The death of a loved one is painful to survivors, but by taking tranquilizers, we only postpone the facing of our grief and interfere with the natural expression of an guish at the loss of a loved one, thus delay ing the readjustment that must be made. Tranquilizers should be used only in unu sual circumstances and under a doctor's direction.

Elm St. City McHenry, 111. 60050 Telephone 815: 385-1580 (Pub. June 13, 20 & 27, 1973) Set Economic Guidelines For School Meals Illinois Superintendent of Public Instruction Michael J. Bakalis has announced the establishment of the 1974 economic guidelines for free and reduced price meals for eligil}le school children in IlntioisSThe level of eligibility approved by Bakalis is the maximum allowable under current United States Department of Agriculture regulations, and represents an increase of more than ten per cent over last year's levels. The new guidelines take effect July 1. The level of eligibility for free lunches for a family of four is an income of $5,310 or less per year. Children may receive reduced price meals (20 cents or less for lunch) if the family's income does not exceed $6,380, again for a family of four. Illinois statutes require all public schools to provide free lunches to children from families whose income is at or below the established guidelines. Private and parochial schools may par ticipate in the free lunch program on a voluntary basis. Illinois currently has no statute regarding participation in free breakfast programs, but Public Comment On Judge Appointments Faces Rough Time State Rep. Cal Skinner. Jr.'s resolution calling for the Illinois Supreme court to require time for the public to comment on the qualifications of judicial appointments was reported out of the House Judiciary II Committee 11-7-1 over strong objections from some members of the legal profession that laymen should not be allowed to comment on the fitness of potential judges. i . ' •-- •- ------ PAGE 15-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 1973 a child eligible for free lunch is also eligible for free breakfast if his school participates in the breakfast program. Currently all schools serving free lunches to eligible children are reimbursed at the rate of 48 cents per lunch from federal funds plus an additional 15 cents per lunch from state sources. Reimbursement for free breakfasts is 20 cents from federal funds and 10 cents from the state. Dr. Bakalis said his decision to approve the maximum USDA levels was largely based on the positive influence good nutrition has on a child's ability to learn, but current in flationary trends and the high cost of living in Illinois were contributing factors. Skinner's resolution, which is entirely advisory and non- binding on the Supreme court, asked that the names of all who apply for judicial appointment be made public at least thirty davs prior to appointment', y l*S6 man iwo weens/re Public comment would be owners of trucks ahd other requested and considered by the appointing judges. "I just can't understand why anyone would oppose something that isn't even binding on the Supreme court that calls for public in volvement. The resolution only calls for the appointing jydges 'to consider' public comments; it doesn't say how much con sideration must be given." Skinner pointed out. "Every elected official has to undergo an extended period of public testing before gaining his limited term of office, so I see no reason why judges who are appointed for what usually amounts to lifelong jobs shouldn't undergo a short period of similar scrutiny from the public. "The argument was made by a lawyer that only lawyers were competent to judge other lawyers' qualifications. I would like to suggest that clients may have at least as good an un derstanding of the ethical and personal qualifications of a lawyer as his fellow lawyers. It should be emphasized that the consumer of legal services is not subject to any peer group pressure. Truck Owner License Mate Deadline Nears Less than two weeks^ remain othi second division vehicles licensed on a fiscal year basis to display new license plates, Michael j. Howlett, Secretary of State; said this week. "The statutory deadline for displaying plates for fiscal year 1973-1974 is midnight Saturday. June 30." Secretary Howlett said.

"I am hopeful that the General Assembly and the Supreme court will realize that it is time to let the people have a say in the judicial ap pointment process. Rep.
