VARIETY SHOW AT EAST CAMPUS (Continued from page 1) Maribeth Karas will be performing in the skit, "Little Red Riding Hood and Her Friends." They promise a slight twist on a familiar tale. Bryan O'Neill, Betty Winters and Nancy Schmitt will be acting in a short scene from Chekhov's "A Marriage Proposal". Kim Jergens will be dancing to "Hello Dolly" and Vicki Roth will be performing on the balance beam. While the East campus stage band plays "Light My Fire", Dawn Welch, baton twirling champion, will be twirling her fire batons. Brenda Love will perform a piano solo, arid also provide the accompaniment for several of the singers. The rock band "Aquid Knight, will complete the program, but not before the East campus faculty has had its try at "serious" acting in "Trouble in Dental City" or "Dan Dentist to the Rescue." Tickets will be on^ale at the door before each performance. BACK EFFORTS TO NEGATE RTA VOTE (Continued from nage 1) the members of the press serve as watchdogs as the RTA program unfolds. "Chicago newspapers and many radio stations endorsed the RTA program as a proper approach. With the people outside Chicago against it, and with the narrow margin of approval, I believe the press has the opportunity to monitor the action of those establishing the board and i m p l e m e n t i n g t h e referendum," said Walters. "Hie press can also watch the General Assembly to be sure it acts in a responsible manner." Walters repeated Farm Bureau's viewpoint that was expressed before the election- farm people are not against the concept of mass transportation for the metropolitan area but they disagree with many aspects of the RTA proposal as given voters on a "take it or leave it" basis last week. "We look forward to a responsible fulfillment of the shaky vote for the RTA. We will continue to exercise our judgment as a responsible organization with citizens living in the metropolitan area. Farmers will have a large share of the tax load with this decision." All Farm Bureaus in the counties affected voted before the referendum to recommend a "No" vote on the issue last week. Walters said his preference would be that counties which voted negatively on the RTA be allowed to withdraw from the {dan through an amendment of the law. But the means to obtain federal subsidy includes the counties in the "metropolitan area" so there is little likelihood the General Assembly would permit the collar counties to withdraw, he believes. ARREST JUVENILE, SEEK OTHERS IN AUTO THEFT , (Continued from page 1) Molnar stopped the car, but as he stepped from the squad to question th^. driver, the latter took off at a high rate of speed. Officers Molnar and Crawford gave chase, at the same time alerting Crystal Lake and county police to set up a road block at Rt. 176. As the stolen car approached and saw the flashing lights, the driver pulled to the side at 440 Walkup road and two boys ran behind a house. The officers ran after them and managed to MUSIN" N'* MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) we are bound unuer its regulations and assured of little for the masses. The chances of defeating the issue were slight from the beginning ~ 3,000,000 registered voters in Cook to 700,000 in the other five counties - but the effort to defeat it was valiant. A call to our office from a Wisconsin resident indicates a very real fear that the Chicago & North Western railway might eliminate service as far as Lake Geneva. The caller claimed that this indention was made known by the railroad prior to the election. U n f o r t u n a t e l y , w h e r e discontinuance of service has been under control of the ICC, a provision of the RTA excludes it from that jurisdiction. On and on, the complaints continue to be made. They are having one good effect. Those who listen to TV commentators who favored the RTA know that the large anti-vote in the suburban area has reached the top. Some commentators have made a point of strongly urging the powers-that-be to make an effort - and make it soon - to allay the fears of people who have little faith in promises and no promises in writing through the document. If opponents are able to take their case to court, implementation of the RTA will' be delayed. It may be all over but the shouting - but there may be plenty of that before this whole issue is settled! «••••••• We are now winding up the traditionally windy month of March, with flying skirts and kites which old and young notice in their respective leagues. Kite flying had been a popular sport in many countries longer than flying skirts. Youngsters should be cautioned to avoid electric power lines, especially against using wire or cord with tinsel wound into it. Each year mishaps occur because of carelessness. * By now, oldsters ought to know the dangers of flying skirts- K.A.F. HONOR GRADUATE Christine S. Duel of McHenry graduated Magna Cum Laude at commencement exercises held recently at Mankato State college, Mankato, Minn. She was awarded a B.S. degree in recreation and park administration.

Approve Option For Purchase Of Conservation Land The McHenry County Conservation district trustees, at their regular March meeting, by a vote of 4 to 0 approved exercising an option to purchase 178 acres of land located in Section 5 of Algonquin township. Ap­ proximately 63 acres of the area is low marsh land which drains into the Fox river close by. The remaining land is high, rolling and wooded, with hickory and oak abundant. Hie $2200 per acre price established by appraisal was acceptable to the sellers and to the trustees of the district. This is the first acquisition by the Conservation district in the southeastern area of the county. Plans for the area include-the maintenance of wildlife habitat, the establishment of hiking trails, picnic sites and areas for wilderness camping for supervised organized groups. • The project ^has been favorably reviewed by the McHenry County Planning commission and the Northeastern Illinois Planning commission, making the project eligible to submit for a reimbursable grant. The property has been inspected by the Illinois Department of Conservation for the Illinois Open Space Land Acquisition program and the district given the authority to proceed with completing a grant request. If such a request is made, cost sharing of up to 75 per cent of the land acquisition cost will be made on a reimbursable basis. Final decision on projects to be approved by the illinois Department of Conservation Advisory board will be made no later than Aug. 31, 1974. In exercising the option the seller is now obligated to0 furnish a survey by a licensed registered surveyor and a commitment for title insurance in the amount of the purchase price, showing clear tide before the contract is complete. The seller has 60 days in which to furnish these documents. The option calls for completing the transaction before Nov. 1,1974. The district is in a position to take possession of the property on Oct. 1 of this year.

So, keep spending at a minimum for the next two weeks ... just in case! Things should go well, exceptionally well. One problem, however. You might face the "crisis of over confidence." Incidentally, in one form or another, you'll hit the jackpot. Overtures and trafficking with questionable members of the opposite sex, shows in the charts of many Gemini persons. So, work at staying in bounds. It's not often that you step out of character, but this week, you just won't be yourself. Guard against being neglectful of loved ones--your pet, included. A far off, former partner or associate, wants to offer you a financial proposition. Anyway, it's not a good time to make any major changes. At last! In the general scheme of things, it seems as though your past efforts and perform­ ance will be rewarded. One other thing, don't betray an associate's confidence. Your E. S. P. intuition, or whatever seems to be peaking. It might be a good idea to follow your feelings, as far as the opposite sex is concerned. For most members of your sign, it's mischief on the march. So, it's very possible that youll become involved in affairs of secret order. This week, put wishful thinking where it be­ longs. Don't be led down any garden path by a fast talker who wants to give you the "whole world." Sharp, cagey and cunning; that's the terms that best describe most members of your sign. So, put your persasive power to work, during this week's cosmic cycle. Many members under your sign will be given the responsibility of handling someone else's money or personal articles. It's possible, too, that you will be "pinch hitting." If someone stresses or insists that they are a friend--beware! Advice? Just try to make it through the week without getting involved in gossip. 9* HOUGHTON HEATING • Air Conditioning • Gutters PHONE 385-5476 McHENRY DR. LEONARD B0TTARI 3 0 3 N .
