Meeting Tuesday SNAPPY STORY A young couple were walking in the moonlight. After a long silence the young man saidi "Mabel, I hate to tell you, but there is something ! think you ought to know before we get married. 1 don't think I'm do­ ing right unless I tell you." The bride-to-be turned pale and asked him what it was. '1 am' a somnambulist, " the © youth confessed. "Oh, that's all light, John," replied Mabel, "I'm a Metho­ dist, and we'll go to your church one Sunday and mine the next." For the sixty-fourth consec­ utive year, stockholders of the McHenry State Bank met for the purpose of organizing the bank for the coming year. Judge Wil­ liam M. Carroll, chairman of the board, presided at the meet­ ing held at the bank on Tuesday, Jan. 13, 1970. E x e c u t i v e V i c e - r r e s i d e n t Robert L. Weber reviewed the business of the last year. The tight money situation has slowed down the growth of financial in­ stitutions in most areas, however, Weber pointed out that the total resources of the bank had increased approximately $3,000,000.00. President Gerald J. Carey commented that the bank's to­ tal is in excess of $42,500,- 000. Mr. Carey commented that the bank totals were around $13,000,000 when the present building was occupied in 1956. Vice-President and Cashier Thomas F. Bolger reviewed the loan policy of the bank. Bolger stated that the loan fig­ ure had Increased approxi­ mately $3,000,000 and now to­ tals more than $23,500,000. President Carey assured the stockholders that the increased loans had been made without sacrificing the quality of loan and that in spite of the tight mohey situation and high inter- * i r r„,- i r i l- „ est rates, "the McHenry State Bank expects to have money available for good loans. Pres­ ident Carey further stated many financial institutions discontinued home mortgages completely because of the high­ er return on other types of investments. The McHenry State Bank has a long stand­ ing policy of serving the com­ munity and therefore, recog­ nizes the obligation of taking care of the community needs. Vice-President Bolger stated that almost $15,000,000 is out­ standing in first mortgages on homes and business properties in the McHenry community. He also pointed out that the Install­ ment Loan department, headed by Vice-President James E. Larkin, has surpassed $4,- 000,000 in loans. The trust report was dis­ cussed in which Vice-President and Trust Officer Richard J. Zieman, reviewed the progress of the Trust department. He stated that this is the fastest growing department in the bank and that the three trust offi­ cers, Robert L. Weber, Len- ora E. Frisby and himself, anticipate further expansion of trust facilities. Mr. Zieman also reported that additional safety deposit boxes had been installed during the year.

But one incident may give an indication that these po­ lice efforts are effective. On a spring day in 1969, a dissident student told North­ ern police that campus dissent would make the campus' new ROTC and police training pro­ grams primary targets in au­ tumn demonstrations. The September efforts of dis­ sident students never reached the demonstration stage. Prob­ ably because police took time to listen, that dissenting stu­ dent continues his opposition* but is channeling it In a dif­ ferent direction. Late in autumn, 1969, the stu­ dent asked to appear before ses­ sions of Northern's Law En­ forcement institute to discuss student involvement in campus dissent. Northern police now are working with the institute to find a time when he can speak to the law enforcement officers. sistant Cashier Ronald J. Vac- ula, is now equipped to offer .all types of savings plans. As a matter of Information, Bol­ ger stated that all the various types of savings plans being advertised by the metropolitan banks were available at the Mc­ Henry State Bank. E x e c u t i v e V i c e - P r e s i d e n t Robert L. Weber cautioned the stockholders that the increased deposits ahd.more business also means increased expenses in addition to the added income. He said that almost $350,000 of the bank's earnings went to pay taxes and that over $895,- 000 was paid out in interest to savings depositors and, of course, the salaries of seventy- five officers and employees was a major operating expense. Weber, in response to a ques­ tion, answered that the bank payroll is represented by per­ sons from almost every village and subdivision in the McHen­ ry community. The stockholders elected the following directors: Gerald J. Carey, William M. Carroll, William A. Nye, M.D., Robert L. Weber, Thomas F. Bolger, Richard J. Zieman and William J. Cowlin. The board of directors met at the reorganization meeting and appointed the following of­ ficers: William M. Carroll, chairman of the board; Gerald J. Carey, president; Robert L. Weber, executive^ vice-pres- ident and trust officer; Thomas F. Bolger, vice-president and cashier; James E. Larkin, vice- president; Richard J. Zieman, vice-president and trust offi­ cer; Lenora E.

Becker, Jr., assistant vice- president and auditor; Donald Wattles, assistant cashier; Lil­ lian Cairns, assistant cashier; Albert G. Vales, assistant cash­ ier; and Donald H. Meyer, as­ sistant cashier. Miss Frisby, Vacula, Prust, Lane and Becker received pro­ motions. Lenora E. Frisby, who. serves as secretary to the pres­ ident and assistant trust offi­ cer, was advanced to trust offi­ cer. Ronald J.

'Northern Illinois university freshman student, Debralynn Varese of McHenry, operates the con­ trol center for the campus policg communi­ cations system. Student workers in the com­ munications and clerical posts for the NIU of- Students Talk flee of security and safety permit full-time officers to perform regular police duties. Miss Varese (2917 Wfest Deborah lane, McHenry) is a 1969 graduate of Woodstock's Marian Central high school. With national attention focus­ ing on the issue of student dis­ sent on the campuses, the NIU approach to law enforcement shows signs of being one of the answers to the issue. James Elliott, new director of security and safety, explains: "We find that students want individual attention. If we can give them that, it is a big step toward good communication." A campus police officer since 1963, Elliott views improved campus-police communication as an important task for his department. * Open Daily 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. - Fri. til* 9 p.m. CLOSED ON SUNDAYS USE THE FREE GREEN STREET PARKING AREA DELTA Saow Tires GUARANTEED MORE MILES PER DOLLAR THAN ANY OTHER TIRE 6.50-13 -$17.90 6.95-14 -SI9.
