HOLD JOHNSBURQ PUBLIC SCHOOL ELECTION AUG. 17 Memories of the years during which John B. Wirtz served the city 9s chief of police must have been recalled by old timers with his death this Week. Affable Mr. Wirtz followed another popular chief, Jack Walsh, and they carried on the type of police duties familiar to jScHefiry before the sudden population explosion. These -two men were among the last to hold office during an era when officers depended on their own physical fitness as they walked the beat to patrol the streets. Offenses were less numerous, not because people were so much better, but because there were-less of them. Times have changed,' but the memory of these upright men who headed the police department will linger long. New lights have beeen installed in a number of locations ootstde the city limits, and one in which they are most welcome is the stretch of road north on Riverside Drive. This has long been a very dark place at night for those who may have walked to their homes along the river. Charles Fritzsche of Fritzsche's Estates expects a double helping of good luck. After finding several four-leaf clovers near his home last Friday, he stooped over and picked up a five-leaf specimen. K. A. F. (Continued From Pace 1) KATHRYN CONWAY FOUND DEAD IN HOME WEDNESDAY (Continued From Page 1) reville road. She had always made her home here. She distinguished herself within the last few years when she received a college degree from the Pestalozzi Institute in Chicago. She had been a teacher in the rural area around McHcnry for many years, and before her retirement a couple of years ago taught in the Big Hollow school. Her husband, Ray Conway, preceded her in death in 1938. She is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Dan (Betty) O'Shea and Mrs. Gerald (Marian) Winters, both of Grayslake; three brothers, Martin, lEdwin and Robert, and two sisters, Mrs .Carl Weber and Miss Genevieve Knox, all of Mc- Henry; also ten grandchildren. The body rests at the George R. Justen & Son funeral home, where friends may call after 7. o'clock ThursdEiy evening. This means a 21 cent increase per $100 assessed valuation as shown on present tax bills. Comparing the 1962 educational tax rates of four McHenry county schools of comparable size and that of McHenry elementary school shows the following rates in effect: Fox River Grove, $1.40; Cary, $1.11; Harrison, $.96; Marengo, $1.11; and McHenry, $1,025. The present 1962 educational-tax rate for Johnsburg School District 12 is $.714. The proposed 21 cents increase raises this to $.924, still considerably below all schools compared. The board of education of School District 12, after considering numerous architectural firms, selected Orput and Orput of Rockford to assist in future planning. An option was taken on a 15-acre site on the south side of Oeffling road and Just north of Pistakee Terrace subdivision. A school has been designed, consisting of 36,000 square feet and containing eight regular classrooms and teaching stations for art, home arts, industrial arts and vocal and Instrumental music, as well as a properly equipped science laboratory, a central library, gymnasium and shower rooms, nurse's station and office area. At the outset, this building will house grades five through eight and remain flexible enough to best serve the district in regard to education and transportation. Estimated cost per square foot of this building will be only slightly above that of the majority of homes constructed by subdividers in this area. It will be a good standard school construction without expensive frills, so that the maximum amount of educational facilities can be obtained for a minimum amount of money. The total cost of school land, building, and equipment is covered under the proposed bond issue for $525,000. The Citizens' Committee strongly recommends that when this bond issue and referendum is brought up for vote, the public will recognize the needs of the district and support the recommendations of the committee and the actions of the board of education. AH may vote wno are citizens of the United states above the age of twenty-one years, have resided in the State for one year, in McHenry county for ninety days, and in District 12 for thirty days immediately preceding the election. No registration is required. SCHOOL BUDGET HEARING IS SET FOR AUGUST 26 Two Teaching Positions Remain Open In District 15 At the Monday evening meeting of the1 board of School District 15, a tentative budget for 1963-64 was presented to the membership. It was announced that a public hearing on this proposed budget will be held Monday, Aug. 26, at the Edgebrook school at 8:15 o'clock in the evening. Two teaching positions are still to be filled' within the district. Contracts were approved* Monday for Miss Darlene Le- Moine to teach second grade at Valley View; Mrs. Joan Hallig<irt, first grade at Erige- \ brook; and Richard Anderson, fifth grade at Landmark. Resignations were accepted from Miss Agnes Griffin, Miss Nancy Schloman and Mrs. Dorothy Tully. Enroll Handicapped A discussion took place on the enrollment of handicapped children in special classes conducted in Crystal Lake and Woodstock, and approval was granted. Present at the meeting was Miss Nancy Nichols, reading specialist who was employed recently. She discussed plans for remedial and developmental work to be done within the schools in District 15 this next year. Used furniture in the former Lily Lake school was sold to the Baptist church. Approval was given for the purchase of a portable stage for Edgebrook school. READ THE CLASSIFIEDS Council Proceedings (Continued from Page 1) new control board. This was approved at the special meeting. A list of improvements at the disposal plant have been completed and the unexpected expenditure for new motors appears to be the final requirement. Harold F.

Thi.1 will put the district deeper in the red by the end of the new ;chool year, and deficits will continue to mount unless corrective steps are taken. This involves either new tax funds by referendum, a policy of leficit financing and borrowing, or drastic slashes in already pared budgets which could effect educational standards. Considering the time las between new tax rates and when the funds become available, and certain expenditures that are tied to contracts, the district will need three to five years to balance its affairs. It has been operating at a deficit for several years, but used up reserve funds held in escrow for emergency to pay bills before seeking a,tax rate increase. The educational and transportation rates have not changed since 1953. Importance of education to children, and the value of a good school system to the community in terms of market values of homes also underscored the meetings.
