Conway's condition is improving, but he is still under a physician's care. Witnesses testified Friday morning that train orders had been given to slow up the train at the point of derailmentf Conductor D. (B. •Vethe.

Clay Hughes wouldn't come close to Jim's 572 series. Les Bacon came close--567. This will naturally bring out a larger vote than usual and will make the election on Saturday an interest* ing one. In the high school election, Jos. W. Freund is the only candidate for reelection. Mr. Fruend is the oldest member of the board in years of service, having held office continuously since the Community high school district was formed in 1920 and served as secretary of the board for many years. His term is for three years. Polls for the high school election will be located at the city hall and will be open for the convenience of voters from 12 noon until 7 p. m. R. G. Chamberlin is seeking re-election for president of the grade school board, to serve one year. The members, mentioned above, are to serve for three years. v The polls for this election will be at the grade school, and will be open from 12 noon until 5 p. m. Henry W. Hettermann meets no opposition on the ticket for re-election as member for the Johnsburg school, District No. 12. His term Is for three years. There will also be an election of a school trustee for McHenry township Saturday and will take place on Riverside Drive from 2 to 4 p. m. and also at Ringwood. Only one name appears on the ballot, that of Clayton C. Harrison, for a three year term. The township board meets three times a year, usually on the first Monday in April and October and within ten days after election they meet to organize. The duties of the township school trustees are important, as all school finances and business of the township are supervised by them. The office of secretary and treasurer, who is appointed by the trustee board every two years, is also one of responsibility and trust, as this officer handles the school money, signing the vouchers for salaries and other expenses.

On March 29, 1940, the high school iband and orchestra proved themselves very fine musicians by winning a sec. ond division rating in the district contest for music at Glen Ellyn. Thii is the first year that either of these groups ever appeared in such a contest. The band had two other competitors in Class C (high schools of 260 an<| under) in which they were classed, The two competitors were the Water*, man band and the Geneva band which played for criticism only. All three bands were required to play the "Traveller Overture" by Buchtel, a number from the contest list and a warm-up number. For the selected number our band played the "Robin Hood Fantasie" by Brockton for the warm-up number they played a march, "Show Boy" by Huff. Besides playing the above numbers, the bands were required to sight-read a march, "Hilltoppers," by Yober, and an overture, "Luzerne" by Brocton. The judges for the bands were N. W. Hovey and H. Stube. They spoke very well of our band, quote, "This seems to be a very attentive group of young people, lacking somewhat in experience. but nevertheless doing «P creditable job on the compositions selected." The orchestra also had two competitors, the Barrington orchestra and the Geneva orchestra. The orchestra played three numbers. First the "Balletto from Orpheus" by Gluck, which was a warm-up number for stringsi only; second and third, the "Gypsy Overture" by Isaacs and the "Roumanian Fantasy" by Velska. The judges for the orchestra were R. C. Lewis and M. J. Isaacs, the composer of the "Gypsy Overture." These judges spoke very well of the orchestra too, quote, "This orchestra has a good foundation and should develop rapidly. It sounded better as it went along. Last number best of all. Enjoyable performance." This last Saturday, Martin Baum, who won a first division rating at Glen Ellyn for his baritone solo on March 9, won a first division rating at the state contest at DeKalb for the same BOIO, "Beautiful Colorado" by DeLuca. He is now eligible for the regional contest at (Battle Creek, Michigan, and yie hope he will also take first division there. COUNTY BOARD FAV0R8 THREE ROAD PROJECTS AMOUNTING TO $38,700 c. o. F.
