Lecture On Great Pyramid At County College Oct. 22 The public is invited to a lecture on The Great Pyramid of tirtzeh, Egypt on Wednesday, Oct. 22, at McHenry County college. Alex Wayne, an engineer who has studied the scien­ tific, historic and symbolic aspects of the Great Pyramid for many years, will be the speaker at the free presentation at 7:30 p.m. in the college lounge. Wayne's avocation has been an intensive study of the Pyramid which has puzzled archeologists and other scientists for cen­ turies. He believes that contrary to popular opinion the Pyramid was never intended as a tomb. He explains that the Egyptians carefully Helps sealed their tombs air-tight while the Pyramid has four fresh air channels to the outside. MCC's Student Ufe committee is sponsoring the lecture which will be titled "Update on the Great Pyramid of\Gizeh." For additional information telephone the students ac­ tivities office at the college, 455-3700 ext. 270. Sunnyside Area SECTION 2 - PAGE I - PLAINDEALER m. at the Johnsburg Junior WEDNESDAY.

IDAPP, a division of the Illinois State Scholarship Commission, has already purchased more than $10,000,000 worth of student loans from 465 Illinois len­ ders during 1980, according to Gary H. Rieman, Director of Program Services, and it is anticipated that the bond sale that closed Oct. 1 will enable IDAPP to purchase another $18,000,000 in student loans in the coming year. This year it is anticipated that Illinois lenders will make more than $340,000,000 available in loans to students. The purchase program was first created in 1977 through the Illinois Student Assistance Law. During its first year of operation in fiscal year 1978, IDAPP purchased $1.7 million worth of student loans, representing 636 student accounts. In 1979, it pur­ chased $7.6 million, totaling 3t030 different accounts. Based upon the Illinois Designated Account Pur­ chase program, lenders are increasingly responsive to the needs of Illinois residents for student loans. In returning to active par­ ticipation in the student loan program, one lender stated that, "...recent legislation has altered the situation citing the new Illinois State's General Funds Have Healthy Balances After the first three months of fiscal year 1981, the available balance in the State's general funds is at a healthy $469 million, Comptroller Roland W. Burris reported. Comptroller Burris said that the end of September balance is $79 million higher than the balance at the beginning of the fiscal year and $23 million higher than the balance at the end of last month. Burris further noted that the increase in the available balance demonstrates that the State spent less than it received in revenues during the first quarter of the fiscal year. Total expenditures from the General Funds were $1,871 billion while total general funds revenues were $1,950 billion. September sales tax receipts showed an increase of $13.4 million over the same month a year ago, possibly indicating some recovery from the recession's impact on this revenue source during July and August. However, revenues from all State sources increased by $103 million or 7.0 percent the same three month period a year ago. The major contributors to this increase were income taxes (up $39 million or 7.0 percent), public utilitv taxes (up $24 million or 24.5 percent), and federal aid (up $74 million or 24.6 percent). Total expenditures were $243 million or 14.9 percent higher than spending in the first quarter of last fiscal year. The largest bulk of this increase is a $107 million rise in public aid grants. Boat Traffic Closes At McHenry.Lock Nov. 2 The McHenry Lock, located on the Fox river near McHenry, will close to all boat traffic for the winter season at 11:30 p.m. local time on Sunday, Nov. 2. Up until the closing date and time mentioned above, hours of operation for the lock will continue as before, naipely, 8 a.m. to 12 mid­ night, seven days a week.

A timely opening is an­ ticipated in the Spring of 1981, and the lock personnel look forward to another season of service to the boating public on the Fox river and Chain-O'-Lakes. The McHenry Lock is operated by the Illinois Department of Tran­ sportation, Division of Water Resources. There is no charge for boats using the lock.

Since Mr. Thompson was out of town and unable to attend the meeting, further discussion was tabled until the next meeting. Bids are still being ac­ cepted for snow removal for this coming season. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the village is Oct. 21, at 8 PANCAKE BREAKFAST The active troop of Cub Scouts from Pistakee Highlands are fast at work for this year.

If the driver is a smoker, a cigarette may calm him down It may also blow him up. Cigarettes ignite spilled gasoline, compounding the mishap. So, what to do? Turn off the ignition. Then guard against further damage by directing traffic around the accident scene and setting off flares. Make calls. If there are injuries, call an ambulance. Then notify the police, but don't leave the scene. To do so could constitute hit-and- run, a criminal offense. Exchange information with the driver of the other car, such as name, address, telephone number, in­ surance company and in­ surance policy number. Also get the names and addresses of any witnesses and all passengers in both vehicles, whether or not they are injured. Be careful if offered legal assistance. Reputable at­ torneys seldom appear at the scene of an accident. Make notes that will help remember exactly what has happened. And if there is a camera handy take pictures of the accident scene. Then report the accident to one's insurance agent as soon as possible. These are just some of the tips that can be found in the booklet, "How to File a Claim". This 15-page booklet also gives advice on filing claims on homeowners in­ surance policies, and what to do when someone files a claim against them. ] purgeon McHENRY MARKET PLACE 385-4100 This »s the • ̂ /̂̂ ocKet Savings on Last Week Pnc*e - Fashions *>r YoUL Family and Home _ n's AH Over Oct. 19th Got Fur Fever?
