MCC Board Accepts Plan To Select New President The board of trustees for McHenry County college held a special meeting June 2, for the purpose of discussing procedures for selection of a president. They discussed two alter­ natives. Alternative 1, to hire a search consultant at a fee of $5 to $6 thousand, was thrown out as being too costly. Alternative 2 was decided upon which in­ cludes advertising in educational publications, placement bureaus, Illinois community colleges, A.A.C.- J.C. Journal (American Association of Community & Junior Colleges), I.C.C.B. (Illinois Community College bureau), state community college offices and other ap­ propriate places. After an initial screening by a committee of three trustee members, the entire board will select five or ten top candidates to be interviewed. Although the board will appoint the president, faculty and students will be used in an advisory capacity. Gerald Smith, Woodstock, chairman of the board, stated, "Because of my strong feelings for the college and the com­ munity I would like to volunteer as chairman of the selection committee." Barbara Pautz, Crystal Lake and Lee Schup- pert, Crystal Lake, will also serve on the committee. After a lengthy executive session, Smith said the selection committee would meet as soon as possible to set guidelines and begin the task of selecting a replacement for Dr. James R. Davis. He continued by saying personnel within the college are invited to apply for the position. The next meeting will be the regular June 23 meeting at 7:30 in the board room in the Main hall building. HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS Phone Cable Uprooted May Be Your Own Pick up the phone before you pick up the shovel - the telephone cable you uproot may be your own, warns Illinois Bell. Whether you're excavating a building foundation or merely transplanting shrubbery, your digging can interrupt vital telephone service to hospitals, fire and police departments. "Woodstock, McHenry, Crystal Lake, Harvard, Marengo and Union area contractors and homeowners should call JULIE on 800-892- 0123, a toll-free number, before doing any digging," said Stan Jozwiak, Illinois Bell Manager. In Grundy, Kankakee, Kendall, Will and McHenry counties, a single call to JULIE will tell all major utilities that you're going to dig. JULIE is the Joint Utility Locating In­ formation for Excavators. Illinois Bell has more than 39 million miles of wire in un­ derground cable. It is prac- ticlaly immune to wind,snow, sleet and gnawing animals. But power shovels, trenching tools and even garden spades can do plenty of harm. In some cases, Illinois Bell will bill diggers the cost of repairing damaged phone cables. I V.A. NEWS j Signaling the start of changed payment procedures for GI Bill students, Veterans administration computers authorized only 26,000 education checks for payment on June 1--the lowest total in the 33-year history of the GI Bill programs. June 1 was the effective date of a change in law that decrees GI bill payments from now on will be paid after each month of training has been completed instead of at the start of each training period. Max Cleland, VA ad­ ministrator, said the agency computers will resume the normal processing of between 900,000 and 1.2 million GI bill accounts on July 1. He pointed out that since students now in training had already been paid on May 1 for the full month of May, their next checks-for the month of June-will not Sfe received until July 1. The new law, he explained, is designed to reduce VA over­ payments, which occurred when VA paid in advance for training that in many cases was never taken by the veteran. The 26,000 checks authorized for payment June 1 went primarily to trainees in programs where the prepayment of allowing is not involved. These programs include flight, correspondence, on-the-job and apprenticeship training. In addition to ending the prepayment of monthly allowances, the new law provides advance payments~at the start of a school term-only if a veteran applies for such payments, and the school agrees to handle the advances. Formerly, VA made these a d v a n c e p a y m e n t s automatically to all veterans in training. The VA administrator said VA was doing everything possible to notify veterans now in training and veterans who plan to start training this fall of the changed method of payment so they can plan their finances accordingly. He said VA plans to make maximum use of its work-study and educational loan programs to assist veterans in making the one-time transition to the new payment procedures.
