Yi * ' A i McHenry Photographers Honored Cliff & Marianne Nies, owners of Photography by Nies in McHenry, have just returned from the Associated Professional Photographers of Illinois convention with another proud array of ribbons and photographs accepted for display by the judges. All of Mrs. Nies photographic oils and direct color correction were accepted for display with a second place ribbon for her direct color correction expertise and another second place ribbon in the Free Style category In that category she took two snapshots of a customer's dogs and combined them into one beautiful oil portrait of the dogs. Mr. Nies entered in the candid category for the first time this year and had his print accepted. It was one of the new ideas of wedding candids now being shown almost exclusively by his studio. The other two photographs were portraits of customers used directly from their portrait sittings. All in all it was a fine time spent with many new ideas brought back and in keeping with the tradition of many years standing, even when their studio was known as Langdon Studio in Crystal Lake, it is still The Award Winning Studio.' ADV But for now, the Crystal Lake success' not withstanding, present plans are to continue with the Task force, and analyze recommendations which come out of the sub­ committee meetings The next full Task force meeting is scheduled for May 5 at McHenry high school West campus.

BY ANN AT THE O'BREWERY The world renowned University of Illinois large symphonic band will appear in the West campus gym Satur­ day, April 15, at 2 p.m. This concert is part of a Northern Illinois tour by the band. This fine band has produced eighty- one albums of music by such famous composers as John PhillipSousa, Karl King. Henry Fillmore.

Guy Duker, a former local resident and son of the late Chauncey Duker, is ad­ ministrator for the band department at the University of Illinois. Duker will appear at the McHenry concert as a conductor of several selections he played in the high school band in McHenry. A great pride in this fine band, and a pride for Duker's , local heritage prompted the performance of such selections as "Zampa" overture by Herold, at the McHenry performance. This concert is but one element in the program that is attracting and holding fine young people who are out­ standing musicians to the University of Illinois. Dr. Harry Begian will con­ duct the "world's finest college band" at the West campus gym Saturday, April 16. Dr. Begian boasts of the finest band he has ever conducted. This highly selected band will tour nor­ thern Illinois this week, and McHenry is fortunate to host one of the concerts. Tickets are available from members of the West campus music department, and will be available at the door. Gravel Seminar Features DR.

Rt. 31, McHenry, remained in critical condition in Evan- ston hospital Tuesday morning, suffering injuries in a one-car auto accident Saturday af­ ternoon on McCullom Lake road. Gregg O. Clark, 17, of 2405 W. Mehring drive, McHenry, also a passenger with Zeller, was killed in the crash. "Gravel pit" and "eyesore" are not necessarily synonomous, the McHenry County Defenders learned Saturday when their gravel study committee toured two nearby areas where mining and land reclamation are hap­ pening at the same time. The tour was planned in preparation for "The Great Gravel Controversy" -- an all- day conferernce scheduled Saturday, April 30, at Central school. Crystal Lake. The public is invited to hear experts in a variety of fields discuss the economic, environmental, legal and aesthetic impacts of gravel mining in McHenry county. Workshop sessions are also scheduled so that citizens can get help from the experts on specific problems. Members of the Defenders, a local environmental group, viewed the beautification and reclamation efforts presently practiced by two pit operators, Vulcan Materials Co. near Crystal Lake and Meyer Material Co. in nearby Kane county. The Vulcan pits, operating since 1969 under the super­ vision of the Illinois Depart­ ment of Mines and Minerals, recently received an award for "outstanding achievement" in the prevention of dust and noise pollution to nearby residents and beautification of its en- tryways. Vulcan, which has also won twenty-three other awards for gravel mining operations throughout the United States, has been actively engaged in the construction of berms to shield residents and reforestation of the mined land at the Crystal lake site since the early 1950's, adding 3,000 to 5,000 trees annually. Upon completion of the mining, the area will consist of contoured land supporting a number of lakes to be used for recreation, conservation or development purposes. Another example of cooperative reclamation is the method used by the Max McGraw Wildlife foundation and Meyer Material Co. near Dundee. Faced with declining funds, the non-profit research foun­ dation contracted with Meyer to allow the mining rather than to sell some of the 1,350-acre wildlife sanctuary. Meyer will remove the gravel on a specified basis per year but will return the topsoil, after con­ touring the land, to specified depths. The reclaimed land, ac­ cording to general manager, Dr. George V. Burger, will contain four major lakes of varying depths to support many species of waterfowl and fish, and will serve as a research area for these species as well as song birds and game animals. "The foundation follows right behind Meyer every fall, seeding and planting trees," Burger adds, "to achieve the ultimate for wildlife ... a much more diversified habitat with more kinds of wildlife than existed before " The gravel conference will feature slide presentations on both of these operations along with a workshop to assist citizens on how and where they may obtain help and in­ formation. Other activities planned for the conference include sessions and workshops on geology and economics, local impact on environment, health and land use, present tax and a s s e s s m e n t p r a c t i c e s , proposals for phased management of gravel areas and enforcement of regulations applying to operations and reclamation. Some of the experts who will be participating are Peter Beltemacchi, IIT professor of City and Regional Planning; James Mann, Crystal Lake city planner; Fred LaFakis, assessment expert with the Illinois Department of Local Government Affairs; Tom Johnson and Jack Masters, geologists with the Illinois State Geological Sur­ vey, Marvin Utsinger, reclamation technician with the Illinois Department of Mines and Minerals; and Robert Montgomery, McGraw Wildlife foundation. Paul Scheid and David Meyers, Vulcan Materials Co., and George Dirkes, Association of Aggragate Producers, will represent industry interests. Registration for the con­ ference is requested by April 20. For registration, contact Sherry Anderson, 338-5539, 9911 Lucas road, Woodstock. For information about the con­ ference, contact the chairman, Mrs. Robert J. (Sydna) Becker, 9911 Lucas road, Woodstock.
