PAGE 4-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 31, 1973 McCullom Lake Mildred Watson 385-3585 Village Board Now Meets Every Other Tuesday The village board of trustees will now meet on the second and fourth Tuesday of every month. Perhaps the change of days will encourage more residents to attend the meetings. Attending the board meetings will give all residents the opportunity to learn how the village government exercises its authority of direction and control over the actions of its residents. All meetings begin at 8 p.m. at the beach-house. HAPPY NEWS Mrs. Harriet McNamara has reason to be exceptionally happy these days. She is awaiting a visit from grand­ daughter, Mrs. Sharon Taylor of Sacramento, Calif., Satur­ day, Feb. 3. This will be the first "Mac" has seen her granddaughter in 22 years, what a reunion this is going to be. VILLAGE NEWS A street light will be installed at the corner of Orchard and West End. This will certainly come as good news to the persons living in that area, I am sure. Life sure is strange, when you are young the opportunity to see your heroes in person, close up is a thrill of a lifetime, but when you're older it's just an interesting event. Some of our senior citizens traveled to Crystal Lake to see their Chicago Cubs play the Crystal Lake Babe Ruth team in a benefit basketball game at the Crystal Lake high school. According to those attending, the most waited for players were Billy Williams and Fergie Jenkins. Fergie proved to be very funny on the court, much to the amusement of the fans. Other Cubs representing the team were Ron Santo, Jack Aker, Dan McGinn, Paul Popovich, J.C. Martin, Carmen Fanzone, Rick Monday, Kenny Rudolph, Randy Hundley and Glen Beckert. It was an ex­ citing evening, the Cubs won, let's hope they do as well during the baseball season. VILLAGE CLERK The clerk's office hours are Tuesday.

An­ derson, chairman of the House Republican conference and a member of the House Rules committee, has introduced bills to prohibit closed committee meetings and mandate a study of the House committee structure by the Joint Com- mitteee on Congressional Operations. In remarks prepared for delivery on the floor of the House, the Illinois Republican said, "The time has come to make this an open House and a Illinois Bell Asks Revision Of Phone Rates Calling its present earnings a threat to reliable telephone service, Illinois Bell Telephone has asked the Illinois Com­ merce commission for ap­ proval of revised rates. The proposed rate schedules provide for both increased rates and opportunities for customer savings. They include increased prices for basic local services, a new method of charging for connections, moves and changes of customer services, elimination of the one-time charge for color telephones. The company's annual revenues would be increased by $62 million, more than half of which would go for taxes. This amount is about 5 per cent of the company's total Illinois revenues, and 64 per cent of its Illinois intrastate revenues. Percentage changes in in­ dividual rates vary con­ siderably, the company said. The effect on the individual customer would be dependent on the services he uses, it ex­ plained. Today's request to separate from the $20.8 million rate application for increases in certain services filed with the Commission last November. Public hearings on that proposal began Jan. 10. President Charles L. Brown said the sole purpose of the November request is to enable the company to bring its ear­ nings up to the minimum rate found fair and reasonable by the Commission last August. "Last year we spent $322.1 million to expand and improve telephone service," Brown said. In the McHenry area, manager Stan Jozwiak said this included the addition of telephone switching equipment and several major un­ derground cable projects to keep pace with telephone growth. Brown said the company expects to spend $5 billion during the 1970's "to further modernize our service and to keep up with economic growth of the communities we serve."

The reason this House stands 'condemned' in the eyes of the public is because we have operated for too long with the shades drawn and the doors locked on the rickety rooms that are our antiquated committee system. The bills which I am introducing today will give us a new lease on life in the House by opening those closed doors to the public and by initiating the long overdue remodeling of our dilapidated committee structure." "I'm appalled by the fact that in 1972 the 92nd Congress conducted 40 percent of its business behind closed doors - a 4 percent increase over the previous year, according to a Congressional Quarterly study," Anderson said. "This clearly runs contrary to the thrust of the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970 which was partially aimed at opening up the committee Here & There In BUSINESS Bond Sales Highest In Fourteen Years The Bank for Savings and Loan Associations has reported record 1972 assets, deposits and earnings with total assets up 125 per cent and total deposits up 134 per cent. Arnold J. Rauen of 2721 Regner road, McHenry, bank president, said that assets on Dec. 31 totaled $239,038, 173, up 125 per cent from $106,284,768 a year earlier. Total deposits rose to $212,420,370 from $90,928,094 in 1971. Earnings rose 28 per cent to $456,536, equal to $2.94 per share, from $358,014, or $2.30 per share in 1971. Rauen said that the per­ centage gain in net income did not match the percentage gains in total assets and deposits because net income in 1972 was fully taxed while net income in 1971 benefited from tax credits. "A more meaningful com­ parison is pre-tax income, which totaled $857,928 in 1972, up 122 per cent over 1971 pre­ tax income of $385,015," Rauen said. "Last year's performance enabled the Bank for Savings and Loan Associations to retain its title as the fastest growing commercial bank in the United States." Rauen said the spectacular growth achieved in 1972 resulted from the bank's "unique position in the savings "id loan industry. An Act of Congress designates all deposits in our bank as regulatory liquidity," Rauen said. "We are the only private commercial bank in the nation performing a central reserve function for the savings and loan industry."

The bill I am in-} troducing today would require! that all House committee meetings be open unless committee votes in ope» session to close a meeting for national security or personal4 privacy reasons." \ Anderson explained that his bill to mandate the Joint Committee on Congressional^ Operations to study the House committee structure was being offered as an alternative to thS Boiling-Martin resolution td create a $1.5 million select committee for those purposes: In Anderson's words, 'Wei created the Joint committee with the 1970 Reorganization Act to study the organization of Congress with a view to strengthening the legislative branch and streamlining its operations; let's allow it to do just that. It makes much more sense to conduct such a study through the Joint committee since any restructuring of the committee system will have td be in concert with Senate ef­ forts to do the same. If the House and Senate do not reorganize their committee systems along parallel lines, they may end up working at cross-purposes under confusing conditions." Anderson noted that a Senate jresolution had already been introduced requesting such a study by the Joint committee.
