Governor Richard B Ogilvie has proclaimed the week July 2-8 as Safe Boating Week in Illinois The governor's proclamation followed a similar one by President Nixon, who proclaimed the week as National Safe Boating Week and urged all states to do so. The theme for this year's week is "Safe Boating is No Ac­ cident'. "Last year 29 persons died as the result of boating accidents on Illinois waters," said Henry N Barkhausen, Director of the Illinois Department of Con­ servation "All of these ac­ cidents could have been prevented if the boaters would have employed safe .boating procedures. The purpose of f^afe Boating Week is to promote these safe boating practices and to encourage boaters to follow the rules each time they take their craft out." In conjunction with the week, conservation law enforcement EARL WALSH Note to "My" -- (Marie) - Bill DeVries came in to complain that your column last week when we were away was too short Guess he wanted a big blow about his beloved Cubs But. we can sympathize with you.

On July 1 and 2, the officers will be conducting courtesy checks at 27 heavily used boating areas throughout the state. Emphasis of the courtesy checks is placed on safety rather than law en­ forcement. The officers will answer questions pertaining to Illinois boating laws, and show boaters deficiencies in their equipment. "It is our goal to make people aware of the safe boating procedures, not to ticket them for not following them," said William Miller, Chief of the Division of I^aw Enforcement. "However, if we find a boat on a lake or stream in violation with our laws we write them a ticket. Through vigorous en­ forcement we have cut down on the number of accidents in the state." Illinois has the most com­ prehensive boating education program in the United States. A safe boating class is taught in many schools and colleges, and to adults in night classes. 15 states are now using, or have asked permission to use, the program Following is the text of the Governor's proclamation: "Emphasis on more leisure time and development of reservoirs and other water impoundments are increasing boating on our nation's" waterways at a rapid rate. "Often, however, what begins as a pleasant cruise ends in tragedy because boaters fail to teach their families to swim, fail to properly equip their craft with personal flotation devices, or fail to instruct their passengers in the use of these devices. "Observance of safety rules is imperative if we are to reduce the number of accidents that result in the loss of some 1,500 lives in our nation each year. "Recognizing the need for public education in safe boating practices, Congress has requested the President to proclaim the week including July 4 as National Safe Boating Week, and the Governors, in turn, to promote a similar observance in their states. "Therefore I, Richard B. Ogilvie, Governor of the State of Illinois, proclaim July 2-8, 1972 Safe Boating Week in Illinois. I urge all Mayors in the state to promote this ob­ servance in their localities and all who use our waterways to take advantage of courses in boating safety and to acquire and apply the skills essential to their own and others' safety. To those who voluntarily give of their time during this ob­ servance, I express my per­ sonal appreciation." We learn that Jerry Rodenkirch has one cousin who isn't a Sox fan. All the rest of the family belong to the crowd. Further - that following any family gathering, that ory& cousin leaves in a battered atjid worn condition. KING AND QUEEN - We are again proud to report that Lina Miller and her roller skating partner, Bryan Kasper, danced and glided to sweep first place in state competition at Granite City, Illinois last week To top this off, two skating organizations merged and arranged competition. Now, who do you suppose won this one? Yep Lina and Bryan. So, this fine young couple came home with a trophy and medals. Such good news of young people goes right to our heart. We offer congratulations and best wishes for continued success. The Wayne Gaylords joined the throng at Sox Park Wed­ nesday to watch the home team bombard the league leading Oakland "A's". Wayne is vacationing so the sports page will miss his sharp pictures this week. When speaking of old acquaintances, our grand­ mother used to say, "I dunno is he dead or alive." The hero of this story drove to Barrington, parked his car and took the choo-choo train to Chicago. Starting home, he missed his train in Chicago and had to wait an hour for the next one. He fell asleep on the train and awoke at Fox River Grove. Off he got! There was some delay and mixup in getting a cab to take him south again to pick up his car. An hour went by - and an hour and a half. In desperation, he called his wife, who had to drive way down from Regner Road, to take him to Barrington. Far be it from us to reveal this hero's name. Don't go tellin' everybody but his initials are A.J R. and he is a great Lawrence Welk fan Never let it be said that we tell varns about our friends.

I Coast Guard | J BOATING SAFETY NEWS The Coast Guard will be cracking down this summer on boatmen who carry passengers for hire without the proper type of license. Special licenses, "operator" or "ocean operator" are issued to boatmen carrying six or more passengers for hire. Operators of "inspected" vessels receive master, mate or pilot licenses. ("Inspected" vessels are vessels of over 150 gross tons and engaged in commerce, or vessels carrying six or more people for hire). Boatmen carrying less than six passengers for hire need the "motorboat operator's licen­ se". In all cases, these licenses must be posted and be available for immediate production to a Coast Guard boarding officer during the operation of the vessel. These licenses are issued only to "persons of good character after physical and professional examinations, and upon proper proof of experience and capability which warrant the belief that the operator can be safely entrusted with the duties and responsibilities to operate a motorboat carrying Art Jackson shot a sizzling 66 to defeat Ed Buss and win the Directors' Tournament in Class A at the club on Sunday, June 25. As good as Art was on Sunday it was not until the 16th hole that Ed was finally closed out and his even par 71 was also a great display of golf. In Class B, Bob Andrews beat Gunnar Nelson in a tight match that was not decided until the final hole. In a hard fought battle Tom McNulty won over Herb Reihansperger and Junior Tonyan defeated Paul Rizzo. Our congratulations to these men on being trophy winners. The first round of the Presidents' Tournament will begin at the club on Sunday, (?July 2^ilong with the "Corky" Maierhofer Trophy Tour­ nament, and on July 4 the Firecracker special will be played. Low net winners on Sunday were: Class A - Art Jackson, John Varese, Ed Buss. Class B - Jack Smithson, Tom McNulty, Hal Nilles. Class C - John Nolan, Bob Schmaling, Junior Tonyan. Tigers Split Pair Over Week-End; McHenry At Johnsburg Next Sunday The Johnsburg Tigers split a pair of games last weekend on the road, losing to Elgin Merchants five to four on Saturday and beating Judson College four to three on Sunday. On Saturday in Elgin, the Merchants used the long ball to defeat the Tigers. Two long hqme runs off starter and loser Greg Freund cleared the Wing Park fences. Meanwhile, the Tigers spent a frustrating afternoon, stranding ten runners on base over the last seven innings. Sunday's game saw John­ sburg come from behind to score two runs in the ninth in defeating Judson College. Tom passengers for hire." These licenses may be applied for at Coast Guard Marine Inspection Offices. There is no federal requirement for recreational boat operators to be licensed. However, some states have license requirements for junior operators. Boatmen are required to register their boats in the state in which they are used and, while underway, to carry their boat registration wfth them. Recreational boaters can call their local Coast Guard unit to find out where to register. Hurckes and Dave Klapperich each contributed two hits to the Tiger attack, while Tim Freund and Mike Freund pitched six hit ball. On Sunday, July 2, the Johnsburg team will play at home against the McHenry Shamrocks. This will be a big game for both teams, since both teams have a good shot at their divisional title. Also, the Tigers want to avenge an earlia- loss to McHenry. On July m, Johnsburg will host Evan&on in a holiday game at Johnsburg. Both these games will begin at 1:30 p.m. Why not spend part of your holiday watching some interesting baseball? Chain-0-Lakes Power Squadron FIRE! FIRE! These words are among the most frightening of all words to the boater. It is the fear of all fears. When a fire breaks out on board a boat, panic and chaos spreads rapidly. Where do you go? What do you do? The lives of all of the passengers are at stake. First you must remain calm and collected, then take the necessary steps to combat and control your flaming enemy. If you must abandon ship, first make sure that everybody aboard has their life-saving device with them. Swim only far enough to be safe from danger, do not try to swim to shore, it will only hamper rescue operations. To learn more about how to handle your boat and to prevent fires on board, plan to attend the Chain-O-Lakes Power Squadron's National Safe Boating Week program at Korpan's Landing Yacht club July 9, 1972. See fire control demonstrations, actual boat fire and rescue, boating antics, USCGA Courtesy Examination, and many more exciting demonstrations. Attend FREE Mini-classes in Safe Boating, July 2 and July 9 at Fox Lake, 111. Classes will be held in the boat house from 9 a.m. to noon. All ages are in­ vited to attend. Refreshments will be on hand. See you July 2 and 9. For more information on either the classes or the program call (312) 497-4196.
