But they slip quietly into the room and out of it in the same way, so have your questions ready. They seem to expect criticism (which they get), and are surprised by ah unexpected bit of praise (which is seldom theirs). Most of them seem to get all the satisfaction they need out of seeing their patients well enough to go home. And isn't that what all of us want! KAF WIELD KNIFE AT SLEEPING SENIOR (Continued from page 1) curly black hair and a mustache wearing a plaid shirt and blue jeans. The other had dark hair and wore a tan jacket and jeans. Nancy J. Leuth, 20, of 4506 Garden Quarter, McHenry, was arrested by McHenry police and charged with theft under $150. Ms. Leuth was arrested for shoplifting at Hornsby's last Tuesday. The Sheriff's police are investigating a burglary at the home of Sam Bonovich, 312 Country Club, McHenry, last Saturday. The thief ransacked the home and stole a steel strongbox containing an­ tique jewelry and a variety of silver dollars. A gallon bottle of quarters, two rifles, a shotgun, two cameras and a television set were also taken. George Johnson, of 427 Draper road, McHenry, reported the theft of a television set and two collector plates from his home last Monday. A silver service, a tape player and about $60 were taken from the home of Roy Williamson, at 6315 Greenwood, Ringwood. Esther Sturm, of 4811 E. Lake Shore drive, Wonder Lake, called the police when she found someone had stolen a boat from the ^property. The boat was later found sunk near neigh­ boring property, the thief having {Hilled the drain plug. Rex Morelock, 5109 W. Shore drive, McHenry, reported to Sheriffs police that while his car was parked at Crescent Bay Landing, 3309 Chapel Hill road, McHenry, someone stole a toolbox and two wallets, containing an estimated $70 from the vehicle. » . . • ivLuliil mainci, ui jws Lcuella, McHenry, reported the theft of two boat trailer tires and two sleeping bags from his van Sunday mor­ ning. McHenry police were called when someone broke into a car belonging to Dominic J. Knitter, of 5115 W. East lane, McHenry, and stole a tape player and two speakers. Patrick Clements, of 906 River terrace, McHenry, called the police when he found that someone had stolen three bicycles from the garage A boat was taken from the summer home of Keith Thompson, Elgin, last week. VOTE $10 MILLION GRADE SCHOOL BUDGET (Continued from page 1) Goering noted that the final eligibility decision is left with IDOT. District 15 residents with questions about the new program should contact Goering at 385-6622. The board voted unanimously to accept the resignations of five staff members - Cindy Arodt, Deborah Vitiritti, Renee Perlish, Susan Hohmann and Kathleen Shea. All five asked to be released from their contracts. Mary Leight asked for, and received* an extended maternity leave. Cheryl Toalson, William Scasny and Jody Cruse were re-hired by the district and Sharon Kottke, Betty Kline and Nancy Farwell were hired as bus drivers. District 15 superintendent, Dr. Richard Farmer, told the board he had talked to City Park Director Peter Merkel about using school buildings and facilities for indoor classes during the winter months. The board was concerned with having adequate custodial staff present to clean and secure the buildings and with precluding groups that had traditionally used the buildings for free, like the Girl Scouts and a square dancing group. Board members noted the cuts in the number of night custodial people who would be on hand to lock the buildings and set heating or air conditioning controls. "We don't have the custodial staff to do it but with their (City of McHenry) help, we might be able to do it," Dr. Farmer commented. According to the board, the essential thing was to have someone responsible for opening and closing the buildings. Board president Gary Lockwood asked if the Park department would make allowances for groups that had traditionally used the school buildings during the winter months. Dr. Farmer assured him that "the freebies would still get their freebies." CITY COUNCIL RELUCTANT ON COOPERATION (Continued from page 1) completion of facility planning. Stanek asked if the Shores was signing a similar letter, Sundin noted that the Shores is the applicant since McHenry was not willing to be stuck with the dictates that goes with the grant application. Sundin contradicted his earlier statement and said that the Shores would not plan the treatment plant, only the collector system. But the Shores is willing to accommoda te the restrictions and do the planning with McHenry to mutually develop the plant. Sundin said he estimated that it would take about 90 days for the grant to be approved* although it had not been submitted yet because it needed McHenry's letter and NIPC endorsement. Alderman Michael Wieser questioned whether both communities (McHenry and the Shores) were properly served by being represented by one firm (Baxter and Woodman). He didn't believe the city should be in a situation where consultants from a single firm represented both parties. Stanek explained that the municipalities and their engineers had been forced together by the EPA. They can no longer build (disposal) plants helter skelter. The federal and state government have mandated that they find the most effective way to serve whole areas. Stanek said he wanted to avoid any future misunderstandings and so he still has questions about the letter and planning project. For instance, Stanek noted, the Shores wants 75 - 25 percent grant funding on the collector system and treatment plant. What he asked, would happen if McHenry wanted Register Now For Fall Enrollment _ FANTASY FARM CHILD CARE •LOWEST RATES •HOT LUNCHES •STATE LICENSED *INDOOR & OUTDOOR QUALIFIED TEACHERS PLAY AREAS ALSO AVAILABLE AFTER SCHOOL CARE FOR CHILDREN UP TO 10 YRS. Call Today 385-2499 Ag*t 2-6 Hours: 6:45 to 5:30 PM to go ahead and build the plant with money on hand and the Shores couldn't immediately come up with all of their share? Alderman Jack Pepping insisted that would be a matter of timing. He said that planning would resolve this. Stanek further noted that the Shores proposal is not consistent with the 208 Water plan which in a letter had said that McHenry must take the lead in planning for the facility. Narusis, after expressing his low opinion of the USEPA citing Cary's experience with federal imposed barium standards, cautioned that "cooperation is a mysterious word" with no legal meaning, a possible club to be used by the EPA. It could interfere with the city's judgment and affect policy decisions. Narusis warned that the proposed treatment plant could be owned by McHenry Shores - that any future negotiations by McHenry for annexation of new subdivisions could be subordinated by what the adjoining town charged against operating and capitalizing costs. For instance large portions of tap on fees in a new subdivision of McHenry could go to the Shores as part of the capital development costs of the new facility. In finance, revenue bonds depend on rates, and decisions by the Shores would affect what the city charges all its users, Narusis continued. . Pepping again noted that these factors will be addressed in the planning. Narusis said "Then let's get it in writing. The letter should not commit us to not developing in the area (potentially to be served by the sewer) if no agreement is reached with McHenry Shores." Pepping said, "I think its foolish at this time to try to block the planning process. There's no commitment by the letter beyond that." Stanek added, "I would go for an innocuous letter to let the planning start." David Grimes, village president of McHenry Shores, said he would suggest two individual plants on the same site. He conceded there were some problems with EPA interference, but they will insist that the two villages work together. He added, "We (McHenry Shores) don't have a system and so have nothing to lose so we can take advantage of the grant system. "But it also benefits you." Grimes concluded, "If the plan is finished, then you do what you want and we do what we want." In other business the Council approved billing from McHenry Lakes Estates for oversizing of water and sewer installations including lift stations that would benefit other users such as Falcon north of the city. Stanek said they would credit the $39,951.51 charged against the $40,000 donation due to be received from the developers for this purpose. The aldermen noted that the amount to be charged to Youth Hurt As Car Hits Cycle PAGE 17 - PLA1NDFALF.R. FRIDAY. AUGUST 18, II A car-bicycle collision at the intersection of Front and Main streets last week left the rider with minor injuries and a citation for improper lane usage. Riding the bicycle, Keith A. Belzer, of 1716 Meadow, McHenry, was heading north on Front street in the wrong lane of traffic when an auto turned south from Main street. The driver of the auto, Patrick J. Lamz, of 4216 South street, McHenry, told police he was half-way through his turn when he saw the bicyclist and the collision occurred. Belzer said he was riding north on the left side of the street (the southbound lane) when a car turned the corner and rammed him. Belzer was treated and released from McHenry hospital. Shirley A. Cristy, of 6507 Barnard Mill road, Wonder Lake, had just turned into a private driveway when an El Camino type vehicle backed into her car. When she confronted the driver of the other car, he left westbound on McCullom Lake road. The accident occurred at 7:22 p.m. Monday. Leatherleaf Bog Walk A guided nature walk will be conducted at Leatherleaf Bog in Moraine Hills State park at 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 16. Located south of McHenry on River road, Moraine Hills State park holds a variety of wetland areas, including Leatherleaf bog, one of only nine bogs left in Illinois. Bogs are unique natural systems characterized by acid water conditions and plants that are especially adapted to such conditions. Open to the public, the walk will be led by Chris Gruber, a teacher from Crystal Lake and a graduate student in environmental interpretation at Nor­ theastern Illinois university. Those participating are urged to wear tennis shoes due to the moisture. Stolen Boat Found In Field Like a fish out of water, Richard Stilling, of 4302 Ringwood road, McHenry, called the McHenry County Sheriffs police when he discovered that someone had left a boat in his hayfield. The boat, which had been reported stolen to the Lake County Sheriff's depart­ ment, was stripped of all instruments and the motor. McHenry police arrested Mark A. Love, 38, of 4505 Ramble road, McHenry, early Wednesday morning and charged him with battery. According to police, Love struck his daughter. Bond was set at $1,000. Two McHenry area youths face liquor violation charges after police responded to a report of several people - shouting and throwing beer bottles from a car in the Wonder Lake area. Gary Maggi, 17, of 2404 W. Riverside, McHenry, was charged with unlawful possession of liquor and having open liquor in a Falcon was based on a fixed dollar amount instead of a certain percentage of actual costs. Since the original estimate which was entered in the agreement was made by engineers some time ago, the city wound up somewhat short on this subdivision share. However, Stanek added, there were other users further north that would also be benefitted and more recovery could be made. VILLAGE MARKET < X 4405 E. WONDER LAKE RD.

Route 120 last Friday to treat "a very intoxicated man" who had passed out. Michael Lorch, 26, 2009 W. Route 120, McHenry, was taken to McHenry hospital. A report of a man shooting a rifle last week resulted in the arrest of Mark Albert, 27, 7514 Oak, Wonder Lake, for possession of a firearm without a firearm owner identification (FOI) card. , Kirby L. Wallace, 20, of Elgin, was arrested by McHenry police for littering after he threw a smoke bomb at the Intersection of Court and Elm streets last Sunday. McHenry police were called to a disturbance at 3920 Waukegan last week and found two people having an argument. Police said Mary Santi, of 3920 Waukegan, McHenry, and Michael Zeller, of 702 S. Route 31, McHenry, were arguing and when she tried to leSve the area, Zeller started after her with closed fists. After fighting with police and using loud and abusive language, Zeller was sub­ dued and charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. In the initial report, Zeller's address was in­ correctly reported as being More than $34 million earmarked for veterans' education payments remains untouched and Administrator of Veterans Affairs Max Cleland wants the eligible group of armed forces veterans to lay claim. The money has accrued to some 16,000 veterans who contributed to the Post Vietnam Era Educational Assistance program, or VEAP, but have yet to enroll in school or begin a program of training, according to Cleland. "Once a veteran starts school," Cleland said, "VA starts paying benefits." He said the veteran triples the money paid into the program by enrolling in school. VA adds $2 for each dollar an individual pays into the program while on active military duty. The increase is reflected in each of the veteran-student's monthly education checks. If the veteran asks for a refund in place of education checks, he receives only what he ^>aid into the plan. "A 3 to 1 return on their money is just one of the reasons for veterans to continue their education," Cleland said. Some 800 veterans are currently training under VEAP. The program suc­ ceeded the GI Bill in January, 1977. To receive this educational assistance, an eligible veteran may enroll in school, college, take flight training, or correspondence courses. Created by Congress in 1976, VEAP is a voluntary plan open to military members who entered the service for the first time after Dec. 31, 1976. Those who elect to participate 3920 Waukegan road. The correct address is 702 S. Route 31, McHenry. contribute by monthly allotments from their military pay. Deductions may be between $50 and $75. More than 208,000 active duty personnel had con­ tributed to it through February 1980. Educational payments can be made to participants on active duty after they complete the first obligated period of service. After separation, a veteran with at least 181 days of service may be eligible. A veteran with a service connected disability may be able to waive that period. Participants who elect to have the maximum allot- Wonder Lake ment, $75 per month, deducted from their pay during a three-year enlistment may receive $8,100 in educational benefits - $2,700 individual con­ tribution plus $5,400 added by"VA. The $8,100 will be paid in 36 installments of $225 for each month of full- time college or vocational- technical school completed. Total benefits can exceed $8,100 since some military services give education bonuses from $2,000 to $9,000 for certain enlistment op­ tions. Toll-free lines to VA regional offices in all 50 states are available for information on the program. Pros-Cons Of Incorporation At least three local municipal mayors and presidents are expected to be present when the pros and cons of organizing Wonder Lake into a village are discussed. According to Peter Helios of Deep Springs No. 1 subdivision, the meeting will be held at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 8, at Christ the King church, Wonder Lake. Local government leaders invited to attend are Mayor Joseph Stanek of McHenry, Bull Valley President William Kimball and Mc­ Cullom Lake President Kurt Weisenberger. Known to be in favor of the incorporation is President James Rachel of the Village of Wonder Lake, formerly Sunrise Ridge village. He, too, is expected to be present to state his case. Helios, who called the meeting, said the Deep Springs subdivision board is against the incorporation until hearing all the facts. Residents of all sub­ divisions in Wonder Lake are urged to attend and become acquainted with the arguments for and against the issue.
