Observe Loyally Day ***' ' V/' y Vt -s- ,, t-H 196S°69 Year To Be Crucial In District 15 (Continued from page 1) crowded school systems. Two complete shifts of students would use the building, the morning shift coming in to start at about 7 a.m. and staying until noon and the afternoon shift attending school from 12:30until 5:30. In this system, students would attend school either in the mornings or in the afternoons and would be free the rest of the day. The third alternative mentioned to the school board was mobile classrooms. Mobile classrooms can be purchased or rented, and can provide immediate space to alleviate overcrowding. They can be used near a present school or can be set off by themselves in growing neighborhoods to provide semi-permanent classroom space. Rental of temporary buildings, another alternative the board examined, would also provide needed space immediately. The problem with renting existing structures in the community is that they would have to be extensively rennovated to bring them up to the stringent regulations of the Illinois Life Safety School Code« YEAR ROUND SCHOOL Year-round school, a topic much discussed in education circles, also has been much discussed by the District 15 school board. This would provide extra space for students by having some sort of required summer session. A Citizen's Advisory committee group is presently studying this possibility. One way to absorb students for next year would be to increase class size, Dr. Bergstrom told the board. This would solve crowding problems in the elementary school, but because the whole building is full in the Junior high school, an increase of class size would not alleviate crowded conditions there. Landmark school, another alternative , could be used to house students temporarily, but only if the public would vote a bond issue for rennovation of the building to suit the standards of the Life Safety Code. Ringwood school might be rented as another alternative. This would provide the school with four classrooms, but transportation problems would be increased. As another partial solution, kindergarten might be eliminated. This would work for only 1969 because of a new state law requiring kindergarten to be offered through the public schools in 1970. Two rooms could be provided to the district if rooms granted to special education were put back into use as regular classrooms. The rennovation of the Junior high school to use non-classroom space as classroom space was also discussed by the board. The gymnasium, stage and library could be rebuilt and divided into the needed classroom space. The school board talked about having some firm build a school structure, then leasing it from them. This alternative would prove costly and would provide the taxpayer with little return for his tax dollar. USE OF BUSES In some school districts buses have been used as emergency classrooms. This alternative has also been examined by the elementary district board. The multi-purpose rooms in Valley View and Hilltop schools could be rebuilt into classroom space. This wouldprovide some elementary space and students could then be shifted from Edgebrook into these schools and Junior high students could be shifted to Edgebrook school. Houses that could be used for kindergarten and for primary grades have been built in various neighborhoods. When the school builds a permanent building, the house is remodeled and sold as a domestic dwelling. From this list of alternatives the school board must supply a solution that will take care of crowded conditions in local schools for at least two years. The measures listed above are temporary ones, from which one or possible two must be chosen to cope with problems of overcrowding that McHenry schools will face next year. The board's decision will be made upon economy, practicality and the future use of the buildings. But the primary concern of the board is that the student will still be able to get the best possible opportunity for education that can be provided him under less than desirable conditions.

Previous Liberty Bell award winners include Sister Alberta Marie, Marian teach at the time, 1965; Russell Reimer, county probation office, 1966 and Lowell Nye, Harvard editor, 1967. A mock trial at Marian Central high school was attended by seniors from several county high schools. Juries were chosen from among students as Harold McKenney represented the prosecution and Mike Caldwell defended the accused murderer. Judge Carroll sat on the bench in the realistic courtroom setting. Three juries found the defendent "not guilty" and another was a hung jury. In opening remarks at the Circuit courtroom, Herrmann said, "A lawful society can build a better society, yet society is not built solely upon the law of custom but the laws of fathers and mothers, families and friends - yes, even cm the moral and religious heritages."

SHOP IN MCHENRY VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS OF «„ we care The Veterans of Foreign Wars sponsor Loyally Day programs on May 1. Combat war veterans plan parades, flag ceremonies, public speakers and other activities to emphasize dedication to American freedom ideals and readiness to defend the nation against subversive influences. The above VFW poster depicting Gen. George Washington praying in the snow at Valley Forge expresses the patriotic theme. Fox River Post, No. 4600 'mmu. medBee. ,'APork and the ladies auxiliary of the Veterans of Foreign Wars ask everyone to participate in the observance of Loyalty Day on May 1. They ask that the community fly flags with pride and join in reaffirming a dedication to American freedom ideals and opposition to all subversive influences. The patriotic theme, "For God, Flag and Country", will be the Keynote accenting Loyalty Day. This special day was originated by the VFW as a countyoffensive against Communism and other anti-American May Day demonstrations. The VFW members all over the country pushed the Communists and their sympathizers into the back ground with patriotic activities dramatizing positive Americanism. More than 1,400,000 VFW members are doing that on May 1. They will take the lead in dramatizing every loyal citizen's pride in being part of the United States, and their dedication to "God, Flag and Country". OPEN DRIVE ON LARGE DELINQUENT AREA TAX BILLS In honor of Law Day, the McHenry County Treasurer's office urges citizens who owe delinquent personal property tax to pay them promptly. "In a country where people realize the necessity of an orderly society, non-payment of local taxes cannot help but increase overt lawlessness," commented McHenry Country Treasurer Cal Skinner, Jr. "We cannot pick and choose which laws we obey and then condemn others who do likewise," he continued. "But, if we don't like a given law, it is our duty to work for its modification or elimination." The Delinquent Personal Property tax division of the Treasurer's office is in the process of compiling lists of those citizens who have refused to pay more than $100 in taxes. People and businesses on these lists will then become the - target of intensive collection efforts, as directed by the state law. Thus far, 738 names have been selected in Algonquin township, 325 in Nunda and 100 in McHenry township. The big non-taxpayers in Algonquin Township owe a total of $257,000, while those targeted in Nunda Township owe $110,000. Lists now being compiled for McHenry township are BEAUTIFICATION COUNCIL TELLS / GROUP'S & AIMS (Continued from page 1) a determined effort to see that we do get help. "What we are concerned with is an exciting, exhilarating adventure of making McHenry the most beautiful city imaginable. All this won't be done in one short week, but it can be done by your unfaltering determination and with the co-operation of all the good people in the community. "I speak from experience when I say that when you ask for something in McHenry which will benefit the whole community, these people will not let you down. "The formation of the McHenry Beautification council will be a great help toward beautifying McHenry, but it is not the only key to the success of the project. I think of the story about a key which opens the drawer wherein lie other keys, Every person in this community is a key. "Sincerely, "William J. Bolger" what kind of cG^emakfcj' Qt It really doesn't matter. Any coffeemaker can give you a good cup of coffee, providing you use a fine fresh coffee that is ground exactly right for your coffeemaker. v We've always known that the correct grind is important to coffee flavor. That's why, years ago, we developed Custom-Grinding. That's why we don't have just one or two grinds but seven different grinds... to fit any coffeemaker, including electric percolators, of course, (Ask for medium-fine grind for electrics). Custom-Grinding means a little extra work for us and a little extra time for you. (It takes 15 seconds to grind a pound). But what a difference in flavor those few seconds make. You know, there's only one reason we insist on selling custom-ground bean coffees... WE CARE. COPYRIGHT £ 1967. THE GREAT ATLANTIC & PACIFIC TEA CO . INC.
