/ COMMEND STUDENTS IN MERIT PROGRAM ( Continued from jN^e 1L Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test-National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT-NMSQT). Commended students are in the upper 2 Ent of those who are ted to graduate from high in 1975. Although the Commended students ranked hfgh on the PSAT-NMSQT, their scores were just below those of the 15,000 Semifinalists wfho were announced in September by NMSC; Commended students do not cbntinue in the Merit Scholarship competition. Edward C. Smith, president of NMSC, said: "The high standing of Commended students in the Merit Program shows their great promise, and their attainment in this nationwide program deserves public recognition. The Commended students should be encouraged to continue their education. Both these students and our nation will benefit from their further educational and personal development. To increase their scholarship opportunities NMSC reports the Commended students' names to the regionally accredited colleges they named as their first and second choices when they took the PSAT-NMSQT in October 1973. The reports include home addresses, test scores, and anticipated college major and career intentions of the Commended students.

MUSIN" N' MEANDERIN" ( Continuedfrom page 1) accept new ideas more readily. But more important is the population shift from the farm to urban areas. 4-H is meeting the changes and challenges. Increased emphasis has been placed on projects and activities that indirectly offer vocational and career guidance to young people. Many of these changes make 4-H equally as appealing and useful to the urban boy and MEDICAL CENTER PLANS TO STATE (Continued from page 1) hospital personnel, medical- dental staff, health agencies, patients, and intra-community leaders for their cooperation and suggestions. We share with them a sense of achievement in the functional and creative plans which this cooperation has produced." During his presentation, Olsen stressed the unique concept of the regionally- planned Northern Illinois Medical center. He pointed out that McHenry county has had no accredited facilities for short-term psychiatric hospitalization; for inpatient treatment of alcoholism and drug addiction; for longrterm onging rehabilitation; 'for psychogeriatric programs such as day or nightcareof the aged; and for a day care program for emotionally disturbed children. "Our role is to act as catalyst in getting this Medical center started and in helping to in­ stitute these program," he said. "When we term our regiony wide program a Foundation for Human Resources, we are talking about bringing about the highest realization of each patient's physical, mental, and emotional potential." •'We have taken this responsibility and have engaged in this task because we have been fortunate in at- girls as to those who live on farms.

K.A.F. tracting extraordinarily gifted members of the medical, dental and other health-car professions. In the midst of a medically deprived region (one physician per 17,500 population), we have the- resources of talent and facilities to pinpoint the needs which are evident to us. "Perhaps this is why we have undertaken this immense task: because we can see so clearly where the present limits are, where we are frustrated in our efforts to provide com­ prehensive care." The central hospital, as planned by the architects, will consist of a two-story base or chassis, which will ac­ commodate greatly expanded faciltities, equipment, and staff. The first floor of the chassis will contain emergency facilities, outpatient services, radiology, surgery-deli very, recovery room, intensive care unit, administration and medical records. The ground floor beneath the first floor will accommodate pathology and clinical laboratories, central stores and sterile supplies, pharmacy department (supplemented by pharmacy units on each patient-care floor), dietary and other support services. The four-story patient-care tower will contain ap­ proximately 200 beds for the acutely ill. Shaped like a four- leaf clover, the tower consists of a central core and on each floor clusters of patient rooms encircling nursing control centers. "The cluster plan for patient rooms is designed to help nurses to maintain constant surveillance of all the patients in her cluster, while at the same time bringing each one COUNTY AGREES TO FUNDING FOR BRIDGE below the amount asked by the officers. The amount agreed upon was a compromise, with 17 in favor and 5 approved. No local board members voted in opposition, but Thomas Huemann of McHenry passed. Member George Starr ob­ jected to the motion, and asked for an explanation. He ex­ pressed an opinion that all county employees should receive the same increases. "Others received their bigger raises last year", observed Member Robert Klemm. He said the Finance committee, to which he belongs, felt deputies were entitled to the increase at this time. An argument followed in which Starr noted that a recent study revealed county deputies were better paid than other county employees. Edward Buss of McHenry, who heads the Finance com­ mittee, admitted that he had voted against the committee motion asking for the 2 per cent within a few steps of her central nursing administration station," stated Olsen. Systems management is evident in the design package of the hospital. Vertical transport systems, weight- bearing walls for the at­ tachment of mobile storage, and molded accessories which facilitate sterile environment are provided. "It is our hope that the State of Illinois health-car authorities involved in the approval of our plans will expedite their perusal and endorsement," Olsen said. "Our target date for breaking ground on our 100- acre site is June 30, 1975." Most All Of Our McHenry Area Neighbors WiN Be Receiving A Copy Of This Letter in the Not Few Dap.

He said he didn't think it would be possible to raise all salaries by this amount. In spite of his personal op­ position, Buss observed that a comparison with city base pay for officers prompted the committee to take action to equalize salaries. He said the recommendation for the 2 per cent increase would make the deputies the second highest paid police officers in the county. H was pointed out that among the _ three largest municipalities, Crystal Lake is highest, with a pay scale of $13,512 a year. Woodstock and McHenry, paying monthly list $1,050 and $960, respectively. Someone interjected at this point to suggest that it would be difficult to qualify for the Crystal Lake department because of its rigid testing requirements. Huemann asked why the board did not use the personnel study of sheriff's employees as a basis for its decision. Member William Hubbard, in an apparent attempt to bring the proposal to a vote, pointed to the increase in the cost of living, adding that he felt the 2 per cent was justified. He then made a motion that it be ap­ proved. After much discussion, the board agreed to a recommen­ dation of the Valley Hi Nursing committee that the McHenry County Civil Defense depart­ ment be authorized to erect a storage building on Valley Hi property. Member Robert Klemm suggested that a building on the fairgrounds might be used for storage. In response, Member Charles Weingart of McHenry, who heads the Fair association, said no buildings are available. Weingart suggested, however, that a larger building than the 2,000 square feet structure planned, be erected. After further discussion, Board Chairman Walter Dean said he would ask all county departments for information on their storage needs. The size of the building will be determined by the outcome. An ordinance was passed which affects license fees paid by pet owners. The annual fee for original or renewal registration will be $4 for each dog, except that individual registrations will not be required for dogs confined in kennels at all times. » The owners of confined dogs will pay a registration fee of $15 SENIOR CITIZENS FREt HEARING TfeSTS SET FOR WEDS I S PM R.0.

A resolution was passed to act on the existing scavepger sale ordinance which wittpiace 400 parcels of land, delinquent 10 years or more, for sale. Reporting for the Zoning committee, Member Willis Simnfs of McHenry told members a study is being made of all county contractors, and several -- as many as fifteen -- have been listed as "un­ scrupulous" in the in­ vestigation. Approval was given to a consolidation of existing committees as recommended by the Legislative and Public Affairs committee. The allotment to McHenry township in Motor Fuel Tax funds for August amounted to $2,997.90 for 74.67 miles of roads, according to a report made to the board.
