You may remember that two members. James Althoff and Kathryn Alvary, voted "no", Joan Higgins. James Tonyan and Donald Arvidson favored the proposal Edwin Neumann and Phillips Bartmann were ab­ sent. "True, this is a 90-day trial period "and 1 hope public pressure will change their attitude. "As a 12-year board member of the McHenry County American Cancer society and also a four-year director of the State of Illinois American Cancer society, 1 feel it is my duty to share some thoughts with the school board mem­ bers. parents and educators "Most lung cancers are caused by cigarette smoking. This can be prevented by avoiding the cause. The estimated new cases and deaths from lung cancer in 1975 is 91,000 cases. The male mortality rate has increased more than twenty times in forty-five years and is going up steadily in women. The major thrust of the A.C.S. effort is to educate Americans, especially young people-regarding the personal health, hazards of cigarette smoking We of A.C.S. must expand educational BEACH GALS The Dec. 4 meeting will concern the children'^ Christmas party, also the beach gals party, and all members should try to attend Reservations have to be made shortly for the gals party, and it is important to know how many plan to go. programs for primary and secondary school students with new emphasis on teacher in­ volvement and teachers as examplers. while maintaining the position that smoking areas should not be provided on school grounds or in school buildings. "We have available excellent films, literature and full programs for schools. Three women in McHenry will volunteer help and information. They are Mrs. Alfred H. (Pat) Roth, Jr., Mrs Daniel (Joyce) Adams and Mrs. Frank (Ilavern) Gregory. "Let me share this statement sent by Illinois division of ACS to Michael Bikalis Aug. 6, 1974 " Whereas: Teen-agers who /moke use more drugs, and " "Whereas: by the fourth grade elementary school, as high as one-third of the students in some groups tried smoking, and " Whereas: by the twelfth grade, as high as 42 percent are regular smokers and 23 percent of them smoke one-half pack a day or more, and " Whereas: the dangers of tobacco have been required teaching for many years, but given a very small amount of attention by most teachers, and " Whereas: the Illinois Joint Committee on School Health, May 4. 1967, passed a resolution that teachers should not smoke in schools or in the presence of students, " Therefore, be it resolved that there be no areas of smoking in schools for either teachers or students. ' "I am sending each board member a sampling of pam­ phlets prepared by A.C.S. on smoking so that they might know what is available to the schools. "Smoking in school washrooms and on the grounds is a most difficult problem I do not mean to criticize teachers, board members, or ad­ ministrators. but I must speak out against allowing smoking in the building or on the grounds of either East or West campus high school. "Mrs Ilavern Gregory" IN ECONOMIC SWAMP "Editor; "Up to the present time -approximately $15,000,000 of taxpayers' money has been spent in the attempt to indict President Nixon and his staff of misdemeanors ranging from playing dirty tricks on politicians of the opposite sect to breaking and entering the office of one of these politicians.

"Many were t r ied and sen fenced to pr ison. The President was forced to res ign because he apparent ly thought , when he learned about i t , that reveal ing information about the break-in would have an adverse effect nat ional ly - which i t d id . "Though the cr imes were of l i t t le consequence, ja i l sen­ tences were meted out , some severe, and our President was disgraced - and we were bored with reports of Watergate morning, noon, and night for two years . "Though the worst of this ordeal is over, we are still exposed to oft repeated details that must bore even the reporters who give them. "Yet oil, gas, and now sugar shortages occur, real or faked, causing people nationally great expense, grief, and in­ convenience and the govern­ ment pays only casual at­ tention. These shortages may be legitimate or just seeded rumors but the fact is that as soon as prices are manipulated to a high point all again become plentiful. "We probably would not be so deeply mired in this economic swamp if our Congress and Senate had minded the store instead of trying to establish a record for the most expensive investigation of a misdeameanor in the history of this or any other country.
