PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 6, 1975 PAGE 14 MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) it destroyed the courts in the name of school enlargement and progress. The faces and very special incidents associated with old friends and co-workers are memories that return as im­ portant parts of the past. So many there are and each one fills a special niche to remain forever. As time passes, the im­ portance of family becomes more and more apparent Arriving home after school to find a mother waiting to hear our troubles was something we always accepted as routine. And realizing that Dad was taking his part in the business and civic life of the community was taken for granted. Only as we grow older do they stand out as important influences at a time when their strengths were needed. We could not possibly con­ clude our personal memories without a thought to our fledgling years with the newspaper and the many years that followed. And so it is with reluctance that we relinquish these thoughts for another time and place as we go about the task of starting a second century with the Plaindealer We are proud of McHenry as our home town. It is something we remember each week in reminding ourself of a duty to a community that has served us well. That duty is striving to bring to readers of the Plain- dealer the best newspaper^we are able to produce.

Jacobsen, 23, of Abbey Hill drive, Fontana, Wis., was killed when his plane went down in a clearing bet­ ween two cornfields located a mile from the nearest home. The accident occurred five miles northeast of Harvard, a half mile south of the Wisconsin state line. The Sheriff's office was alerted to the crash at 4:46 p.m. Monday afternoon. Six county units were joined by four Harvard fire trucks, two rescue squads and two state units. Planes from Dacy and Gait airports entered the search and located the wreckage by air. The pilot was declared dead at the scene by Deputy Coroner B. Adams. His body was pinned in the wreckage and it was necessary for the Harvard rescue squad to cut the pilot free. Later, authorities learned that Jacobsen was a student pilot at Lakeland Airsport, Inc., Lake Lawn Lodge, Wis. He had left the lodge at 3 o'clock on a solo training flight. When he failed to return by 4, the field tried to make radio contact but was unsuccessful. Witnesses said Jacobsen appeared to have been engaged in aerobatics maneuvers just prior to the crash. They heard the motor stall and saw the plane npsedive but none were close enough to observe the actual crash. McHenry hospital has been accredited for the maximum two-year period by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals, according to LeBoy E. Olsen, president of the hospital's board of direc­ tors. This professional ac­ creditation, which covers 1975- 77, was awarded to McHenry hospital as the result of an on- site survey made recently by field representatives of the ;r / Joint Commission's Hospital it Accreditation program. The JCAH accreditation at­ tests to the fact that McHenry hospital has chosen to operate according to standards set by the JCAH and that it has, in tiie main, met these standards. The JCAH standards are published in its Accreditation Manual for Hospitals and set forth optimal achievable goals of excellence against which a, facility can measure itself and can be measured by the Joint commission's survey. McHenry hospital is one of about 5,300 general hospitals throughout the country that have earned accreditations of varying duration. There are about 7,400 hospitals in the United States. ^"We take pride in this two- year accreditation. It is a recognition of our continued dedication and achievement," said Olsen. "We want to thank our medical-dental staff, our administrative staff, and all personnel, for their efforts and cooperation in helping the McHenry hospital to maintain its accreditation status. "It is only through the efforts of each dedicated staff member ,:and employee ^that McHenry Hospital can continue to provide high quality patient care." The Joint commission's accreditation surveys are voluntary. It is not legally necessary for a hospital to be accredited, but health care facilities seek accreditation because it represents a validation of quality that is higher than governmental licensure alone. « The chief aim of the hospital Accreditation program is to help hospitals in their pursuit of excellence, thereby helping to provide a higher quality of care to patients. The program also seeks to recognize, and to identify for the public, those facilities which meet JCAH standards. The Joint commission began in 1918 under the auspices of the American College of Surgeons. It was incorporated in 1951 with the support of its present member organizations: the American College of Surgeons, the American College of Physicians, the American Hospital Association, and the American Medical Association. JCAH is a Chicago-based, non­ governmental, not-for-profit organization. for Reg. 2 for 5.58 Style P-352, smooth tricot Seam-Free cups, fiberfill contoured. Plunge front. Stretch sides, back, straps.

Kirk, directo.- of the Illinois Department of Local Government Affairs, has an­ nounced the awarding of 1976 planning grants to municipalities and counties under HUD's Section 701 ^CtHnpreJiensive Planning Assistance program. In awarding grants in the Chicago Metropolitian area, the Department in conjunction •with the Northeastern Illinois Planning commission en­ courages cooperative planning among local governments. "Neighboring communities often have many of the same problems, needs and con­ cerns," said Kirk. "It's better for all concerned if com­ munities can share the plan­ ning effort and get together on the answers to their common problems." Kirk pointed out that previous "701" supported planning had resulted in dramatic cost savings to municipalities and counties in problem areas such as tran- s p o r t a t i o n , e c o n o m i c development, land use and public services. Communities in the Chicago area receiving "701" grants include $10,000to the Lake and McHenry Council of Govern­ ments to collect and update basic planning data and to conduct a land use survey and analysis; also $32,000 to the McHenry County Regional ' Planning commission to provide planning assistance to municipalities within the county and to review the county Land Use plan.

DIVORCE IN ILLINOIS Part II Once grounds for divorce have been established or proven by the plaintiff, and the defendant has failed to or been unsuccessful in defending against them, a divorce is granted. The other basic consideration in divorce proceedings^ is^jyhich of the parties, in marriages with children, is to have custody of the children, and as far as property, such as a home and savings account is concerned, how they are to be distributed. In making a determination as to which parent is to have care and custody of the minor children, the Court takes into consideration certain factors such as the age and sex of the child or children, which parent can best accommodate the children's needs and generally which parent is best suited to care for the children Fven though a parent might not win custody of the children, that parent will be granted the right of visitation. Visitation is usually arranged to ac­ commodate as best it can, the schedules of both parents and the chidlren. Again, the best interest of the children is the prime factor taken into ac­ count. A mother is not granted custody solely because she is the mother. In most cases, she is because she has more time to devote to the children and is generally best able to care for them, at least at early ages. It is becoming more frequent that older boys be placed in the custodial care of their fathers. Again, the reason being that it may be best for a particular child. Child support is calculated on the financial needs of the children, the needs of the custodial parents as to their care and maintenance and the ability of the other parent to contribute. The parent paying support for the children receives consideration so that the parent is allowed to meet his or her own living expenses. Support is obligatory until a child reaches majority (which is now 18 years in Illinois), becomes emancipated and may sometimes extend beyond these times, if a child has special health, educational needs, or the like. Following articles in this series will consider alimony and property settlements. SPRINKLING RULES The city is enforcing a lawn and garden sprinkling program until notice that the ban is lifted.
