CATTLE SALE ENDS ERA (Continued from page 1) The actual sale was con­ ducted in an intricate manner. Each lot was displayed in the indoor arena, while prospective buyers sat in the bleachers and indicated bids to men on the floor. The men on the floor would then, in turn, relay the bid to the auctioneer. Four nationally known auctioneers were brought in for the sale. A magazine listing every l$t was distributed earlier, so that ranchers wishing to bid on animals, but could not attend the sale, would have the op­ portunity to do so. A telephone was installed adjacent to the auctioneer for anyone wishing to phone in a bid prior to an animal being displayed. Also, Mrs. Scott said that some ranchers phoned prior to the sale, stating that they wanted to buy certain lots, and their bids were included when it came time to auction the animals off. The auction was conducted for eight hours Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and until all animals were sold Thursday. When the last animal was sold, it marked not only the end of the sale--it was the end of an era HOST OPEN HOUSE The firemen of Company I will host an open house Sunday, Oct. 16, from 1 to 3 p.m. at the firehou8e.

There was also a report of vandalism in the Bull Valley area, with Ann Collins of 1904 Cherry Valley road, reporting that her mailbox had been shattered by use of a blunt instrument. She told police that she heard noises, and then heard a car speed away, but apparently could not give police a description of (he vehicle. Finally, a pickup truck and a speedboat were found aban­ doned during the week, with police continuing their search for the owners. At 1:50 p.m. Saturday, an employee of Pink Harrison's Resort, 801 Harrison, McHenry, reported that during the early morning hours, someone had abandoned a black, homemade, plywood speedboat with a 25 hp. out­ board motor near the Resort's docks. The craft was secured until the identity of the owner can be determined.

Apparently, Kroske beeilhe uncooperative with police, which caused his arrest. One additional arrest during the week found Charles O'Conner of 4008 N.

He was freed on $1,000 bond for a Nov. 27 court appearance: According to police, a?*li9Q a.m. Tuesday, an auto was observed being driven in an erratic manner on Church street in Johnsburg, and they stopped it to investigate. The officer apparently found O'Conner to be intoxicated, resulting in his arrest for the offense. BOUNDARY LINE CHANGE MAJOR SCHOOL PROBLEM (Continued from page 1) adminstration will report to the board concerning a request from the executive board of the Special Education District of McHenry County to construct four classrooms at one or more of the local campuses. SEDOM has construction funds for the project readily available. SEDOM classrooms are now both owned by the Cooperative and rented from member districts. The request is based on a projected growth of the special student body which is foreseen to parallel similar growth of regular school districts, particularly in Crystal Lake, McHenry and Woodstock. Future planning is deemed necessary because SEDOM realizes that as classroom space becomes increasingly scarce, the availability of rental space from member districts is expected to become a critical allocation issue. At this time, District 15 provides one classroom to the cooperative. The district also provides the comprehensive special education programs required by state statutes. ; The board will consider the Jact that construction of four ^special education district- fawned classrooms would relieve the inconvenience, and long bus rides to other districts. Members will also view how transportation costs could be reduced. SEDOM informat ion discloses that McHenry District 15 as a cooperative member, has not provided a fair share of space to date. The problem of securing substitutes Vhen needed was .tarotitfit to the attention of the board. Because of difficulties experienced even this early in the year, Dr. Richard Farmer, superintendent, recommended that the stipend be increased from $25 to $30 for a full day. When there was no second to a motion by Dorothy Vldf to this effect, Dr. Farmer suggeited a compromise to a lower figure. More discussion was held before Gary Lock- wood suggested advertising for substitutes until an adequate list is secured. Members heard the good news that for the fourth con­ secutive year the Debt Service grant application was approved by the state's Capital Development board. The grant, approved Sept. 8, is in the amount of $71,601.77 and provides for the abatement of the Bond and Interest fund tax levy by about .08 cents. School districts with out­ standing bonded indebtedness incurred for., capital im­ provement between* Jan. 1, 1989, and Oct. 1, 1973, were eligible to make application. Gary Lockwood was named delegate and Dorothy Vick, alternate, to attend the annual convention of the Illinois Association of School Boards, to be held Saturday, Nov. 19, through Monday morning, Nov. 21, at the Palmer House in Chicago. One of the focal points of the convention will be the recently signed consolidated election law which provides that no elections may be held on any date other than those specified. Problems associated with the law will come up for discussion. Various forms were ap­ proved to be submitted to the Illinois Office of Education for particular projects, including vocational, bilingual and gifted education. All of the programs are planned for in the current 1977-78 budget. An approved personnel report included transactions since the most recent business meeting. Employed as assistant secretary at Junior high was Georgia Boyle. Aides were Barbara Anderson, Genevieve Devereaux, Karen Gunderson, Jean Kull, Mary Nemtusak, Judy Pederson, Nancy Williams, Kimberlee Kohn, Darlene Meyer and Linda Jeannette. Mark Ritchie was employed in the custodial area at Valley View, John Thompson and Jeiff Kroncke, both temporary custodians at Edgebrook and Aleta Gemmell in the cafeteria at the same school. Three bus drivers employed were JJnda Luerssen, Betty Kline and Terry Parejko. The resignation of Sandra Streeter as central office receptionist was accepted. Approval was given to a recommended "Reduction in Force" policy recommended by the board's Negotiating team. It resulted from ac­ tivities that recently produced the new professional negotiations agreement.
