A CREATING A POSITIVE IMAGE (Continued from page i) why people cannot call and ask a cop to walk through their homes and suggest ways to th­ wart would-be burglars. "We have an etcher which people can use to inscribe social security numbers, or any number they are familiar with, into valuable belongings, but no one uses it/* Langdon said. "No fence in the world would take something marked like that." "We want the community to feel that we are their friends," Donahue said. MORE PROBLEMS ON JOHNSBURG H.S. ADDITION (Continued from page 1) over responsibility Level of tennis courts will be raised, once again due to drainage. Air conditioning in the TV studio has been agreed to by the Capitol Development board. Decibel readings tf ere taken in five locations to test solutions to the noise in the ventilating system, and the readings were found ta be good. It was noted that outskle air vents were open 100 percent and not working, which cpUld have been responsible for significant heat loss during the heating season. Lockers are being installed in both boys' and girls' P.E. facilities. After some discussion, the board approved a motion to expend approximately $7,600 for extensive boiler repairs at the Junior high and Middle school. Discussion had cen­ tered around possible reasons for the leaking boiler tubes, the permanence of the repairs, and whether the cause of the leaks might be determined. Very small amount of scale was found in the tubes, but it was concentrated at the point of greatest heat, and may have been a factor. Also brought up was the temperature of returning water. Firing rates will also be checked to deter­ mine if they are too hot. An ongoing series of programs is being presented to the board by members of the various faculties, keeping them informed of special approaches to various areas of education and results achieved or changes deemed necessary. The July 24 presentation was given by Bob Schmitt, fresh­ man studies coordinator, who „ has been coordinating Junior high1 with high school as far as team or non-team teaching. ^ The program for incoming1 freshmen has grown from student choice of team or non- team (sometimes made haphazardly) to faculty choice by the middle of the year (based on student performance in the chosen environment), to an arrangement hinging on recommendations by the Junior high faculty, which may be appealed by parents if results are unsatisfactory. This program evolved as a refinement of a four-point approach including team teaching (though space was a problem due to unfinished construction in the larger areas); traditional academic method; a special team geared to the lowest reading, and possibly learning disabled group, using reading and science teachers, or reading and history, or reading and composition teachers to facilitate the comprehension of the subject;, and a group monitored closely and in company of a teacher most of the time because of a record of discipline problems. After a first executive session, it was decided to list the building trades home for sale for $97,500, as per the appraisal. During the later session, four teachers aides and a reading teacher were hired for the Junior high. A com­ mittee will study the question of pay for extra duty, and a separate group will check into „ Title IX compliance, dealing with equal pay. VERBAL SCUFFLE ENDS IN CITY ZONING CHANGE (Continued from page 1) residence and single law firm offices. Presently, there is a house, a single driveway which exits onto Front street and sub­ stantial shrubbery and trees throughout the 2.5 acre lot, according to Mohr's testimony. Mohr said he has no in­ tentions to substantially changing the character of either the house or the lot and would maintain a single access to the property from Front street. When asked about the amount of traffic which might be generated, Mohr said that it would be no more than a family with three teenagers of driving age. Mohr testified that he would be discouraged from using the property solely as a residence because of cost and traffic congestion on Front street. Mohr also said that if he could not get a re-classification, he would probably be forced to subdivide the land into single family residential lots. Ms. Cuda then asked whether Mbhr had any intention of selling any portion of the property? "No, I do not," Mohr said. Richard Golbeck then reiterated his objections to having Annie Cuda and Bryce Klontz remain on the board. "I saw Jessup removed because of his former in­ volvement, but no others have removed themselves because of their former involvement. It's the usual unfair treatment we get," Golbeck said. Golbeck objected because he said the proposed zoning change was a violation of the comprehensive plan for the City of McHenry which shows the property as remaining residential. He also said the change would generate more traffic and be detrimental to <&• Legal Notice Financial statement of the McHenry Nunda Public Library District for fiscal year July 1,1978 to June 30,1979.

The attorney for the petitioner, Sam Diamond, asked Golbeck, "If everything was preserved, would you object?" "Yes," said Golbeck. "Why?" asked Diamond. "Because of the t added traffic," Golbeck answered. "Would the use as we've presented it add more traffic?" Diamond asked. "Definitely," Golbeck said. "Would you object to five or six single family residences?" Diamond asked. "No," Golbeck said. "Would this create more traffic than a single family residence with three teenagers of driving age?" Diamond asked. "No, I don't believe so," Golbeck said. The major objection, which was echoed by the other ob­ jectors, would be the "block­ busting or domino" effect that a business zoning would have on the surrounding lands. John W. Armstrong, 3807 W. St. Paul avenue, McHenry, said he was concerned about the total effect of the trend towards business and added that he did not buy his home to live beside a business district. Similarly, Lon Smith, 1614 Riverside drive, McHenry, said he did not want to see McHenry become a "strip town in all directions." Smith also said, as did strong, that he was concerned about a change in o "The Carey .Appliance property was left often to sale," Smith said. "The current people will do a fine job, but it doesn't always stay that way. It's not Terry, or Jim Althoff, it's the whole outlook." The "Carey Appliance" property was originally in­ tended to be the new home of Carey Appliance and the zoning was changed to "B-l" business. Later, Carey Appliance decided not to build and the property is currently up for sale. Bryce Klontz made a motion to recommend to the Council that the variance for a com­ bination residence and single . law firm office be granted provided that the character of the building and the property not be substantially changed and that access to the property be limited to one. Voting in favor were Klontz, Spruth, Kauss, Cuda and Fouse. Ron Wilkins abstained. On Friday, July 27, the ZBA will continue its hearing con­ cerning the Falcon develop­ ment north of the City.

FRONT ST., McHENRY Two Injured In Explosjon Sheriff's police were called to the emergency room of Memorial hospital last Sunday to concerning two people in­ jured after an explosion: Allen Berg, Wonder Lake,* and Eugene Hardy, Woodstock, were behind the Heider Berry farm, Woodstock, trying to ignite a white tube filled with gunpowder when it exploded unexpectedly, according to the report. Berg suffered burns on both arms and Hardy was burned on his face and body. Both are listed in satisfactory condition at Memorial hospital. The police are still in­ vestigating the source of the gunpowder. On July 25, the Sheriff's police were called to the railroad bridge ever the Fox river at 6:30 a.m. because Marcos Hernandez, Fox River Grove, was threatening to jump. The police tried talking him down and when they climbed up to talk to him, Hernandez crawled under the bridge, hanging on to the steel struc­ ture. According to the report, Hernandez refused to come down and then jumped. He swam close to the shore but refused to come out and had to be pulled into a boat and brought, in. _ Hernandez was arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. On July 20, the Sheriff's police received a report of a man carrying a razor blade and with cuts on his face, neck and right arm. The police located the man, who was not identified in the report except to say he was from Round Lake Park. He was subdued with the help of others and taken to McHenry hospital. According to the report, the wounds were self-inflicted and the man "apparently needed psychological assistance." On July 23, a motorcycle was seen speeding 68 mph in a 55 zone and when the Sheriff's deputy turned the car around, the motorcycle sped off onto E. Wonder Lake road. Ignoring the red lights and the siren, Robert Van Ooyen, Wonder Lake, rode until forced to stop when a car blocked his path at the intersection of Lilac and E. Wonder Lake road. Van Ooyen was arrested for speeding, fleeing and at­ tempting to elude a police of­ ficer and reckless driving with bond set at $1,070. Also on July 23, a Sheriff's deputy saw a car traveling without taillights and stopped the car to warn the driver. Inside the car, the deputy saw a large stick with a taped end, which according to the report is considered a weapon, and further inspection produced a set of "knunchas" which are weapons used primarily in the martial arts. They look like two, thick sticks joined together by a small chain. Michael Bartnick, Wonder Lake, was arrested for driving without a valid driver's license and unlawful use of weapons. Bond w«Ss set at $1,035. On July 24, a Sheriff's deputy investigated a car partially blocking a road and found two people and a cooler of beer. Michael Harrison, 18, 800 W. Oak Grove, McHenry, was arrested for unlawful possession of alcoholic liquor with bond set at $1,000. The other person, a juvenile, was released to the custody of his parents. Richard Haupt and Richard Nielsen, both of Wonder Lake, were both arrested for disor­ derly conduct after an incident on Hancock drive in Wonder Lake. A Sheriff's deputy stopped to investigate a group of peoplfe when Haupt threw a rock and hit the squad car. Nielsen persisted in "pushing and shoving" the other people around and both were arrested. Bond was set at $35 each. > Plane Down, * No Injuries f At about 12:30 a.m. Thursday morning, a light plane crashed" into a corn field on Oibrich road, about half way between Harvard and Marengo. ' The pilot, ^DSvld A. Mould, Elgin, was not injured and told Sheriff's police he was flying back to Gait airport from a job over the Lake " County fairgrounds when he lost hfs way because of fog and in­ strument failure. * There was only minor damage to the plane which is owned by Skycasting of Illinois, Woodstock, and is used for night aerial advertising. Mould said he was low on gas and was trying to find a place tb land when the advertising gear caught a tree and forced the plane down. All our knowledge is our-1' selyes to know. -Alexander Pope."'
