Clarence Regner Highway commissioner; Ted Pitzen assessor-elect; Albert Adams, supervisor; Tom Birmingham, clerk; Bruce Novak, Carol Perschke and Howard Snyder, trustees, all from McHenry township were among the ap proximate 2,000 delegates and guests who attended the 72nd annual Educational conference sponsored by the Township Officials of Illinois (T.O.I.).
