I West Shore Beach Connie Schmidt 385-7841 Basiles Visit Soldier Son In Germany Tom and Millie Basile flew to Frankfort, Germany, to visit their son stationed in the Ar­ med Forces there. Rich toured the German sights with dad while mom cooked some home meals for a crew of six hungry soldiers. Their stay lasted nine days and both experienced the European way of life. Rich will remain in Frankfort for eighteen more months before returning to the United States. Then flying on to Credenzo, Italy, Tom and Millie met with relatives for a family reunion. Millie's Italian Aunt who is 89 greeted them warmly along with many first and second cousins. They had never seen some of their cousins and it was indeed a great get-together for everyone. The picturesque countryside was enjoyed, especially the mountains they viewed by car. Naples was a beautiful city that excited Millie and their churches were magnificent she said. The weather there was fifty to sixty degrees and made their two weeks even more enjoyable. The Basiles would like to return to Italy next year, but for now they will be content to remember the good time they had on vacation. FREE BABYSITTING Attention ladies of our sub­ division! The Women's Auxiliary will meet at the home of Sylvia Wasicak Feb. 7 at 7:30 p.m. Everyone is invited to attend and bring along their kids.

You're all welcome, ladies. Tell your neighbor to come too! ASSOCIATION MEETS ~ Sixteen members of the community discussed our subdivision business at 5412 Orchardway Drive on Satur­ day, Jan. 12. Each second Saturday residents are urged to come for a discussion of per­ tinent happenings and events. Qur new president Boyd ftnaack conducted the. first meeting of 1974 and welcomed new board members. Fred Sch­ midt was elected social director and will head the committee for subdivision entertainment. Anyone in­ terested in being on the com­ mittee is asked to please contact him for assistance. Bring ideas for the calendar of events as it will be voted upon at the next meeting Feb. 9. The snowplowing topic brought about a heated discussion since many residents felt the streets were not plowed early enough. Workers had to battle the heavy snow on their way to work. Many mailboxes were not cleared away properly and some had to pay for additional snow removal. Remember to pay your association dues before the end of March. The more money the association has to work with the easier the year will be for all of us. Send them to the West Shore Beach Property Owners Association, Box 209 or bring to Helen Mohlman, our financial secretary. DOGSAGAIN Many still do not keep their dogs confined to their own property. If you do not have a fenced yard your dog must be chained on your land. The rabies controller will continue to check our area and let those of you know who are the of­ fenders. Fines can be imposed so please care for your pet. Other people do not like neigh­ bor's dogs near their homes. On ;asion dogs can get loose, but tl ; same ones are always r inning the streets. PERSONALS A speedy recovery to Bill Mohlman, Sr., who underwent an operation in Chicago. Hope you're feeling better now Bill! Marie Wegner's daughter, Agnes, from Elgin, stayed with mom during the peak snow period and mentioned she's never shoveled so much snow in her life! Stacey Schmidt and former resident Steye Erickson listened to Ella Jenkins per­ formance last Saturday at Cooper Kiddie College. Have a nice day! If only the solutions to our problems were as simple as solutions for problems of other people we know!! A man's character and his garden each reflect the amount of cultivation he has done. PAGE 17 - PLAINDEALER WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23, 1*74 Incurred Loss > Necessary For Claim By CTA Comptroller George W. Lindberg said this week the way is cleared for the state to advance money to the Chicago Transit Authority under legislation passed last year by the General Assembly as part of a Regional Transportation Authority package. Howeyety famdb^rg stressed that he would not approve payments under the plan unless money claimed is certified as an incurred loss, not an an­ ticipated one. M e a n t i m e , L i n d b e r g returned to Transportation Secretary Langhorne Bond a voucher requesting a $16 million loan payment to the CTA. The CTA claim, Lindberg said, included both incurred and prospective losses in the months of December, 1973, and January and February, 1974, which is not in accordance with the law. "The voucher we have returned does not restrict itself to losses incurred by the CTA," Lindberg said, "so I cannot honor it." • » Lindberg said his representatives met with those from the Department of Transportation on Tuesday to make his position cleai(. The legislature approved up to $29.7 million in loans to the CTA, $4.1 million for loans to suburban commuter rail lines and $850,000 for suburban bus lines. Once, big spenders used their own money. Full Gift Aid To Be Offered College Students o A recent grant has been awarded to Lake Forest college for interested students, outside the Lake, Cook and DuPage county area. A select group of students will be chosen to receive full gift aid in amounts up to their established financial need. This can be especially beneficial to a student who has a high need factor since he will be able to complete his college education, debt-free. To be eligible for this program, students should rank in the top 10 percent of the graduating class; have taken either the SAT or the ACT; and have completed an appropriate c o l l e g e p r e p a r a t o r y curriculum. They will be further expected to file for the Illinois State Monetary award, and to file a parents' con­ fidential statement. A representative from Lake Forest college will be at Woodstock high school at 2 p.m. Monday, Feb. 4, to talk with any interested students in the area. Any student interested should call the secretary of the Guidance department at Woodstock high school, in­ dicating a desire to have an appointment. A middle-of-the-roader can make enemies to the right and to the left. When Hubby opens the door of the car for Wifey, likely one of them is new.

College Aids In Forming Car Pools "One of the effects of the energy crisis on community colleges is that the stu-'-nts, all commuters, are a bit hesitant to use gasoline to attend classes. We are trying to alleviate that problem by of­ fering our assistance to students in forming car pools to the campus," said Bob Bar- tlett, dean of instruction at McHenry County college. Both part and full-time students who attended during tha,fall semester attended meetings to form car pools for the coming semester, ac­ cording to Bartlett. New students can contact the office of student activities to find out the names of other students from their same geographic area who will be attending during the spring semester which begins Jan. 28. In addition, the college is offering adult education courses in twenty different locations throughout the county so that many students can attend classes in their own town. "We are hoping that through these efforts the energy crisis will be less of a crisis for those who want to take advantage of the educational opportunities which MCC offers," said BarUett.
