I PG. 16- PIAINDEALER- FRI. OCTOBER24, 1969 missioners beginning in No­ vember, 1972, and for every four years thereafter. In con­ trast, the House bills provide for the general election of m^nbers in April, 19 Initially one-half of the board membership serves for two years and one-half for four years. Their successors are elected for a four-year term. "I favor the election of coun­ ty board members in April in order to provide more visibil­ ity toward the election of these important local officials. The discussion and disposition of local issues through the elec­ tion process should be separate from the election of state and national officials," the gov­ ernor said in his veto message. " Local officials representing municipalities and townships currently are elected in April. It would be consistent to elect county board members at that time as well," the governor said. HB 2808 allows counties the option of choosing either the traditional primary or a caucus to be held by the ^oters of each party. The House "bills, further, permit the county board to util­ ize the primary election in Feb­ ruary which is already provided by statute. If the county board provided for the election of county board members by district, it may provide for the nomination by caucus. "Since many county boards currently utilize the caucus system for nominations, county boards should be allowed the option of retaining this pro­ cedure," the governor said.

Ogilvie and an equal number of Senate bills, dealing with the same subject, were vetoed. Rep. Don A. Moore of Midlo­ thian, chairman of the House committee on County and Town­ ship Affairs, which sponsored the House bills, said the bills will give county boards more latitude in conforming with the U.S. Supreme Court's one man- one vote rule than the Senate bills. The House bills require coun­ ties outside of Cook to reappor­ tion by July 1, 1971, and each ten years thereafter. Sponsors of the bills and others witnessed the bill-sign­ ing yesterday in the governor's office in the State of Illinois building in Chicago.

Troop 493, Brownies, and 499, Juniors, from Richmond are going on a hayride, with a weiner roast around the camp- fire afterward. Does that bring a pleasant thought to mind? Well then, how about a cook-out with Troop 190 at their leader's home. The girls made "vaga­ bond stew" and "buddy burn­ ers". They each cooked their own lunch. This same Troop is planning a trip to Chicago in December to see a performance of " The Nutcracker Suite". In order to finance this trip they are hav­ ing a bake sale on Saturday, Nov. 1, at the Eagle and Na­ tional markets. Brownie Troop 461 visited the fire station during National Fire Prevention Week. Junior Troop 416 from Greenwood school will be work­ ing on skating badges every Saturday for the next nine weeks. Troop 417 elected officers. They chose patrol leaders and had rededication ceremony. Re­ cently they held a mother- daughter tea. In Wonder Lake our Brownie troop is preparing for inves­ titure. Last week we went out in the woods and found a spot just right for a secret Brownie ring. Investiture will be held Oct. 29 with all the pomp and cer­ emony of the "little people." Yes, things are happening, and they will continue to hap­ pen throughout the exciting Girl Scout year.
