PAGE 18 - PI.AINDEALERWEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1976 MUSIN' AND^ MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) derstanding is that the deetsion making will be done this September by a Springfield agency. There is a determined effort 'to destroy this bridge, but there is just as valiant a fight to save It. If she is lost, it will not be because she had no friends. With the death of George , Pittner last week, the Plain- dealer's Poet's Corner lost one of its most expressive homespun contributors. He was- one of the first to send his poems when the column came into being a few years ago. They ranged from memories of the war years to comparisons of life around him today with another era. Mr. Pittner was a retired baker, conducting his own bakery shop near the Loop for many years. Although his poems came to our office less frequently in the last couple of years, they were contributions accepted with the knowledge that his philosophies would be much appreciated by our reading public. K.A.F. COUNTY FAIR OPENS AUG. 4 (Continued from page 1) of thrills and spills, and local people in unusual cir­ cumstances. Local participants are taking part in those two evenings' events. Jeannie C. Riley, a nationally acclaimed country singer who parlayed "Harper Valley PTA" to fame, will be the headliner Saturday night . Her show opens at 8 p.m. g) Fair visitors will notice a spruced up fairgrounds. Three buildings sport fresh coats of paint. Two new buildings have been added to accommodate this steadily growing fair. A new building for open class home economics exhibits is encouraging a large number of entries in this category. The rabbits exhibitors are threatening to crpwd the present efacility to capacity. Dairy entries are at their usual large total, and the beef show is indicating promise of another outstanding contest among the purebred and crossbred en­ thusiasts. For some reason, the McHenry County Fair has become a popular site for a large goat show, in part caused by the fact that neighboring Lake county has a big goat show the week before the fair at Woodstock. Officials are improving the quality of animals offered at the Livestock Auctio^ in­ variably a big attraction each year. It will be held at 1 p>m. Saturday, and the auction committee will check each) animal to be sure it is finished and ready for auction. Last year more than 140 steers were sold. Hogs and sheep are also auctioned. Tractor pull competition on two days, and two days of ever- popular harness racing are among other events for the variety-minded visitors. Horses have a dominant role at the fair, with horse events of some kind offered throughout the fair. The corral is one of the busiest places on the ground! A growing audience is ap­ preciating the Antique show, a show which ha£ generated an increasing number of entries so that the show now occupies more than twice the space needed a couple of years ago. This is in Building D, one of several exhibit halls on the fairgrounds. Commercial exhibits, both inside and outside, are an in­ tegral part of the fair. Many educational exhibits are presented, and innumerable civic and public service organizations will have booths. Among them are the Senior Citizens, Pioneer center, Mental Health clinic, Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Women's committees, Dairy Promotion council, and both major political parties. A major addition this year will be additional rides. Jack Hayes, treasurer, reports another improvement will be increased midway lighting. Security and traffic control is being handled by the sheriff's auxiliary police, the Sheriff's department and City of Woodstock police. There is no charge for children under 8. Season tickets are also available. 4-H ROYALTY NIGHT WILL HIGHLIGHT FAIR (Continued from page 1) Ed Vogts, Woodstock, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil ̂ Vogts; Dave Gieseke, Crystal Lake, Mr. and Mrs. Glen Gieseke; Bob Thompson, Greenwood, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Thompson and David Ainger, Hebron, Mr. and Mrs. Alan Ainger.

The formation of the new vocational school has been plagued with problems and delays. The formation of the John- sburg unit district delayed the referendum eight months, due to a defect in the state law. Bonding attorneys would not approve the election because the law was not clear whether the new Johnsburg or McHenry board, if either, had the authority to call the election. The center had received a state appropriation of $2.5 million for the 1975-1976 fiscal year with the stipulation that the area pass a referendum to . raise $2.1 million of local matching funds during that year to qualify for the state money. Because of the delays, the Area Vocational center could not claim the state funds before June 30, 1976, and the funds had to be reappropriated in the state budget. Then the area center en­ countered more problems. When Governor Dan Walker's ax fell on the appropriation for the Capital Development Board (CDB) two weeks ago, the state funds for the center were vetoes. Gamble reported to the Public Relations committee July 28, that there is a high degree of uncertainty in Springfield. Gamble said, "I talked to a staff member in the Governor's office of the budget and he told me I should urge my local legislators to push for an override of the veto. It's all politics and it makes me sick", Gamble added. "We are faced with a chicken and egg proposition", Gamble said. "We can't have an area vocational school without the local funds and we can't have the school without the state grant. It makes no difference which comes first". It was at this point the board acted favorably on the recommendations of other interested agencies and office holders. TWO STABBED; OTHERS HURT IN WEEKEND MISHAPS (Continued from page 1) the accident took place. Driver of the pickup, Marcy J. Fischbach of 4813 W.

Peart of 1004 Hickory road, Woodstock, escaped injury when her car rolled over at 1533 N. Draper road Saturday morning about 1:30. Ms. Peart told county police she was unfamiliar with the road and failed to negotiate a sharp curve in the roadway. She lost control of the car, which rolled over on the west side of the road. Ronald J. Staggs of 930 Lake street, Woodstock, was taken to McHenry hospital following a one-vehicle accident at the intersection of Ringwood and McCullom Lake roads last Wednesday evening. He was admitted to the hospital and was reported in satisfactory condition Monday morning. According to witnesses, Staggs' van was traveling south on Ringwood road and passed through the stop intersection. The van continued on through a yard and fence, coming to rest in a field.

Millstream, McHenry, was damaged Saturday morning about 10 o'clock when it ran into a tree and a barbed wire fence. Ms. Bergdahl reported a blue vehicle entered her lane of traffic as she was west-bound on Mason Hill road near Cherry Valley road, south of McHenry. She pulled to the right, lost control of the car and ran into a ditch. A car driven by Murray D. Bolger of 3806 W. Anne street, McHenry, was damaged in a hit-and-run accident Saturday morning about 1 o'clock at the intersection of Routes 31 and 176. Bolger was driving north on Route 31 with the offender's auto traveling along his right side. As they came to the in­ tersection, the other driver made a sharp left turn to go west on Route 176 and hit Bolger's auto. The unidentified person stopped and informed Bolger he would park his auto off the roadway but instead, he fled east-bound on Terra Cotta avenue. A witness verified Bolger's account of the accident.
