V \" \ V • Discuss Qualifications Of Con Con Delegates [ P Candidates for members of the coming constitutional con­ vention filed their petitions July 7 through July 11. The voters' first concern is about the kind of person who will represent them at Con Con when it meets in December. The delegate to the consti­ tutional convention faces a task which is almost unique in the modern history ' of Illinois: to help revise an outmoded state constitution at the request of the people who voted over­ whelmingly in November, 1969, to hold Con Con. These people know that the constitution needs an overhaul, and they must now assign the job by electing two convention members from each senatorial district. What are the characteristics of a good Con Con member? Is he someone special or un­ usual? Does he have or need specific abilities? Can we i- den&fy the characteristics which will make a good dele­ gate? A description of an able del­ egate can be developed. First, look at the convention body as a whole. To work well and to produce a document which will meet the needs of the people and win their approval, Con Con must represent the areas of the state and its major political and economic divisions. It must have both men and women, and it ought to have a wide range of age groups, including serious young people. Its members must be able to devote almost full time for about eight months to the Con Con meetings and com­ mittee sessions. Diligence and deliberate speed are require­ ments. The convention must be •new; BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS IN A PERMANENT GIFT! peed-A- Gift thorough in its research, de­ bates and decisions. All points of view must be sought and en­ couraged. Party rivalry must be avoided. The public must be ac­ tively involved in the procedure, and recommendations of the convention must be openly de,- bated, thoroughly explained and carefully justified. The pur­ poses of a constitution need to be understood so that the con­ vention can avoid squabbles over trifles and concentrate on the broad outlines of a simple, brief constitution. And Con Con must plan for an active c^m- - CLAIRE HOETTELS An extended illness ended in death for Mrs. Claire B. Hoet- tels, 63, of 2006 W.

OPERATE BREWERY MANY YEARS IN CITY OF McHENRY * According to the history book, McHenry County 1832-1968, McHenry had a prosperous brewery for many years. The beer making plant was built in 1868 by George Gribbler and was located at the intersec­ tion of Green and Pearl streets. In 1880, it was bought by Gott­ lieb Boley. This brewery was passed down to "Patsy" Boley who operated it at least up to the 1930's. Perhaps it is just as well that McHenry* s brewery didn't last through the depression. "Old McHenry" seems to be a funny name for a beer. MARGARETE BEHNKE WIESE Mrs. Margarete Behnke Wiese, 86, died July 5 in Con- over, Wis.
