H.S. GRADUATION •Die Wednesday, June 11, edition of the McHenry plaindealer contained a picture of valedictorian, John Moehling, delivering his speech at the graduation c e r e m o n i e s . T h e background showed the administrators and board members of District 12. All in the group seemed intense and giving their attention to the words of the speech. The thought occurs - were they brought back to their own graduation - to the happiness of that day, to the plans they had of their own to change the world of their day - and possibly making a comparison of the years inbetween and what they had succeeded in ac­ complishment? America today needs strong citizens, young citizens, to come forth and take a good honest look at our country, and get together with those of us who see the need to get ourselves back on the right track.

Members of the McHenry Chapter of Pi Alpha, an international sorority, will be on hand to unload cars and help move materials along toward the next step of recycling. Most of the funds Pi Alpha will earn from their efforts will go to organizations such as the Lou Gehrig fund and the Heart fund; In addition to this monthly on-going drive, the McHenry County Defenders are working along with the McHenry Alternative high school and CETA for a six- week experimental curbside pick-up recycling program this summer. During this week flyers will be distributed in a few select neighborhoods explaining the program to householders. Those who receive flyers know their neighborhoods are involved. Through this program it is hoped that even more material can be kept from the solid waste stream. The citizens of McHenry are proud of the large quantity of material they are already recycling -over 300 tons per year - from this community alone. The following guidelines may be of help to those interested in becoming in­ volved. Newspapers - tie securely into bundles easily handled by the workers (and the householder). or place securely into strong, brown paper bags. All plastic bags must be removed. Wet paper is not acceptable since the newspaper is processed dry i m m e d i a t e l y a f t e r unloading. Recylced baling twine is available for those who would like to take some home with them. Magazines and corrugated board - bundle separately from the -newspaper. No "plastic. " ~ Glass bottles and jars - wash, and have metal and plastic removed. Remove plastic "jackets" that are found on some glass bottles. Clear, green and brown glass are accepted for recycling. Please do not bring light bulbs or crockery of any kind, and do not pre- crush glass. All-steel cans - rinse, remove labels, cut out bottoms (which makes flattening easier) and flatten. Aluminum - separate from all-steel cans since they are processed through different avenues. Some people still confuse the all- aluminum cans with the bi­ metal beverage container, which cannot be recylced. If in doubt, use a magnet. After a while, it is possible to tell the difference just by looking at it. The McHenry County Defenders encourage citizens to bay their beverages in returnable bottles whenever possible. These are more practical, both from an economic and environmental standpoint. Used motor oil - bring it to thedrive in a plastic jug with a secure lid. Labels from various products are being collected for Pioneer Center for the Exceptional, which uses them toward purchase of equipment for their sheltered workshop. Check the collection-display box on hand at each recylcing drive to see what kinds of labels are being saved. Anyone in need of further information regarding the recycling of materials is asked to call the McHenry C o u n t y D e f e n d e r representative at 385-8512. McCullom Lake WEDNESDAY, JUNE 18,1IM celebrated their first an­ niversary June 16. We congratulate both of you on that great day.
