PAGE 18 - PLA1NDEALER-WEDNESDAY. APRIL 3, 1174 MCC SEWER COST UP $56,000 (Continued from page 1} Baxter and Woodman, was in attendance at the meeting and, told trustees there were two reasons for the increase in the sewer construction costs. Heck said that recent soil borings taken of the sewer route revealed there is approximately 1,000 feet of bad ground to cross which would require special sewer* construction. Also, the cost of pipes for the project have increased. "I thought I'd better give you the bad news now on the increased costs while you are in the process of negotiating rather than when you are further down the line," Heck explained. TYiis means the college needs to get $50,000 over and above what is already pledged, Trustee Herbert Lutter noted. William Carroll, Jr., attorney for the board, warned that property owners should not be told they can recoup or recapture their losses later by allowing hookups to the sewer line cm their property since there is no legal way they can do it. It was noted that the area in question is part of the Water Shed and while there is no moritorium on building in the fpea at the present time, there Is a Water Shed study being made by the city of Crystal Lake which is a "subtle moritorium". Dr. James R. Davis, president of the college and Smith were authorized to appear at the next Crystal Lake City Council meeting and appeal to the city to take some responsibility or action to help the college meet the cost of the sewer. <; In other action, the board accepted with regret, the resignation of Bob Matte as basketball coach. He will remain at the college as a full time mathematics instructor. * The firm of Brook, Zbornik and Associates was authorized to perform the annual audit at a fee of $1,200. * The Capital Development board notified the college that bid proposals for construction of hydraulic elevator and wells FIRE SCHOOL DISTRICT HEAD BEFORE BIG CROWD (Continued from page 1) known as "Spring Grove Parents for Better School Relations".

Following a two-hour deliberation, Dr. Tavano was asked to appear before the board in closed session. Ten minutes later the board returned to acknowledge the petition presented and to announce its decision for dismissal. The vote was unanimous. for the new college will be opened on Tuesday, April 9. The One and Five Year Vocational plan for MCC was approved by the board as presented and submitted to the Department of Vocational Technical Education for the state of Illinois. These are guidelines for the college to follow. The board also authorized the initiation of a student literary magazine as an official college publication. Discussion was held on the graphic arts program but action was postponed until a further report is received from the graphic arts advisory committee. . A letter was received from the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) concerning a request to raise the amount of the lease for the present interum campus building for 1973-74 by $9,000 because of increased utilities costs. This would raise the years cost of the building from $112,800 to $121,800. Dr. Davis was told to contact IIT and ask for further negotiations on the price. Since the college does have a lease, it would not have to agree to the increased price. In other business, Sue Schiller was hired as a secretary in the office of instruction, Donald Bean was employed as a computer programmer and Bill Johnson was hired for tennis coach.

He stated he would seek legal advice^ and asked for a hearing with the board. Attorneys for the school said he was entitled to such a hearing in executive session. At the conclusion of the special meeting, the fired school head was given encouragement through loud applause. Referring to attorneys representing the firm of Robbins, Nicholas, Lifton & Schwartz of Chicago, one voice from the audience asked the school board, "And who is paying for these attorneys?" There was no response. A woman in the audience, suggested that everyone knew the school board had paid attorneys. She asked who would pay for the legal counsel for Dr. Tavano. j Following much discussion, one citizen^* Jerry Hack, advised the audience to "show your feelings by voting in the school board election April 13, There are four candidates for two vacancies. Some parents expressed their readiness to boycott by keeping their children home from school. The move subsided when Dr. Tavano urged them, "Do not penalize the children, such a move would do far more harm than good". Mrs. Tavano encouraged keeping the children in school as she thanked the audience for its support. Just what touched off the controversy over Dr. Tavano's capabilities was not made clear at the meeting. One point raised among his supporters was a recent incident regarding a controversy over filing a petition fqr Mrs. Shirley Thompson, an incumbent who seeks reelection. She reportedly was denied the right to file a petition the first time by Dr. Tavano because she did not have receipt attached for "a statement of economic interest" from the County Clerk. Don Behling, assistant principal and teacher in District 11, was appointed by the board to serve as temporary superintendent.

Helen Mordhorst FROM THE Pruning fruit plants improves quality and size of the crop. Both fruit trees and small fruit plants benefit from annual pruning. Most small fruit plants try to over-produce and by priming, you help balance the amount of fruiting. Raspberries, grapes, and blackberries especailly benefit from spring pruning. When grapes are not pruned, a jungle of old canes is created which severly reduce fruit production. Leave 10 to 15 buds on each of 4 fruiting canes and remove all other canes. Renewal spurs are also needed to produce new fruiting canes for next year's grape crop. Cut back 4 one-year-old canes to 2 buds each. One spur should be located on each arm near each trellis wire. For black and purple raspberries, and erect blackberries, select 4 or 5 vigorous canes per plant and remove all other canes at the ground level. Thin out weHk and diseased laterals on each cane and shorten the selected laterals to 8 to 10 inches on Mack raspberries and 12 to 18 Stevens, May 4, 1931; two brothers, two sisters, one grandchild and one great­ grandchild. Hie body will rest at the Ehorn-Adams funeral home, Richmond, from 2 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Wednesday, where Masonic sfervices will be held at 8:30 p.m. Funeral services will be held at 1:30 Thursday afternoon with Rev. Glenn Mensing of the Community church officiating. Burial will be in Richmond cemetery. Memorials may be made to the Richmond rescue squad.

State Farm Insurance Companies Hoime Offices: Bloomington, Illinois inches on purple raspberries and erect blackberries. With red and yellow raspberries, remove all short and weak canes and thin the remaining vigorous canes to 5 to 8 per plant in the hill system of culture. Or, with other systems, space canes 4 to 8 inches apart. Top the selected canes at 5 to 6 feet if they are supported by stakes or trellises. If they are not supported, top them at 3 to 4 feet. Pruning keeps fruit trees vigorous and insures the growth of new fruiting wood. But, poor pruning may be worse than no pruning at all. Young trees should receive only light pruning to develop tree structure. Remove dead, broken, or diseased limbs and thin out areas of dense growth to make spraying and picking easier and to improve light penetration. Make the cuts close to the limb base but don't leave a stub. Stubs die back and make a good place for wood rot. Paint all cuts that are larger than two inches in diameter. McHenry County Extension office recommends removing 2 to 5 percent of the bearing wood from dwarf apple trees, 5 to 10 percent from regular apple trees, 10 to 20 percent from peach trees, 4 to 8 percent from red tart cherry trees, and 6 to 10 percent from plums. In early bearing years, use the lower figure. For older trees use the larger figure. Keep trees low and open. Annual pruning will make this much easier. Stop in to the Extension Service and pick up circulars on pruning trees, growing tree fruits, growing raspberries, and blackberries. The office is located at the Old Courthouse, 2nd floor, in Woodstock. ALFALFA Alfalfa usually becomes better established if you seed it without a companion crop. The plants are more evenly distributed, and since they are not shaded by a tall companion crop, they have a better opportunity to develop. But, a higher seeding rate is required. In the northern half of Illinois, 18 pounds per acre may be profitable for early April seedings of alfalfa alone when 2 or 3 harvest are taken the seeding year. WHO KNOWS? 1.
