N Even some people who grew up with salt in their hair and spray on their sunglasses think that taking a beating is part of boating. But it isn't so. In defense of all the millions of intelligent and happy boatmen, I will say categorically Ihey sre not masochists who like lumps and bruises -- They just know how properly to hang an outboard motor on the backs of their boats. That's right. An improperly set up motor on any boat can make the thing handle worse than an ill-tempered horse. -- Or to the other extreme, wallow like a water buffalo. No one is happy very long with a boat that alternately lifts its bow and slaps it down into the water again with a metronome-like rhythm. This seesawing action is usually referred to as porpoising. It's generally attributed to incorrect motor angle or too much weight in the stern of the boat. If your own boat has a tendency to porpoise, decrease the motor angle, that is, move the lower unit closer to the transom of the boat. Every outboard motor has some means of transom angle adjustment, either notches or supporting pin hole adjustments in a quadrant type bracket. Try bringing the motor in. first one, then two adjustments. This will bring the bow down and will usually stop the slapping motion. At the same time you will find that the boat will bounce onto plane without struggling and you'll suddenly find that it has increased gumption for work to both extremes. If the motor is tucked in too close to the transom, the boat can become bow heavy. It will have a tendency to plow rather than to plane, to bury its nose in the turns, toss green water all over its passengers every time it encounters a wave and on a straightaway it may fall off to either side so that the boat will refuse to run on an even plane. If the handling characteristics of your boat fall into this category, try moving the lower unit out a notch or two and chances are you'll find this makes all the difference in the world and you'll probably pick up some added speed. ORDINANCE BE IT ORDAINED by the City Council of the City of McHenry, Illinois, that ARTICLE VIII of Chapter 12 of the Municipal Code of the City of McHenry as passed and approved on the 17th day of April, 1961, be and hereby is amended by the addition thereto of the following: 45-d.

Any person found sleeping in such place, and who has no established domicile or residence, shall be considered to be a vagrant.

Over 250 12th district Republican committeemen, office holders and wives mingled on the spacious lawn and terrace enjoying the delicious food and ample refreshments. The large turn-out was doubtless spurred on by the warm sunny weather and the anticipation that Wildman would make some announcement concerning his political future. Those that came for the latter reason left disappointed, because no hints were given as to his intentions. Guests were asked to estimate the interest on the national debt for the duration of the four-hour picnic. Max Wildman presented a $100 diamond studded pen to the winner, Frances Jankowski, of Prairie View. Her answefr of $4,250,250 was closest to the actual figure of $4,525,568 that was supplied by Senator Dirksen's office. As the guests arrived they were asked to cast their ballots for their choice for President and Governor. Of the 261 ballots cast, 218 wanted Senator Barry Goldwater for President. George Romney ran a poor second with 16 votes, followed by Richard Nixon and William Scranton. Mark Hatfield, Thurston Morton and Milton Eisenhower split a few write-in votes. The gubernatorial contest was a different story, with a close race between Charles Carpentier Charles Percy. Carp e n t e r l e d t h e b a l l o t i n g with 140 votes, followed by Percy with 103 and Hayes Robertson with 16. Lar Day and Witwer made up the balance.

S T A T E F A R M I N S U R A N C E C O M P A N I E S i -i Officii Bloom)Milwoi* j V«210£4 « UNDER 21 A column lor teen-agers By Dan Halligan Roger Weiss, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Weiss of 914 W. Oak Leaf avenue, McHenry, has been awarded a Naval ROTC scholarship to the University of Minnesota. He graduated in June from Marian Central Catholic high school, and will now attend the Institute of Technology, majoring in aeronautical engineering. The young man will be sworn in as a midshipman and upon completion of college will receive a commission as an ensign in the United States Navy. He received this scholarship in competitive examination throughout the country, and earlier this year received a nomination to the U. S. Naval academy, Annapolis, from Congressman Robert McClory, 12th district. Ever wonder why nobody gives a shower for the groom?? Maybe, he's all washed up, anyway. A person who admits many faults is generally easier to get along with, than a person who claims to have none. Everybody receives advice-- but the wise profit therefrom. DEAR DAN: Today a few of my girl friends were over and one of them phoned this boy I like. He didn't talk very long to us and after he had hung up, another one of my friends phone him and told him not to be mad at me because it hadn't heen my idea to phone in the first place. But what happened ^ as that he told this girl he didn't like me anymore. Dan, I roally like him and want his friendship back. How can I get it back? -- Wondering. DEAR WONDERING: Walt and hope Is the only advice I can give. There's nothing, absolutely nothing, a boy hates more than to be called by a girl and know there are about a dozen other ears nearby. Fourteen, IS and 16-year-old boys embarrass much easier than some of yon girls believe. I don't blame him one bit for what he said. DEAR DAN: I'm 15 and would like to know if it's all right if a person my age smokes a pipe? I'm in a group of boys who get together once a week for a meeting and everybody there smokes a pipe but me. I have a summer job and earn $17 or $18 a week and I would be willing to buy my own pipe and tobacco. My father says I'm not old enough to smoke and my mother says I would look stupid. What do you say? -- Darrell G. DEAR DARRELL: If you could give me one good reason why your buddies smoke pipes, I might be able to give you a sensible answer. Why don't these guys eat apples during the meeting? Why don't they drink milk? Why don't they chew gum? If there's anything sillier looking than a 15-year-old boy smoking a pipe, it's probably these sweet little old ladies with their blue hair smoking king-size ciggies. Be the odd ball in your crowd -- don't start smoking. i he facts first and then ask the question. I'm 15 and a sophomore. Bob is 17 and will soon be a soldier for three years. We want to wait for each other and after I graduate and he's out of the Army, we want to get married. We're sure we love each other and that this isn't an infatuation. We enjoy being together. Our parents consent to our waiting. Do you believe we should try this because I have no desire to go out with anyone else but Bob and he feels the same way about me. Should he give me a diamond before he goes in service? We both agree this might make a difference to some of the boys around here. The ring might also discourage me if I tried any flirting while Bob way away. I don't intend to but you never know about such things. Give us your honest opinion -- P. and B. of Pylesville, Md. DEAR PYLESVILLE STEADIES: Both sets of parents agree to your waiting? Good grief, how stupid can some adults be? If your parents encourage this ridiculous situation one day more, they should be weighted down with cast iron and dumped into the nearest reservoir for about a week. The facts are these: You're 15 and the quicker Bob leaves town, the better off you two will be. I know how romantic everything sounds to you and I also know how dreary I sound but don't be a chump, will you? Whether or not I hart your feelings is the least of my worries. Surely your clergyman doesn't condone this planned tragedy, does he? DEAR DAN: If a boy calls a girl pet names, such as "honey" and "doll face," does it mean he really Iflces "her? -- Don't Know. DEAR DON'T KNOW: It could but I'll bet he calls the other girls by these names too. I also bet he believes he's quite the lady's man. DEAR DAN: Is it normal for a girl to see a boy only once, not even speak to him, and still believe she has a crush on him? That's my problem. Is it because I'm only 14? -- Anxious. DEAR ANXIOUS: It's as normal as Christmas coming on Dec. 25. However, 14-year-old girls don't have a complete monopoly on crushes and boys they've seen only once. But it's nothing to lone sleep over. DEAR DAN: Maybe this isn't a problem but I have to DEAR DAN: I know you're opposed to car-dating by girls of 14 but what are you supposed to do when you live nine miles out of town on a farm? Are you supposed to ask the boy to "walk" to town with you? Have you got a smart answer for that one? -- Rural Girl. DEAR RURAL GIRL: Of course, I've got an answer. You shouldn't be dating for another year. But as long as you do have that privilege, I'm sure your parents allow boys to drive ybu into town.
