LINDBERG •COMPTROLLER - It was well into Wednesday, Nov. 8, before George W. Lindberg of Crystal Lake was counted in the win­ ner's column in his bid for the post of state Comptroller. He won over Democrat Dean Barringer. With more than 90 per cent of the precincts in, Lindberg was declared unof­ ficial winner with a 71,000 vote lead. CITY CHANGES ZONING FOR COMMERCIAL (Continued from Page 1) regulations applying to his property by building a 27 feet surfaced road. Because the Council hopes to connect this road with Lillian street at some future date, it was decided to pay the difference of $7,183.20 for a 34 feet road. It has long been the plan of the Council to relieve traffic conditions by connecting Crystal Lake road and Rt. 31. It was reasoned that allowing a 27 feet road at this time, then tearing up the curbing and widening at a future date would be too costly. A separately housed chlorination system at the water plant is now required by the state. A cost figure of $4,870, submitted by Wallace and Tierman of Broadview, 111., was approved. A grant through the Civil Defense will share one half of the $11,400 cost for two siren signals which will warn residents of the area in case of tornadoes and other disasters. Eric Bolander Construction Co. was the low bidder on completion of the Lakeland Park area drainage ditch with a bid of $81,078. Lakeland Construction Co. of McHenry presented the low bid of $1,296,378 for the road im­ provement on 111., Rt. 31 West to Draper Road. Bids were taken by the state at Springfield and awards are pending. Word was received this week from the Bureau of the Census that McHenry's official population figure is 7,680.

Interest Lessens In Vote Among Students [ For And About Teenagers ] Apathy, possibly gained through association with the older generation, appears to have settled among teen-agers. This conclusion came after comparing voting results at the two McHenry high schools this year and in the last presidential year of 1968. At East campus this past week, out of a possible 1,100 who were eligible to register, only 600 chose to do so, and of this number, only 440 voted. Students gave the Nixon- Agnew team 366 votes to 74 for McGovern-Shriver. They supported Senator Charles Percy with 356 votes to 70 for Roman Pucinski. In the Governor's race, Richard Ogilvie received 235 to 166 for Daniel Walker. Four years ago the gap between party voting was narrower. Nixon received 225 to 51 for Wallace and 115 for Humphrey. The late Senator Dirksen won handily over Clark with 298 to 107, and Governor Ogilvie went into office with the help (but only on paper in the mock election) of 203 votes to 198 for Samuel Shapiro. Of 960 students, 493 registered in '68 and almost all voted. The recent West campus high school vote brought out only 540 registrations from a student body of 850, and of that 540 figure, many did not vote. Nixon won 216 votes and McGovern 49; Percy 202 and Pucinski 51 for Senator, and Ogilvie 139 and Walker 123 for Governor. In 1968? 80 per cent of the juniors and 68 per cent of the seniors registered. They gave Nixon 253 votes to 79 for Rescue Squad Summoned To Free Driver The McHenry Rescue squad was summoned Wednesday evening about 6 o'clock to free David Wirtz of 3711 W. Grand avenue, McHenry, who was pinned in his pickup truck when it ran off the road and over­ turned in a field at 1308 W. Route 120, 2 miles east of McHenry. 'A witness told deputies he was west-bound on the high­ way. As he rounded a curve, he saw the oncoming Wirtz pickup cross the center line in front of him and travel into a ditch on the north side of the road. No turn signals were in operation at the time. Reporting officers said the pickup struck a ditch 30 feet north of the center line and traveled 96 feet before coming to rest upside down in a field. The vehicle apparently turned over several times in its travel as indicated by evidence in the field. Wirtz was ticketed for driving on suspension. Wallace and 107 for Humphrey. Senator Dirksen received 370 to 160 for Clark, and Ogilvie and Shapiroshared equally with 231 apiece. Word Of Praise Backfires For Candidate Newsman Minnesota, one of the last states to go into the Nixon- Agnew column Tuesday night, also brought into office one Walter Petersen, who became mayor of Hastings. Located south of the twin cities. Hastings is a city more than double the size of McHenry. Walter Petersen is the husband of the former Florence Miller, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben J. Miller of 709 Mill street, McHenry. His success would suggest a word of caution for newspaper people in extolling the virtues of local citizens in print. The story went something like this: Petersen's opponent was a newspaperman from Hastings who some time ago wrote in glowing terms of the many contributions of Citizen Walter Petersen in a feature article entitled "The Forgotten Man". It praised his work for the city as a councilman and member of the Plan com­ mission, among other con­ tributions. Apparently the story was forgotten by the newspaper man when he became a can­ didate, but not by friends of Hastings. After considerable scrounging, they came upon the article and used it in their campaign efforts. The result? Petersen,' a Republican, was a big winner in a traditionally strong Democratic stronghold.

I haven't seen him since school has let out for this summer's vacation. I really like this guy. and he's all I can think about. When we were in school this past year he told me that he really liked me too, but now I find it hard to be­ lieve. He hasn't gotten in touch with me, so I called him a couple of weeks ago and he said he guessed he missed me. Then I thought it would be fun to write each other over the summer. I wrote him a letter, but he never answered. I don't think I said anything that would have made him mad. . Should I wait until he gets in touch with me first or should I call or write him again? If you were in my place what would you do? OUR REPLY: Although "he's all you can think about." it , sounds as if he isn't thinking too much about you. Your boyfriend has possibly found another girl­ friend or is looking for one. And at both your ages, that's not a bad idea. He might have felt "tied down" to you or that he lost his "freedom". Give him this summer to find himself, and you should try dating other boys. Maybe when school starts this fall the two of you will get back together again or maybe not. That's a chance you'll have to take.
