Take coupons along on family vacations EY JIM Fuller Dear June: While packing for summer vacation last year, I decided to take along my high- value and free-product coupons for items our camping family of five could use, things like milk, cookies, snack items, cereal and charcoal. We try to eat out as little as possible so we can af­ ford to do all the things and see all the sights our children are interested in. You can what a pleasant surprise it was to arrive at our destination in Pennsylvania and find stores offering double coupons! I saved enough for two admissions to the theme park. - Joy Potter, W. Concord, You're up the very good Cpupon Clipper Dear Joy: I hope my readers will remember your good advice and take their coupons along when they go on vacation. Smart couponing can make those vacation dollars do a little extra stretching. Dear June: My wife urged me to look for coupons and refund forms and help her save box tops and labels. I redly didn't think much of the idea. I just couldn't see how all this work would pay off. I guess you could now say that i have s^en the light. So far this year, we have purchased a new vacuum cleaner, a side of beef and a rolltop desk with our coupon hnd refund savings. Thanks for the good advice. - Randy Davis, Springfield, Tenn. Dear Randy: welcome. Keep work! Dear June: I just had to tell you this story. Mott's had a recent offer of a free pound of fresh apples in return for apple juice proofs-of-purchase. The request form asked for the name of the store where the juice was purchased. I put Kroger's name on the form. When I received my coupon for apples, it stated they had to be purchased at a Kroger supermarket. Unfortunately, at that time employees at the Kroger stores in Pennsylvania were on strike, so I decided hold on to the coupon and wait it out. Four days later I received another envelope from Mott's and was surprised to find a check for $1. The" accompanying letter said that since Kroger was facing a strike, they didn't want me to lose out on the apples. What a great company! Mott's is definitely the most! - Cheryl reed, Butler, Pa. Dear Cheryl: It is always good to hear about companies who show outstanding consideration for their loyal customers. This kind of gesture makes a shopper feel that big companies do think of them.

On a 2*1 vote, the fire board directed trustee Kenneth Fishleigh to retrieve the tape and punch cards on dispatching of the second-level emergency from the Algonquin Police Deparment. Fishleigh and trustee Cletus Nockels voted to go forth with the investigation while fire board President Richard Ritt opposed the move "If there's already an in­ vestigation started, I don't think there should be any more in­ vestigations," Ritt said after his dissenting vote. Algonquin Police are con­ ducting their own investigation into the alleged emergency response delay with results to be presented in several weeks to the Algonquin village board for review, according to Police Chief Kenneth Bartels. An engaged Schaumburg couple drowned in the Fox River after going over the dam in a raft. A Hoffman Estates man was pulled to safety after thrashing in the current for some time to stay afloat on the raft. Fire Chief John Helfert has alleged that costly minutes were spent before fire officials were, notified of the imperiled rafters, time that could have saved the drowning victims' lives. Algonquin Police had been asked to turn over the emergency response tape and punch cards to the fire district this week but the police chief has said handing over those records will take another week, Helfert said. Concerned about retrieving resonto immediately, Fishleigh said he would approach Bartels for hie records. Fire\Board attorney Mike Kukla said/he would explore Tiifewiff f̂ Btut̂ s to determine if the district has subpoena powers which could be invoked should Algonquin Police refuse to turn over records immediately. The fire chief's request for an impartial investigation came after he received three letters, two from Algonquin women and one from an Elgin woman, who reportedly witnessed the entire scene Sunday. Helfert said in threatening situations such as Sunday's drowning, fire officials are to be immediately dispatched to the scene. Some reports have indicated an Algonquin policeman at the scene waited momentarily before calling for help, an issue that is center in the "per­ ception" of whether the raf- ters-who appeared to be en­ joying their ride-were really in danger, according to Bartels.

PAGE 13 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20,1984 Drunk driving is suspected cause of increase in highway fatalities Concerned about the recent jump in highway fatalities on the tollroads, Captain Hugh S. McGinley, commander of District 15 State Police in Oak Brook, is looking at ways to halt the surge. The five highway deaths the second week in June, all from separate accidents, brought the total fatalities for 1984 to 12. TTiis equals the total for all of 1983. Captain McGinley states; "Seven of our last eight fatalities have involved D.U.I, drivers. This figure supports my previous position that we have to remove the drunk drivers from our highways for everyone's sake. Gayle M. Franzen, executive director for the Toll Highway Authority is issuing instructions to his toll collectors to notify the state police when suspected drunk drivers enter their toll lanes. Sober drivers can do things to increase their chances of sur­ vival while on the highways. "The one thing drivers have total control over is seat belts," said McGinley. "Not one of the drivers or passengers killed this year was wearing them. If you see someone you think is a drunk driver, stay away from him and do not try to pass the car. Report the direction of travel of the car, the make, model, color and license plate number to the first toll plaza you stop at or the irst police officer you can contact. By driving defensively, the life you save may be yours." ING OR NOT!
