On Jan. 25, the Foundation presented fifty-nine volumes to the McHenry County Junior college for their library. The books were valued at over $500. Making the presentation in the name of the Foundation was Mrs. Lori Huml of McHenry, who is president of the Educational foundation. On hand to accept the books were Dr. Jim Davis, president of the college, and Howard Dunlap, director of the Learning •Resource center. Dunlap said, "We are very happy to obtain these books and it pushes us closer to our im­ mediate goal of having 20,000 volumes on our shelves for our students and adults at the college." Dunlap indicated that he was very pleased with the selection of the titles made by Mrs. Huml. "We will be able to put some of these books on our shelves and the rest will be given to departments to be used as special reference material," said Dunlap. John W. Buckner, newly appointed executive director of the McHenry County Educational Foundation ex­ plained, "This is only the beginning of what we will do for the Junior college in 1974, and is probably one of the smaller things that we will do.

According to Buckner, the sole purpose of the Foundation is to help the Junior college obtain items, materials, buildings, etc., that the college is unable to obtain through local and state taxes. "We are somewhat comparable to a P.T.A.," said Buckner. "We step in when the Junior college is unable to help itself." The Foundation is not new to McHenry county as it*- was formed in 1966 as a non-for- profit organization, and was instrumental in raising funds to spearhead the various referenda leading up to the building of the McHenry County Junior college. "We expect to break ground for our new buildings soon," said Dr. Jim Davis. Buckner pointed out that any investments made to assist the youth and adults attending the Junior college are tax McHENRY PLAINDEALER deductible and can be written off at the end of the year regardless of the amount of the investment. The Foundation and the college will announce goals for 1974 at the end of January ana will begin working im­ mediately to reach these goals. Buckner said, "We have a broad base which includes all of McHenry county, and many people have already expressed their desire to help out in any way possible. We do not expect to have any great difficulties in reaching our goals since the people of McHenry county have always indicated a strong in­ terest in education," he con­ cluded. WEDNESDAY.

TAX FACTS Taxpayers filing the 1040A tax return have the option of using one of two tax com­ putation charts to determine their tax liability. "The problem," Roger C. Beck, district director for Internal Revenue Service for northern Illinois, said, "is that some taxpayers with an ad­ justed gross income of under $10,000 are using one of the tax tables which already has the $750 for each exemption figured into it, and then also subtracting $750 for each exemption. They are, in effect, claiming each exemptibn twice. "Taxpayers with an adjusted gross income of less than $10,000 should use one of the tax tables in the back portion of the forms package that applies to the number of exemptions they are claiming," said Beck. "However, if their adjusted gross income is $10,000 or over they should use Tax Rate Schedule S, Y, or Z on the back cover of their 1040A tax package, after first subtracting $750 for each exemption. For additional information on this or any other tax problem, taxpayers are urged to contact their IRS office by calling the toll-free number shown on page 7 of their 1040A tax package or page 2 of their 1040 tax package. WANTED Wanted old and new quilts, Also old tops. Bryce Hamilton, Tip­ ton, Iowa. 52772. 2-6 What's a "phone phreak?" Just another thief. A thief who steals long distance telephone calls, instead of snatching an old lady's purse, or sticking up a gas station, or stealing pension checks from mail boxes. But a thief, just the same. So said Stan Jozwiak, Illinois Bell's commercial manager, recently in talking about the breach of the law popularly known as "phone phreaking." A "phone phreak" uses various fraudulent methods, including electronic devices, to avoid payment for long distance calls. " 'Phone phreaks,' " ac­ cording to Bell manager Stan Jozwiak, "use so-called 'black boxes,' 'Blue boxes,' 'Red boxes,' etc., to circumvent long distance c.all-charging equipment. Or they may use bogus or stolen credit card numbers to place calls. "The crackdown on these thieves in Illinois is now backed up by a tough new law, which became effective Oct. 1, 1973. The law provides a maximum penalty of one year in jail and a $1,000 fine. "Many states now have similar laws ~ in the first half of 1973 more than 500 people were convicted of stealing telephone service throughout the U.S.," Jozwiak said.

The facilities provide needed beds to take care of youngsters needing hospitalization. The department on the third floor had included six beds, but the expansion doubles the number of beds and provides a separate Kevin Wright of McHenry recently left for Air Force basic training. Airman Wright enlisted as an a i r c r a f t m a i n t e n a n c e specialist, one of over 140 jobs now being guaranteed before a person enlists, according to SSgt Nick Panduren, the McHenry county Air Force recruiter. After six weeks of basic military training in San An­ tonio, Texas, Airman Wright will then go through a 12-14 week technical training school either in Wichita Falls, Texas, or Rantoul, HI. Airman Wright is the son of Mrs. Monica Wright, also of McHenry, and attended McHenry high West school. nurse's station for this department. A doorway and partition has been installed to control sound on the floor. Carpeting has been incorporated into the in­ stallation to improve sound confrol and housekeeping. Hanson said he is pleased the Woman's auxiliary has con­ tributed $25,000 to pay for this expansion. Dicing the past several months, the patient- load in the pediatrics depart­ ment has shown a steady in­ crease, verifying the decision made in early 1973 to expand this particular area for youngsters. Mrs. Marianne Whitehead, R.N., is the daytime supervisor of this department. While the nurse's station has its own call board from the patient's rooms, the wiring is also extended so that patients could ring a nurse at the main nurse's station on the third floor should any of the rooms be adapted for adults. The physical setup is such that this could be achieved without difficulty. John Bassi of McHenry recently left for Air Force basic training in San Antonio, Texas. Airman Bassi enlisted in the general aptitude area, one of four major areas. After six weeks of basic military training, Airman Bassi will then receive specialized training in a specific job in the general area, based on a personnel counseling session in basic training. Airman Bassi is the son of Mr. and Mrs.Victor Bassi, also of McHenry, and is a 1972 graduate of McHenry high school. Reduce Interest Rate To Moderate, Low Income People Farmers * Home ad­ ministration reduced the in­ terest rate on rural housing loans from 8.5 percent to 8.25 percent per annum effective Jan. 22. This is reported by County Supervisor Robert C. Becker who is in charge of the agency's Belvidere office. Loans may be made in open country and towns up to 10,000 population. Families with an adjusted income of up to $11,000 may qualify to purchase or build a home at the 8.25 interest rate. To determine adjusted family income the total family income is reduced by 5 percent and a further reduction of $300 is made for each child under age 18 living at home. The interest credit loans continue to be available at interest rates as low as 1 percent to families with a maximum adjusted income of $7,000 annually. Applications and inquiries may be directed to Farmers Home Administration, P.O. Box 217, Appleton road,at his office in Belvidere, IL. 61008. THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT CONSERVING ELECTRICITY Adjusting your thermostat- how it can waste or conserve energy. These days, it's wise to know a few things about your thermostat. How you use it can save or waste precious energy and money. Your thermostat works like this: When you set it at 68 degrees, it starts your heating system working. Once your home is warmed to 68 degrees, the system is automatically turned off. Insulation holds the heat inside your home as long as it can. Then when your home cools below 68 degrees, your thermostat starts the system reheating. Frequently adjusting your thermostat makes your heating system work harder than it has to. And that costs you money-- in repairs and higher bills. You'll save energy and money by setting your thermostat at 68 degrees and leaving it there. Another thing to remember: Every degree over 68 adds about three percent to your heating bill. If you keep your thermostat at 68 degrees instead of 72, you can save over 10% at the lower setting. While frequently adjusting your thermostat wastes energy, an occasional adjustment will conserve energy. So it's a good idea to lower your thermostat at night and when you're away from home. These principles apply essentially to all heating fuels-- electricity, gas or oil. We have a booklet that covers heating as well as other areas where you can conserve energy. We'll send a copy of "101 Ways to Conserve Electricity at Home" to you free. Just write Commonwealth Edison, Department AV, P.O. Box 767, Chicago, Illinois 60690.
