MAKE VARIETY OF CHARGES AFTER NUMEROUS ARRESTS ( Continued From Page 1) arrested last week for driving while license was suspended after Deputy Sheriff Parrish stopped Lea's truck on Route 120 for having no tail light or rear license plate light. His bond was set at $1,000. He is to appear in court Jan. 30. Gordon Bauer of 5604 Bar­ nard Mill road, Ringwood, was cited for having no valid driver's license by Deputy Sheriff Anthony Olszewski last Thursday afternoon. The arrest was made after Olszewski stopped Bauer's auto for having no license plates displayed. Bauer produced evidence that license plates had been applied for but he was unable to produce a driver's license. When it was deter­ mined the license had expired, the charge was made against Bauer. His bond was set at $60 with court appearance scheduled for Feb. 17. A ticket for transporting open liquor in a motor vehicle was issued to Leonard Crago, Jr., of 7207 Seminole drive, Wonder Lake, by Deputy Sheriff Jacobsen. The arrest was made last Sunday evening after Crago's car was stopped on Walkup road, Crystal Lake, for having no license plates and a broken tail light. Bond was set at $50 and he is to appear in court Jan. 30. AUDITOR REVEALS CITY NEAR BUDGET ( Continued From Page 1 ) hall addition, it would be equipped to handle the 911 service. Pepping pointed out that should the McHenry police station be designated as the central answering location, any calls made to out-of-area locations to dispatch emergency vehicles would have to be paid by the city. This bit of information seemed to dim the Council's enthusiasm for the project. A recommendation by the Purchasing committee to buy five Remington High Standard shotguns for use in police squad cars at an approximate cost of $450 was approved by the Council. Permission was also given to advertise for bids on two new replacement squad cars for the police department. May 1 will be the specified delivery date. Alderman Jerome Rogers asked what the Council's standing was regarding uniformity of Police depart­ ment motor vehicles and equipment. Alderman Georgje Harker, a member of the Purchasing committee, replied that if uniformity was not reached with the purchase of two new squad cars, the Purchasing committee would recommend that next year at this time, the Council advertise for a fleet bid of five squad cars. Uniformity would then be guaranteed. Supt. of Public Works Fred Meyer informed the Council that the city had received a $35,000 grant to complete work on the Lakeland Park drainage ditch project. The city will pay $1,650 for mulch, seed and fertilizer to complete land­ scaping required on the project. Earl Walsh mentioned that Statement of Economic In­ terest forms were due in the near future. He urged that councilmen and other city officials submit their com­ pleted forms no later than Feb. 7. Alderman Jack Pepping, chairman of the Parks com­ mittee, announced that a committee meeting will be held Saturday morning at 9 a.m. to review final drawings for Petersen Park as presented by the professional park planning consultant. The meeting will be held in the committee con­ ference room at city hall. The meeting is open to the public. CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT HELP ON LANDFILL ( Continued From Page 1) on engineer's specifications before final approval of the request for road improvement. No action was taken on a request for a conditional use permit for the former St. Joseph Novitiate property near Ridgefield so that it can be used as an institution^ for mentally retarded adults from four townships in Cook county. The bo&rd regards its decision as important, and it has been unable to learn how long these patients would need to live in the county before establishing residence, A further burden on county facilities such as Valley Hi is feared should they/qualify by meeting the / residency requirements. Robert F. Olson, chairman of the Zoning and Planning committee expressed the fear that after a six-month period of time, legal requirements may force the county to assume responsibility for possible health care. Conditions at Valley Hi are crowded at this time, and Olson and others expressed a reluctance to add to the problem. After more discussion, it was decided to instruct the state's attorney to check further on the matter. M e m b e r s d i s c u s s e d housekeeping habits and the need for more room for storage following a visit by the Cour­ thouse Operations committee to the garage and storage area used by the Sheriff's depart­ ment. The visit followed a request by Henry Nulle, chief deputy, to the Public Safety committee for additional room for evidence storage. The committee report in­ dicated certain housekeeping problems should be taken care of before any additional room is granted. Nulle and an assistant state's attorney were present to ex­ plain the problem to the board Tuesday. Nulle said it is dif­ ficult to release stolen goods to the owner unless permission is given by the attorney representing the defendant. He said an effort is made to obtain a release of proDertv but in many cases the lawyer wants it retained for evidence. Board Member Cal Skinner, Sr., noted that in some states photos are allowed as evidence and the stolen items can be returned. Further study is expected on the matter. Ray Murphy's resignation from the board was accepted. He had submitted the resignation a month previous because of what he described as a conflict of interest. Mr. Murphy is a director of the First National Bank of Woodstock, which ' is a depository for county funds. Expressing regret over the resignation, Member William David Benrud appeared in behalf of the McHenry Rotary club and asked that March 22 be set aside for the annual Easter Seal tag day. His request was granted. City Clerk Earl Walsh was authorized to pay Joseph Frett & Sons the amount of $10,305 for the second installment payment on the new city hall addition. The first payment was $17,181. The remaining balance of $28,134, will be paid on completion of the project. A resolution was passed stating that the city will comply with all regulations of the Fair Employment Practices act in regard to all its oral and written agreements. The city must comply with the requirements in order to be eligible for federal funding grants. Prior to adjournment, Ktayor Stanek called an executive session for the purpose of discussing possible acquisition of property. No action was taken. , The next regular meeting of the Council will be held Mon­ day, Feb. 3, at 8 p.m. Hubbard questioned whether it 8 would not be possible to eliminate such minor im­ pediments through legislation. Member Thor Emricson said this is under study in com­ mittee at this time and legal changes would be forthcoming soon. A list of depositories was released. Noting that some are outside the county, Member Edward Buss of McHenry made an objection. T r e a s u r e r A u d r e y Walgenbach explained that she makes deposits in financial institutions that pay the highest rate of interest. At the time the investments were made, Mrs. Walgenbach said the out-of- county banks were paying 12 per cent; however, since that time local institutions are paying higher rates. Estimates of maintenance Costs for the county for the year Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, were released in a report by the Tran­ sportation committee. The total was $1,270,000, including $85,000 for snow removal. In addition, the board passed two resolutions, one for $5,000 from MFT funds to guarantee payment of right-of-way engineering costs, and the other for $10,000 for preliminary engineering and for compliance with the Federal-aid Highway act pertaining to bridge inspections and ratings. A resolution was approved, accepting the expansion of the McHenry County Planning commission's present general statement of policy to include "relative to storm water runoff control, flood control and protection of the ground water resources of McHenry county". One of the provisions of the policy reads as follows: "We believe urban development and redevelopment of land areas and other significant changes in land use affect storm-water runoff patterns as well as soil erosion hazards; all future changes in land use should be authorized, designed and implemented so as to retain and control storm water runoff and to eliminate soil erosion problems in conformance with the principle stated". A new zoning ordinance is expected to be completed a year from this next spring. The board heard that the first two- thirds of the draft is completed and hearings in all townships will be held, probably next autumn. The prime need for the zoning ordinance was reported to be because some developers play a village against the county in seeking a particular regulation that is of most benefit to them.' The county board feels it should have at least equal or stricter zoning requirements than in­ dividual villages or towns. In appointments, Harley, Mackeben of Huntley, Ernest Bates of Woodstock and Earl Schultz of Marengo were named to the McHenry County Regional Planning com­ mission. Their terms expire Dec. 1, 1977. Phyllis A. Koeppel of Algonquin was named to a five-year term to the McHenry County Zoning Board of Ap­ peals. She replaces Kenneth Winterscheid. Alex B. Sharpe of Woodstock was named to the same board to replace Mona Reynolds. His term extends to September of 1977. Ferris Brothers of Harvard submitted the low bid, which was accepted, in the amount of $21,514 for five police specials and one station wagon for the Sheriff's department. Delivery was promised in fifty to seventy days. The September sales tax was announced at $52,288.70.

A quarter of a million men and women who want to work are without jobs in Illinois. These things we knew, and when he told us "I don't pretend to know how to reverse our current economic decline overnight", we stopped reading. But we did look at the right side of the folder-type report, where the stamp usually is affixed. In his own handwriting *was Senator Percy's signature and the initials, U.S.S. Now we don't pretend to be up on these things, but somebody told us this meant we were paying for all those stamps that brought six reports to our desk. With this in mind we are taking one of them home for our weekend diversion. Sixty cents isn't to be taken lightly these days.
