Physical Therapy Center Closed June 25 To July 19 The McHenry county Physical Therapy center at Clay street school, Woodstock, will be closed from June 25 through July 19 wdape Mrs. Eleanor Jorgenson, therapist, is in California taking additional training for her work. The Physical The apy center is made possible th'ough Easter Seal funds and is used both by adults and children who are re- I ferred to the center by their I physicians. The summer speeclh j clinic, another Easter Seal pro- ; ject, opens thjs week and wit j continue through July. The clink! 1 is also held at Clay street school 1 Through the medium of your press I would like to call the attention of all citizens of McHenry county to certain questions that odr Board of Supervisors would do well to consider: 1. Since there is much discussion about how to care for leisure time of our young people, I would suggest that whenever a subdivision is contemplated for development, the Board of Supervisors should not approve the plat unless one or more parcels of land are set aside for playgrounds, centrally located, Playgrounds are, of course, only one item in many that could be suggested to take care of our youth's spare time. I shall suggest others in a future article. 2. The Board of Supervisors would do well in insisting upon some sort of paved roads in all new sjibdivisions being developed, especially in unincorporated areas. In these areas. Property Owners' associations have to take over maintenance? of roads, often causing extra expense, bitter discussions, .headaches and heartaches. If companies developing subdivisions put in paved roads the extra expense to them is easily made up by" an increase in the price of lots. A paved road is an attraction to buyers. 3. The county building code should be amended and strengthened so that conditions prevailing in a certain subdivision will not occur again. Health and fire hazaids must be considered. Unless building codes are modified there is some danger that "slum" areas may develop, which, in turn, would have ft tendency,-t© destroy the beauties and value of adjdlning well-kept communities. Note; You who are reading this article and agree with its sentiments, sTiduld contact your Supervisor and suggest ehe give serious consideration to these items. The Wonder Lake syndicate deserves the thanks of our citizens since they donated a parcel of land in Indian Ridge subdivision for recreational purposes. Thanks are also due to Dr., Ruggero for^ his activities in a certain, almost tragic condition founG some time agd. The Board of Supervisors should give serious consideration to Dr. Ruggero's suggestion about the advisability of having a county health department. Perhaps We grownups should adopt the' gram of the 4-H clubs. Wm. T. Born Rt. 4, McHenry, 111. ATTORNEY GENERA^ WINS VICTORY IN TRUCK LAW CASE Attorney General Latham Castle has announced winning of a double-barreled victory in the Illinois overweight truck law case before the United States Supreme Court. -Castle received a wire from Harold B. Willey, clerk of the court, stating that the court had granted a writ of certiorari for a review of the case upon the point asked by Attorney General Castle but had dismissed appeal for a review filed by the Hayes Freight Lines, Inc., defendant in the case, for "want of a substantial federal question." The case originated in Marion county circuit court which upheld validity of the overweight truck act. The Hayes company sought to enjoin the state from enforcing provisions of the overweight act. Under this act, courts can find truck operators guilty of being habitual violators for ten or more overloading infractions and bar them from the highways for ninety days. Subsequent violations could bring about a year's suspension. The Hayes company appealed to the Illinois Supreme Court, which upheld validity of the act, as it applied to intrastate but not as to interstate truck operations. A re-hearing was granted and the Illinois court affirmed its earlier judgement. Attorney General Castle and the Hayes company both asked the United | States Supreme Court to ****** the case, Castle seeking * w#lew of the interstate operation question and the Hayesh company of > the intrastate operation decision. J 'The decision of the United i States Supreme Court to review . the point banning enforcement of j the overweight truck act against interstate truck operations in j Illinois and its refusal to review ! the act's application to intraj state operations is a great vic- | tory for my office," Attorney General Castle said. "As the case j stands today, Illinois has only ' half-control over overweight truck operations on the state 1 highways. We confidently hope Chat the Supreme Court will the statfc full control over operations." will be open on Mtffidays Throughout The Summer ; iHTITI1111M III 111MI'll Mil I Mill III 11111 IWI'I IT!
