STATE SCHOLARS REPRESENT MCHS (Continued from page 1) Lake Shore and Wendy Wohnrade, 4724 W. Lake Shore. Spring Grove is represented by Steven Thelen, 112 Golf view. The State Scholars represent nearly every high school in the state and were chosen from the 31,980 students who entered the competition by taking the Feb. 5, April 2, or June 18, 1977, examination administered by the American College Testing program (ACT). All State Scholars will receive a certificate of merit from£ the commission which personally and publicly identifies them as having high academic achievement in high school. ' The Illinois State Scholar winner may qualify for monetary assistance through the Monetary Award program of the Illinois State Schoalrship commission. Moentary awards, up to $1,550 for 1978-79 for use toward tuition and mandatory fees, are based solely on financial need as determined by the ISSC need analysis formula. Moentary awards are applicable at public or private colleges, hospital schools of nursing, and allied health schools in Illinois. Financial need is evidenced by data provided by the student and his family in the 1978-79 Monetary Award application. Any student who is not named in the competitive Illinois State Scholar program who also is a permanent resident or citizen of the United States, an Illinois resident, and will attend an approved college, university, hospital school of nursing, or allied health school in Illinois in September, 1978, may obtain a 1978-79 Moentary award ap­ plication from his high school counselor or by writing directly to the Illinois State Scholarship commission, 102 Wilmot road, Deerfield, 111., 60015. For the 1977-78 academic year, approximately 92,000 undergraduate students are being assisted with nearly $78.1 million in monetary awards. BUSINESS GAMBLING RAID (Continued from page 1) Salvatore V.

Several of those arrested were charged with multiple counts of gambling and keeping a gambling place, because of those times when a state agent had infiltrated the games.

Every driver would do well to remember there are times when he is a pedestrian. Courtesy is a two-way street, so proceed with caution. They say being courteous is contagious.
