STUDY REVEALS HIGH COST OF BIKE ROUTES (Continued from page 1) off-street parking area. No amending ordinance was presented. Considerable time was devoted to discussion of the manner of handling a denial by the Zoning Board of Appeals of a request of the County board to amend a particular section of the zoning ordinance. The following substitution had been asked: "Single family residences, each one on a building plot or tract the frontage width of which is not less than 160 feet nor less than five acres in area, excepting any smaller plot or parcel of land recorded as a plat prior to the adoption date of this amendment". The proposed amendment is believed by John Quay, executive secretary of the McHenry County Plan com­ mission, to be conducive to orderly growth throughout the county. He also believes it would reduce the rural-urban conflict by requiring special zoning hearings for any proposed lots less than 5 acres. The appeals board expressed concern about the 160-foot frontage provision and it was generally felt the ordinance as drawn was not satisfactory and "did not solve anything". A zoning petition to operate a gravel pit east of the city, requested by Ray E. Peterson, was allowed for a ten-year period, with a five-year ex­ tension if he abides by all amending ordinances. Edward Buss of McHenry, chairman of the Finance and Salaries committee, noted that the tentative budget would be ready in October, with action to be taken in November. "If all requests for raises are granted, we will be $470,000 in the red next year", Buss concluded. Arthur Gottschalk of the Urban County council, in­ volving eleven counties, reported on current bills in the state Legislature. The council is organized to represent the best interests of the various counties in Springfield. McHenry Township Road Commissioner Clarence Regner submitted the new highway levy in the amount of $168,900, which was approved. McHenry's levy is second highest to Algonquin, which ran over $200,000. Money received through the levy will be used for such needs as snow plowing, grass cutting and some construction. In other action, the board approved the purchase of two radios at a total cost of $3,200 for the Civil Defense depart­ ment. Half of the expenditure will be reimbursed under a federal grant. W.M. Morefield, director of Valley Hi Nursing home, was present to explain the con­ sortium which will include McHenry county along with three others, for the purpose of cooperating with the Illinois County Nursing Home association in a study on nursing home procedures. The state hopes that all nursing homes may benefit from recommendations regarding personnel techniques and management resulting from the study. The County board approved the resolution, which provides that the funded study be carried out. Donald Doherty of McHenry was named to fill the unexpired term of Sylvester Tonyan on the McHenry County Planning commission. Willard J. Hogge, new supervisor of assessments, was introduced and addressed the board briefly.

A surplus from current taxes has been invested in short term cer­ tificates of deposit earning 10V2 per cent interest. Dr. Boos noted that the opening of school and the three- day pre school conferences were "extremely successful". A tabulation of the first day enrollment figures indicated an increase of ninety-five over the first day a year before. Approval was given to em­ ploying an additional Junior high teacher because of a heavy work-load in seventh and eighth grade classes. The regularly scheduled board meeting Sept. 25 will be held at Parkland school rather than the administration center. During the discussion of the budget, Member Lester Smith expressed the possibility of getting rid of Landmark school. Anna Cuda, also a board member, reminded that this subject had caused community- wide controversy several years ago, adding, "Keeping Land­ mark is one of the smartest things the school board has ever done". Dr. Boos commented that although the original building, now improved, is old, it has proved ideal for kindergarten because of the small rooms. A few Whispering Oaks residents were present and said they were happy to see a balanced budget. The board lawyer suggested OPEN AUXILIARY POLICE COURSE IN EARLY FALL (Continued from page 1) county taxpayers.

Stud­ ents angry at school authorities. Politicians angry at each other. People yelling, roaring at each other. Anger overriding reason nearly everywhere. Anger is of course justified at times. But even when anger is warranted, extreme expressions or actions seldom serve any good purpose. More often than not, anger causes retaliatory anger. Friend­ ships cease. Homes are broken. Apologies (if given) seldom repair the mutilation in human relationships. Common sense should tell us how important it is to conquer anger. What good does it do to blow off steam, if it disrupts blood circulation and either agg­ ravates or brings on ailments in body and spirit? And anger does just that! Ask your doctor! Or, ask a clergyman. He would probably say, "A soft an­ swer turns away wrath. . ." or - "He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty ..." A better life is in store when those Biblical expressions are under­ stood . . .GEORGE R. JUSTEN FUNERAL HOME, 3519 W. Elm Street, McHenry, 111. Phone 385-2400 Drug Charge Against Youth Daniel E. Schultz of 702 S. Riverside drive, McHenry, was charged by city police with possession of cannabis following a traffic stop Friday afternoon.

Monday evening while on routine patrol on Route 12 in Spring Grove, sheriff's deputies observed a "slow moving auto impeding traffic. Officers attempted to stop the vehicle to determine if the driver was having difficulty.

In attempting to obtain identification from the driver and his passenger, neither were able to communicate and ap­ peared to be intoxicated. Another deputy arrived on the scene and it was discovered the men were both carrying marijuana. They were taken into custody and the driver, Ronald Noval, 31, of 3636 W.
