Country Club road entrance, Woodstock, or St. Thomas Church, Oak street, Crystal Lake. The walk this year will be a competetive event with teams divided into Woodstock and. Crystal Lake groups. Persons from Woodstock, MeHenry, Harvard, Marengo. Crystal Lake, Hebron, Cary- Grove, Richmond, Wonder Lake, Huntley and all other communities of MeHenry county are invited to par­ ticipate in this walkathon which raises funds in the March of Dimes light against birth defects. Entry forms will be made available at schools throughout the county and at various other locations by Oct. 1. The forms are used to list sponsors who donate per mile walked by the person participating in the 16- mile walkathon. A number of MeHenry county organizations and agencies have given their support to the walkathon, according to Angela Burden, an advisor for the county's March of Dimes teen­ age program. Sheriff Art Tyrrell has ap­ proved the route and will provide a patrol during the ()ct. 12 walk. John Shay, director of the county's Civil Defense program, has arranged for volunteers to handle escort and radio communication cars for the event as well as auxiliary police to handle intersections along the route. The MeHenry County Fair board has given the March of Dimes use of fairgrounds facilities and the Crystal Lake Emergency Ambulance service will man a comfort station midway through the route at the Ellis Farm on McConnell road. Walkers may start in Woodstock and use the following sixteen-mile round trip route. Fairgrounds on Country Club road to Zim­ merman road, then McConnell road, via Country Club, to Hillside road and then over to Oak street at Illinois 176 and return the same way. Walkers starting in Crystal Lake will walk the reverse route. Refreshments will be rpovided at the one-fourth, one- half and three-fourths points, and at the end of the walk. Money trom two previous walkathons have helped to provide a $10,800 fetal heart monitor for Memorial hospital, Woodstock, a similar piece of equipment in excess of $10,000 at MeHenry hospital, nursing scholarships and several other related projects, plus $2,000 to Harvard hospital. Walkathon packets will be available on or before Oct. 1. Additional information may be obtrained from Mrs. Burden or co-chairman Mrs. Lynne Blumhorst in Woodstock, * * * * Losers should never bet.

Elgin, two laws dealing with restrictions placed upon youth being in public places after certain hours were amended. The state statue as it is now written says: It is unlawful for a person less than 17 years of age to be present at or upon any public assembly, building, place, street or highway at the following times unless ac­ companied and supervised by a parent, legal guardian or other responsible companion at least 18 years of age approved by a parent or legal guardian or unless engaged in a business or occupation which the laws of this state authorize a person less than 17 years of age to perform: 1 Between 12:01 a.m. and 6 A.M. Saturday; 2. Between 12:01 a.m. and 6 a.m. Sunday: 3. Between 11 p.m. on Sunday to Thursday, inclusive, and 6 a.m. on the following day. This law. which was originally passed in 1963 holds a parent, legal guardian or other person responsible for k n o w i n g l y p e r m i t t i n g youngsters to violate the law. Capt. Crockett said, "The other section that was changed involves the driver license of persons less than 17 years of age. According to this section, driver licenses issued to per­ sons in violation of the Curfew law are invalid for the operation of any motor vehicle during that time. Persons under 17, who violate curfew, would also be subject to arrest for no valid driver's license." Anderson Urges Future Limit On Government Pay Congressman John B. An­ derson has sponsored two bills to place limitations of future congressional pay increases 0 and also announced his support for President Ford's call to hold all federal pay raises this year to 5 percent, rather than the 8.66 percent proposed by the President's pay advisory committee. The President's recommendation would save the taxpayers $1.6 billion. Under the provisions of the two bills introduced Sept. 19. the issue of future congressional pay increases would be separated from the pay treatment of other top-level government officials in the Executive and judicial bran­ ches. A recently enacted bill grants automatic cost-of-living pay adjustments to top officials in all three branches. In Anderson's words, "The bills I am sponsoring today would treat congressional salaries differently in two ways: first, there would be no automatic congressional salary increases after this year, meaning we would be forced to separately consider all future congressional pay recom­ mendations; and second, no congressional pay increase could take effect in the same Congress in which it is voted. I think both of these measures are designed to insure that the Congress cannot duck the issue of its own pay in the future and will be forced to consider, vote on, and justify all future congressional pay proposals on their merits." Anderson went on to say, "There has been considerable criticism of Congress' recent • vote to provide annual cost-of- living increases for top level government personnel, in­ cluding members of Congress, who have been frozen at the same salary levels since 1969. My main concern in supporting that bill was the large number of federal judges and Executive branch personnel who were leaving government because the 48 percent increase in the cost-of-living over that period had eroded their purchasing power by one-third. Other federal salary increases over that period averaged 50 ^£r- cent. I hope by the legislation I have introduced today that I can further underscore that I was not primarily interested in increasing my own pay each year without having to vote on it. I think members of Congress should be forced to bite the bullet on this issue whenever it BOOKSELLER IN WOODSTOCK 110 E.
