McCuliom Lake " TRAGEDY OF WHITNEY ACCIDENT STUNS VILLAGE Eve Levesque Marine Private David R. Walt rip, son of Mr. and Mrs. G. G. Waltrip of Route 2, Ivlylith Park. McHenry, completed four weeks of individual combat training Sept. 24 with the infantry training regiment at Camp Leieune, N. C. The training provides newly enlisted Marines with a background of experience in t he field under combat conditions. Livefiring exercises are conducted, in addition to field trips and classroom lectures. As of Monday morning, Mrs. Jeanette Whitney was still unconscious in McHenry hospital ns a result of an automobile accident early Inst Thursday morning on Route 120 in Lilynioor. Her companion in the car, Lawrence Stilling, 38, was killed. Services for him were held Saturday morning. De tails appear elsewhere in the Plaindealer. All of us in the village and those with whom she works are praying for Jeanette's recovery. This plucky little gal has the respect of everyone who knows her. Her position is that of head cashier at a local food store in McHenry, and her record for perseverance and attention to duty speaks for itself. Not too long ago, Jeanette was a finalist in the contest to choose the friendliest and neatest of the many clerks employed in the entire chain. She ended up with sixty-three other contestants. It was only a game of chance which separated her from her desired trip to Hawaii. Our sympathy is also with the three Whitney children who were being cared for, by an uncle in Lilvmoor. They are Jackie, 9, Brad, about 7, and baby Corky, 3. We sincerely hope that by the time you read this article the news of Jeanette's case will have a happy outcome. Our thoughts are with her mother and family during this time of travail.

Sanderg, M.D., of Homewood, governor of District 644, of Rotary International, spoke before a large group of Rotarians in McHenry at the club's regular weekly meeting on Thursday of last week. Dr. Sandberg's talk was both interesting and informative. He told local Rotary members that every forty-four hours for the past fifty-seven years, a new Rotary club has been formed. Another point of information was the fact that there are more Rotary clubs in the United States than in the rest of the world, and that more countries have Rotary clubs than are represented in the United Nations. hotel and this was her base of operations.

McHenry In the JEWEL Shopping Plaza Harrison Board Discussions Stem From Recent Meeting Harrison school board examined many subjects of educational and administrative nature at its last meeting. These i n c l u d e d g u i d a n c e p r o g r a m s and science subjects in elementary grades, relations with the community, financial outlook for education, and means of making board meetings more efficient, if not shorter. The discussions stemmed from a recent meeting of the Kishwaukee division, School Board Members and Administrators, DeKalb, presided over by Dr. Raymond H. Watkins cf the Harrison board. Panel discussions were att e n d e d by H a r r i s o n b o a r d members whose highlight observations include: Financial Outlook, Wilbur Haak -- State revenues, that represent about 27 per cent of school operating income, are falling short of state-wide requirements. School costs over the next several years are expected to continue up. New taxes, higher existing taxes, and broadening of tax bases can be expected. Science in Elementary Schools, Supt. Merl F. Thomas -- Experiments by some school districts in revising science programs, some devising their own unit systems, came under c r i t i c a 1 observation. Most districts, such as Harrison, are broadening science programs using vast resources of many publishing houses in physical, biological and chemical subjects. Students today need better knowledge of the sciences to cope with modern technology. Guidance Problem Guidance and Counseling, Mrs. Jay Hansen -- Early detection of behavior problems, with guidance counseling between teachers and parents, can have beneficial results. This often means the difference between school' drop-out and e d u c a t i o n a l e n r i c h me n t . Harrison's approach to guidence, through grade-card references and personal contact, has positive responses in 90 per cent of such cases. Still more effort is needed to correct problems before youngsters reach high school, where some 25 per cent drop-out each year. Board-Administration - Faculty Relations, William Cristy School boards, representing the public, should strive for the best education the community can afford -- teachers should continually strive for the best in education. The Community, James Robison -- Good community relations are vital. Many means of communications should be used regularly to help the public understand school issues and problems. New releases of Harrison board meetings, teacherparent conferences and seminars, and the more recent breakfast meetings with community leaders, were cited as examples. Board Meetings, - Dr. Raymond H, Watkins t- Conduct of board meetings determines the quality, effectiveness and cost of .thp school operation, and often may affect the legality of board actions* A regular procedure should be established to channel requests and complaints from the public through the administrator to the board. The public should have the opportunity to be heard on specific issues at designated times and within a time limit. But individuals should not participate in general discussions of other issues before the board.
