Those invited to appear on Sunday, March 8, at 3C." pjih " at the Crystal Lake high school auditorium include candidates for state office, as well as candidates for delegate positions to both the national nominating convention, and the state representative noriiinatiftg convention. The project was undertaken by the McHenry Township Republican Women's club, the Algonquin Township Republican Women's club and the McHenry County Young Republican club. The McHenry County Republican Central Committee has expressed appreciation and approval of plans for the candidates' afternoon. "Speaking on behalf of the piarining committee, Mrs. Thomas R. Davis of McHenry, 12th district state central committeewoman and president of the McHenry club, said that the joint presentation was undertaken with two aims in view -- service to the voters of McHenry county, as well as Consideration for the candidates (since a candidate's schedule is so rigorous, and demands on time as well as expenses so excessive). At a meeting in Woodstock, Mrs. Thomas Andrews, president of the Algonquin Township Republican Women's club, Mrs. Davis, Ross Kitchen, president of the McHenry County Young Republican club and Richard Joslyn. president of the 12th District Young Republicans, reviewed the gratifying response frofn the candidates, .e" .

PROPOSED COURT HOUSE DISCUSSED BY BAR GROUP The McHenry County Bar association's committee on the proposed new couht house for McHenry county met at Crystal Lake Thursday, Feb. 27. Chairman Henry L. Cowlin, Jr., Crystal Lake, presided. Meeting with the committee were Circuit Judge William M. Carroll, now serving as a justice of the Appellate Court, and Associate Circuit Judge James H. Cooney, both of Woodstock, and both exofficio members of the liar's committee. Other members of the committee are Harry C. Kinne, Jr., McHenry; Herbert O. Krenz, Crystal Lake; James H. Weir, Harvard; C. Russell Allen, William J. Gleason, David R. Joslyn and Don A. Wicks of Woodstock. Mr. Gleason was selected secretary of the committee. A general discussion of the needs of McHenry county for a new court house and the various methods of financing such a project was held. It was pointed out that the present structure is more than 100 years old, having been built in 1857. Peoria county is now completing a courthouse constructed under the Illinois Public Building Commission Act with financing by revenue bonds, according to information provided to the Bar by Vernon W. Kays, McHenry county clerk. The Public Building Commission Act permits the formation of a local commission to erect public buildings and to lease courthouse space to the county on a long term lease; the rents being used to retire the bonds. Lake county plans to construct its new courthouse by means of the Public Building commission Act. but Winnebago county will shortly have a referendum to decide whether the courthouse in that county ihoulcl he financcu with general obligation bonds, Mr. Gleason said. It was decided that the specialized knowledge of courthouse needs and methods of financing possessed by the members of the local Bar association should be made available to the Mc- Paul F. Jones, Lester E. Cun- j Henry county board of superningham and Clarence E. An- | visors. To this end, Committee derson.

The money is hardly worth the i great effort without the desire for service which only a limited number of persons are willing to give. These. people seem worthy of more appreciation than often comes their way. With regret we noted the low level of neighboring Lily Lake this week. All bodies of water have been reported down as a result of the small amount of moisture in recent months. However, the condition of Lily Lake seems more deplorable than most others, with the low level making it possible to walk far out into the lake. This has always been an attractive spot, located close to a busy highway and viewed by all who enter McHenry from the East. We sincerely hope the future will see an improvement in this body of water.

On the left is Rosemary Vitacca, 4, of Lake-in-the-Hills and on the right, Jeffrey Koch, 4, of Harvard. ; Chairman Covvlin appointed the given | following sub-committees to 1 study the problems within the I scope of their sub-committee | and to report back to the full i committee within two weeks: ! Architecture and design, Covv- | !in, Allen, Weir. Joslyn and For the second year, Chester Gould of Woodstock has accepted the county chairmanship of the annual Easter Seal drive. ' In accepting the chairmanship, Gould, originator of the Dick Tracy comic strip, commented, "The Easter Seal Therapy center has created so much interest that the 1964 campaign contributions will, in my opinion, exceed previous years. The Easter Seal program carries a great impact and provides expert care for many children and adults suffering from crippling diseases." The chairman added, "This is an independent appeal insuring the right of responsible citizens to determine for themselves the direction in which rehabilitation services for the handicapped will go." Approximately 24,000 letters carrying Easter Seals are being mailed out in the county this week under the direction of the county mail drive chairmen, Mrs. Owen Anderson. The theme of this year's campaign is "The First Step is Yours." The only way the center can operate is through the generosity of the people, especially during the campaign each year. *-• March 6 is the date for the ; ^Veir' K u mne and Krenz, legal ;iiext visit of the Mobile Chest Research and Drafting of docu- X-ray unit to Woodstock.

CONTRACTS About $1,000 in extra pay for special services was eliminated from 1964-65 teacher contracts by the Harrison school board. The action came at a reconvened meeting of the board that recessed Feb.-4 and was re-opened Feb. 18 to continue seeking ways to cut costs. A review of the record shows that actions of Feb. 4 were rescinded, and new motions were voted that provided for the following: Retain the same number of teachers next year as are now on the staff, at the present salary schedule that provides for $1,300 in increases for some but not all teachers. iAn alternate, new salary schedule that would have provided increases for all teachers, totaling $3,625 was defeated.) Retain bus transportation for students. Retain $400 in extra pay for a part-time basketball coach to be recommended by Supt. Merl F. Thomas, $600 for the band director, $150 for school plays, and $250 for the visual aids program. Eliminate extra pay for chorus, newspaper, safety patrol, student council, cheer' leading, and softball and an assistant basketball coach, these cuts representing allbut $1,000. It is understood that one teacher does not intend to return to the staff because of these actions, and a second is not returning for personal reasons. Motions to retain the same number of teachers and the .present salary schedule were parsed 5 to 2, Dr. S. L, Ruggero, president, Mrs. Jay Hansen, William Cristy, Joseph Sullivan and Wilbur Haak favoring; Henry Setzler and Dr. Raymond H. Watkins opposing. A motion to place the audiovisual work within the library function was favored by Setzler and Dr. Watkins, but defeated by the other u five. The board voted 6 to . l to retain bus service, Sullivan opposing. « Dr. Ruggero, Mrs. Hansen, Cristy and Sullivan favored the $600 for band, opposed by Dr. Watkins, Setzler and Haak. The motion to pay $400 to a basketball coach was favored by Dr. Ruggero, Dr. Watkins, Mrs. Hansen and Cristy, and was opposed by Sullivan, Haak and Setzler. Supt. Thomas read a letter from James L. Bixby, who serves the community as the unofficial reporter of board actions, listing the names of residents who are serving on a newly formed citizens' referendum committee being organized to help solve the district's financial problems. The district could be as; much as $36,000 in the red by year-end, depending on how much tax money for next year becomes available in May and' can be used to pay bills this year. The board voted 4 to 2 to accept the help of the committee, Setzler and Dr. Watkins opposing. Dr. Ruggero was not present for this vote, hut is known .'to favor the action. < . Committee members ^ announced when the cornmitteii) is fully developed, Bixby, who is organizing chairman, said A permanent chairman also will be named. Names of thUf. ty-severi individuals appeared in the letter to the school district, but many mpre have since indicated their desire to participate. Bixby said the committee will have a research unit to develop accurate facts and figures upon which voters can base their decision. The committee is seeking persons froth .all segments of the community, including known opponents of previous referendum attempts who have been asked to participate in the project. No jlate for the referendum has been selected. Guests attending the last school board meeting included Mr. and Mrs. James Gianola, Mr. and Mrs. George Street, Mr. and Mrs. Roy McCall, Rev; and Mrs. Bruce Breneman, Mesdames Maxine C. Bixby, June Kiddell, Dorothy Smith, Betty McArdle and Barbara LaGreca, and James Blume, Frank Jackson and Francis G.
