MAY 11.1968 CUJLCEr i FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of May 4,1933) TTn/W- new business at the City /x council meeting the ordinance on man \ beverages was discussed. Mayor Doherty recommended $200 for all retailors and $150 for wholesalers. 'It was regularly moved and seconded that retail license for malt beverages be fixed at $200 and the wholesalers at $150. Barbian and Schaeffer voted against it, although the motion carried. The board is determined there will be no upstairs beer parlors and that the licenses shall be paid by May 15. The ordinance calls for a $50 bond. McHenry is observing daylight saving time this year for the first in several years as the result of the vote taken at the recent city election on April 18, in which the proposition for daylight saying time carried. ^ FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of May 6, 1943) Another fiscal year in the records of the City of McHenry has bowed out of the picture. Books were closed and the pages of a new year unfolded on May 1. Various branches of city offices have been especially busy the last few days as three meetings were held. Following the adjournment of the ^ annual meeting, the successful candidates for office, Alfred Tonyan, Edward J. Buss and Fred Ferwerda, recited and signed their official oaths of office. A few changes from the past year were noted. Winfield W. Hagberg was granted a license to operate in the location previously operated by Herman and Helen Kreutzer. Albert M. Budler did not apply for renewal of license to operate in connection with Palace Recreation. • TWENTY-FIVE YEARS A&> (Taken from the flies of May 8, 1958) It was "New Year's" for the city of Mctienry as uie City council wound up the old and rang in the new fiscal year at their annual meeting. Annual reports reflected a healthy financial position of the city in spite of heavy expenditures during the past year. It has been many years since the city has had to issue tax anticipation warrants to meet current expenses. An outstanding honor has been accorded a McHenry youth, one of only 1,000 in the entire country to be named a national merit scholar for 1958. He is Gordon Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard T. Ryden. Gordon is the only county student to be awarded the honor as the result of tests taken several months ago. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of May 2, 1973) With the first show last spring proving a tremendous success, the Greater McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce is planning its second annual Commerce and Industry, exhibition. Three persons are joining forces to put the finishing touches on the show Rick Lane, Ann Zeller and Ken Sh&idan. Ray McGee was singled out for a particular- "honor in a formal ceremony at the new courthouse. He was presented with the 1973 Liberty Bell award. The Fox river will remain closed until further notice due to the ex­ tremely high level of the water. Coach Ken Swanson's McHenry Warriors finally broke a 5 game losing streak when they defeated Lake Zurich 9 to 5. Tim Tonyan went the distance, giving up 2 hits, striking out 4 and issuing only 2 walks. • : wu ih W.f * *** *** HELPING PAWS ANIMAL WELFARE ASSOCIATION P.O. Box 205. Crystal lok*.

Dairy Princess Candidates Sought In McHenry County The United States Achievement academy has announced that Sherri Bruce, Cheryl Burkhardt, Laura Schratt, Kenneth Schoenig, Bernard Wharton, Cindy Swinford, Lisa Kelly and John Biederman have been named 1983 United States national award winners in Foreign Language. This award is a prestigious honor very few students attain. In fact, the academy recognizes less than 10 percent of all American high school students. These students attend Johnsburg high school and were nominated for this national award by Catherine Bethia, Spanish teacher at the high school. They will appear in the United States Achievement academy official yearbook, published nationally. The academy selects USAA winners upon the exclusive recommendation of teachers, coaches, counselors and other school sponsors and upon the Standards of Selection set forth by the academy. The criteria for selection are a student's academic peiv formance, interest and aptitude, leadership qualities, responsibility, enthusiasm, motivation to learn and improve, citizenship, attitude and cooperative spirit, dependability, and recommendation from a teacher or director. Current focus of the McHenry County Dairy Promotion council is to seek Dairy Princess candidates for the 1983 McHenry County Dairy Princess contest, Larry Harris, secretary, said this week. The annual dairy banquet is held in late June with the crowning of the new dairy princess the climatic moment of the month's quickened promotional efforts. Judy Borhart, Huntley, is the reigning Dairy Princess, and she has been making grocery store ap­ pearances during the past month to distribute coupons offering a savings on the purchase of a gallon of milk. Harris said entry forms for the 1983 Daify Princess contest are available KnW \ at the Farm Bureau building. Daughters of dairy farmers who live, or have lived, on a farm are eligible if they are between the ages of 17 and 25 and never married. Miss Borhart will represent McHenry county in the 1983 ADA of Illinois Dairy Princess contest in July.

The law makes driving easier by helping to keep vehicles movirig, especially during slow periods of the day when traffic is light. It is up to the driver making the turn to watch for pedestrians and other vehicles. The "Right turn on red" law has also un­ fortunately become one of our most abused traffic laws. Many motorists think the law allows them to slow down at a red light, take a quick look and dart into traffic. The law states that a right turn is permitted at a red light under certain conditions. Come to a full stop, look for traffic on the street you are entering, and yield the right of way to any traffic on that street and pedestrians in the adjacent crosswalk. Then proceed with obey TRAKMTOHt OLD COMPUTER. (OR VKO GAME). TRADE UP TO A REAL COMPUTER. THE COMMODORE 64. caution and make the right turn. Watch for and "No turn on red" at intersections where making a turn at a red light is prohibited or limited. Making a left turn after stopping at a red light is permitted from a , one-way street to a one­ way street going left.

'In the good old summertime', a few things to remember: have ypur dog checked early for heartworm, this blood test will also indicate if other problems exist; if your cat is allowed outside, consider a rabies shot ; daily grooming keeps animals cool. Remember that the inside of a car on an 85 degree day, with windows ajar, will reach 102 degrees in ten minutes. If your dog is kept outside, provide shade and plenty of fresh water, plus keep a watchful eye on your dog as there Have been reports of 'dognapping'. If your pet goes along on your vacation, make sure it has proper identification. All pet adoptions must beTvalidated by the signing of a "contract along with the adoption fee for all dogs and cats, which includes the cost of the spay or neuter surgery from a Vet of our choice.
