URGE TOTAL COMMITMENT TO 4-YEAR SCHOOL (Cpntinued'from page 1) to make and to accept those decisions that will ensure the same, or better, quality of education in the future. Some of the questions that are vital and should be answered with firmness, according to the report, are: What will be the base curriculum? Will it be the same at both schools? Will all facilities eventually be duplicated? Will there be bussing between campuses to solve some of these problems? Will there be one interscholastic athletic program or two? The team report revealed the findings of a community satisfied with the academic, athletic and activity program that exists. It further spoke well of organization, administration and teaching staff. "McHenry high schools have a curriculum that is extensive and sound, generally of a high caliber", the report concluded. Jim Blum, who served as the North Central Steering committee chairperson, provided the board with an overview of the report. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) are willing to take the chance. Con games are on the rise during inflation and appear in many forms. In mail fraud alone over 62 types are routinely investigated by the Fraud division of the U.S. Postal Service. The experts tell us there are four key points to remember when confronted by temptation. Be suspicious of something for nothing; don't sign before reading the small print; don't discuss finances with strangers and never withdraw money at their request; and if you think you've been swindled, do report details to the proper authorities. Remembering what Barnum said may help. His observation brings a chuckle -- unless individually we happen to be the victim.

Originally released by World Wide Pictures in commercial theatres, the film is now one hour in length in preparation for its eventual presentation as a television special. No Longer Alone traces the life of an English actress, Joan Winmill Brown. Though she skyrocketed to fame on the British stage, her life was marked by a frantic grasp for personal fulfillment and love. Tor­ mented by a past she was unable to forget, she suc­ cumbed to a series of ner­ vous breakdowns, and at one point, attempted to take her own life. In her ultimte moment of despair, Joan was invited by a "chance" phone call to attend a Billy Graham crusade. It was here that she, first discovered her worth as an individual and began her long struggle to piece her shattered life back together. Those who have followed Billy Graham's ministry will be interested to know that Dr. Graham appears in the film in some of the footage of his 1954 London crusade, and also in the introduction and conclusion to the film, photographed recently for this special version. According to William F. Brown, president of World Wide Pictures, No Longer Alone was presented with the "Award of Excellence" from the Film Advisory a entine 2 Bonus Extra's FREE *Genie Automatic Garage Door Opener (Installation excluded) *AM/FM Digital Clock Radio Offer good February 14,15,16 and 17 with garage purchase.

I thought it was about a 40 year old who said. "Of course I remem­ ber how to roller skate." Rescue '50' Success, Car^Qaravan Replaces No. I Benefit Ride Plan With "too little winter" blamed, an alternate plan was used to accomplish the running of the fifth annual board of Hollywood, as well as the "Angel" award from Religion in Media in America, as the outstanding religion film of the year.

Disappointed at the still thin snow accumulation which made trail conditions poor for such a large group of machines, the dedicated snowmobile club members gathered at the McHenry American Legion grounds. Determined to keep their, commitment to the rescue squads, a caravan of cars and trailers of snowmobiles, trucks, vans and rescue squad vehicles were formed. Led by McHenry County Sheriff Sgt. Ed McFadden, they paraded through downtown McHenry, then north on Rt. 31 to Richmond and made a pit stop at the American Legion post in Genoa City to recognize the participation of the Rich­ mond-Spring Grove area snowmobilers and rescue squads. Then the caravan travelled west on Rt. 173 to Hebron to represent that area, and another short pit stop. The one-fourth mile long line of vehicles returned to McHenry's Legion post for refreshments at mid- afternoon. Although the month's delay of RESCUE '50' and lack of sufficient snow reduced the 'number of snowmobiles and vehicles that participated, about 70 - 80 percent of the pledged money was turned in. The final amount when all is collected is expected to be very close to the goal of $10,000 which will be split among the various rescue squads. The final figures will be published at a later date, and the presentation of all funds will be made to the squads March 9.
