According to deputies, Muse was almost across the roadway when he heard brakes squealing and«was hit by a car owned by William Koch of 707 Pheasant trail, McHenry. A car-van accident Saturday morning at the intersection of ox Lake and Broadway, istakee Highlands, resulted in juries to both drivers. William F. Huemann of 2503 W. Johnsburg road, McHenry, and driver of the car, Mary M. Koecel of 2001 W. Michigan, Milwaukee, Wi., were taken to McHenry hospital by the Johnsburg Rescue squad, , where they were treated and released. According to the report by county police, Huemann was north-bound on Fox Lake road when the Koecel auto pulled out in front of his van. She was ticketed for failure to yield at an intersection William T. Colomer of 4714 Garden Quarter, McHenry, was reported in satisfactory condition Monday morning at McHenry hospital, where he was taken by the rescue squad following an accident about 1 o'clock Saturday morning. Colomer was a passenger in a car driven by Jon M. Duszynski of Powers Lake, Wi., who was not hurt. According to county police, Duszynski was driving south on River road when his car hit a parked vehicle oftned by Gerald W. Lyons of 1007 N. River road, which was parked in front of his residence. Djr£zynski's car also hit a mailbox, breaking the post and damaging evergreen bushes at 1005 N. River road. When Bradley H. Demke of 1217 W. May, McHenry, made too wide a U-turn on the west shoulder of Wilmot road, the van he was driving overturned. The incident occurred last Thursday morning on Wilmot, just north of Main street, Spring Grove. He was not in­ jured in the accident. Demke was ticketed by county police Cor driving while his license was suspended or revoked. A ticket for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident was issued to Wesley H. May of 6415 N. Shore drive, Spring Grove, after his car hit a lamp post in Lakemoor last Wednesday night. May told deputies he was having trouble with his brakes prior to the mishap. As he glanced off the post, another car was in his south-bound lane of traffic and forced him off the road at 131 Sheridan road, where he hit a boulder. A four-car accident at the intersection of Rt. 120 and Meadow lane, McHenry, at 4' p.m. Friday resulted in a passenger in one car being taken to the local hospital for treatment of injuries. He was Albert Fish of 7417 Marblehead, Wonder Lake, who was riding in a car driven by Annette A. Ryba of 8804 Alden road, Wonder Lake. Eva M. Ray of 3011 Mourine, McHenry, was ticketed by city police for improper left turn. Ms. Ray told officers she was driving west on Rt. 120 and 1 slowed to make a Jeft turn onto Meadow. She thought-there was sufficient time to turn, but was struck by an east-bound car driven by Charles R. Martina of 801 Barbara lane, McHenry. The latter, applied his brakes and his auto spun around and hit the Ryba vehicle. Elmer Hettermann of 505 Front street, also east-bound, applied his brakes to avoid the collision and struck a mail box. PROMISE WELL USE JULY 21 (Continued from page 1) increase in sewer permits tor hotels, motels, nursing homes, retirement homes and hospitals and revision of sewer charges for non-residential users who do not use city water. Details will be reported in Friday's Plaindealer. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) toward 'cyclists might well provide material for another column. Right now, however, the immediate problem among store owners and some pedestrians is safety in business areas. Unless young bicycle riders can be convinced they must walk their bikes on sidewalks in these locations, there will be little im­ provement. K.A.F. BICENTENNIAL COUNTY FAIR CHANGES\TOLD (Continued from jkge 1) following Fair boaro approval. A building 60 feet by 120 feet to provide space for com­ mercial and educational exhibits is being constructed near Massey hall. To house the home economics exhibits, a building is being built about 10- 12 feet east of Building D. It will be 40 feet by 136 feet and is needed because the open class home economics exhibits have been shuffled around, something like a stepchild. Building E, as the new home economics building will be called, has been needed for a quarter of a century,, said Kathy Ainger, open class home economics chairman. "It has been discussed but funds never seemed available and the High­ way department did make space available in its building. "That was inconvenient and we could not have shelving or proper display space in the Highway deparment building which gradually became too crowded for us. We are pleased with the board's decision to go ahead with this new structure. "It will be used for open class foods, clothing, arts and crafts, and flowers. This more at­ tractive area should encourage more people to exhibit in these various areas. It will be closer to the parking area and it will be well-lighted for better viewing." A blacktop floor is planned for Building E, much less ex pensive than a concrete floor. All dairy and beef animals must be TB tested, Dorothy Schultz, secretary, reported. This includes steers. More animals may require testing, depending on requirements bv the state veterinarins who are concerned with ending the outbreak of disease here. As a caution, no animals may be watered from an open trough- all exhibitors must supply buckets. r Women Voter League To 19 VOLUNTEERS BECOME NEW AUXILIARY DEPUTIES Assist Recycling Drive (Continued from page 1) also assist the Sheriff's department and numerous police departments in McHenry county for various civic events.

Those taking the oath of office as McHenry county auxiliary deputies included John Benson, Wonder Lake; Gerald Birch, Burton's Bridge; Harry Buchert, Richmond; June Buchert, Richmond; Juanita DeHaan, Harvard, Rick Duel, Pistakee Highlands; Robert Finkbeiner, Pistakee Bay; Alan^ Glowinski, Algonquin; Gayle Gustafson, Fox River Grove; George Havens, Harvard, John flosie, McHenry; Wesley Keck, Lake- in-tpe-Hills; Ralph Kulin, Marengo; Carol McPherson, Costal Lake; Richard Nolan, iden; Marvin Rosenbalm, larvard; Rolf Schoelkopf, Marengo; William Stegall* Crystal Lake; and Sam Wyatt, Wonder Lake. ,Lutheran Bible Camp Conducts Church Appeal Lutherdale Bible camp in Elkhorn, Wi., has initiated a $750,000 development program entitled the Lutherdale fund. It is a three-year capital funds appeal that will seek to secure pledges from over 112,000 Lutherans in approximately 200 congregations in southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. Lutherdale, one of the first Bible camps of the American Lutheran church-, was founded in 1944 and has served as a site of inspiration, Christian fellowship and recreation for thousands of persons during the past thirty years. The primary focus of the proposed prograpra will be the construction of a year-round Retreat center at the present camp and the development of a new 150-acre Tent and Trailer campsite two miles southeast of Lutherdale. Funds will also be applied towards the modernization of the kitchen and general renovations. This Saturday, July 17, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. is the time set for McHenry's monthly Third - Saturday - Recycling drive at the McHenjry Market Place parking lot. Members of the Woodstock-McHenry League of Women Voters will be working along with the McHenry County Defenders by providing the labor on Saturday to unload cars and to take care of the bundled newspapers, clean bottles and flattened all- steel cans that are brought in. Some recycling families are still bringing in bi metal pop cans. These can no longer be accepted, since there is no way to separate the aluminum top from the steel side and bottom. This causes an inferior steel product when the metals are melted. The McHenry County Defenders encourage the public to think seriously about the environmental necessity of purchasing beverages in returnable bottles. The cost per ounce of buying beverages in returnables is much less, plus the fact that returnables have an average life of nineteen trips to the store as compared to the one-time life of throw-aways. All aluminum products are accepted, as are all steel cans, and clear, green, and brown bottles. Cans must be washed- and flattened, and glass must have all plastic and metal removed. Do not bring crockery or light bulbs. Anyone having questions regarding the recycling drive is asked to call the McHenry County Defenders represen­ tative at 385-8512. Rule Open Meeting For Construction Bidders Attorney General William J. Scott has issued a legal opinion that the Public Meetings act requires that meetings of public building commissions to interview prospective bidders for construction projects, must be open to the public.

The Public Meetings Act permits closed sessions "to Nlpperslnk Lake Claims Chicago Youth One drowning was reported by Fox Lake police this «aast weekend when Raymond Sanchez, 16, of 1940 Lincoln avenue, Chicago, was thrown from a boat after it was sideswiped by another craft in Nippersink Lake. Sanchez and four companions were in their 18-foot boat Sunday morning when all of them were tossed into the water after being hit by another craft. All but Sanchez were picked up by other crafts in the area. The Lake County Underwater Recovery team was called to the scene and recovered the body late Sunday afternoon in about 8 feet of water. Consider information regarding appointment, employment, or dismissal of an employee or officer." Scott's opinion noted that prospective bidders are independent contractors and therefore do not qualify for the exemption applying to em­ ployed personnel. The Attorney General said, however, that the Act permits meetings to be "closed" when so required bj^a federal regulation. A federal regulation could apply when a project is supported by federal funds. • ^ PAGE 15 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 1976 First Birthday Important Items On County Seniors Agenda The McHenry County Senior Citizens council will be holding, its fourth quarterly meeting July 15 at 1:30 p.m. in the Harvard municipal building above City Hall, announced Marge Jones, executive director for the Council.
