LOCAL BURGLARS FAVOR GUNS, R CASH, JEWELRY CConitnnftri from page 1) A tew items oi clothing and three piggy banks containing about $35 in coins were taken from the Robert Goad home at 6712 Normandy, Spring Grove, sometime Monday. Entry was gained by breaking a basement window. Sometime Monday, the home of Robert Fuhler of 706 East boulevard, McHenry, was entered by prying open *the kitchen door. There was evidence someone had been in several rooms but it was determined nothing had^been taken. MUSIN" AND MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) Johnsburg roaa. ivir. rarfrey was contacted by an 6fficer, correctly describe the contents and the money was returnecl to him. Later, when a police em ployee met the girls' father, Bob Mortell, she commented on their honesty. Apparently they regarded it as nothing unusual and had not even told him what happened. K.A.F. LEAVES FOR STUDY ABROAD (Continued from page 1) selected for the study program only on her second application. She had also signed up in her junior year but was not for­ tunate enough to have been chosen. The pretty, vivacious young lady said her prime interest in going abroad is to learn more about another country by living there and to "gain another family". Another area of interest is becoming better acquainted with the kinds of fruits and animals native to the country, and to visit a plantation. She is especially looking forward to speaking Spanish fluently so that she may communicate through use of the language. She has had two years of high school Spanish. Another desire is to swim in the ocean. "I have never seen an ocean." she noted in preparing for her trip. Lark will be attending a public school of 550 students from seventh through eleventh grade. Her subjects will include Math, Philosophy, Religion and Spanish. In anticipating her arrival in a new country, Lark observed that she will probably be the tallest girl there. She is 5 feet 9 inches and said her adopted parents are only 5 feet and 5 feet 7 inches and the children range from 5 feet to 5 feet 4 inches. When she returns, Lark hopes to spend the half year until she enters college sharing her experiences with McHenry. She may then embark upon college studies aimed toward a career in Journalism or English with a goal of possible teaching on the secondary level. Miss Wheelock is the sixth ANIMAL SHELTER PROBLEM UNDER STUDY BY COUNTY (Continued from page 1) solved, but added that the people burglarized seldom get their property back. William Hubbard, who serves on the Public Safety com- mittee, informed the board that ' a format is being drafted showing the disposal of cases. He said the matter of punish­ ment has been discussed with judges, probation officers and state's attorneys, and some judges have told him they "must go with the statutes". Probation officers, he commented, feel their efforts have been "fruitful". Considerable discussion was held on cthe problem of the Sheriff's office no longer being able to handle rabies in­ vestigation calls after 5 p.m. when the courthouse swit­ chboard closes. The com­ munications room has so many other important calls that a recommendation was made to have an automatic answering service for nuisance calls. However, his office will accept emergency calls. The Health department provides twenty-four-hour-a- day service seven days a week on animal bites and com­ plaints. A study will be made con­ cerning the establishment of an automatic service. The annual report was submitted by Treasurer Audrey Walgenbach, showing complete collections and disbursements made for the 1973 tax assessment year. The total .collected and distributed amounted to $33,221,877.23. Willard J. Hogge, supervisor of assessments, gave an ac­ count of the status of 1974 work. The number of real estate change notices in McHenry township amounted to 1,816 and the listing appears in this issue of the Plaindealer. Tax bills are expected to be issued much earlier than last year. Two representatives of the Governor's office were present to inform the board of plans to open an office in Woodstock by March 1 for the purpose of assisting county residents with such problems as licenses, public aid, employment, etc. Further information and the office address will be given when details are completed. Approval was given to the employment of Warzyn Engineering Service, Madison, Wis., to take soil test borings on the landfill site. Although the bid of Warzyn was $117 higher than another firm, the board felt the offer to complete work in twelve days, compared to forty-five days by the low bidder, was important. The October sales tax was announced at $49,137. Before the meeting was adjourned, members and press were invited to two open houses, one at Valley Hi, where they enjoyed a roast beef McHenry student to go abroad under the American Field Service program. Four have gone for a full year, and two under a summer program. Conduct Cookie Sale dinner, and the other at the probation court office near the courthouse. The meeting was adjourned until Thursday morning at 9 o'clock for the discussion of other items on the agenda. PROPOSE NEW SCHOOL CALENDAR (Continued from page 1) that a cooperative effort will result. An evaluation report was made on the Bilingual- Bicultural program. There are about fifty-five Spanish" students in the district with language difficulty which hampers their progress in all areas. The program has made it possible to meet the needs of these young people at a minimal cost to the district. It was pointed out that the state has changed its attitude about the concept of this program. Originally, it was designed to make a person proficient in two languages and two cultures. In the future it will be designed to make one proficient in English only. As soon as a student demonstrates this proficiency, he will be dropped from the program. A review of Project Com­ mitment followed. This is a program intended to update the instructional material in all areas within five years. Although it was noted that the district's financial status has made this impossible, with reduction of the deficit and the state reimbursement in­ creased, once again Project Commitment is proceeding on a scheduled basis. Starting with the year 1971- 72, the program called for new material in various areas of study - Math, Reading, Social Studies, Language Arts and Science-Health - continuing through the year 1975-76. The focus of the first half of 1975-76 will be on Science, an area where material becomes outdated very quickly. It was noted there is a void of junior high school science offerings. The committee hopes to have pilot programs adopted for next year. In listing the preliminary 1975-76 budget plans, the ad­ ministration requested the board to tentatively approve the per student dollar allocation in order that plan­ ning within the individual buildings may proceed; also to allow the administration to bid supplies and order in the Spring. The allocation request would amount to a total of about $20,000 increase in ex­ penditures for the Education fund, and is expected to permit the district to retain the same purchasing power as in the present year. A motion to increase this amount by $10,000 was made by Mrs* Anna Mae Cuda, seconded by Dorothy Vick. However, before the vote was taken, Supt. Robert Boos observed that perhaps the extra money could be used to better advantage in other areas. After a discussion, the motion was withdrawn. The dates from June 16 through July 25 were confirmed for Summer School 1975 so that the director, Don Toole, can make plans. Again this year, state funding will enable 3 FOR 2 CLEANING OFFER FROM GEM CLEANERS SEND 3 PAY FOR 0NIY 2 SEND 6 PAY FOR ONLY 4 SEND 9 PAY FOR ONLY 6 LEAST EXPENSIVE GARMET IN ORDER IS FREE ONE.

A kindergarten materials fee assessment per student for 1975-76 was approved at $10. Currently this fee is $6, but the increase was deemed necessary to cover the cost of consumable materials used in the pre-reading program and for other areas of the program. The1 materials cost was reported at $13 for grades 1 through 5 and $17 'for grades 6 through 8, of which $3.50 for the upper grades is a towel fee. The Chamber of Commerce has been allowed its request to rent Parkland school facilities for the trade fair May 3-4. Again this year the board took action to request a Debt Service grant of $74,312 for fiscal year 1975. The first grant was calculated under the designated formula for prin­ cipal and interest payments due in fiscal 1974 on eligible bonds for capital im­ provements issued and sold after Jan. 1, 1969, and prior to Oct. 1. 1973. The original award allowed the district to reduce the 1973 tax rate for the Bond and Interest fund by about .10 cents The final tabulation report on the 1974-75 parent question­ naire was distributed To the question, "Are you generally satisfied with the education your child is receiving0" The answers were "very satisfied", 38.71 per cent; "satisfied", 51.50 per cent; "fairly satisfied", 7.75 per Cent; "dissatisfied". 1.61 per cent and "very dissatisfied". ,43 per cent Approval was given to the employment of Gary Swanson and Madelyn Wieczorek. aides at Parkland, Louis Zeoli and Libby Bensons. substitutr" bus drivers.
