And with it comes the bitter cold that daily tests your car's cooling system. So don't delay...anti-freeze is your best protection. Visit your local auto­ motive dealer or service station and ask the attendant to check your pres­ ent anti-freeze. The guage he uses can tell to what temperature the solution is effective. Anything read­ ing -15 degrees or better is fine. Anything higher than -15 degrees is dangerous. If this is the case, drain or completely flush your radiator and add two to three gallons (depend­ ing on make and model) of fresh anti-freeze. This will fight corrosion and will also protect from engine freeze-ups. Brought to you by Jim Janicek SALES T0RKELS0N LINCOLN-MERCURY 4611 W.

IN AN EFFORT TO INFORM THE PUBLIC OF OUR POSITION, THE McHENRY HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS ASSOCIATION WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THE FOLLOWING POINTS: We understand and support the fact that the School Board must represent all the taxpayers of this community. However, we also strongly feel that the School Board has a basic responsibility to deal fairly with us as professional employees. We contend that this is a justifiable position; one that most people would expect of their employer. We believe that our requests are fair. The money required to support them is available. It would not impose any additional burdens on you as taxpayers. We also feel that our requests are legitimate - that we have earned them. Teachers have been critically involved in the planning and implementation of all new and revised programs within our school. We believe that this indicates a teaching staff that is both concerned and committed to the youth of our community. We urge interested citizens to call either our high school administrators or school board members if they wish to validate these statements. Although we are presently teaching without a contract, we continue to seek a settlement that is fair to all parties involved. We want to be reasonable, but we don't want to be used. We are willing to submit our requests to binding arbitration in order to obtain that goal. Consequently we believe the responsibility for equitably resolving this situation now rests with the High School Board. ...The McHenry High School Teachers Assn.
