The number of banks par­ ticipating in the over-the- counter sale service this year is an increase of twenty-four over last year's total, Lewis said.

At their discretion, the banks may choose to charge an ad­ ditional fee, not to exceed $1, for the service to offset the cost of a $6,800 validating machine each has had to purchase. The banks will also set their own hours. The Secretary of State's office outlets, in addition to passenger car renewal ap­ plications, will process all other types of applications, including original registrations, tran­ sfers and certificates of title, Lewis said.

Student Art Exhibit At Area College Beginning Nov. 27, and until Dec. 17, Ben Stephen Bever- wyk, a former student at McHenry County college, at the invitation of Joseph Rybacek, head of MCC's art department, will exhibit his paintings, et­ chings and sculpture in a one- man show at the college, 6200 Northwest Highway, Crystal Lake. Ben, currently a 21-year-old art major at Western Illinois university, took art courses under Rybacek, who says, "I was most impressed with Ben's experiments with various art mediums, particularly the use of salt crystals, to achieve unusual effects and also, his use of color." Although Ben won an art contest at the age of 8, he did not appear very interested in art until he studied sculpture with Arthur Pelz at Oak Park- River Forest high school. He won an Award of Merit from the Scholastic Art foundation ^during his high school years.
