Another aim of the twelve- mogth period ahead is to puMish an informational booklet as a Chamber project designed to assist newcomers to She area. Lane also ex­ pressed a desire to issue newsletters on a regular basis. He asked for the election of two vice-presidents, one to serve internal operations and the other for external matters. Mayor Joseph Stanek was present to inform the organization on progress within the city this past year. BREAK GROUND FOR CHURCHES (Qontinued from page 1) AUvfance, was the guest speaker. He talked of his personal delight in seeing the growth of the congregation and in taking part in this new step of faitlt. Alto participating were the Rev I Gerald L. Robertson, paster of the church, and members of the building committee. Each one took his turn' at the bronzed shovel fivep for the occasion by Giles 'ace.

These include the beginning of a new accredited Bible college program with both day and night classes. It is estimated that con­ struction on the new building will be completed in June of 1975. ^ COUNTY BOARD LEVY NEARLY $3 MILLION (Continued from page 1) ^ Piper requested that the county ask Governor Walker to designate this as such an area and to name NIPC as responsible agency to conduct water treatment management planning. He explained that this action, if approved, would guarantee federal funding. Piper said NIPC has the authority to control, to some extent, the method of solving problems that are federally funded. However, he added that should the Environmental Protection agency be responsible for. problem solving, NIPC would have no influence. Board Member Edward Buss of McHenry commented that many surveys have been un­ dertaken concerning the problems of the Fox river. He asked, "Why doesn't somebody do something?" The County board must make a decision by Dec. 20. A matter for long debate was the proposal to further reduce the number of committees on the board. After a lengthy discussion, a tie vote resulted and Chairman Walter Dean broke the tie with a "no" vote. He then addressed the group for the purpose of encouraging further discussion aimed at a more unanimous decision. Late in the afternoon, it was decided to table the matter for another meeting. The number of committees was reduced about two years ago from twenty-two to eleven. The current proposal was to consolidate two more, making the total nine. One purpose for the suggested action was to save money. The new Public Health or­ dinance, for many .months a subject of controversy, was adopted Tuesday. McHenry's four members were in accord and it was not required that Chairman Dean cast a ballot. Only one change was^noted in aToro aToro? Three of the many reasons a Toro snowthrower is the right one for you. Wide-Track Stance * Toro'8 wide-track stance and heavy-duty tires take most :of the credit for its traction ability. Toro's Heavy-Duty I machines are wider at the wheel base than most of i their competitors. The tires are real snow tires and are fully pneumatic-heavy cleat-type tires thatbite into snow. Pivoting Scraper Blade 1 Toro's pivoting scraper lets the machine ride over bumps without jolting-whether it's an uneven portion of your I driveway or chunks of ice frozen to the ground-unlike a fixed scraper that will make your snowthrower bump r and lurch, hard to control. Once over the bumps, the : scraper's heavy spring forces it back to the ground : surface to clean deep-in most cases right down to the £ pavement. Centralized Controls : As you can see, all of Toro's controls are located up near the handlebars to help keep you away from the f moving snowthrower parts. The obvious importance of £ these centralized controls is to help provide for your i safety-but there's another important advantage. Having T all controls within easy reach makes it easier for you I to operate your snowthrower. Free electric starter with 5 or 7 hoisepower I models. {Geo P. Freund, Inc. 4102 W.

Some members pointed out that this seemed unfair to a person who was ruled in court to have been correct. The change designates that the fee must be paid by all, but will be refunded should the person charged with a violation prove to the satisfaction of the court that he is in the right. The sole zoning action af­ fecting this area concerned the petition of the Alliance Bible church of the Christian and Missionary Alliance for a conditional use permit for construction of a church and other accessory buildings to be used for religious teachings. The property is located on the south side of Idyll Dell road. Approval was given. Ray Clemons of Marengo was named to the RTA advisory board. Re-appointments in­ cluded Raymond D. Brickley, Ray W. Bailey and Bernice I. Pihl, three-year terms on the board of Harvard hospital; John Shay, Civil Defense director to Dec. 1, 1975, and G.D. Mclntyre, assistant Civil Defense director for the same period. Christine Holms of Wonder Lake was successful in presenting the low bid for janitorial and cleaning services for the Court Services building, formerly the church building located near the new cour­ thouse. The bid was in the amount of $500 per month. McHenry township will receive an allotment of $2,946.72, largest for the county, from Motor Fuel taxes paid into the state treasury during September. This is for 74.67 miles of road. Nunda ranked second with $2,606.15 for 66.04 miles. The July Sales tax for the county was listed at $52,400.23. Two meetings have been scheduled for December. The first, to occur on Monday, the second, at 9 a.m. will be for organizational purposes. The second, an adjourned meeting, will be held Friday, Dec. 20.

Fair and impartial hearings on disciplinary matters, and 12. Termination interviews with personnel who resign to determine reason for leaving police employ. Murray also complained that some PCB suggestions and plans for the future made several months ago have not been implemented by ^police administration. One recom­ mendation is that the City Council immediately adopt the present Rules and Regulations of the McHenry Police department and then appoint a task force to edit, revise, modernize and amend these rules and regulations. Other recommendations made by the PCB which have not been carried out, according to the board, include main­ taining a general order book where procedures, policies and equipment needs, etc., are recorded in writing; set up police procedures for possible community disasters such as hospital, fire, tornado, bank robbery, plane crash or major fires; make statistical and comprehensive reports to outline needs in the patrol force to determine deployment of men and equipment to alleviate needs; require first aid training for officers; establish standard operating procedures in writing on answering various burglary alarms; establish in writing standard operating procedures for radio dispatchers an­ swering fire and rescue squad calls; improve follow-up on crime reports; establish "in- at Fernview road, southeast of McHenry.

Murray also cited the Duane Lange case and mentioned 'some facts he felt should be clarified. The PCB dismissed Lange from the police department in January, 1974, after the board spent more than forty hours listening to testimony from approximagely twenty wit­ nesses. Serving on the board at that time were Murray, Lawrence Huck, Jr., and Jack Oakford. Huck resigned and Oakford's term expired since that time. At a recent Council meeting, Lange's supporters presented petitions containing over 200 names asking that Lange be reinstated to the police department as ordered by Judge Richard Kelly in early October. The PCB decided to file an appeal on Judge Kelly's Veversai order to protect its statutory rights. A decision on whether or not the board will reinstate Lange or continue with its appeal will probably be announced about Nov. 25, according to Murray. A question arose regarding allegations made at a recent City Council meeting of political pressures on the PCB and in the Lange case. Murray pointed out that Huck and Oakford were both ap­ pointed by former Mayor Donald Doherty. He said when he was asked to serve on the board by Mayor Stanek, he said he would make his own judgments on the board. He further noted that the Mayor had never attempted to in­ fluence or interfere with the PCB Member James Blum voiced his agreement with Murray's statement. LAUD TOWNSHIP GOVERNMENT SERVICE (Continued from page 1 general high level of fiscal accountability of townships in Illinois." Mr. Lindberg stated, "I, for one, have great con­ fidence in the township form of government, and there never should be eradication of local township government." Attorney General Scott, who was the principal speaker at the banquet, told the sixty-fifth annual convention that it is necessary to keep faith in local government. Faced with the spector of Watergate and a continuing ^erosjon of public confidence in ^o\^rnment, all township of­ ficials and guests were urged not to give up the ship. Scott stated, "Whatever we do, we must not allow 'Watergate' and individual and isolated in­ dictments of political officials to persuade us that it really isn't worth it." Scott, his voice booming, said, "As town of­ ficials, you fill a need - a very important and vital need. You represent local government that is close to the people and that these people agree, that is what they want." At the divisional meeting of road commissioners, a new president was elected from the Northern Illinois township Highway Commissioners association. This area com­ prises six counties or 104 townships. John Rehs of Naperville township in DuPage county was elected new president and will serve on the state township officials' organization as director. This northern group presented seven resolutions for the bet­ terment of township govern­ ment. All resolutions were passed and adopted unanimously.

Set Recycling For Saturday Saturday , Nov. 16, recycling will take place in McHenry through the joint efforts of Defenders and the Student Council of McHenry Junior high school. Papers may be brought to the Market Place Shopping center on Route 120 from 9a.m. until 5 p.m.; bottles and cans from 9 a.m. until noon. A Defender represen­ tative may be reached at 385- 8512 for further information about Saturday's drive or to arrange to handle recycling in McHenry at some future date. Recycling is scheduled for the third Saturday of each month, but because the third Saturday in December is the twenty-first, and too close to Christmas activities, Defen­ ders have decided to move the date forward one week. Therefore, next month's recycling is being planned for Dec. 14, the second Saturday. DRUG-ALCOHOL CHARGES Four McHenry youths were arrested by sheriff's police Saturday evening about 9:30.
