GAMBLING ARREST A citizen report to the county sheriffs department last Friday disclosed slot machines in operation at the Legion post in Huntley. Acting on a search warrant obtained from Judge James H. Cooney, an investigation disclosed gambling paraphernalia which was impounded by the sheriff's department/ and a warrant was to be obtained charging the post with possession of gambling contraband. SLsesil OPEN DEPARTMENT -- This attractive setting in the McHenry State Bank houses the installment and loan department. It is located at the west end of the structure, with James Larkin, shown sitting at right in rear of picture, in charge. The bank moved to its present Green street location in 1956, occ«wing space 70 x 70. Ten years later an expansion project doubled the size of the building. Musin9 and Meanderin (continued from page 1) for no increase in present fees, but requires that the fees for both years be paid at the time application is made for the plates. Reason behind the suggested change? The Secretary of State believes reduced expenditure for purchase of plates and decreased administrative operating expense in his office will benefit the road fund by about $10 million over a two-year period. He adds that the two-year plate system was given a trial run for state-owned vehicles for the 1969-70 period and has proved satisfactory. We were pleased with a letter from Mrs. Mildred Howorka, formerly of Wonder Lake, informing us that she and her husband, Herb, had retired and moved out of the smog to Oceanside, Calif., which she describes as "out of the congested area into the lovely wide open spaces again." Friends here will be interested to learn that Herb, Jr., and Barbara are still in Santa Ana and Louanne is a resident of the Lone Star state. The community misses folks like the Howorkas but these occasional notes help to keep in touch.

All that remains to get the 1968 bills into the hands of . taxpayers is the stuffing and stamping of envelopes. Most real estate bills will be mailed April 26. The remaining number, and personal property tax bills, will be in the mail by the May 1 deadline. An accounting of financial matters in connection with road improvement in Huemann's subdivision was disclosed. Residents there had requested the Board of Local Improvements to proceed on an assessment basis to repair roads in a manner accomplished a few years ago at Sunnyside. Supervisor Dean advised the group, however, that in another such request elsewhere in the state, this board was declared unconstitutional' in taking action. The residents were advised to obtain a contractor's estimate and request assistance from property owners in the subdivision. The report indicated a collection of $23,319.56 for almost a mile of improvement, leaving only a small amount of the total cost of $25,352.45. Since nine property owners have not yet been contacted, the remainder is expected to be forthcoming in the near future. The reconstructed roads in that area now have been officially accepted into the McHenry road district and all matters pertaining to them are the responsibility of McHenry township. The rabies inspector's report revealed that two skunks had been shot during the month and a laboratory report disclosed a positive rabies diagnosis. Parents are urged to REAL ESTATE TAX BILLS IN MAIL APRIL 26 With the real estate tax bills due to go into the mail April 26, stuffing of the bills and rate sheets is now in process in the McHenry county Treasurer's office. In his annual message to tax-, payers, Treasurer Cal Skinner, Jr., seems to be preparing for the worst as a result of the II.2 percent average tax increase this year. Skinner points out that his office sets neither tax rates nor assessments. He urges individuals to contact local governmental bodies in order to get maximum satisfaction from any comments they may have about their taxes. These local officials are "ultimately responsible for most of your tax rate increases", he states. "As far as assessments go, your township assessor should be your starting point", continues Skinner. " If, after talking to him, you still think your assessment is too high, a method . of appeal does exist. The first step is to obtain a complaint form from the Assessment Supervisor's office at the courthouse. Filling this out will ensure that the County Board of (Assessment) Review will appraise your property and send you the results." Skinner reveals that there is still further recourse if one is dissatisfied with the decision of the Board of Review. Within fifteen days after the board's decision is rendered, one may appeal to the State Property Tax Appeals board in Springfield. The State Property Tax Appeals board will hold a hearing in McHenry county to consider one's complaint. "This board was created recently to give the ordinary taxpayer an opportunity to obtain relief from excessive assessments without the necessity of going to court", advises the Treasurer. warn children to remain away frdm wild animals. A report of the McHenry County Board of Health showed eighty-five visits during the last fiscal year, to date, in the McHenry area, most of them for sewerage system investigations. This number topped by far any other township in the county. Authorization was given for printing 10,000 circulars on drug use by State's Attorney William Cowlin, to be printed at a price of $181.90 and distributed to schools. The Public Building committee reported on a meeting with representatives of nursing homes in the area regarding a report for recommendation to the board in connection with Valley Hi 's proposed expansion. The committee also met recently in executive session concerning the pre-annexation agreement with the city of Woodstock on the Bigelow property. It was the unanimous opinion of the committee that the chairman should write a note to Mayor Stuessy and request an executive session meeting with the entire council and the Building committee before the May 13 meeting of the county board. The board approved employing one additional Assistant State's Attorney at $10,000 a year ($6,000 of which is already authorized for the balance of the current fiscal year) and to increase Assistant State's Attorney Baker's salary by $500 a year. Authority was also given to increase the salary of the Second Assitant State's Attorney by $1,000 for the balance of the current fiscal year, if necessary. Mrs. Helen Lynch of Cary and Supervisor William Ward of Harvard were appointed to fouryear terms on the McHenry county seven-man Mental Health board. The positions are without salary. Considerable and heated discussion took place on some zoning requests, two of which were in the McHenry area. The petition of James and Lillian Bures and Charles and Dorothy Ann Smid for reclassification from "B-l" to "B-2" their business in Pistakee Highlands, was granted with special recommendation. The board permitted granting a packaged liquor license. The board delayed action until June on a request of the Road Materials Corp., for conditional use permit for a gravel pit at Burton's Bridge, on Rt. 176. Some board members expressed themselves in agreement with objectors that such pits are many times left as a dump, without water, when they are later abandoned. There was evidence that special restrictions would be demanded. Traffic and quasi criminal distribution of fines and fees in the office of the Circuit Court Clerk disclosed a threemonth total of $2,790.50 in the city of McHenry; $770.20 in Lakemoor; $126 in Island Lake; $356 in McCullom Lake; $15 in Spring Grove and $548 to the treasurer of McHenry township. The county sales tax for December was revealed at $26,266.59. In addition to the seating of Mr. Russel as chairman, one new supervisor and ten reelected members were introduced. CHOOSE NEW PRESIDENTS FOR SCHOOL BOARDS (continued from page 1) ing date was established as the second Tuesday of the month at 8 p.m. in the offices of the central administration building. Concurring with action of District 156, the board approved purchase of one school bus chassis from Buss Ford Sales for $3,800 and one passenger school bus body from Ross Bus Sales for $3,400. Acceptance was given to the' resignation of Arline H. Pearson, kindergarten teacher at Edgebrook, at the close of this year. Members later took action in allowing faculty members to remain on a year-to-year basis after 65. Anticipation warrants were approved through the adoption of a resolution for $123,000 to meet expenses and payrolls in the education, transportation and building departments until tax funds are received. Two residents of Whispering Oaks expressed their opinion that a waste of lighting existed at West campus, with outside lights turned on before sunset. Both inside and outside lights were evident as early as 4:30 a.m., they said. President James Althoff said he thought the time clocks were probably defective. CITY OFFICERS SWORN I NAT ANNUAL MFETINC^ (continued from nape 1) 15 was made and found to agree with the unofficial reports previously released. Following administering of oath to the elected pfficials, the new council convened. Arnold J. Rauen, chairman of the Police Pension board, ami Secretary Ronald J. Vacula presented a financial report and a suggested levy to be used when the annual tax levy is prepared. Harry Conway, chairman of the Police commission, and Secretary Jack Oakford presented a budget to be considered when the annual appropriation ordinance is prepared and passed. Reports indicate that both the police boards have taken a sincere approach to the many duties in forming thiese new departments in the past year and have functioned ably. Alcoholic beverage licenses were approved^ for the year starting May 1. Limits have been placed on the number of licenses to be issued in each class and these limits were again filled. There are fifteen Class "A" licenses which cover taverns. In this group Don Hoenes did not apply for renewal and the application of Carl W. Thonn was approved for the same location. Class "F" licenses were approved for package liquor stores, for McHenry Holiday Liquor and William E. Walker. The Nye Drug store and Osco Millstream Drugs also renewed licenses issued where Class "C" are issued only to pharmacies. Appointments of standing committees officers and employees were made by Mayor Doherty and approved by the Council. The Police Commission announced that Kenneth P. Espey had been named Chief of Police, Robert H. Kranz elected to the rank of Lieutenant, and John R. Weichmann and Gregory P. Burg to Sergeant ranking. Problems in the supply of water in the Lakeland Park area were brought to light. This is a privately owned water supply system not owned by the city. However, Council members indicated a willingness to lend support toward correcting the problem. It was reported that a group of property owners east of the Fox river have shown an interest in annexing to the city. Since extension of water and sewer facilities are of prime importance, the Council agreed to consult the Baxter and Woodman engineering firm. FIRE DESTROYS CENTURY OLD JUSTEN BUILDING (continued from page 1) vented more than smoke and some water damage to the latter. Mayor Donald P. Doherty, who owns the drug store, had left for the airport at 6:30 a.m. contemplating a week's vacation. When the fire broke out, he was reached just before departure time and returned to McHenry. Although Fire Chief Ed. Justen could not be reached as late as 1 o'clock Thursday afternoon, another fireman contacted earlier said it was his hurried opinion that the damaged furniture store building frame would need to be torn down. The business, known as Justen Furniture, Inc., is one of the oldest in McHenry, started by the late Jacob Justen. It was carried on by his son, the late George R. Justen, until his death and now by the third generation, Dennis Justen, and his wife.
