VOTE BOND SALE FOR LIFE SAFETY WORK (Continued from page 1) the program, Steve Paluch, told the board that they may spread out the construction time over two years because last year's house has not yet been sold. Specifications for bidding can be obtained at the school administration office, Andreas reported. The board also learned that because of problems with meeting subdivision and community standards, plans for the new house were to be modified with less emphasis on energy efficient facilities and more on passive solar methods. These revisions would meet construction and appearance criticisms raised by the subdivision people and the Sunnyside officials, the board was told. One modification included is use of 6- inch studs on the outside walls to permit installation of heavier insulation. The board still did not resolve a protest by parents of junior high band students over transportation costs. Twenty parents were present at the meeting Aug. 26 to question the users' fee for the buses for carrying the band students to early practice sessions. The parents argued that they had so much money invested in the children's instruments that they felt it was unfair in addition to charge for transportation. The board was reminded that originally the school district did not furnish transportation for band members but later agreed to bus the children to practice and events. With budget restrictions this year, the board had hoped to offset bus expense by charging $25 per year for each band member. The parents pointed out the transportation being furnished to participants in athletic events and asked, "Is that fair?" The board deferred acting on the protest untiLthey i fr ROAD IMPROVEMENT APPROVED BY VILLAGE BOARD (Continued from pogo 1) on 12 lights, you'll still have $200 left for other needs." Trustee John Sorenson voted in favor of the lighting, but cast the sole dissenting vote on the traffic control signs. He said village residents " near the lake will nave to go th four stop signs in order to get out of village. Trustee Scott Axelson expressed support for both measures, but charged lice are concerned only with sp had more information from the bddg< on Thompson road while village children playing on side streets face the risk of injury from speeders. "We caught five speeders on village side streets on speeding violations recently," said Racnel. He noted that speeders were being caught by an unmarked car. People were travelling 45 mph before the side streets were posted with 25 mph speed limit signs, but now they're travelling 65 mph with the new speed They asked the parent group to put a ff8"*"?"® P" counterproposal in _writing and the «1JJ.. Zenuan salid administration would look at it. The administration also reported that they were aiming for a better hot lunch program since the pupil participation tor this school year has not been too good. Because of reduced federal aid for the hot lunch program, prices were raised and, Andreas noted, more sack lunches were appearing. The board reminded parents that it is their intention for the district not to subsidize the lunch program if it continues to lose money. Andreas said the trend could change and then they will look at the lunch situation again. The administration also advised the board they were looking at a new policy in connection with minimum competency testing involved, especially in reading and math necessary to permit graduation. One critical consideration concerns the minimum standard for special education students, and whether they should graduate. The new lights, once ordered, should take six weeks to be delivered, he added. Previously, Bender had been receiving $50 a month to store the village police car at his home in Crystal Lake. Since Officer Steve Young now resides in Wonder Lake, village trustees agreed the squad car should remain in the village and Young should be given the $50 a month to store the car. However, Bender will receive $50 a month for maintaining a police department office and storing department records in his home since Wonder Lake has no village hall.

And when the bus isn't taking them here and there, they are planting trees or garden plants. Or they are occupying their time in ways that only one so devoted could devise for fellow humans for whom accomplishment means a greater effort and devotion. Mrs. Gacek recently conducted a "Because You're Special" pageant to give a lift to the young folks she serves. More than 400 parents turned out for the occasion, and Governor Thompson sent a telegram of congratulations. Last June she received not-for-profit status for her teen club. And non-profit it is, requiring the outlay of large amounts of her own money. When your heart is big, it's hard to say "no" to the youngsters. There was the time just recently when they had worked for a local benefit and then learned that the suppers they thought were forthcoming would not be available. To disappoint her "friends" was unthinkable, so Mrs. Gacek reached deep into her pockets to fill their hungry stomachs. But Mrs. Gacek has learned that friends do not let you down. During the Jerry Lewis telethon they collected $864 in just a few hours. The walls on her teen club testify to their feeling for this lady who admits today to having only $62 in her bank account and gasoline bills for her bus still unpaid. "I'm not a professional, I just love these young people", she commented with a sincerety that was evident, "and I'm going to keep going as long as I can". KAF CITY COUNCIL NIPCA Directors To Be Named About 300 farm men and women will meet at the Harvard Moose Wednesday, Sept 23, at 7 p.m. for forty-eighth annual meeting of the Northeastern Illinois Production Credit association.

He is a director of the Johnsburg Community club. Hospital Anniversary Gala Saturday, Sept. 26, Crescent Bay Landing will be the site of McHenry hospital's gala siver anniversary celebration. The evening's festivities will not only herald this important milestone in regional health care, but benefit the many hospital-sponsored education programs. The hospital's Department of Education underwriters or sponsors several programs available to the public or to health care personnel throughout the area. Proceeds from benefits such as the dinner dance help to keep costs minimal for people interested in participating in the courses. Some or the programs, such as the twice-a-month CPR class, are free of charge. One of the special classes funded in part by the Education department, is the 15-week Comprehensive Coronary Care course that is geared to all professional nurses caring for patients in emergency rooms, intensive care units, and telemetry units. Courses such as this must meet stringent requirements for accreditation through medical associations, and McHenry hospital's instructors and program content are outstanding in their qualifications.

(The fire department is not under city jurisdiction, but is a separate taxing entity at the present time.) Alderman Ed Datz said the first step is to start charging for services through insurance coverage which most people have without realizing it. This could reduce the number of runs. Mayor Joseph Stanek reported that the city had received a letter from the rescue squad officers asking for guidance. It outlined difficulties with part time personnel and the high operation volume. Stanek urged the council to "study the alternatives and not to stumble into it (possible changes)." Superintendent of Public Works Richard Weber was authorized to pick up one student for part-time work in the utility department. He said only one remained in the pool made available by the high school in its work study program, and he could use him for 20 to 30 hours per week. Wieser registered surprise at the request saying, "I thought we had a freeze on hiring. Now the other departments are (will be) asking. If we need help we should hire a full time man and quit poppy-cocking around. Maybe we should check into all the departments (for their need and use of employees)." In other business the council: ...authorized a notice of incompleted facilities for the Falcon subdivision for protection of purchasers when the council learned that Falcon's letter of credit had expired. ...arranged to consider purchase of five new squad cars for the police department. ..heard the report of Chief George Pasanelli about statistics indicating reduced criminal activity in McHenry. ...agreed to give Mayor Stanek guidance on changes in annexation fees for commercial annexation. ...approved a recommendation from the Zoning Board of Appeals for a special use and ordinance for a privately owned recreation building at the Althoff property at 804 Mill street.

Police Find Stolen Steins CLARIFICATION Representatives of the Johnsburg Teachers organization clarified the 9.9 percent figure which was reported as "an average salary increase" at the school board meeting in the Sept. 2 issue of The McHenry Plaindealer. According to association spokesmen, the 9.9 percent figure reflects an approximate Increase in the Education budget and includes all fringe benefits - health insurance, retirement, etc. - and is not a 9.9 percent pay hike. They noted that there was a wide range of salary increases, with the more experienced teachers receiving a greater increase. McHenry County Sheriff's police have recovered a quantity of antique German beer steins, valued at more than $8,000, as a result of a search warrant executed earlier this week.
