MUSIN N" MEAD ERIN" (Continued from page 1) of accomplishments we can't count on two hands. She's a proof reader after our own heart -- a good speller who has been blessed with that rare gift also of knowing where apostrophes should be correct­ ly placed. And in this busin­ ess you soon realize that's one bit of learning not many seem to have experienced or at least to have retained. Best of all about the anni­ versary, Marie brought a real tasty cake. We hope she stays around another eighteen years. K.A.F.

College Faculty association Dec. 1 passed the following motion: "Recognizing the urgent need to get on with the further de­ velopment of a high quality in­ structional program for the residents of Junior College Dis­ trict 528, the Faculty associa­ tion of McHenry County college announces its endorsement and support of the Dec. 5, vote. CONTINUE CITY ZONING DEBATE (Continued from page 1) the project to clear the Lake­ land Park-Lakeland Shores drainage ditch. As reported previously, preference was giv- ent to doing the work while there is frost in the ground. A com­ mittee was appointed to deter­ mine the feasibility of extending the work beyond the point of the proposed plan. A delegation from the Maple avenue and adjoining area was present to further discuss the low cost housing construction. Martin Foley requested strict inspection of plumbing in the new homes and was assuredthat the building inspector would be instructed along those lines. It was suggested that some type of ordinance be adopted to prevent building a row of homes of the same plan and appear­ ance. At the same time, Council members agreed that apartment homes should have brick walls if this can be legally required. Bids were received and two contracts awarded, first for gasoline for the coming calen­ dar year, then for a new mun­ icipal storage building. Only two bids were received to furnish gasoline and the Hes­ ter Oil Co., low bid was ap­ proved as it was last year. Regular grade gasoline will cost the city 17.9 cents per gallon, plus 7.5 cents to cover the Illinois Motor Fuel Tax. Pre­ mium grade bid was 19.9 cents, plus the same tax. Art'8 Lakeland Park 66 Ser­ vice offered to furnish regular gas at .298 cents, tax included. Flite-Fuel grade was bid at .326 cents. This bid was based on today's market and would be subject to change. A 1% cash discount would be allowed for payment on the tenth day of month following date of pur­ chase. Receiving bids for construc­ tion of the new building took considerable time as opinions differed. The bid of Joseph Frett & Son in the amount of $64,000 with eighty-nine completion days specified was approved. The Frett firm drew the plans, and as agreed at a previous meeting, waived the fee of $500 if awarded the contract. Wm. Tonyan & Sons bid $62,500 with 130 completion days. Heelein & May of Richmond bid $62,490 with 100 completion days. Ground breaking for the building started on Thursday of this week as urged by the Public Works Department. It is the plan to move all equip­ ment out of rented space and set up a workshop before the spring work for the street de­ partment starts. Wm. R. North presented and explained the audit of Water and Sewer funds and Wfflbe pre­ sent at the next meeting to cov­ er the general fund account. Delinquent special assess­ ments drew the attention of the Council and necessary action will be taken to bring these accounts in order. And, so -- a tired group adjourned, arose from their chairs, stretched and contem­ plated many other time- consuming problems that will not go away. District 15 Board Debates Need For Office Employees When two motions by Thom­ as Lawson, secretary of the board of School District 15, failed to receive a second at last week's meeting, consider­ able discussion followed on the need for a bookkeeper and an additional full time clerk in the central office, in conjunc­ tion with District 156. The first of Lawson's mo­ tions was to approve employ­ ment of a bookkeeper as a re­ placement for Lee Lokay, who resigned. The second was to approve an additional full time clerk in the accounting depart­ ment at central office. Lawson questioned how the district could manage without a bookkeeper until the next meet­ ing. . Mrs. Dorothy Vick, board member, expressed her feeling that it was not necessary to fill the two positions. She said the two districts must cooper­ ate, then indicated that some­ times they followed different directions. Lawson said it was neces­ sary to employ a bookkkeeper who also has had experience in accounting because of the nature of the work involved. Dr. Bergstrom informed the board that at least to date, the new computerized payroll sys­ tem has resulted in no savings to the district. He said the gov­ ernment demands a more de­ tailed accounting. To the question of Mrs. An­ nie Cuda, asking why the cost has not been less, Dr. Berg­ strom stated there had been many changes re quested in pro­ cessing checks for individual teachers, and each change adds to the cost. Henry Nell sug­ gested that employees be asked to keep changes to a minimum, then made a motion that the board approve employment of a full time clerk, which mem­ bers did. James Schaffer was appoint*! ed as a school board member to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Dr. Peter H. Griesbach until the next school board election. It was noted that twelve people were con­ sidered for this temporary post. The board okayed motions to approve the employment of Mrs. Genevieve Gardner as school secretary at Edgebrook re­ placing Mrs. Rita Thennes, and also to accept the resignation of Lee Lokay as bookkeeper at central office. Several teachers were pre­ sent to speak on the Social Stud­ ies program presented in the various schools. They included Mrs. Elaine Schmaling who spoke about the first four grades at Hilltop and Edgebrook; Miss Jeanne Trausch, fifth and sixth at Valley View; David Miller, seventh grade, and James Ces­ ar oni, eighth grade, both at Jun­ ior high. __ Maps and other material were presented to emphasize the var­ ious programs in which stu­ dents learn how people live to­ gether in other partfc of this country and around the world. Of special interest was a program of the University of Illinois offered to eighth grad­ ers, dealing primarily with three different units: The Fam­ ily in Society, Economics: Choice Making, and Man's Po­ litical Institutions.
