHenry county, and to discuss the national political scene with him. The Senate dinner was believed to have been the largest dinner ever conducted by the Republican State Senate membership. Young Farmers On Marketing Tour In State Fifty-six Illinois Farm Bureau young farmers are taking part in a marketing tour Aug. 19-21. Among them is Dave Gardner of Solon Mills. The tour is designed to broaden their knowledge of the marketing processes for farm products as well as to provide an insight into the development and marketing of agricultural chemicals and the handling of food. The tour was arranged by the Illinois Farm Bureau field services and commodities divisions. During the three-day tour, the group will visit the Prairie Farms dairy at Carlinville, learn about the Interstate Producers Livestock association feeder pig program, and visit St. Louis Grain corporation's river terminal. In St. Louis, the group will also visit the St. Louis Bank for Cooperatives, the Centralized Food service, the Monsanto company, Busch Brewery, and Kroger's meat cutting and distribution center. On the return trip, they will visit the Archer-Daniels- Midland soybean processing plant in Decatur. Differences of thought among humans vary our outlook on life, just as differences in food alter our menu. Village Board Changes Format At Meetings A couple of changes in format were noted at the village board meeting of Aug. 13. One change is the invitation of audience comment directly after minutes are read and accepted, rather than at the end of the meeting. The other is a breakdown of police calls for the month, besides the regular report of squad mileage and man hours worked. Reports given included that of park and beach trustee Jerry Raycraft, who made a motion to have the wire fence at the east end of the beach repaired or replaced. After some discussion as to cost, and necessity, a majority of trustees voted to have the present fence repaired, and extended to the water's edge. Mr. Raycraft stated the reason for the new raft being taken out of the water is because within a week of its being used, the ladder and cable were broken, through misuse and abuse. It was decided to have the raft repaired, and stored away till next summer, when hopefully, the kids, for whom it was bought, will take care of it. Although the July 10 water testing at McCullom Lake showed an unsatisfactory reading, the beach won't be closed, because there have been no indications of unfavorable reactions to anvone from the water and the count wasn't considered to be at a dangerous level. A man has been hired to chaperone at the village hall, and as of August now, it will be open to kids every Monday night from 6:30 p.m. till approximately 9 or 9:30 p.m. Trustee Lary reported the police officers had worked 187 man hours, and investigated 27 complaints during the month of July. Four speeding tickets were issued. The squad car has been equipped with an oxygen tank, good for 15 minutes, which was supplied subject to approval by the board. Board members unamimously approved buying the equipment, also an extra tank to be carried in the squad car as to be immediately available in an emergency. An engineer's estimate of cost for road work was $15,372, almost $3,000 over what is available in village funds. Trustee Weisenberger said he would like to use what money there is to fix as much as possible starting with the worst trouble spots. He feels a lot of the continual buckling is caused by water and would like to work on culverts too having them extended or installed in the areas they're most needed. Mr Weisenberger will submit ideas of which roads should be taken care of this year at a special meeting Once a plan is approved, bids will go out, so the work can be started as soon as possible. Another matter discussed was approval by th^'county for clerk Karen Parks to issue both rabies tags and dog licenses, upon receipt of a slip from the veterinarian plus a $4 fee. Next board meeting is Tuesday, Sept. 10, at 8 p.m. NEW RESIDENTS Welcome to our new neighbors, John and Elaine Wentzell, formerly of Wonder I^ke.

HOME FROM VACATION Marie Wyman returned home, Thursday, after a three day stay in Missouri. She went to Six Flags with Jerry and Pat Lubin, and their kids, Shelley and Jerry. They spent a lot of time at the amusement park, going on nearly all the rides, which the adults enjoyed almost as much as the kids. FORMAL WEAR RENTAL for ALL OCCASIONS ibsa ....{fa, 1214 N.

MCCULLOM LAKE DEFEATED McCullom Lake all-stars lost for the second time to the Lakeland Park all-stars, Aug. 18. It was a close game, played before a large group of spectators, with the final score lakeland Park, 7, McCullom Lake, 6. Both teams are to be commended for their good sportsmanship through the two games. Following the game, our boys were treated to hot dogs and pop at the Cullom Knoll. In ending the season, all members of the association were to attend a Cub's ball game in Chicago, Aug. 19, and turn in their uniforms. UNDECIDED Though the girl's baseball schedule is behind by at least 3 games, there doesn't seem to be much chance of making them up, and finishing out the season Games have been forfeited by girls not showing up, and at least one manager wishes to close the season now.
