They watched part of the tulip parade and saw President Ford's daughter, Susan, in the parade. They also visited Windmill Island and explored a Dutch windmill, climbing six stories to the top for a view over tfte countryside. "500" CARD CLUB The ladies traveled to Woodstock to play "500" in the new home of Flora Carr. Clara Cristy was playing her cards well that day as she went home with high score; since Flora was at home, she just didn't pay too much attention to what she played and she ended up with low score. Of course, some of her misplays could have been because the ladies sur prised her so with the little house warming gift they took to her that day. A good time was had by all.

Cal Skinner, Jr. (R-Crystal Lake) has mailed letters to all mayors and village presidents, except to the mayor of Chicago, urging each to ask for council or village board support of Woodstock City Council's resolution urging the four suburban directors of the Regional Transportation Authority "to stick to their plans to Mock passage of the 1977 budget until the chairman, Milton Pikarsky, steps down." Woodstock Mayor H. Joseph Gitlin seconded the motion, "because the RTA does not serve this county...! am not aware of any benefits from RTA to Woodstock or McHenry county," he emphasized. The Council was unanimous in its voice against Pikarsky's role in diverting the bulk of RTA's expenditures to his former employer, the Chicago Transit Authority. "It's time for locally elected officials in the six-county RTA Brief, Very Brief Army gives up trouble some machinegun. Sadat asks end of Soviet pact. Ford drops Calloway as campaign director. Ban sought on drugs fed to animals. Israel to send peace pro posal to Kissinger.

McHenry and Will counties would be a good start "I would hope that municipal and county officials would also make a real effort to attend and testify at the budget hearings that the RTA is mandated by law to hold before July l in every one of the Suburban counties." the RTA opponent from Crystal Lake contineud "It may be the closest thing to new public transportation that our non-CTA served areas see for the next twelve months."
