Crystal Lake was fined $10 i<>f (hiving in violation of li- (vtise restriction. URGE TOE Of CAR HEADLIGHTS AFTEB SUN SETS James J. Kujak of 5010 W. • 120, Mckenry, was fined for disobeying a stop sign. k $10 fine was imposed on » ank M. Perry of Wonder ke for driving with illegal ifflers. Frank Beto of Forest Park paid a $10 fine for passing a slopped school bus. Sarah L. Stine of 1625 N. Riverside drive, McHenry, was fined $7,. for speeding. This small piece of debris is one of the largest that remained of \an Air Force supersonic F102 Delta jet fighter plane that crashed and disintegrated in a field southeast of Crystal Lake last Thursday morning. It is shown in the huge crater created when the large plane nosed into the ground about 9 o'clock. An Army pilot escaped with only a wrenched back, but the plane was demolished when he was forced to bail out of his single-seat .jet fighter plane after the engine apparently developed trouble while flying southeast of Crystal Lake last Thursday morning. Capt. Robert T. Smith, 39, of Madison, Wis., a member of the 3 2 5 t h F i g h t e r I n t e r c e p t o r squadron at Truax field, reportedly notified ground headquarters that he was forced to leave the plane at an altitude of about 27,000 feet. An ambulance was sent from Truax field to take him to the base for examination. Lt. John Carroll of the sheriff's office said it was doubtful if any further details than those received on the scene Thursday would reach them following the Army investigation. The jet landed only about 300 feet from the residence of the Edward Adshade family, located on property owned by the Material Service Corp., and located in an area bounded by Rt.14, Rt. 31 and the Algonquin- Crystal I^ake cut-off road. The surrounding land is rented by two brothers, Alvin and Eugene Chally, who were working only about 80 rods from the chash scene. Both the Challys and Mrs. Adshade and two small children were shaken by the violence of the plane hitting the ground, which was heard over a wide area. Besides the sheriff's patrol car, eight squads of troopers from the state police hurried to the scene, and soon after the arrival of Army officials, the entire area was closed to traffic and placed under guard. Capt. Smith was found in the Cecil Barrett farm house between four and five miles away from where the plane came down. News About Our Servicemen U.S. FORCES, GERMANY-- Army Pvt. Ronald E.

This is the post prom banquet and entertainment which this year was held at George Diamond's, Antioch. We wish to publicly commend and congratulate the young people who attended (juniors and seniors of McHenry Community high school). They acted like ladies and gentlemen at all times and are a credit to their parents, their high school and their community. At no time did we observe reckless or improper driving or other improper conduct. Of course, we could not possibly see all that may have gone on, but we were with the group from 11:30 until after breakfast at 5:30 and also saw many in church. (Yes, we were wide awake all this time. We found a nap before helped.) Congratulations antj best wishes high school juniors and seniors. In this day of much criticism of the conduct of our young people, we wish to publicly acknowledge your excellent conduct. Mr. and Mrs. Virgil R. Pollock CLUB AFTER-GLO A very successful Club After- Glo brought a memorable prom to a close last Sunday. Sponsors were the Kiwanis, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the American Legion and the P.T.A. Edward Nyden of McHenry paid a $100 fine in the court of Justice of the Peace Joseph Ritter in Woodstock this past week and has again been placed on probation. The charge was violation of probation. When placed on probation some time ago, he was fined $1,000, with $800 suspended. At that time he paid $200, with the chance that if he did not break his probation this fine would be decreased. John Baldwin of Spring Grove was fined $50 on a charge of disorderly conduct. HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS "Illinois law prescribes the use of headlights during the period of sunset to sunrise" cautions traffic safety officer John Weichmann. Many drivers feel that the use of parking lights is a courtesy to other drivers. "Actually," continued Weichmann, "such drivers are doing a disservice to themselves and to approaching drivers." The official hour of sunset arrives some time before what we normally term darkness, lt is during this intermediate period of dusk that * one can drive down the highway to find himself approaching other cars displaying either headlights or parking lights. "This variety of brightness of approaching lights can and does seriously impair your ability to judge distance between yourself and those approaching" sayp Weichmann. Many drivers erroneously think that there is economy in the display of parking lights. Actually the electrical energy to power headlights is received from the generator of the automobile resulting in little or no drain on the battery. If there is a need to display any light at all, it is to your advantage to display headlights.

"SUPER-SWEET" COB* By Rogrne RmI* Basic research, aimed at discovering the fundamental processes of living things, sometimes turns up unexpected benefits. No better illustration .exists than the new "supersweet" strains of corn. Formerly just a genetic curiosity, this type of corn has opened up new taste horizons for sweet corn lovers. Hybrids Carrying this new • trait are twicc as sweet as normal corn at harvest time and four times as sweet fortyeight hours after picking. This increased sweetness is due to a single inheritance gene called "shrunken 2." Corn breeders have worked with this gene for many years. Several years ago University pf Illinois Researcher John Laughnan found that corn carrying this gene made mighty good eating. Not only was ic sweeter lhan normal corn at picking time, but it remained sweet for days after picking. Examining the sugar content, he soon found the reason. Normal sweet corn contains about 20 percent sug& MIhe kernel I »t picking time. This sugar \ •hanges • rapidly into starch ! once the corn is picked. Kernels with the shrunken 2 gene contain over 40 percent sugar at picking time. And the main sugar that is present, sucrose, Is the sweetest tasting member of the sugar family. Normal sweet corn has a higher proportion of glucose, not so sweet tasting as sucrose. The higher content of sucrose explained the extra sweetness, but not why the kernels remained sweet. Searching further, Laughnan found that, like all corn kernels, those with'the shrunken 2 gene converted sugar to starch. But they made tl>e change-over slowly. The enzyme system resqionsjble for this conversion was less efficient than that in normal sweet corn. Laughnan then began to incorporate this gene into normal sweet coin inbreds. These were used to produce "super-sweet" sweet cor*v_Jjybrids. Lawns grow by inches and die by feet. Be Wise Use The Classifieds SPECIAL!
