"In the article, board member Henry Nell was quoted as saying that "the position of principal is not that important" and then recommended a reduction in the principals' wage range to be from $16,000 to $18,000. "With this kind of reasoning on the part of a board member, it is no wonder why so many school districts are ex­ periencing difficulties. It is high time that school board members be required to vtat}e some experience in the education field as ' a prerequisite to becoming a board member. "As a teacher (not from this area), I resent working for people who only dabble in making school policy as a sideline to their everyday jobs. "I have seen board members in other areas use their positions to vent their personal frustrations with teachers and for other school personnel. "As a parent, I would worry whether some school board members are there to grind personal axes or to educate your children in the best possible manner. "Prior to the next school board election, I would greatly encourage you, the parents, to really find out about the can­ didates. Attend meetings. Talk to them. Ask questions. Maybe you will then be able to avoid the problems experienced by District 15 at the beginning of this school year. "Holly Tucker "Teacher and McHenry Taxpayer" A three-year-old McHenry' boy was not seriously injured - luck again next year, boys.

Where people were not home when the interviewers called, they left the survey forms and asked that residents fill them out and put them in the mail. By Wednesday, Oct. 3, ap­ proximately 150 survey forms had been returned by mail. In all, 90 percent of the streets of the areas were surveyed, leaving 10 percent, approximately eighty-four streets yet to be covered. In order to complete the survey, 30 more teams of volunteers will make survey calls next Sunday afternoon, Oct. 7, beginning at 1 p.m. Volunteer secretaries are working every evening of this week to sort the returns, tabulate the results, and arrive at the statistics that are required. The committee ex­ pects to have final results by Oct. 12, when a full report should be ready. The Religious Preference Survey committee is planning a report meeting and ap­ preciation party at St. Patrick's church hall Sunday.
