Working with Mrs. Becker as vice-president will be Lou Marchi of McHenry. Mr. Marchi has been a very active member of the Recycling committee for the past two years. He is extremely knowledgeable in many areas regarding ecology and has participated in many of the educational programs of Defenders. Mrs. Lou Panning of Crystal Lake, who has served as Hospitality chairman and been active in the recycling program, was elected secretary for the coming year, and Dr. Don Chinlund, former chairman of the Gravel com­ mittee, will serve as treasurer. Eleven additional board members were chosen to wofR with the officers. These members are all individuals who have show special interest in the aims of Defenders and have expressed a willingness to work toward these aims. The new board members are Richard Hegner of Harvard, Membership chairman; Mrs. Nancy Loomis of Crystal Lake, Program chairman; Mrs. Florence Seda of Crystal Lake, Junior Defenders; Mrs. Anne Carroll of Woodstock, Recycling committee; Conrad Floeter of Crystal Lake; Legislative committee; Mrs. Rita Halverson, Newsletter; Willard Hadlock of Cary; Mrs. Sherry Anderson of Woodstock and Richard Lanyon of Cary. After the election a plaque was presented to outgoing president, Brian Koukol, commending him for his devotion and hard-work during the three years he served as president of Defenders. McHenry County Defenders was formed in 1970 by a group of concerned individuals who felt the need for a group to study and take action on matters of ecological concern in McHenry county. The intitial group has since grown to in­ clude more than 300 members throughout the county. General meetings are held during the year at which topics of par­ ticular concern are discussed. At these meetings an expert on the subject is brought in to add their knowledge to the meeting. Tfrfe public is invited and welcome at these meetings. Members of Defenders also attend city and county meetings, such as City Council, Zoning Board and County Board, and report back to the members. They also present testimony when issues arise that are of particular ecological concern. Defenders were very active in working toward the establishment of the Con­ servation district and worked actively toward the passage of the Board of Health referen­ dum last Spring. A Junior Defenders has been established in order to involve young people. Defenders also has a very active speakers' bureau, which will present programs to local groups on everything from organic gardening to the energy crisis. Mrs. Donald B. (Jan) Chinlund is in charge of these programs. Anyone interested in joining or who has questions regarding Defenders, please contact Richard Hegner or Lou Pan­ ning. Second Paper Drive Scheduled Saturday, March 31 "Thirty days hath Sep­ tember, April, June and November but not March, which gives five Saturdays this month. McHenry's second paper drive will be on that last Saturday, the thirty-first. Mark calendars for the thirty-first, and the last Saturday of every month. On that day, at tlje Market Place, starting at 9 a.m., newspapers, magazines and corrugated boxes, each tied separately, will be accepted. Books also will be taken, but the covers from the hardback books must be removed before bundling. However, remember that the best recycling is reusing. Check with children's homes, libraries, retirement homes, etc., to see if they can use the books. Only as a last resort, remove covers and Antique Show At McCormick Place March 23-25 The Midwest's fourth annual and largest antique show will open Friday, March 23, for a three-day run at Chicago's McCormick Place. There will be more than 150 exhibits to shop and browse representing antique dealers from throughout the United States, displaying thousands of items. The mile long exhibits will include useful and unusual items from ancient times through the Roaring Twenties. Glass, china, furniture, jewelry, dolls, objects of art, toys, home furnishings, and advertising memorabilia are just a few of the hundreds of items of interest that will be on display. A special added feature of the show this year will be ad­ vertising and country store items of early America. Show hours are: Friday, March 23, and Saturday, March 24, noon to 10 p.m. and Sunday, March 25, noon to 6 p.m. bring them to the drive. They can be bundled separately or with the magazines. 'Calls have also been received regarding paper bags. Again, reuse. Take a few shopping. Stores are happy to use the bags brought in. If there are too many to reuse, bundle them with magazines and bring them to the drive. If any group has ever had a paper drive in McHenry, or is interested in working on one in the future, please contact the McHenry County Defenders' representative at 385-8412. Create Joint Task Force On Federal Aid Rep. Thomas J. Hanahan, D- McHenry, and Rep. Thad- eus t S. Lechowicz, D- Chicago, Democratic co- spokesmen for the House Appropriations committee, introduced a resolution Tuesday (3-6-73) to create a Joint Appropriations com­ mittee to study the Illinois impact of federal aid cuts by the Nixon administration. "As we announced last week," Hanahan and Lechowicz said, "Illinois won't receive millions of dollars in federal aid we had expected for the period July 1, 1972, to June 30, 1973. "This is happening because the Nixon administration has written new restrictive requirements for federal aid for a variety of social service programs." The special joint committee proposed by Hanahan and Lechowicz would consist of six members of the Senate Ap­ propriations committee and six members of the House Ap­ propriations committee, with membership equally divided between the two political parties. They would be ap­ pointed be appointed by the chairman of the committees. The special committee would be charged with questioning the regional director of the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare about the impact of the social service aid cuts in Illinois. Lechowicz and Hanahan said the committee would also review alternatives for con­ tinued funding of social service programs. "Spending authorizations for the current fiscal year were approved by the General Assembly in 1972 with the expectation that a portion of tfye necessary revenue would come from the federal government," Hanahan and Lechowicz said. "When the Fiscal 1973 books are closed on June 30, state funds will now have to be used to pay a greater share of those bills than we expected. "With the knowledge now that federal support has been reduced -- and even eliminated for some programs - we have to make some hard decisions about what we are going to do in the next fiscal year begin­ ning July 1." ANTIQUE SHOW More than fifty antique dealers guarantee authenticity and quality of the items to be shown at the sixteenth Annual Fox Valley Antiques Show and Sale to be held March 23 through March 25 in the north and south rooms at Kane county fairgrounds, St. Charles. The show is sponsored by the Batavia unit of Woman's auxiliary of Community hospital and will be produced by the Chicago Suburban Antique Dealers association. Hours of the antique show are 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday. Luncheon will be served in the north room from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m. each day, and tea will be served in the afternoon and evening. 3718 W. Elm St. McHenry, III.

OF 3 Farmers Have Choice To Name Favored Program During the few days remaining in the farm program signup period, local farmers should look carefully at the choices offered by this year's farm programs and pick alternatives that best fit their individual operations, said Joe Getty, local farm program official. Signup ends Friday, March 16. "Both the wheat and feed grain programs offer alternate plans," says Getty, chairman of the McHenry County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) com­ mittee. "So, each producers should get details from his ASCS county office and then do some pencil pushing to see which program will yield him the best return on his land, labor, and management resources." Getty pointed out that both the wheat and feed grain programs have plans allowing producers to set aside land or to participate this year without any set-aside. Specifically, he pointed out, the feed grain program in­ cludes two plans. Under the basic plan, a farmer may set aside 25 percent of his feed grain base and receive payments, loans, and other program benefits without restricting his total feed grain acreage after maintaining his farm's set aside acreage and conserving base. The feed grain program also offers a zero set-aside plan with lower program payments and a limitation on total feed grain acreage. Under this plan, the producer need maintain only his conserving base and is then free to plant soybeans or other crops (other than feed grains or quota crops) on his remaining cropland. Alternatives under the wheat program are also different from those last year. A producer who signs up and maintains his farm's con­ serving base is eligible for certificate payments, loans, and other program benefits without setting aside any land. Or a farmer may earn set-aside payments in the wheat program by placing additional land in an optional set-aside, Getty said. Some producers who sign up for the feed grain program may wish to consider uses of set- aside before deciding between the 25 percent and the zero set- aside plan, the chairman ad­ ded. This year producers who accept a reduction in payments are allowed to graze or to harvest hay or silage from set- aside throughout the year. They may also plant an ap­ proved alternate crop and accept a payment reduction. "Producers who choose to utilize their set-aside for grazing, hay silage, or alter­ nate crops must notify the ASCS county office ahead of time," ASC Committee Chairman Joe Getty said. "Failure to do so can mean loss of all program payments and other benefits." He emphasized that notification must be given before grazing or haying is begun on set-aside land. Additional information, and help in working out details to determine which plan will best fit an individual's farm, may be obtained from the ASCS county office located at 1143 North Seminary (Route 47) Woodstock. in HOLY HOUR St. Paschal fraternity of the Third Order of St. Francis is sponsoring a Holy Hour Sun­ day, March 18, at 2:30 p.m. in the chapel of Queen of Peace friary, 774 S. Lake Shore drive, Lake Geneva, Wis. Following the Holy Hour is a Bible study and discussion in the library, during which refresh­ ments will be served. There is no charge, the public is welcome to attend both events. Beef Blade Steak is cut from the beef chuck. This steak con­ tains portions of the blade bone and backbone, and may include small pieces of rib bone. The lean is composed of the same muscles found in the blade pot-roast. It is prepared by braising or broiling indoors or out. For broiling it is best to have the steak cut thin and to marinate it, for these are less tender than steaks cut from the loin or sirloin. To broil, place marinated steak on the grill or broiler rack 4 to 5 inches from the heat. Broil at moderate tem­ perature for 7 to 10 minutes on each side, depending on doneness desired (rare to medium). To braise, brown the steaks, add sea­ soning and a small amount of liquid, cover and cook slowly un­ til tender (1 to lMi hours for % to 1-inch steaks; 1% to 2% hours for 1V4 to 2-inch steaks). For a tasty chip or cracker dip, combine finely diced ready-to- serve meat, ham or dried beef with sour cream and chopped chives. your week ahead BY DR. A.W. DAMIS Forecast Period: March 18 to March 25,1973 Many under your sign will be in social contact with persons who center everything around their own ego. Bluntly, take caution with new found friends. Material gains are in the general scheme of things. Most important, follow through with financial "hunches" that come your way. Ap­ parently, you will be a winner, of sorts! Devious activities seem to undermine your chart. Meaning? It's likely that you have be­ come a pawn in an associate's treacherous ma­ nipulation. Changes, for the better, are indicated by pre­ vailing stellar patterns. One problem! A sense of insecurity could be troublesome, during the transitional period. A member of the opposite sex, so it seems, will give you cause to analyze subtle gestures. Which is another way of saying; unexpected overtures are likely. Those surrounding you will be reflecting your very own mood. So, curb the urge to create a series of minor crises, for the sake of excite­ ment. There's a difference between opportunity and temptation - a big difference! Many Librians will test ther appeal to the other sex. So, stay in bounds. We're never treacherous, according to our own light. But, your chart indicates the inner urge to put a member of the opposite sex . . . through the acid test! Your present circumstance might indicate, otherwise. Nonetheless, you are entering a cycle that favors your making a distasteful de­ cision. Hear this well! Financial problems are begin­ ning to develop by imperceptible degrees. It's not a case of plans failing, but rather failing to plan! False starts, interruptions or postponements could, very well, thwart your job, project or tasks. Don't commit yourself to a tight schedule. Back off from a strong personality who is at­ tempting to overpower you. It seems as though you have been relinguishing both your will and opinions.
