EXPECT 1,000 STUDENTS IN 1975 SUMMER SCHOOL (Continued from page 1) selors, social workers, etc., with instructors working in a coordinated-integrated ap­ proach where their expertise will be shared not only with other special teachers, but also with the regular classroom teacher. The proposal will be sub­ mitted next October and acted upon in January. If funding is approved, it will be for the 1976- 77 school year. The tentative budget to improve the program lists $74,000 for personnel and material, fully funded the first year. The second year, 85 per cent, or $62,900 would be fun­ ded, and the third year, 50 per cent, or $37,000. An alteration of the school calendar was approved. One snow day remains, and if it is not needed for that purpose, May 26, the federal govern­ ment's observance of Memorial day, will be used as a non- attendance day, as well as the state of Illinois observance, May 30. Inservice half days were approved as Oct. 30 and 31, March 25, and 26 and April 30. In other business, Inlander Bros., Inc., Chicago, submitted the low bid of $1.29 a ream to supply mimeograph and duplicator paper. The board approved an ad­ ministration recommendation that book rental fees for Grades 1 through 8 remain the same next year. They are $13 for Grades 1-5 and $17 for Grades 6- 8. The board agreed to extra duty stipend recommendations offered. The only change in the elementary schools is that involving playground super­ vision. Only Edgebrook school utilizes certificated staff members as playground supervisors and there is a discrepancy between their stipend and that of the Junior high school staff on the same site for the same responsibility. As a result, an increase of $50 was made at Edgebrook, from $350 to $400. Another recommendation was accepted to increase the junior high chorus director's stipend by $50 for the reason that the number of students participating in this activity has increased greatly. Since the athletic directors at Junior high and Parkland schools have assumed greater responsibilities in athletic activities, it was voted also to increase their stipend by $50. Resignations were accepted from Aileen T. Claybaugh, who has been on leave of absence from Hilltop fifth grade, and Candice North, Hilltop third grade teacher. A resolution recognizing twenty-five years of excellent service to the district by Mrs. Claybaugh was approved. Jacklyn Allen was employed as an aide at Hilltop and Steve Toole as custodian at Junior high. Among non-certificated personnel, the resignations of Ruth Nordal and Kathleen Coles, aides at Hilltop, were accepted. A report was made on completion of the Master educational plan. The program is an effort of citizens, teachers and administrators to study priorities which will assist the board in budget plans. Following an. executive session, the board adjourned until April 16 at 7:30 at the central office, when votes from the April 12 election will be canvassed and the board reorganized.

Pleasant, McHenry Public Hearing On Waste Plan The Illinois Environmental Protection agency will hold a public hearing Friday, April 11, in Elmhurst to discuss the possible designation of Cook, DuPage, Kane, Lake, McHenry and Will counties' as a area- wide waste treatment management planning area and the Northeastern Illinois Planning commission (NIPC) asvthe agency responsible for the planning. Under federal law, the "national goal," to be reached by 1983, is water quality that "provides for the protection and propagation of fish, shellfish and wildlife and provides for recreation in and on the water," according to LeVerne Hudson, Illinois EPA's manager of the Water Pollution Control division. "In this six-county jirea. municipal and industrial wastewater and stormwater and construction site runoff contribute to pollution of out- lakes and streams. In addition, septic tank drainage and farmland runoff may also cause localized problems," Hudson explained. He con­ tinued : "The problems here are serious and complex. We must develop economical and ef­ fective solutions for them. But, to do so in an area as large and complicated as northeastern Illinois will be a big job. "We feel that the best way to deal with this is on a six-county, area-wide basis. This planning . approach stresses analysis of region-wide problems by areawide planning agencies. It give agencies such as NIPC the opportunity to work with local governments to find solutions to the area's water quality problems. "Local electe be at the hearti we'll also see ml citizens and business and in­ dustry representatives," Hudson concluded.. * Following the hearing, should the designations be made, and should the U.S. EPA approve the designations, NIPC would be eligible for a two-year federal planning grant to prepare an area-wide waste treatment mangement plan for the designated area. The hearing will be held at the Science Center auditorium of Elmhurst college, Elm Park avenue and Prospect street, Elmhurst, beginning at 9:30 I officials will g. I hope that •ested private BANK NOTES Q BY DONALD DALEY PRESIDENT FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF McIIENRY " PIGGY There is little about our barnyard friend that should relate it historically to the little savings bank that has been around as long as one can remember . . . "piggy banks" to teach kids to "save for a rainy day" etc. They liave been made for years in a hundred and one shapes as well as in the classic image of a pig, but the "piggy bank" concept underlies this age-old me­ thod of saving . . . it is an "Old Master" among terms synonymous with thrift. How did it come about? Evidently a bit of coin­ cidence mixed with a dash of misinterpretation. In England during the late Middle Ages, metal for manufacturer into kitchen utensils was almost non existent, what was used for dishes, pots and jars was a clay that was commonly known as "PYGG". It was BANK" so generally used that a l l earthenware was referred to as "pygg". Housewives were not much different in those days . . . they "put a little aside" and in a natural storage place for keeping . . . a kitchen jar made of "pygg." This type of treasury became pop­ ularly known as the "pygg bank." No doubt, with the pas­ sing of generations, the term and its ' origin was forgotten but at some much later point in time, some­ one engagedanEnglishpot- ter to make an "old pygg bank" ... the potter must likely have been less than a historian because he simply interpreted the order to mean a bank fash­ ioned literally in the shape or image of a pig. Ob­ viously we havetopresume that the customer accepted the mistake and ultimately the institution for saving was born. Whether you are interested in saving money...or bor­ rowing, you' II find FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF McIIENRY most accommodating! You will also receive fast, per­ sonal service...with a smile!
