Two Treated, Released After Two-Car Crash No tickets were issued following an accident on Rich­ mond road, near St. Mary's church, in which both cars had to be towed away. Edward Migon of 3715 Lin­ coln avenue, Richmond, was driving south on Richmond road, with turn signal on, when his car was struck by another driven by Barbara Larson of 1508 Richmond road. The latter was driving east on Grand avenue, turning left onto Rich­ mond road, and thought the other driver was turning onto Grand. She then proceeded onto the highway. Instead, Migon's turn signal was for the next corner. Migon and a passenger, Complete Riot Control Course Shown above are members of the McHenry County Sheriff's department who just completed a 40-hour state-wide riot control course conducted in Elgin.

COUNTY BOARD ARGUES VALLEY HI POLICY (Continued from page 1) Questions over the present federal wage freeze restrictions prevented a vote. After much discussion, it was decided to make no change in the present twice monthly payment of county wages. A request had been made to pay bi-weekly. Too many changes from month to month, resulting in confusion, was given as the reason for keeping payments on the present system. The bid of Conlon-Collins, Crystal Lake, was approved to furnish a station wagon for the Zoning department. The firm made a low bid of $3,369.03. A tape recorder was approved for the Civil Defense department for the sum of $104, if reimbursement of 50 per cent can be obtained from the state. The sales tax received by the county for July was $37,506.30. TRANSPORTATION PROBLEMS IN SCHOOLS CONTINUE (Continued from page 1) sportation Director Glen Blank and Business Manager William Landis would visit parents in that area to select a new bus stop. Although one parent com­ plained about the teaching system at Valley View, resulting in pupils who were poor in math, administrators said tests show these students are comparable to, or above, the U S average for the same grades Dr Peter Griesbach, a former board member, was present to report on his study, Measles in Previously Vac­ cinated Children-Illinois" which will be published soon in school journals It gave proof of the effectiveness of the three- year vaccination program in the locai schoools. Only three children among the 3,300 enrolled in the local school district developed measles in the past year, while in some nearby areas it reached epidemic proportions. Dr Griesbach said smallpox is almost under control, and that in the future measles vac­ cinations could be included in the required individual health checkups. The board approved a request by the Special Education District of McHenry County for revising the budget estimates of special education housing. The first change calls for an increase in SEDOM revenues of $298,000 over the original estimate of $1,147,229. The second change, the more im­ portant of the two, is the revised cost of centralized classrooms and office facilities. The revision reflects an in­ crease in expenditures of $345,000 over the original estimate of $487,000. A motion was passed to seek' a maintenance man capable of carrying out many of the im­ portant functions in a growing school system. He will be employed part time to start. PRESIDENT'S DINNER PRAYER GIVEN BY McHENRY RESIDENT (Continued from page 1) for our own land and people but for the establishment of Thy Kingdom. Bless this food to our use that thereby we may be strengthened for Thy service-- who reigneth world without end". MUSIN' N" MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) because of their age", adults have a right to some protection from abuse also. Few store owners would object to any age group browsing in a store. But when an estimated fifty teens con­ verge at one time, with only about 10 per cent making purchases, it would seem any merchant might be expected to act. And it's a bit difficult to close a store for a half hour until the stampede quiets. We doubt merchants in McHenry intend to abuse any age group. It merely becomes a necessary evil for survival to do something in the pursuit of conducting a normal business. After all, no store is open merely as a place to convene for social purposes. Much comment has been provoked by the very attractive paintings on business store windows this week. The project is the work of art classes at McHenry Junior high, under the direction of Mrs. Wm. Toalson. The young art students have selected the Charley Brown theme in decorating Green street win- VANDALISM The Illinois Bell Telephone company reported that recently their company in­ vestigated the interruption of service to customers near Wonder Lake. They discovered five bullet holes in a cable on Barnard Mill road and Ridge road, Wonder Lake. The holes were believed to have been made by 38 caliber bullets which had penetrated the cable shielding and severed several of the small wires inside. dows in the Thanksgiving spirit. The program is new locally, and if it proves successful, these young people may be able to enlarge their efforts next year to also include other local business areas. An appeal is being made by the Red Cross county chapter for homemade cookies an­ ticipated as a treat at Downey Veterans hospital this holiday by 2,017 disabled veterans. These are served annually at the Christmas party. For several years, the Red Cross has delivered and distributed hundreds of dozens of cookies at Downey. Assisting in making this possible have been Scouts, 4-H'ers and other youth groups. Any organization wishing to participate in thi*> most worthwhile program is encouraged to obtain more information by calling the Red Cross office. McHenry county has promised 500 dozen cookies, but hopes to deliver as many as 1,000 dozen by the deadline Dec. 14. K.A.F. FORM 4-H CLUB A new 4-H club for teen-agers is being formed in Wonder Lake. Interested teens in that area are urged to contact Mrs. Henry Schau. ANNUAL RATE GET RICHER, FASTER AT THESE TOP RATES EFFECTIVE RATE COMPOUNDING Before radar Pilots, navigating narrow river channels in the San Francisco Hay area in dense fog, relied on "echo boards" before radar. These were huge wooden panels de­ signed to reflect the sound of a ship's whistle, giving the pilot a "fix" on the river bank. Former Wonder Lake Youth Dies In Florida Crash Wonder Lake friends of Hazel and Dick von Bampus of Orlando, Fla., learned with regret that their son, Peter, 19, was killed last week in an auto accident. Riding alone, he died in a one-car crash. The young man was at­ tending the University of Florida and was working nights in the post office at Gainesville, Fla. The von Bampuses were residents of Wonder Lake for many years before moving to Florida. Mr. von Bampus is a developer of subdivisions in and around the region where the new Disneyland is located.
