The state told county school officials recently that the available room in Hebron junior high school was undesirable, because the children in the handicapped class are of grade school age. Carl Buckner, assistant superintendent at McHenry, told a delegation from the Cerebral Palsy Parents' group this week that local school officials hope to persuade Graham that the state should change its mind in order to allow these children to remain in school next year. Said Buckner. "We know that the rooms in Hebron have definite drawbacks, but we are not accepting this as final rejection by the state." One of the projects of the commission is to study public opinion. For this purpose, the group plans tours of various stretches of the river during t h e s p r i n g a n d s u m m e r months, on which actual use of the river will be observed and tabulated.
