PG. 12 - PLA1NDEALER - WED. MARCH 26, 1969 here and there in BUSINESS mmnnxsm 81n2u2m33i3i vw DISCUSS BANK BILL r- Marion G. Hocker (left) 1114 West Bay road, McHenry, vice-president and director of Gary-Wheaton bank, Wheaton, discusses Group Banking Bill with Senator Karl Berning (right). Also in the picture is Richard E. Nylander, president of Lake Villa Trust & Savings bank, Lake Villa. Sen. William G. Horsley (RSpringfield) introduced legislation March 19 which is reported to permit small and medium sized banks throughout Illinois to provide better services to their communities. The bill, which has the support of many bankers throughout the state, is known as the "Bill for Better Banking in Illinois". It would repeal the Bank Holding company Act of 1957 and permit group banking by allowing banking companies to Musin9 and Meanderin (Continued from page 1) length of the day is exactly equal to the length of the night. (Without a twenty-four-hour vigil, we can only take their word for it). The same informative source *old us last Feb. 28 that March can be both wintry and springlike. (They must have had a crystal ball looking into the future). The statement also was made that many animals and plants awaken during March, sap flows in the trees and green buds begin to appear. The first pussy willows and wild flowers can be found in the woods. (That last one we'll have to check). The same expert says most frogs lay their eggs in March (we didn't know that), hibernating animals leave their winter sleeping places (and they might have added that many have now gone to their eternal rest after wandering onto the highway). But best of all, those cheery, plump robins didn't fail us -- or the experts -- they arrived right on schedule to make the world a happier place! KAF STATE REPORTS EVALUATION OF RESERVOIR SITE (Continued from page 1) able from a geologic standpoint and suggest advantages and disadvantages of the others. His report describes the surface and subsurface earth materials at each location and possible design and engineering problems. It also indicates the availability of materials satisfactory for dam building.

Illinois, which ranks third in personal income, has a rigid, single unit banking structure that is comparable only to two other states: Kansas, which is twenty-fifth in personal income and West Virginia, which is thirty-second. Of the 1,050 banks in Illinois, 465 have assets under $5,000,000. This legislation is reported designed to enable these banks and others to compete more effectively with larger banks and provide better customer service through increased competition. The legislation is strongly supported by the Association for Full Service Group Banking, an organization of small and medium sized banks throughout Illinois. The association is dedicated to helping small banks improve their services and maintain independence at the same time. Thomas V. Markle,president of the Beverly Bank of Chicago and director of the association, pointed out that group banking is extremely different from branch banking. " Group banking provides for autonomous units controlled by local presidents and local boards of directors" said Markle. " It is a cooperative movement where small banks can join together without losing their identity or autonomy".
