PAGE 1« - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24. 1M2 TEN ASK TO SHARE REVENUE FUNDS (Continued from page 1) request for $1,084 of the revenue sharing pie. Ms. Peach pointed out that the society was assuming the operation of the Day school program formerly operated under the auspices of the Pioneer center. "This is not a United Way organization," she said. "We have found that we can do better by alter­ native means of funding than the United Way." Ms. Pesch noted the United Way does have some restrictions on fund raising ventures. She also commented that the society services 94 people who live within the corporate limits of the city. William Busse, representing the McHenry Library board of trustees, asked for a donation of $3,000, noting increased usage and costs associated with the library. He said the money would be used to fund certain items that had not been budgeted, like replacement reference materials, some maintenance costs and some capital improvements. McHenry Area Chamber of Com­ merce Executive Director Fran Olsen requested that the council allocate matching funds in the amount of $3,500 for the Economic Development Commission (EDC). The first council request for a part of the revenue sharing allocation came from Alderman Ronald Meurer, who asked for $5,000 to $10,000 for additional vehicles for the city. Meurer said that the recently replaced police cars would not be suitable because, "they were built for police work and are expensive to repair." Alderman George Harker, chairman of the Utilities committee, asked that the proposed allocation of $60,000 for sewer and water system improvements be increased to $75,000. Alderman Elizabeth Nolan asked the council for a $500 donation to the McHenry Beautification committee. Alderman Jack Pepping requested an allocation of $22,000 for the funding of the mosquito abatement program. Lastly, Alderman Cecilia Serritella requested $2,000 for alternative mosquito control measures, i.e. bug lights in the park. The various requests were recorded and will be considered at future budgetary meetings. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) from the present $35 to $50. Cash bail is one of the areas affected. The rule also applies to those minor traffic and conservation offenses which can be satisfied by the violator without a court appearance with a written plea of guilty and payment to the clerk of the court. Bail for the offenses of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs has been raised from $2,000 to $3,000. For fleeing to elude police, leaving the scene of an accident involving death or injury, reckless driving and drag racing, the bail is doubled from $1,000 to $2,000. And whether we agree or not with Governor Thompson's politics, we have to agree with a statement he made to the Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police when he pledged to ask the legislature to adequately fund crime control programs: "Without resources, laws are just words on paper". Most of us aren't anxious to see anyone punished, but the law abiding citizen has become weary paying in a variety of ways for the lack of concern of a growing number of people for the law. We can't be blamed for feeling good about a reversal of the past few years. KAF JOHNSBURG-- A L L T H E W A Y ! (Continued from page 1) concluded the day with awards ceremonies.

National Merit Free Plants With Gift For Beautification Free Aloe Vera plants will be given away at the Trade Fair in exchange for a donation to the McHenry Beautification effort. Planting time is later in spring, but blossoming forth at Trade Fair time is most appropriate since Trade Fair represents the business of McHenry and the Beautification committee represents the enhancement of the settings of those businesses. The landmark will be the charming wishing well which was hand built by former Alderman Vince Adams two years ago at the birth of the beautification concept. Wishes alone can't produce pots and posies. But generosity of time, labor and dimes and dollars can. « Last year 50 barrels of flowers graced the business district. The committee hopes to double or triple that number for this year. The dollars donated will determine the number. A request «heet will be available for businesseawho want a barrel at their address. The only requirement is that the owner promises to weed and feed the flowers and replace them should that become necessary for any reason. The beautification project has become a reality through the combined efforts of the City, the Chamber, the McHenry Garden club, the Girl Scouts, the Fox Ridge Women's club, Whispering Oaks Garden club and the florists of McHenry. Any club or organization or individual is invited to join the committee and lend their ideas and assistance. A sheet will be provided for that purpose at their Trade Fair display. The ninth annual McHenry Trade Fair will be at Parkland school at Route 120 and Ringwood road Feb. 26, from 6 to 10 p.m.; Feb. 27, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Feb. 28,11 a.m. to 5 p.m. There is plenty of free parking and no admission charge.

National Merit Scholarship com- Finalists Named ^exceptional academic ability and promise for becoming leaders in their chosen fields. DeWane studio Photo qualified as finalists 5,300 Merit Scholarship winners will be chosen throughout the nation. Although the majority of finalists will not win Merit Scholarships, many of these students will receive awards from other agencies and organizations, frequently from colleges and univer­ sities that are eager to enroll students of the high academic caliber that the Merit Program honors. The number of Merit Scholarships available in a particular competition year is determined by grants to the program from corporations, foun­ dations, business organizations, and higher education institutions. Currently, the value of the Merit Scholarships offered annually is about $17.5 million.
