\ PAGE 12 • PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY. MAY 12. 1070 Lakeland Park Marilyn Nystrom 385-7014 Recent Meeting Well Attended By Area Members Interest is picking up! We had quite a few people at this meeting Keep on coming, people! I'm really proud of ail of you! Stickers for association member's cars and a guest pass will be sent out. The stickers should be displayed in the rear window of the car and any car parked at the beaches or boat launch without one will be towed away! The additions to the by-laws have been typed and as soon as the state receives them they will be sent out in the newsletter. There was a lot of questioning about the audit that was sub­ mitted by the board It was to have been a complete, yearly audit of all of the association's assets and, liabilities, but what was submitted was roughly a one month audit. This was questioned and will probably be resolved by the next meeting, because this was supposed to be done before the new board members took office. Welcome letters have been prihted so. please, if you, know of any new people in the area, notify the temporary clerk, Cathy Storlie and she will in­ form them of our association. There will be swimming lessons again this summer. Further information will come later. Money has been allotted for playground equipment and lights for the beaches. It's too late for any of our children to receive any part- time summer jobs from the city, but, next year, maybe we should have the kids put their applications in by January or February! A petition to call a special meeting for the subject of fencing our beaches was put before the board. A meeting will be scheduled in the next couple of weeks. There will be a cleanup week in the month of June so if you have any garbage that has to be thrown out, now is the time to get it together. The Pollution Control board has denied the motion from the Lakeland Park Water com­ pany. I'll have more in­ formation later!

FOR THE VERY BEST IN GERANIUMS BEDDING PLANTS VEGETABLE PLANTS' at Very Reasonable Prices Thompson's Flowers 214 RAFFEL RD. WOODSTOCK 338-0711 Packaging Tips Cut Odds On Parcel Damage In Mail l "Parcel damage in the mail could ^be significantly prevented by better packaging." That's the opinion of Post­ master Leroy Smith who of­ fered these tips on how to prepare parcels for mailing: "A single item in a package should be cushioned, and if more than one loose item is mailed in the same box, each should have its own individual inner carton," he said. Cushioning can be done with such materials as shredded or tissue paper, excelsior, cloth, or plastic foam. "Sealing and binding packages are important, too," he said. "We recommend Kraft paper tape for closing lighter packages. It's available in various widths and strengths. Heavier packages require reinforced Kraft tape, and, for binding a filament tape," he said. Postmaster Smith stressed that the entire gummed surface of the tape should be moistened before applying. "Failure to do so may cause parcels to come undone." he said. He said paperboard and fiberboard boxes should be wrapped with paper about as strong as a large grocery bag, and closed with tape or strong cord. Postmaster Smith had suggestions for these ' 'problem" categories: Folr non-breakable, flat items weighing up to 4 pounds such as a book or other printed matter, or a shirt, towel or han­ dkerchiefs, used a padded bag. These can be purchased from the post office. Soft goods such as blankets and larger quan­ tities of shirts and towels should fit snugly in a fiberboard box. Fragile pieces such as glass, china and cameras should be wrapped individually with padding to protect against shock and vibration. Separate wrapped items from container surfaces with padding, and include enough cushioning to Rule Against Employment Of Board Member Spouse take -up all air6 space. The fiberboard container should be strong enough to withstand up to 200 pounds pressure per square inch. This strength designation is printed on most containers. Heavy loads such as books, tools and metal parts require an extremely strong container In addition to taping or stapling, the container should be wired or tied with a heavy cord. "Put the name and address of the person to whom the package is being mailed and your own return address inside the package as well as on only one side outside," Postmaster Smith advised. "This is to enable the post office to rewrap the package, if necessary, and send it on to the addressee, or return it to sender should the address be torn away or the contents become separated from the wrapping. The outside address should be legible from two feet away. Always cheek that you have the proper zip code and postage." Attorney General William J. Scott has issued a legal opinion that a conflict of interest exists when the spouse of a school board member is employed in the district governed by that board. Scott's opioion noted there is a "natural and probable sharing of assets between spouses ...the interest of one's spouse may be attributed to one's self and be a prohibited interest." The Attorney General also advised that abstention from voting is of no effect in preventing a conflict on the part of a board members. Scott cited a state Supreme court opinion on that point, although he took note that the Supreme court has agreed to consider a case, Brown v. Kirk, where a lower court held that abstention from discussion and voting on a matter of personal financial interest avoided a conflict. • Scott said that until the Supreme court indicates otherwise, he must continue to hold the view that abstention from conflictive matters by a boardmember is of no effect. Scott said his opinion is the opposite of one given by a prior Attorney General in 1951, because of a court ruling in Bock v. Long since then, in which it was held a public of­ ficial was in a conflict of in­ terest because his wife held a publicly-regulated liquor license. Scott's opinion was requested by Bureau County State's Attorney A. Randolph Comba. The opinion agrees with the position recently taken by the Illinois Office of Education on the advice of legal counsel. Political Consumer Forum other people in John's area also are interested in beginning distributorships of the quality by Illinois Attorney General William J. Scott The term "white collar crime" is becoming more familiar these days. White collar crime, simply, is "financial" crime' but there the "simplicity" stops. Most white collar crimes are com­ plex and difficult to prosecute. And, unfortunately, per­ secution can occur only after the crime has been committed. It's not like television - cat-, ching the robbers in the midst of the act. Let me offer an example of how one of the most common white collar crimes works: John Doc's uncle dies and leaves him $8,000. John has two children to educate. He wants a good investment that will multiply his money quickly. (Don't we all!) He sees an ad in a local newspaper: "Part- time distributorship available. No selling required. One hundred percent return. All accounts established by the company. First quality mer­ chandise. Call Mr. Smith, 555- 1212." John decides it can't hurt to call, to find out a bit about the distributorship over the telephone. He gets an answering ser­ vice; is told to leave his name and number and someone will call back. Someone does; but he says he can't tell John anything ' about the distributorship over the phone. They'll have to meet. John agrees to an appointment the next day at a local motel. At that time, the very, well dressed company represent­ ative tells John basically the same things 'that appeared in the newspaper ad. He also says that John can expect to make between $15,000 and $25,000 per year in this .part-time job, which involves distributing a line of quality candies. The company's team of retail marketing experts will set up the retail accounts for John at various local stores; and all John has to do is visit these locations periodically and restock the display of mer­ chandise. John is assured his particular distribution area will be exclusive, and will have been thoroughly researched for product desirability by the company's market research experts. John asks the man if the company has any references. The man suggests John call the Better Business Bureau. He also gives him a typed sheet with the names and telephone numbers of three "successful distributors" in nearby areas who will be happy to tell John how good it is to work for the company. The company man points out, however, that a number of candies; and if John doesn't want to be left out, he'd better sign up now. The investment: $8,000 ...which must be in a certified check, not a personal check. John looks at the contract. He mentions that he really ought to consult an attorney. But the company man says he has some legal background himself and can advise John that it's a fine contract just the same as an "expensive" attorney. John leaves the motel for his bank. En route, he calls the Better Business Bureau and is told it has no complaints against the company. He also calls one person named on the list of "successful distributors," and is given a glowing report, about the company. John gets a certified check for $8,000 and returns to the motel, assured in his mind that he's making an excellent in­ vestment for his children's future education. The contract is signed and the company man says John will be receiving information and materials from the company soon. "This is a ground-floor opportunity," he assures John as they shake hands and he puts the certified check into a fine leather briefcase, his two-carat diamond pinky ring flashing in the sunlight. Next time in "Consumer . Forum" we'll find out what happens to John Doe, part-time candy distributor. CENTENARIAN...Edward J.

FFA Chapters Cooperate In Swing Program Four Future Farmers of America chapters and Mchenry FS are cooperating in aswine raising program that ^fireulounate with a "weigh- in" at the McHenry County Fair Aug. 4-8. McHenry FS has agreed to furnish hog owners in each off the four chapters with a supply of VB supplement to raise four pigs to market weight. The pigs were weighed at the fairgrounds in late April, and the final weigh-in will follow judging at the,fair, explained Randy Erwin, FS feed sales manager. As an incentive to the con­ testants, McHenry FS is providing two $50 cash prizes to be awarded to the FFA chapters as follows: (1) Best average rate of gain for the four pigs. (2) Best feed ef­ ficiency-most pounds gained for the feed used. Erwin said the FFA students chosen by the participating chapters are: Don Burton, Harvard; Dave Swanson, Woodstock; Kevin Langan, Marengo; and Rick Lueth, Huntley. The students will keep records on the feed given the animals during the period. These hogs are in a special class at the fair, and part of the program includes judging the hogs before slaughter, then comparing the live evaluation with what a carcass analysis shows. The students are choosing what ration they feed their own four pigs, and McHenry FS sales specialists are available for consultation without charge to help develop the best total ration. Those cooperating men are Russ Geiseke, Marengo; Larry Nacke, Woodstock; Leon Torrens, Harvard; and Charles Olson, Huntley... V
