August 1*3. 1184 $53,810 REDUCTION NOTED IN COUNTY BOARD'S BUDGET (Continued From Page 1) Musin' & Meanderin' (Continued from P:IRP 1) - i« fcnj^ t^itative approval by the tinanc?^jfunit tee. Atty. David Joslyn, appeared as spokesman for a group of persons advocating provision for more open space and forest preserve area. He outlined the procedure they expected to follow and added that they hoped to put the proposition up to the voters in the November election. Supervisor Tom Huemann of McHenry said he thought the first concern should be to preserve the present natural attributes; . Bridge Proposals The board studied proposals of Supt. of Highways Wayne Mentzer, acting on petitions received from township road commissioners for new bridges. A new culvert bridge was approved for McHenry township. Tom Hueman was named chairman and Edward Buss and Ben May were named to his committee to act on bridges in Nunda and Dorr townships. The construction south of McHenry Will be on Mason Hill road. Supervisor J. G. "Curly" Ste- | vens of Richmond announced | his resignation, effective in ' September, because of poor: health. Chairman George Ja- I nak then recalled Mr. Stevens' long service to the county as treasurer, sheriff and more re- j cently as supervisor. Mr. Ste- ! vens received sincere applause for his many contributions. j His tentative successor is j Frank Buchert, who must be j approved by the Richmond I township, board and then by the j bounty board. j Zoning Action i i A number of zoning items! came before the supervisors, j One was a request of Russell Holochwost of McHenry con- j cerning a variation from B-l to j B-2 of property on Rt. 120, j east of the city, for restricted qse, allowing the sale of liquor off the premises. It was granted. Anthony Jayko was allowed a variation from B-l to B-2 for property on Rt. 120, at Lakend Park, to sell packaged alcoholic beverages for consumption on or off the premises. A petition of a California fertilizer company was sent back to the board of appeals for sa second public hearing because of numerous protests. The firm asks permission to erect storage facilities at the intersection of Rt. 12 and 31, south of Richmond. Following the first Hearing, the request was approved by the board of appeals. Miss McHenry Fair Runner-up (Continued from Page 1), tireless efforts, victorious up to this time. The point in mentioning the Davis story is that we have I long felt that the same eni thusiasm which characterizes this couple has done much to strengthen the Democratic pari ty in the McHenry community. Maybe the answer lies in being the "under dog." For as long as any of us can remember, McHenry county has been Republican. Has the taste of victory become commonplace to the point that they feel it isn't necessary to try as hard? While the Davises and their kind have maintained the spirit to fight for what they believe in, many more have apparently decided to bask in the glory of a victorious past. But this is the present, and Republicans would do well to look ahead to the future lest their political opposition realize the same kind of satisfaction the Davises have achieved through hard work, persistence and belief in an ideal. McHenry animal'lovers followed for some time the activities of Joe and Josie, twin deer born in captivity to the deer captured in Wisconsin through, use of a tranquilizer gun by Edward Thennes. Last oMay someone left the door of their cage on Front street open and both deer escaped. Joe was soon lured back, but Josie was first chased by dogs and later by humans fascinated by the sight of this wild creature roaming near the local golf course. The last she was seen for a time was when Josie plunged into the Fox river, swiftly spanned the body of water and gracefully climbed the east bank and disappeared .into the wooded area. Sometime later, she was noted fraternizing with some cattle in a field near McHenry, and later made her way to a point beyond the outdoor theatre. One of the Thennes sons, hoping to bring back Josie to a life of ease and safety, approached the spot with a tranquilizer gun and for a moment it seemed that success was at hand. However, on being struck, Josie took four or five leaps which led her to a nearby creek, Where she drowned before rescuers could reach her. Josie's untimely death, although it occurred several weeks ago, came to our attention just last week and brings the curtain down on a tragic but true story of wild life in captivity.

Motorcyclists Die In Crash (Continued from Page 1) CHARLES PERCY VISITS McHENRY AND COUNTY FAIR (Continued From Pflgp 1) The GOP candidate seemed anxious to discuss the reapportionment problem which has thrown Illinois' itito a state of confusion. He has gone on record as favoring a constitutional amendment which would permit the state to select its senators in accordance with a state amendment passed in 1954 and which only recently was challenged and declared unconstitutional by the U. S. Supreme Court. The matter is being discussed in Congress at this time. Asked about chances for unity among Republicans of influence on the national level, State police said the motorcycle was travelling West on the highway when Brokaw lost control and the vehicle skidded across the center of the pavement and head-on into the eastbound auto driven by Robert H. McCauley, 19, of 4016 Riverview Drive, McHenry. The cyclists were killed out right^ but McCauley escaped in jury. Coroner Theron Ehorn will conduct an inquest into the two deaths on Aug. 22 at the Peter M. Justen & Son funeral home, where the bodies were removed Wednesday night. They were then transferred to the Strang chapel in Grayslake for funeral arrangements. Brokaw was the son of Mr. and Mrs. George L.' Brokaw and the parents of Fisher are Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Fischer. The deaths of the two youths were the sixteenth and seventeenth on county highways this year. A Westchester, 111., man was reported in fair condition in McHenry hospital Thursday morning after his car was struck broadside by a semitruck trailer the night before. He was Raymond Tollefsen, whose auto collided with the truck driven by Donald Jung of Woodstock as both travelled on Rt. 120, two miles west of McHenry. The accident occurred at 6:40 p.m. as Tollefsen was driving east on the highway and the truck was approaching from the opposite direction. A witness told sheriff's deputies that Tollefsen's car seemed to be all over the road. As he rounded a curve the auto skidded and was struck on the driver's side by the truck. Jung was unhurt but Tollefsen was removed to McHenry hospital by ambulance. The latter was ticketed for failure to have his car under control. A passenger in one car received minor injuries in the collision of two autos last Saturday evening at 8:20 o'clock oh Riverside Drive, a half mile north of the city near the Orchard Beach intersection. Sheriff's deputies said William J. Martinec of McHenry was attempting to pass another vehicle when he suddenly ndticed an oncoming car driven by Nancy Lukasik of Arlington Heights. He was unable to pull back into his own lane before sideswiping the other car. Nancy Shanor of McHenry, a passenger in the Lukasik auto, sustained bruises. Authorities ticketed the Arlington Heights driver for travelling with only parking lights on. Jerome H. Zeiger of McHeti: ry was hurt in a two-car collision which occurred Saturday on Rt. 14, three miles north of Woodstock, about 2:15 a.m. Zeiger was backing from a parking lot, according to authorities, when his auto collided with a north-bound vehicle driven by Hylan Gray of Harvard.
