Rummage Sale At Woman‘s Club Oct. 27 , Making its final report late Friâ€" day afternoon of last week, the Octoâ€" ber grand jury of Lake County reâ€" turned noâ€"bills following an inquiry into charges brought against Superâ€" visor William Obee, of Highland Park; Chief. of Police Edwin Ahiâ€" strom of Waukegan; and A. E. Hueneryager, Zion Township clerk. Mr. Obee was accused of malfeasâ€" ance in office in connection with alâ€" leged misappropriation of ore than $100,000 of Deerfield To‘ahip lina. In addition to this, the local chapter ° contributes annually to three similar schools. Each ticket for the party purchased by a memâ€" ber or a friend helps to carry on this much neéded work in districts that would be entirely without eduâ€" cational opportunity if such contriâ€" butions by interested organizations and individuals were withdrawn. The rBaeside P.T.A. feels fortuâ€" nate in having secured Capt. Rook as a speaker,.and extends a hearty invitation to{all members of the community, whether they have chilâ€" dren in the school or not, to come and hear him, and to join :in the social hour following the lecture. Royal Air Froce will be the speakâ€" er at the next meeting of the Braeâ€" side Parentâ€"Teacher and Civic Asâ€" sociation. His recordâ€"breaking solo fiight ef 7,000 miles, from London to East Indig, included some most adventuresome forced landings. He will tell of these, and also of a reâ€" cent trip across South America. _ SUPERYVISOR OBEE) |"Tora‘ter d ‘ E A Nonâ€"Partisan Group October â€" Session â€" "Noâ€"Bills"| ; Several hundred Hihlard Park Charges APM Local word| nv:m members og the Highâ€" Township Officer land) Park League of Women Votâ€" Making its final report M_M ;?" ol::::c%::e::..

A citizen‘s committee last spring demanded a grand jury investigation following revelation that a number of bills had been paid twice, and that excessive amounts had been paid for certain purchases. The majority of the grand jurors, however, held that this was due largely to the fact that the superâ€" visor was overburdened with work and did not have adequate help.
