Principal Gerald Fain of the east campus reported that he ^had seen the mobile driving unit in operation in LaGrange, which will soon be moved to McHenry. A contract was approved for William Tonyan to erect concrete piers to hold the unit, located 30 feet from the east side of the school. Since students are now allowed to leave the grounds during lunch hour, the problem of running out of pencil and paper has come up on several occasions this fall. In the past, some merchants have complainedthatitis not the business of the school to furnish such items. A vote resulted in approval to supply just necessary articles .with only one dissenter, Board Member Donald Weingart. VENDING MACHINES Hie board decided against candy machines on the new campus, but there will be fruit machines available. Soft drinks will be available only in cups. The problem of controlling the students at football games brought a suggestion that parents offer cooperation by attending games with the young people. The worst offenders were reported tobethepre-high school students. Principal Richard Swantz of the west campus spoke of discipline under the new modular flexible program. He said only five had been suspended under the system, which allows greater freedom than in the past* Community School Director, Gene Little discussed the tentative pool schedule, which calls for public use of the unit from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and 2 to 5 p.m. Sundays. At present the newly formed Teen-age club will use the gym on the east campus and the pool on the west campus one night each week. POOR ACOUSTICS Disappointment was expressed over acoustics in the band room. The board voted approval for carpeting this section to correct the situation. Members approved the employment of three custodians at the east campus, one part time. Roy Homo heads that group. It was voted that five men will be needed on the west campus, headed by W. Murgao. The board voted to lease an additional bus to handle overload conditions. The price is $1,800 with option to buy. The board also acted on a motion that all citizens over 62 years of age residing within the limits of District 156 be admitted free of charge to all regular season home athletic events and all plays presented by the student body at the high schools, with the provision that there is space available. Joseph Schmitt was voted $2.50 per hour to act as special bus driver. Approval was made for employment of teachers' assistants for both campuses. The board also gave its okay to changing increment for the new tennis coach. The next meeting will be held at the west campus rather than the administration building.

That's what most of us old timers were saying Sunday morning after the flather-son-campout. It seems that in spite of the ground clothes, blankets and sleeping bags, we are at the "tender" age. Tlie stones still find their way to the sensitive spots in your back. Speaking of tender spots, Phil Russell should be an expert on that subject. Phil celebrated his fourteenth birthday on Saturday. Since the water was a little too cool and unsafe for a dunking in the lake, the traditional spanking was given. Being the good sport he is, the "gift" was painfully accepted, All in All, it was one of the best father-son campouts we have had in quite awhile. Monday night, Sept. 16, a court of honor was well attended by relatives and friends to witness the presentation of various awards hard earned since last April. Our best wishes and congratulations to the following: Kurt Kreimier, advanced to Second Class; Billy Schmitt to First class; Jim Bacon, advanced to Star by earning the following merit badges, swimming, citizenship in the home, rifle and shotgun, personal fitness, camping and cooking. This is one over the requirement so Jimmy has a start toward his Life rank. Phil Russell earned the public speaking, woodworking and pottery merit badges. John Weichmann and Kevin Hoak 'were presented with the conservation of natural resources badge and Ken Betts was given . the pottery merit badge. * To earn these awards each Scout must prove to the satisfaction of the scoutmaster and the board of review that he is knowledgeable enough in the field of his own choosing to pass a verbal examination. There were some proud people at the court of honor and probably a lump in dad's throat and a tear in mom's eye. Bill Reinwall, advancement chairman, made the presentations with the assistance of Jack Patzke, committee chairman, Bill Schmidt, assistant scoutmaster, and Les Bacon, Explorer advisor. The balance of the week will be devoted to a combined fund raising and safety campaign. The Scouts will be selling safety flare kits which actually could, be instrumental in saving your life. The kit contains two onehour flares and a snuffer. So, when a Scout from Troop 131 approaches you on a safety flare kit, you will be doing him and yourself a service by listening to his story. It may be a little crude, but I think you will understand.

Not far away, Mrs. Schroeder found the bird's nest which apparently had been shoved out of the trees. Cats had already devoured the other small Bluejays and were attempting to take the last one, later to become known as John Glenn. Mrs. Schroeder made the rescue and since that fateful day the bird has been thriving within a cage in the family home, pulling Michelle's hair and the buttons off her dress when she comes too close. His forgiving owner, a fifth grade pupil in Valley View school, may not have the world's most unusual pet but she is probably among its proudest trainers. Michelle has assurred us that "really you might sell some more papers if you had a Bluejay in there." „ The 21st Amendment (legalizing liquor) passed both houses and was ratified by 3/4 of the states, in nine months -- the shortest adoption time of any amendment, to date.

Front St. 385-2155 McHenry plfetely ignoring the sign. When one considers the injury that results daily from the carelessness of a driver behind the wheel of a few thousand pound auto, who forgets a stop sign, isn't it remarkable that our numerous 'cyclists have so miraculously escaped on so many occasions? It is certainly the duty of a driver to think both for himself and the youngsters for whom the wonders of the world around make him oblivious to all things. But even careful drivers are sometimes confronted with a situation that could easily become a tragedy. Or what about the bold young bicyclist who deliberately takes all of the liberties at his disposal to antagonize a driver? We understand there are communities in which a program of bicycle safety has been undertaken with considerable success. Licensing of these vehicles has made it possible to apprehend many a young violator who otherwise would have been o n his merry way without so much as a warning. Certainly a system of small fines and a few stern remarks from a police officer could not go amiss. Until such time as our city police can fit a plan into a busy schedule, possibly some foresighted organization might volunteer to undertake a program under police supervision. Every driver realizes the situation is serious, continuing well into the fall season. ^ K.A.F.
