PAGF i S - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, APRIL N, 1882 soring teachers and two students were present to support their causes. One student testified to the value of last year's experience and presented FACE LOZAL EMERGENCY SERVICE PROBLEMS (Continued from page 1) through cross-training, (2) more reliable funding from tax sources, (3) paying rescue personnel similar to fire department personnel, and (4) developing a closer cooperative working relationship with fire per­ sonnel. Attorney John Lampe, representing the Johns burg squad, suggested a Are district has the authority to use tax money to contract for service from a rescue squad. Attorney Donald Truckenbrod, representing the fire district, replied that a fire district might do this if a rescue squad had full-time personnel, not volunteers who may not provide guaranteed response time. He also expressed concern about insurance and liability for negligence suits. Truckenbrod explained further, "The fire district has the authority to run an ambulance service tomorrow but it would be depleting the funds available for fire protection." A tax levy would be needed, he said, to support rescue services. The earliest a referendum for such a levy could be placed on the ballot would be next November. A November, 1982, referendum would not produce funds until June, 1984, due to the tax struc­ ture, he concluded. A question arose whether an am­ bulance district could be formed separately, but Truckenbrod said there is no provision in the law for such a district. Johns burg Squad President Donald Bentz noted that he was not aware that this was a single issue meeting, that of merger, but thought it was being held for the purpose of investigating avenues for funding. John Lampe also indicated that alternate solutions should be pursued. Other discussion touched on the need to study consolidations in neighboring communities, concern over loss of quality control in expanding rescue squad staffs, economic ability of em­ ployers to release employed volunteers to respond to emergency calls, and funding concerns in a transition period. BUY NEW BUSES FOR LOCAL SCHOOL FLEET DISTRICT 15 (Continued from page 1) Boards, will be present to discuss with board members results of the self evaluation made recently., A committee to evaluate the superintendent will be selected as in the past, and members will work with him in setting goals. DISTRICT 156 (Continued from page 1) the other to Oregon, 111. The district provides bus transportation and the students pay for other expenses, ac­ cording to the administration. Spon- photographs illustrating the historical, social and healthful aspects of the Oregon trip. The subject of transportation came up again when board member Judith Zid reminded the group that a question had been raised regarding the disparity of the district funding transportation and other expenses for out-of-town athletic competition while not offering comparable funding for academic and vocational out-of-town competitions. Superintendent Robert Swartzloff assured her the administration would be reviewing school policy on the question during the summer. In personnel-related action, separations were accepted for Everett Ingersol, Earle B. Cooper, Myrtle Love and John Mergl. Employment of certified personnel was approved for Margaret S. Smith, East campus English instructor; Lynn M. Schnelker, district English in­ structor; Mary A. Johnson, West campus part-time home economics instructor; and Bonnie Ruggero, West campus part-time physical education instructor -- all for the 1982-83 year. Employment of classified personnel, John H. Rhodes as East campus custodian and El wood M. Rusco for district mail delivery, was also ap­ proved. As a result of a reorganization of the Maintenance department three em­ ployees were reassigned: William Jones from assistant maintenance position at West campus to general maintenance at the same school; Russell Tantillo from head main­ tenance position at East campus to general maintenance there; and Richard Becker from temporary East campus assistant maintenance position to district assistant maintenance engineer position. Dan Blanford, the recently employed District maintenance engineer, was introduced to the board members. Joel Boeka, president of the McHenry Warriors' Booster club, presented the board and the East and West campus principals with certificates of ap­ preciation for their cooperation during the past year. He stated that the Booster club had raised more than $22,000 which had been used for the awards banquet, awards and videotape equipment. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) people, for taking special enjoyment in today. The first was the gift of five at­ tractive pop-out pots from Maurie Taylor to help along a sagging garden. Even the tomato plant was impressed and immediately upon being tran­ splanted began to take on a life that had seemed to ebb so often in recent days. The second was a brief visit from Frank Leon to do something unique -- to give a lift to just an acquaintance. Conversation at a recent gathering he attended related a complimentary message which prompted him to ask, "Why don't you tell these people so they can enjoy the kind words?" But Mr. Leon is apparently a good judge of human nature. He knows few of us ever take the time to pass along a compliment, but we seldom pass up the opportunity to complain. So he came into our office to repeat good news. In our book that's a classy thing to do. And to top off a good day, we visited a friend in the hospital, only to find in the room two boys we judged to be about 12 or 13 years old. They had spent a half hour chatting with the neighbor they also called their friend, and who was several times their age. With these kind of people, our old world can't be all bad.

Police Investigate Armed Robbery Hey, all you aces- before you put up your new Cb antenna, look up. Heading for the backyard to put up that antenna for your base unit? Watch out for power lines, good buddy. Most power lines are twenty feet off the ground, but the ones to your house may be as low as 10 feet. So don't take any chances. When installing your CB antenna (or a new TV antenna), avoid putting it anywhere in the vicinity of any overhead lines. And provide enough space around f* it to prevent the wind from blowing it U KSl into the lines later. If you look up and steer clear, you can look forward to a sweet 10-2.
