^4, REVIEW PLAN FOR McHENRY SHORES (Continued From Page 1) the plan, the foor was opened to the public so that those present could be heard. Christopher Quinn asked the commission to clarify the functions and authorities of the three planning agencies responsible for the McHenry county area. It was explained that the Northeastern Illinois Planning commission (NIPC) planned in the broad sense for the seven-county area of northeastern Illinois, and the McHenry County Plan com­ mission planned for the county, while local plan commissions, such as McHenry Shores, planned at the grass roots level. It was pointed out that the local commissions have a greater responsibility for detailed planning and may rely on the first two organizations for data and help in putting together and updating their plans. President Howard Bieritz asked the commission to ex­ plain the large map on display. The chairman said it was a composite of all the detailed maps that appear in the comprehensive plan. It shows possible locations for roads, parks and schools should they be needed in the future. Commission Member Lon Reed pointed out that positioning of a school near the village was difficult because the com­ mission wanted to maintain a six-block maximum walking distance for students yet it needed at least eight acres of land for the facility. Clarence Schweikert of the commission joined Reed in stressing that the maps and plan must be updated continually to handle situations and improvements as the needs arise. Schweikert continued to explain how the commission has already been involved with a local developer concerning a small light in­ dustrial park near Route 31. He pointed out the need to discuss things like drainage and road construction with developers before work begins. This protects the people of the area and the developer, he said, by making sure that no hardship is placed on anyone because of water run-off, inadequate roadbeds or similar problems. Ed Olbinski asked how the commission handled the problem of drainage of the industrial park. Chairman Hoffman explained that the discussions with the developer were informal but that they had suggested water retention ponds to handle run-off or some similar solution to handle the problems. The developer agreed that run-off could be a problem and said he would study the problem further. Mrs. Sandra Moyer questioned the reason for ex­ tending Hilltop boulevard to State Park road, especially in the light of the possibility of a bridge across the Fox river at Bull Valley road which could put a great deal of traffic on Hilltop. The commission members agreed with Mrs. Moyer that this could be a problem if the bridge were built and promised to re-evaluate the possible locations of additional access roads to the village. In connection with the bridge proposed by the McHenry County Highway department across the Fox river at Bull Valley road, Ed Olbinski asked why the plan did not reflect the bridge. Chairman Hoffman stated that while the plan discussed the bridge, it was omitted because the com­ mission's surveys showed opposition to its construction and talks with the county were, at best, preliminary. The commission felt that until a more definitive proposal is presented, it was best left out of the plan. Schweikert read the provisions relating to the bridge for those who did not have copies of the plan. Olbinski asked how the commission felt about McHenry's Plan commission's proposed sewage plant located north of McHenry Shores. Hoffman said the location of a sewage plant was entirely dependent upon who was responsible for its construction. He said, "McHenry put the plant there because they would be responsible for its con­ struction and would derive most of the benefits. .If McHenry Shores ever built a plant, a more suitable location might be found." President Bieritz thanked the commission for continuing the hearing so that the village would not become stagnant and could continue with its plan­ ning.

When the course was started last Fall, there were thirty-eight children, kindergarten through fourth grade, of Spanish, Mexican and Puerto Rican descent enrolled in the program. In the business session of the board meeting, William Tonyan & Sons was announced as general contractor for reconstruction of Valley View school following the recent fire. The figure of $65,000 was given for the general and sub­ contractors' costs. This figure , however, does not include work which has been done to date or for loss of material. The board approved making application for supplementary Title II funds for books, reference and media material for the Parkland library.-flf successful, the application would receive funding in the amount of $12,000. The 12-year-old brother and his 9-year-old sister held responsible for the Valley View fire are back in their classrooms again. That decision came at a hearing of adjudication held at Woodstock last Friday. The hearing was called to allow counsel for the children to submit a plea to Judge Conrad Floeter. The judge, who had made the decision that the children remain out of school following the fire, last Friday issued a court order for their return to school. A continued hearing will be held April 9 concerning the plea. At this time a second attorney will be named so that each child will have counsel. The local board of education and administrators are keeping in contact with the Court Services, waiting to learn the scope of the court order. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued From Page 1) was piled high with a variety of items. They were not an in­ dication that our mind was filled with momentous thoughts, but certainly at this point it was filled with thoughts of the impending deadline for the P'laindealer's centennial issue. If our own thoughts were not consequential, certainly the items hidden in the deep pile of collected items were very important. Many of them were histories of local churches, clubs and service organizations. They contain information that promises to present, as completely as possible, the growth and progress of McHenry over the past 100 years and more. April 1 is our established deadline. Any items that arrive in our office after that date will cause a real hardship in compiling the various sections of an issue which will be well over 100 pages. If you want to give a child a little chick or duckling this Easter, you'll have to settle for the stuffed variety. Maybe that's for the best.* And if you like your rabbits colored blue, green or pink, you'll also have to settle for a doll. The same law that says it is illegal to give a live baby duck or chick as a pet, also prohibits selling them dyed or artifically colored. The director of the Depart­ ment of Agriculture, which administers the Humane Care for Animals act, feels the people who give these little animals to children have the best of intentions. Even so, many youngsters are unable to take care of the small fowl, and fail to understand that live animals need careful handling. If the animal dies from rough handling, it causes the children the unnecessary sadness of Ticket Drivers After Minor Local Accidents PAGE 3 A one-car accident at the corner of Gfeen street and Waukegan road Wednesday, March 19, about 6 p.m. resulted in two tickets being issued to EASTER GREETINGS (Continued From Page 1) p.m.; Rt. 120, 3 to 4 p.m.; Riverside drive, 10 a.m. to noon; Elm street, noon to 1 p.m.; Green street, 1 to 3 p.m. and McHenry hospital, 3 to 4 p.m. Between 4 and 5 o'clock, the bunnies will visit the businesses of Chamber members who are not in the locations listed. The Chamber is hopeful the bunnies will extend the Happy Easter wishes of its members' to McHenry residents. ANNOUNCE CHOICE FOR GIRLS STATE (Continued From Page 1) established on all levels of government. Participants campaign for city, township, county and state offices. The purpose of Girls State is to allow representatives from throughout Illinois an op­ portunity to learn more about how governments function. Girls State is sponsored by the American Legion auxilairy. Dawn is an honor roll student, is active in the Girls Athletic association and plays on the girls' varsity basketball. She was a cheerleader and member of the Pep club for three years. Her hobbies include water skiing, boating, snowmobiling and baton twirling, for which she has won fifty-six trophies and thirteen medals in com­ petition. She traveled in Mexico for one month in 1972 as a twirler with the Mexican Friendship band. A performer at McHenry high school half time programs and for variety shows, Dawn is listed in "Who's Who in Baton Twirling". Ellen is a member of the Student Council, G.A.A., Ski club, Drama club, A.F.S. and Pep club, she participates in interscholastic sports and is on the honor roll. The junior student was recipient of the Kiwanis academic achievement award in Junior high school. DOCTORS APPEAL IN VIOLATION OF CONTRACTS (Continued From Page 1) doctors left the employment of MMG on Jan. 1, 1974, and did open, maintain and operate offices for the practice of medicine with an area of less than fifteen miles from MMG offices in violation of their written agreements of em­ ployment. Judge Gleason ruled that the employment contracts were "valid and not against public policy and were fully en­ forceable." He also ordered that MMG was entitled to "injunctive relief". However, it was ruled that since Doctors Papa and Baxamusa had amicably settled their differences with MMG and had arrived at a settlement disposing of any and all differences arising out of the matter, the court decreed that the issuance of an injunction against the two doctors be stayed and the court would retain jurisdiction of the case for the purpose of entering such orders in the future. losing a pet, as well as causing pain to the animal. We are assured that an especially watchful eye is being kept for violations during the Easter season. More than a few people will agree that this law is long overdue. "As the Springtime blossoms their laden censers sway, May they add their sweetness to your Easterday". No 1975 Easter card will carry that message. Never­ theless, it's one of our treasured possessions, a card from another era sent to us signed only by the Easter Rabbit. K.A.F. Jeffrey L. Rettig of 3709 W. Clover, McHenry. He was charged with driving while intoxicated and leaving the scene of a property damage accident. A witness told city police he saw Rettig's south-bound auto apply its brakes, travel up onto the median strip, hit a sign, return to the street and then continue south-bound. Rettig reported he knew he had damaged his car but left the scene to go home. Francis Strom bach of 5203 Fountain lane, McHenry, was cited for improper left turn following an accident last Thursday afternoon at 1600 Industrial drive. Scott Strange of 1911 North avenue, McHenry, told police he was south-bound on Industrial when Strombach made a left turn in front of him and they collided. Ms. Strombach said she was north-bound and started to make her turn when the other auto hit the front of her car. A ticket for improper backing was issued to Dean L. Hamil of 607 S. Barreville road, McHenry, following impact between two vehicles at the intersection of Elm and Rich­ mond ' road last Thursday evening. According to police, a van driven by John W. Wise of 1514 W. Pine, McHenry, was behind Hamil'scar at the intersection. Hamil said his car was tapped in the rear by the van. He then put his car into reverse and hit the van. Wise said he saw Hamil put his car into reverse but was unable to avoid a collision due to the vehicles in line behind him. Jesse Robertson of 361 Kelsey road, Barrington, was ticketed for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident after a rear- end accident Wednesday, March 19 at 9:25 a.m. The accident occurred at the in­ tersection of Elm and Green streets. According to the police report, Rosemarie T. Pintozzi of 3119 Riverstream, McHenry, was proceeding east on Elm. As she approached the in­ tersection, the light changed to amber and she began braking her auto to stop when she was hit in the rear by a tractor- trailer truck driven by Robertson. Robertson contended Ms. Pintozzi was partially through the intersection when she applied her brakes. She stopped and he hit the rear of her auto. Broadview Man Arrested On Drug Charge Russell J. Lag of 3036 Sunny Dale, Broadview, was arrested by city police for unlawful possession of cannabis and avoiding a traffic control device last Friday morning. The arrest was made after Officer John Langdon observed an auto driven by Lag avoid the stop sign at the corner of Riverside drive and Broad street by driving over the sidewalk, grass and curb and then proceed south-bound on Riverside drive. As officers approached the auto after stopping it, they detected the smell of burning cannabis. Lag and his passengers, Michael D. Hinger of 1615 N. Woodlawn park, McHenry, and David Caldarazzo of 2215 Lemoyne, Melrose Park, were taken to the police station, where charges were placed against Lag. He is to appear in court April 3. The two passengers were released with no charges pending. JUST ARRIVED AND DON'T KNOW WHICH WAY TO TURN?

It was called to members' attention that the new net program cost per student rather than an average all-program tuition which has been in effect, will result in increased tuition costs for District 156. This will be the case because the only students tuitioned to SEDOM from this district are in highly specialized, low-incidence programs. The average cost per student was reported to be $1,200, and for severe cases, $2,200. Mrs. Catherine Alvary, who represehts the local board on SEDOM, noted that the fiscal picture of this Special Education district is confusing. The board took action to abolish the Working Cash fund in accordance with a section of the School Code of Illinois. By authorizing the abolishment of this fund at the end of this 1974- 75 fiscal year, the district can provide for a decrease in the accumulated deficit in the Educational fund of about $243,600. However, this will not change the overall debt since surplus money in one fund is just being tranferred to another fund. It is possible according to the School Code for re- establishment of the fund at a future date. A motion was approved favoring the Title III N.D.E.A. project which will be 41 per cent funded by National Defense Education act The program includes items for the East campus Social Science program, a kiln for West campus Art department, an art slide program for the East campus Art Appreciation unit, recorders, headsets and a tape for the basic Math program at West, and a metal cutting band saw with tooling for the East campus Industrial Arts department. The total project cost is $2,377.62, of which the district share of costs amounts to $1,402.80 and the N.D.E.A. share, $974.82. Revised copies of the articles of joint agreement for the McHenry County Area Career center were distributed, identifying revisions. One section concerned a provision that in no event will payments from any district exceed the sum raised by the tax levy in the, individual district. An addition assures the individual district that its assessment for construction and related costs will not ex­ ceed the amount of money raised by the tax levied for that purpose. v Another addition provides that all policy be approved by a two-thirds favorable vote. Some time was devoted to a request for Kim Hagen to receive a leave of absence from May 19 through 28 to report for active duty with his National Guard unit. Both Hagen, a West campus teacher, &nd the ad­ ministration made every effort to postpone this obligation, but were unsuccessful. Because the board had no current policy regarding such a situation, a recommendation was made that the teacher be granted a leave with pay providing he pay for a sub­ stitute teacher for the time he is absent. Following a discussion, a decision was made to make a further attempt for a post­ ponement until summer. If this fails, the district will employ a substitute teacher. Hagen will not be compensated for his time away from school. Prior to a vote to employ Donald E. Bark to conduct the annual district audit, Member Edward Neumann indicated his reluctance to approve. To a question by Phillip Bartmann as to whether or not bids had been asked, President James Althoff commented that it was his opinion that it was difficult to bid on this type of service. However, when he was informed that this was sometimes the case, Althoff recommended obtaining three bids. The board accepted the resignation of Carl Ames, director of Transportation, with a statement of ap­ preciation for his efforts ir^ behalf of the school tran­ sportation program. His resignation becomes effective April 1. Plans are being formulated for the annual building com­ mittee tour of both campuses this spring. No date was scheduled. It was noted that the district is corresponding with thirteen different architectural firms for the purpose of reviewing information on remodeling and building. Two board members are needed to serve on the initial screening committee. At one point ip the meeting, Althoff asked Business PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MARCH 28, 1975^ Manager Kelley the cost for" operation of a bus. Kelley said it was .87 per mile, and the average life of a bus is six and two-thirds years. Althoff said the .87 figure was difficult to understand when graveUrucks operate at .50 a mile. After some discussion, it was concluded that the frequent stops and use of different types of fuel might be at least par­ tially responsible. Approval was made of election judges for the April 12 school board election. Payment will remain the same as last year, $25. The board approved a student teaching agreement with Northern Illinois university for the 1975-76 school year. A request made by Katherine Dornbush, allowing for her sixth semester early graduation, was approved.
