PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER FINALIZE PURCHASE OF LAKE BEACH (Continued from page 1) approval by the planning commission. „ In other Council news, it was determined by the Council that a new census is needed for the city a, A contract will be sigmd with the Census bureau in Washington in hopes that a population count can be completed this summer City Clerk Barbara Gilpin explained to Council members that the city loses $28 per person for each resident not included in the city population total. Mayor Stanek explained that the census will be taken in the summer so that college students living at home could be included in the count. It is estimated -that the population of McHenry is now between 9,500 and 10,000, an increase of over 1,300 since the last population counf was published in January of 1975. Mayor Stanek and Superintendent of Public Works Fred Meyer discussed proposed RTA bus routes in McHenry with the Council, in an effort to determine a logical centralized bus stop site in the city According to preliminary plans, the RTA is going to have three buses operating in McHenry. One will travel between McHenry and Woodstock, another between the city and Fox Lake, and the third between here and Crystal Lake. The bus will arrive at a bus stop in McHenry every hour on the half hour. All the buses will meet at the same stop to enable people from the different communities to board a waiting bus to travel to another city. Meyer explained that although the bus routes are not finalized, they will travel highly populated routes in the city and pick up people who desire a ride at intersections along the routes. He also said that a cen­ tralized stop would have to be large enough to accommodate all three buses and be located so all buses could meet there at nearly the same time. The Council decided that the Market place shopping center should be suggested as a possible location for the bus station. An ordinance was established giving the Superintendent of Public Works the authority to establish weight limits for city streets during the spring when the frost is leaving the ground. Many township and county roads are posted with restrictions in the spring in order to prevent unnecessary damage because of the soft ground. According to Stanek, the city ordinance is similiar to the county and township laws. Police Chief George Pasenelli presented a resolution to the Council con­ cerning funding for the telephone emergency number 911 system. Pasenelli explained that McHenry must have a plan of operation for the 911 system submitted to the state by 1980, and the program must be in operation by 1985. The chief stated that establishing the program would be very costly and the city should apply for funding from FRIDAY. MARCH 24, 1978 the state to help defray the cost of the program. The resolution, which has already been adopted by many municipalities in the state, asks that the state use the federal excise tax currently being charged on all phone bills to fund the program. The federal excise tax, which equals one percent of a phone bill, is apparently going to be discontinued in December, according to the resolution. The resolution asks that state legislators use that one percent toward funding the 911 program The Council voted six to two to pass the resolution, with Aldermen Bill Bolger and Jerome Rogers casting no votes. Chairman of the Parks c o m m i t t e e , A l d e r m a n Elizabeth Nolan, explained to the Council that preliminary specifications had been determined for the tennis courts to be constructed at Petersen park. At the suggestion of Mayor Stanek, the Council voted to authorize the Parks committee to finalize the specifications and advertise for construction bids for the project. It is hoped that construction of the two, possibly three, tennis courts would be com­ pleted by early summer.

Inside the garage, police found the articles taken from inside the home stashed in a corner near an open window. Value of the articles was estimated at over $1000. Upon examining the articles found, police discovered a jacket containing identification for Klassner. City police put out a county- wide bulletin indicating that Klassner was wanted for in­ vestigation in the burglary.

Diamond Head Construction company reported to Sheriff's police on March 20 that sometime over the weekend thirty 2x10x16 pieces of wood were stolen from a construction site at 4500 Hampshire lane in McHenry. Investigation into the in­ cident is continuing. Patrick Fallaw, 3301 E. Lake Shore drive, Wonder Lake, reported to police on March 19 that his car had been stolen sometime during the previous night.

Harlan, 608 S. Hilltop, told police that a quantity of jewelry, valued in excess of $1045, was taken from his residence.

SPEAK OUT ON ROLE OF WOMEN IN ADMINISTRATION (Continued from page 1) qualifications, two failed to answer. Of the two remaining, one failed to keep an ap­ pointment for an interview and the fourth did not qualify. Mrs. Alvary felt short notice was very often the reason for few replies. She asked male board members to consider how they would feel if they had been serving as long as she, but with all women members and all women administrators. There was no response, but Supt. Swartzloff did assure her that any advertisements for administrative positions will include a request for both men and women applicants. In the matter of substitute teacher daily salary rate, members changed the amount from $25 to $30 as recom­ mended by the administration. The district has been ex­ periencing a large teacher absentee rate this year and also considerable difficulty in finding qualified substitutes to fill the many temporary vacancies. District 15 recently increased the daily salary rate from $25 to $27.50, but the slightly higher figure in the high school district was agreed upon to compete with neighboring high schools for qualified substitutes. • In keeping with the Reduc­ tion in Force policy, resolutions were approved, with regret, for teaching staff dismissals of full time first year probationary teachers; full time second year p r o b a t i o n a r y t e a c h e r s ; teachers who have entered into contractual continued ser­ vices; and part time teachers, two of whom will be leaving.

After some discussion, Swartzloff said he would write letters of recommendation to be given each of the teachers who were being dismissed because of the reduction in staff. President James Althoff said he would concur with an earlier suggestion of Member Edward Neumann that letters of appreciation be sent to these same teachers. Following executive session, the board agreed to the list of three teachers, Dale Halgren, Pamela Schuttler and Norbert Wolter as certified staff members who will receive' contractual continued service unless notified sixty days before closing of school. Staff resignations announced were Roger Zawacki, Math at East; Lou Whitaker, now on leave but former P.E. in­ struct at -West; Dennis Spraetz, guidance counselor at East; and Lyle Luzum, Social Science at East.

The resolution authorizes the issuance of warrants not to exceed $200,000 in the Education fund and $300,000 in the Building fund. The board clarified the question of building rental rates which were recently revised. There were conflicting opinions as to whether the rates were approved on a four-hour minimum charge basis or a straight hourlv rate. It was agreed this should be on an hourly basis.

John Miles, the school's founder and president, has stated, "The unique character of the Bible institute meets a burgeoning need in today's society.

Their director, David Traeger, has planned their repertoire to give a balanced program of hymns, gospel songs and spirituals that are conservative in arrangement but bright and pleasing in style.
