Collins, (R) DeKalb, has introduced a series of bills in the State Senate which will be of aid and assistance to veterans. The bills provide that veterans may enroll in Class One Public Junior colleges without payment of tuition fees on the same bases as exists at all state controlled universities. Senator Collins said, "It is only fair to extend the same benefits to veterans at junior colleges as to those attending state universities." At the present time there are 65,000 students in Illinois attending junior colleges and by 1970 there will be approximately 80,000. Of these students, 4,000 are veterans who would' be entitled to free tuition fees should this legislation become law.

McHenry, 111. 815-385-1475 Drivers You've just about closed the deal for the new Zoomer 8 sport coupe you've been wanting, when your friendly auto salesmm says, "Before you sign the order, you should know that tests have shown this car to be unsafe under many normal driving conditions. "Its brakes are subject to severe 'fade' at h'.gh speeds," he goes on, "the power steering is extremely sensitive under slippery-road conditions, and the gas tank is liable to ' explode if another car strikes the Zoomer 8 from behind."1 Sound like a fantasy? M.iybe so, today; but a recent proposal from the Federal Highway administration may result in just such dialogs in the future. The proposal would require new cars to undergo safety News About Our Serrii >mm Airman Recruit Dan C. Strach, l.'SN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sigmund Strach of 3911 W. Kane, McHenry,, completed reserve recruit training at the Naval Air station, Glenview. The two-week accelerated course is designed for reservists beginning their active duty tour in the Navy.

Carried to an extreme, the government could also require manufacturers and their agents to make sure prospective buyers are aware of these test results, before they buy. Obviously there are a number of problems involved in implementing the proposal. Among these are the need for uniform testing so that the information that results would be meaningful; and there are hundreds of different models that would have to be tested with consideration given to many variable factors -- weight differences, tire sizes, horse- Dower, etq. Even with these problems, howe^pr, it is possible that such a testing and information •requirement could go a long way toward solving the many safety problems that have occurred in recent years with cars just 9ff the assembly lines. But until the whole thing is worked out, how about a sign on each" new car's, dashboard: " Caution: Driving This Car May Be Hazardous To Your Health." Under the published proposal as it stands right now, manufacturers would be required to make public information about their vehicles' braking performance, tire performance, vehicle side protection, illumination and glare of headlamps, field of vision, acceleration and passing ability, steering ration, vehiclepsrformance while towing trailers, and flammability of interior materials. Such information would be part of the new car manual and probably published by the government in other forms as well.

Political Corner ON ASSESSORS The - following letter was received this week and is printed, in part: "Dear Editor: "I have been informed that there was a recent article in your paper that mentioned our recent 11th Illinois Assessors Workshop. "As chairman of the Illinois Property Assessment institute which sponsors these workshops, I am in charge of setting up, organizing and operating these workshops. " The article, as I have been told, stated that Le^vis E. Belshaw, a candidate for assessor, was in attendance at this workshop, March 3-5 and by his ' attendance and participation he received, a diploma giving him the designation of CIAO (Certified Illinois Assessing Officer). If it were as simple as implied every assessor in Illinois would have this designation rather than just seventyone assessors in our state. "The by-laws of our institute state than an assessor must first pass the Basic and Advance session at the workshop, before being eligible to take the Master course, which when passed gives one the designation of CIAO. " At this time, no certificates have been awarded for any of the workshop sessions. They have just today gone to the printers. In checking I find that Mr. Belshaw did enroll in the Basic and Advance session and he took the examination, but he has not received any grade as yet. "If Mr. Belshaw receives a passing grade on these examinations he is then eligible to take the Master course and upon completion of this course, with a passing examination, as determined by the International Association of Assessing Of- Easter Sunday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. *2 00 Oak Park Hotel W.
