In order to recognize this desire in young people, the McHenry County Sheriffs police is sponsoring a Law Enforcement Explorer Post. The chartered purpose of exploring is to provide career orientation and in­ formation to young adults in a specific field. Exploring is a segment of the Boy Scouts of America open to young men and women of high school age. Law Enforcement Explorer Posts, provide the career information for members by conducting classes in law enforcement subjects, holding discussions (with guest speakers) about various police and court facilities, as well as the McHenry County jail and McHenry County Coroner's office. Career orientation is provided through working with police officers in non-hazardous duties, and by public speaking engagements on behalf of the department and post. Membership in the post is limited to young men and women between the age& of 14-21. Those still in school must maintain a C or better grade point average. Parental permission is required and members are expected to provide themselves with a regulation uniform within the first 90 days of membership. Registration with the Boy Scouts of America costs each member $5 a year. Other equipment and training aids are provided by the post. If you have any questions about the Law Enforcement Explorer Post, contact Sergeant James Connelly at 338-2145. GATHERING OF THE EAGLES Since relatives were flying in from all parts of the United States to Salt Lake City, Mary Ruggero said her son Bill's wedding was definitely a "gathering of the eagles". Bill Ruggero and Grace Louise Ramos were united in marriage Sept. 18 in Salt Lake City in a beautiful outdoor ceremony. Bill and Grace met while attending the University of Utah. Bill has his degree in Biology, but since the field is not wide open at this time, he isiiow working toward a Geology degree. Profits from the airline definitely improved that weekend with relatives coming from Phoenix, Addison, presents Louisville, Ann Harbor, California, Iowa City, Denver, Chicago, and Wonder Lake. Both of Bill's grand­ mothers who are 82 and 88 years old, attended, along with his three brothers, Jim, Dr. Bob, and Tom, and his sisters, Louise, Nancy, Cynthia, Margaret, Lydia and Terry. Dr. and Mary Ruggero made it a week-long trip from Wednesday to Wednesday, but all the others stayed just for the weekend. DINNER-DANCE The Wonder Lake Lion's club will be holding a Halloween dinner-dance in Christ the King hall Saturday, Oct. 30, beginning at 6:30 p.m. The main concern of the Lion's club is sight and hearing loss in children so they try to provide help for needy families along these lines. Profits from the dinner- dance will, of course, further their cause. SPECIAL DAYS Today is the birthday of Bonnie Joseph of Wonder Woods, who will be celebrating with ho- husband Jeff and children Ken, Jeff, Amanda, and Nick., Sunday, Oct. 31, is Halloween, when all the little ghosts and goblins will be out. Please be extra careful while driving because little ones don't always think of oncoming cars when they are excited. Happy anniversary to Joe and Pat Sullivan of St. Francis Heights, who will be celebrating their special day on Nov. 3.

Captain Hugh S. McGinley, com­ mander of State Police District 15, in Oak Brook, stated, "With poor economic conditions and so many people out of work, we tried a program of letting the toll evader send the unpaid 30-cent toll through the mail instead of being arrested for toll evasion and receiving a $50 citation. So far in 1982, only 60 percent of the violators have been sending the un­ paid toll in through the mail. People probably don't realize that if we once again start to issue traffic, citations for toll evasion the arrest will go on their Illinois drivers record and the fine will be $50, or the equal to 166 times the unpaid toll." McGinley added, "I hope drivers will start to take more seriously the break they are getting by being issued a warning and the mail-in envelope."
