Dixon has said that all registered vehicle owners should have received their pre­ printed renewal applications for 1978 calendar year license plates. "We have completed the -mailing of 5,775,488 pre-prints throughout the state," Dixon reported. "One is required for each vehicle before a license application is prbcesdfed. "It is likely that some of the renewal forms have not been received because of being lost, stolen, or failure of the ap­ plicant to report a change of address during the last year. Motorists who do not have their pre-prints yet should contact our Public Service center, Centennial building, Springfield." Deadline for receiving reassignments and special requests is Sept. 90. For 1977 plates, the Secretary of State's office processed 875,000 reassignments and 965,000 special requests. The first day 1978 plates may be legally displayed on a calendar year vehicle is Dec. 1, the same day plates go on sale over the counter at facilities in many banks throughout the •state. "By state statute, everyone may retain their current license number if application requesting reassignment is received by the Sept. 90 deadline. Filling of special requests depends on the combination being manufac­ tured and availability of specific numbers." Dixon said.

To finance the deficits of just the past 10 fiscal years--as well as to cover expenses of "off- budget" public agencies whose operations don't appear in the budget--the federal government will have been forced to borrow a total of $950 billion (one third of a trillion dollars) from the private money markets. Film Showing For First Girl Scout Meeting > ' * The Kachina Neighborhood Girl Scouts will have their first neighborhood meeting of the year Wednesday, Sept. 28, at Nativity Lutheran church in Wonder Lake beginning at 9:90 a.m. Neighborhood chairman, Judy Grauman, will present a film, "The Worlds to Explore" which will explain the new program in scouting for Brownies and Juniors that the neighborhood will be offering the girls this year. "The Worlds to Explore" include Worlds of Well Being, Worlds of People, Worlds of Today and Tomorrow, Worlds of Arts, and Worlds of Out-of- Doors. This new concept in Scouting allows a girl to work on her own level and ac­ complish as much as she desires, with the material gradually getting more dif­ ficult.

Betty Messer Incorporated Area Grows From 80 Acres To 260 In the past couple of months I've reported on some facts and places in the area I thought might be of interest to residents of the area. As you pass through the village of Sun­ nyside you'll notice it's growing fast. New homes are springing UP all over. With all the new residents in the area I thought it might be a good idea if I gave you a little background on our village. Sunnyside is located in the northeast corner of McHgnry county. It's just nortVfef Johnsburg and west of the Fox River. It was organized and incorporated April 9,1956. The municipality then had eighty acres within the village limits. In 1940, Alfred May planned and started development of the subdivision on the May property known as Sunnyside farm. This land was originally a portion of the estate deeded to Nicholas Frett by the United States government, sometime before his death in 1844. {Nicholas Frett was one of the first settlers in the area, a 344-2494 PAGE 19 - PLAIN DEALER - WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER M. Wl treasurer. If you are interested old and historic area with many in helping in either position contact Tina Betts at the above number. German immigrant). Many of the original officials still live in the area. The present village president is Raymond Nolan. Sunnvside has its own Police department under the direction of Chief Earl Kramer. Other members of the force are Sgt. Dyane Boike and officers Rick Kramer, Bill Boike, and Donna Mitchell. The village motto is "Growing and Progressing". That certainly describes the area today, ever growing and progressing. Subsequent an­ nexations have brought the acreage up to 26d +. SCOUT MASTER NEEDED Thursday, Sept. 15, the Boy Scouts signed in new members with a good number of boys turning up. A number of mothers were also registered as Den mothers for the cubs. Troop 454, Johnsburg, is in need of a Scout Master. Somewhere out there among our readers is a man who loves boys and has a strong desire to help these boys grow along the path of scouting, to teach comradeship, citizenship, and sportsmanship. If you are this man contact, Tina Betts, 653- 4511. Troop 454 Johnsburg needs you. The Troop committee is also in need of a secretary and BICYCLE REGISTRATION Sept. 10, the Sunnyside Police department held bicycle registrations for the area. The turnout was very poor. So Chief Kramer is going to hold another registration day in the next few weeks. I will post the date as soon as Chief Kramer sets one. CURIOUS? As you enter the village of Sunnyside on Wilmot road you notice construction of an oc­ tagon-shaped something on a pedestal. There's a lot of speculation as to what this unusual piece of construction will be. A space ship? . Well, let. me satisfy your curiosity. The unusual shaped building will be the new home of the Connerty Real Estate office. Mr. Connerty wanted an eyecatcher and something unique to house his offices. This building certainly is just that. BIRTHDAYS Birthday bouquets this week go to Rich Fredricks who celebrates his special day Sept. 20. Bill Perschke, Richard Backs, and Barbara Zimbrick all have their special day Sept. 21. And Jim Eichhorn has his day Sept. 22. Best wishes to you all for a happy day and many more to come. •A number of people have called to say they enjoy the little bits of local history I've found. McHenry county is an interesting happenings of the past. If you'd like to read more of the local trivia, let me know.

BUY THIS WEEKEND AND SAVE I John Chapman of Woodridge is one oi the homeowners in northern uu- nois who recently Installed a heat pump. HoWd he like it?' It s just been great--one unit that both heats and cools. It really does the Job." says John How tlie heat pump woita. Most heating systems heat DybumJng fossil fuels, like natural gas or oil The heat pump is diflerent. It doesnl burn anything. It uses electridty to mo^ heat from one place to the other--heat that already exists. Where? In the air around us. Even on cold, cloudy daysjhere s an abundance of heat in the air-solar heat energy that the heat pump cap­ tures and mows indoors.
