« Construction On Hospital Begins Soon Construction of the $1,367,- 570 addition to Memorial Hos­ pital for McHenry County will begin within the next two weeks, putting into concrete form the announcement made fifty weeks ago that expansion of the county- wide hospital must take place. Bids were approved at a spec­ ial meeting of the board of directors last week, and finan­ cing for the project was con­ cluded earlier in the summer to give a green light to the ad­ dition and alteration program conceived by Ganster and Hen- nighausen, Waukegan architec­ tural firm. Actual start of the project should give a boost to the Wo­ man's auxiliary Holiday Hospi­ tality Day project, scheduled for Wednesday, Oct. 1, since this event is one of the big­ gest fund-raising projects con­ ducted in behalf of the hospi­ tal. The auxiliary, a leader in raising funds for the hospital and for Equipment within the hospital, can be expected to take a key role in providing funds for this latest addition. Mrs. Jane Shoemaker, presi­ dent, told the board last week that the auxiliary accepts the challenge to boost the contribu­ tions and aid the project sub­ stantially. Completion of the new ad­ dition is expected about April, 1971, since the general contrac­ tor, estimated it will require eighteen months for the build­ ing project. Successful bidders wereTon- _ yan Construction company, Mc­ Henry, general contractor, $753,000; Healy Mechanical Contractors, Peoria and St. Paul, plumbing contract, $100,- 000, and also heating and ven­ tilating contact, $271,433; Du- AU Insulation company, Chi-, cago, insulation contract, $32,- 137; Divane Brothers Electri­ cal Construction, Chicago, electrical contract, $164,500; and Automatic Elevator com­ pany, elevator contract, $40,- 500. Total: $1,367,570. Summarizing board action, Bert Hanson, administrator, said the expansion is a signif­ icant step forward to provide better service for people of the county. The addition will pro­ vide thirty-four new beds and will eq?and such services as x- ray, laboratory, medical rec­ ords, physical therapy, kitchen and business office. It provides the Woman's auxiliary with a larger, all-new area for its Snack Bar. Memorial hospital has re­ ceived the endorsement of the Hospital Planning council for Metropolitan Chicago to under­ go this major expansion. Kenneth Schuh, president, said the board is anxious to proceed with the new addition and also to discuss longer- range needs for an area hos­ pital with others interested. Meetings with representatives of Crystal Lake and McHenry are being held now. The all-new construction will include an L-shaped structure at the northwest corner of the present hospital.

The various expressions on the faces of these children in their first day of kindergarten at Landmark school reflect the busy minds at work within each of them.

PLAINDEALER PHOTOS VARIED WORK IN BOARD OF HEALTH DUTIES The McHenry County Board of Health has announced that a large boat sales business has now corrected the septic sys­ tem violation that existed. Sew­ age was indirectly entering the Fox river near a public beach where children swim. An ad­ ditional dye test was run to determine whether the repair work was satisfactorily com­ pleted. A septic violation was re­ ported near Crystal Lake. The investigation revealed that sew­ age was being discharged into the back yard near the well. There are fourteen children in the family. An old, unsafe abandoned house located along the Fox River north of Johnsburg is now torn down as ordered by the department. At a recent Board of Health meeting. Dr. Wilt asked the de­ partment to have the dump on Highway 120, 1 mile west of Mc­ Henry, eliminated. Many calls were made to various county and state officials in an at­ tempt to correct the problem. The state agreed to install fenc­ ing, No Dumping and No Park­ ing signs along the right of way. The owner agreed to clear the road right-of-way and clean the area. Twenty-five requests for FHA inspections of septic and well facilities were answered this past month.
