McHENRY PLAINDEALER R*-Wd Asked For Memorial Hospital "" ' ' (Continued from Page 1) itect, consultant and contractors In order to determine what negotiations could be made in order to substitute a lower cost item in place of the type specified Without hurting the proposed layjM| it and construction of the building as planned. Some items specified will be omitted to begin With but will be added when ftfnds are available. ' 7; , Ask For More Bids. In Ire-bidding the job, it is hoped that there will be . additional contractors who would be Interested in bidding. During August and September, some of the contractors were busy wth jobs under construction and they were tillable to figure the hospital job. The architects are asking for bids on the job at present. The new bids are scheduled to be opened on Thursday evening, Nov. • 29, at 8 p.m. in the council fyom of " the Woodstock City Hall. The present plans remain the same arid will provide for the future verticle expansion. All new facilities will be provided and a new obstetrical department is included in the present plan. The woman's auxiliary hasN> indicated that they want to sponsor the cost of constructing this section of the building. One of the requirements by the State of Illinois, Department of Public Health, is for the hospital tb pro- Vide separate facilities for all • maternity patients. Completion Date Once the contracts are awardfid and construction gets underway, it is estimated that completion of the -proposed building Would be approximately fourteen Months away. Application has been made to Sfeveral investment firms to determine the possibility of a loan commitment, "the "tight money'" policy of the federal government has affected the loaning power of the various companies who would ordinarily be interested in handling a loan such as the loan which the hospital would like to make. "Hie finance committee of the board is also attempting to obtain a loan commitment from local sources. If this is accomplished, construction could begin shortly after the bid opening date.

Buy U.S. savings Boiui* ' The response of McHenry county businesses, organizations and citizens to raise $17,500 for the county Children's/home at Woodstock in the annual fund drive has been "most gratifying," the Rev. Clarence Kerr, administrative assistant and fund drive chairman, said this week. This amount is almost. twice what has been raised in previous years, and the need for the greater total can be traced to expansion of services provided by the home and greater operating expenses. Mr. Kerr said contributions from the county so far total over $10,000, leaving $7,000 necessary to meet this County's share of the $65,000 budget. Of the remainder needed, about $35,000 will be contributed by the Free Methodist churches of the midwest, plus court placements and whatever portion a parent or guardian can provide. ' The six Granges in the county will conduct, a rural canvass of their areas or conduct "a benefit and an estimated $2,000 will be derived from these sources. Mr. Kerr said that it is planned to place containers in the county cities and villages under sponsorship of an interested civic or veterans' organization. "These coin containers will be cut between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and we are hopeful citizens will be generous in their contributions because we plan no door-to-door solicitations in the towns and villages of the county except Woodstock," said Mr. "Kerr. The home, which added important space with this acquisition of Harrison House, a teen-age home, now has fifty-three children.
