Conduct Blood Pnssurt Screening Program April 12 (Continued from page 1) tinuing records of each registrant's blood pressure, we would like to remind persons who registered last month to return this month. Also, new enrollees are welcome to participate in this free program," states Mrs. Elsie Winkel, R.N., chairman. The screening program is part of the ongping health care program inaugurated in February by the Woman's club, in cooperation with the Outreach commiteee of the McHenry hospital board of directors. CON DUCT CHARGES FILED AGAINST McHENRY YOUTHS (Continued from page 1) to subdue one youth. Deputy Schroeder went to the aid of a second youth who was lying in a field nearby. When the^feputy approached the youngman, he jumped to his feet and started spitting at the officers and shouting obscenities at rescue squad members and citizens who were attempting to assist at the scene. It was determined both the young men were intoxicated. They were taken to McHenry hospital by the Crystal Lake rescue squad for examination before being taken to the county jail. While Detective Charles Terrell was at Jack's Sunrise Grocery, 3020 W. Route 120, McHenry, last Friday night, he saw a youth purchase three 6- packs of beer and enter an auto with two other occupants. When the car left in a west-bound direction, the officer noticed the driver appeared to be under age. The auto was stopped and it was determined the offender was Michael Mai, 17, of 1402 N. Oakwood court, McHenry. He was charged with purchase and acceptance of alcoholic liquor by a person of non-age. His bond was set at $1,000. The store clerk, James Bowles, 22, of 3605 W. James, McHenry, was arrested for sales to minors. His bond was also set at $1,000. Both ap­ peared in court April 6. CITY SALARY SCHEDULE HAS FULL APPROVAL (Continued from page 1) be billed and payable quar­ terly. 2-Recommend that all residential customers not using city water pay $3.50 per month as their sewer use charge. (After considerable debate, the Council decided to drop the second recommendation and eliminate the words "using city water" from the first recom­ mendation.) 3-Recommend that all business establishments using city water pay 25 percent of their water bill as their sewer use charge with a minimum charge of $3 per month. 4-Recommend that all business not using city water and not utilizing water as a major part of their business operation pay $4 per month as their sewer use bill. 5-Each business operation in a building unit or complex shall be billed separately. 6-Recommend businesses not using city water but utilizing water as a major part of their business operation- be required to pay $8 per month as their sewer use charge. This would include, but not be limited to the following business operations: car washes, restaurants, laundries, schools, institutions, hotels and motels capable of housing twenty or more people and all businesses employing twenty or more -people. 7-Laundromats (Millstream Coin Wash) not using city water to pay 25 percent of metered water from private well at the rate charged by the city for city water. "Nothing in this ordinance shall be construed to apply to <ny business operation using 'ater from any source and not discharging any of this water into the city's sanitary sewer system," such as the Ready Mix plant, Bolger stated. Following lengthy debate and discussion on the last five items,-Mayor Stanek told the Council to study and digest the recommendations and return at the next meeting with any further suggestions. Stanek urged the Water and Sewer committee to consider the possibility of changing hook-up fees for places such as nursing or retirement homes. "The capacity they use in both water and sewer is basically the justification of the hook-up fees," Stanek advised. Bolger also reported that the matter of setting up a Capital Improvement Fund (CIF) to furnish money which would be placed in reserve for expansion or construction of water and sewer facilities when needed, had been discussed at length by the committee. They could not agree on any fair way to ad­ minister the proposal if it were to apply to properties now within the corporate limits. Therefore, the committee recommended that a CIF fee should be charged to properties that, after a given date such as July 1,1975, become annexed to the city of McHenry. A charge of $400 per residential unit was suggested by the committee, payable either at the time a building permit is issued or when a sewer hookup permit is issued. For commercial and in­ dustrial, a charge should be negotiated based upon an­ ticipated water and sewer use, the committee suggested. After much related dialogue, Alderman Pepping made a v/mveum LOOK what we're doing NOW!

Harker seconded the motion. On a roll call vote, it passed 5 to 2. Aldermen Schaedel and Hromec cast the two negative votes and Alderman Edward Datz was absent. Bolger advised that his committee had met with Mike Powers from Millstream Coin Wash in an attempt to resolve a delinquent and disputed sewer use bill. After discussion with the city attorney, it was the fee)ing of the committee a settlement should be negotiated. "We did this and agreed to an amount of $260 and Mr. Powers further agreed that the city would have access to read his water meter and to charge a percentage amount as the sewer use charge," Bolger stated. He said the committee would continue its efforts to have the owner bring city water into the building. During deliberations on the matter, since no specific details were available as to what the delinquent balance amounted to initially, it was decided to wait until all the information is available before acting on the proposeed settlement. In other action, Stanek told the Council he had received a letter from the McHenry County Historical society but had forgotten to bring it to the meeting. He reported that the letter said "they didn't want the city to tear down the old bridge." Alderman James Wegener said, "It's not our bridge. Besides, I wonder how many of those people were around when a car went into the river and traffic had to be detoured across the other bridge, and that's just a for-instance of what can happen." A motion to pay monthly bills in the amount of $25,648.68 was passed on a vote of 6 to 1. Mrs. Hromec voted no. The money for payment will be taken from the following funds: General fund, $13,225.98; Water and Sewer fund, $12,300.01 and Library fund, $122.69. Approval was given to rent 10 acres of land from Charles Budrick and 5 acres from Walter Bolger to be used for disposal of sludge from the sewer plant. The cost would be $1,000 to Budrick and $500 to Bolger. This will mean a savings of $4,000 over the past years, Stanek noted. The hauling distance is also much shorter than land used previously. The payment of $9,052 to American National bank for Water and Sewer revenue bonds passed unanimously. Two ordinances were adopted by the Council. One related to adopt the current plumbing code and the other to amend the Subdivision Control ordinance relating to the use of pipes. Alderman Wegener an­ nounced there would be a meeting of the License com­ mittee Monday, April 19, at 7:30 p.m. just prior to the regular Council meeting scheduled at 8 p.m. FORMAL WEAR RENTAL for ALL OCCASIONS § Stowl ..tkfc itw 1214 N. Green St., McHenry MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) candidates to fill the offices, came as a surprise. This is an exciting time, especially in High School District 156 . With the withdrawal of the John- sburg area in forming a new unit district, there promises to be a challenging period ahead that will require intelligent and diplomatic planning if the transition is to be smooth. Possibly the lack of interest lies only in the fact that McHenry residents are very well satisfied with the local school systems. Certainly it would be an unfortunate cir­ cumstance if we were to believe there were so few in our midst who felt the rewards were not worth the effort And effort it is to serve a school system well in a time of increasingly fast changes and uncertain future. Without doubt there is apathy among McHenry residents concerning the County college. Our representative the past two years seldom attended a meeting and with this term now ended, no one has indicated a desire to Tile for office. Therefore. McHenry is without representation. There is a definite need for this junior college, and its popularity in our area is evident. Even so, the disen­ chantment of McHenry residents in the earlier years of securing a location for MCC may linger to rankle many locally. Whatever our personal feelings on schools, we owe much to the men and women who are doing what the rest of us will not -- expend time, energy and know-how in the interest of education.

CANCER CRUSADE SELECT VOLUNTEERS (Continued from page 1) research, education and ser­ vice. the crusaders are handing out leaflets which list the seven warning signals of cancer. This year's leaflet has a special focus on breast cancer, which is the foremost malignancy striking American women today The American Cancer society estimates there are about 89,000 new cases of breast cancer each eyar, and more than 33,000 deaths. With early detection many of these lives could be saved.

Another related how a giraffe was shipped in such a small cage that it was dead upon arrival at its destination. This sixth grader at Montini Middle school described these stories ai.d others as "sickening." The letter to President Ford followed, to which he received this reply: "Dear Bryant: "I was pleased to hear from you and I appreciate your writing about matters that mean very much to you. I can see you truly love animals and 1 congratulate you in wanting to protect them for senseless cruelty. "A great philosopher once said that the real test of a civilization is the way we treat those who cannot help them­ selves. Your concern, for animals is a first step towards making the world better-not just for animals, but for people, too. Keep up the good work' "I am glad to have this op­ portunity to send you my best wishes for the years ahead." Bryant is the son of Mr and Mrs. Clifford A.
