Nye Executive Vice-President Robert L Weber review;echthe growth of the bank during the year Weber stated that total resources had reached an all time high of more than 53 million dollars. This reflects a growth of more than 8 million dollars during the year of 1971. The largest growth was in the savings department headed by Ronald Vacula, where deposits increased almost 64 million dollars Weber commented that the drastic drop in the return on other types of investments contributed substantially to the growth in savings deposits. He stated that at the present time, savings deposits provided the best return of any short- term investment. Weber also reviewed the figures compiled by bank of­ ficers, Ormel J Prust and Edwin J Becker, Jr. , which reflected the bank's earnings for the year. Vice President and Cashier Thomas F Bolger reminded the stockholders that the spectacular increase in savings deposits also meant a large increase in interest expense. Bolger pointed out the interest paid to depositors figure on the report showed more than l l/2 million dollars paid as savings interest during the year. He also said that increased business meant a larger staff w ith the ensuing payroll and, of course, the 400 thousand dollars paid in taxes takes a big share of the income. The stockholders also reviewed the annual report sub­ mitted by Auditor Edwin J. Becker, Jr. , and commended the auditor for the excellent work in establishing a complete auditing program. Vice-President and Trust Officer Richard J. Zieman discussed the growth in the Trust department. Zieman stated that he and the other trust officers, Robert L. Weber and Lenora E. Frisby, had noticed much more awareness from the general public to the advantages of using a Trust department. He stated that the Trust department had also experienced a tremendous growth during the year. The stockholders were also advised that the drive-in hours had been expanded. Weber stated that it was hoped that the longer hours would provide for better distribution of traffic which could result in less congestion during peak periods. The stockholders elected the following directors: Gerald J. Carey, William A. Nye, Robert L. Weber, Thomas F. Bolger, Richard J. Zieman and William J. Cowlin. The board of directors met for the reorganization meeting and appointed the following officers: William A. Nye, M.D., chairman of the board ; Gerald J. Carey, president; Robert L Weber, executive vice president; and trust officer; Thomas F. Bolger vice- president and cashier; James E. Larkin, vice-president; Richard J.

Waste Disposal Within County Matter For Study A group which has been doing a great deal of thinking and studying about garbage is the Recycling committee of the McHenry County Defenders. Since its formation last spring, this group has sifted through mountains of technical literature and talked with several experts in the field of solid waste disposal. The purpose has been to determine how other areas are solving their solid waste problems, whether recycling is a practical and desirable way of handling trash and whether or not McHenry county could support a large mechanized recycling facility. As a government official pointed out recently, "Trash is our only growing resource". Prsently the public is throwing a way 54 pounds of garbage each day for every man, woman and child in the United States! It is predicted that the amount will rise to 8 pounds per day by 1980. Currently 200 million tons of trash must be disposed of each year in this country alone. The bill for this is $3-4 billion dollars. Many experts agree that the best way to solve this problem is through recycling. The McHenry County Defenders have attempted to introduce recycling on a small scale with their collections of glass, tin cans and paper But as suc­ cessful and well-received as these collections have been, the Defenders feel they can hardly make a dent in the enormous problem. What is needed is recycling on a large scale. Some cities and counties have started this already. Among the more successful recycling programs has been the one conducted at Madison, Wisconsin. Here newspapers are bundled by residents. They are picked up at the same time as other trash but are kept separate and are sold for recycling into new newsprint. Other trash is taken to a central location where large items such as tires, glass, old appliances, etc. are < removed. The remainder is milled until all pieces are less than : s 4 inch in size. This mixture decomposes readily when exposed to sun,air and moisture and becomes again a part of the soil Several members of the Defenders' Recycling committee plan to visit the facility at Madison next week While continuing their study, committee members have been presenting programs on recycling for various local groups interested in learning more about this concept of waste disposal. In addition, an informational program is being planned Feb. 2 to acquaint the public with the possibilities for recycling wastes here in the county. For additional in­ formation about recycling programs, contact Mrs. Robert J B e c k e r POLITICAL CORNER TESTIMONIAL DINNERm PYiends and supporters of Rep. John B Anderson will hold a testimonial dinner to open the Congressman's re­ election campaign, Dinner Chairman Dennis W. Johnson of Rockford has announced. The affair is scheduled Feb. 16 in Viking hall at the Wagon Wheel Lodge in Rockton. Tickets will be sold throughout the 16th Congressional district, which includes McHenry. Students Hear Class Talk On Real Estate Separating "just lookers" from qualified buyers, and g u a r d i n g a s e l l e r a g f ' 4 holding "a virtuai op*.n hou&t; for all hours of the day and night", were among reasons given Wednesday, Jan. 12, as to why property for sale, should be listed with a licensed realtor. Thomas P. Mathews, IV, president of T.P. Mathews, Realtors, so advised an assembly of classes in the subject of Consumer- Economics, at McHenry high school, West .campus. Mr. Mathews, who has headed his firm for over twenty years, also warned one at­ tempting to sell his home on one's own, that it could "prove costly, time-consuming, even a risky affair." Before listing, the seller is advised by the realtor about what his property will bring in the current competitive market. If agreement to sale price is reached, the seller agrees in writing to the listing price, and the realtor goes to work, placing "For Sale" signs on the property, at the sellers option He also plans the ad­ vertising of the property in the best media available for bringing about a sale, Mathews explained. "A listed piece of property," he added, "is seldom shown by a realtor, until a potential buyer has been screened as to his financial ability has been determined." He said since few home owners are born real estate salesmen, bargaining is best done by an experienced realtor, as bargaining involves the intricate matters of price, terms, possession and finan­ cing.
