One of them states that assisted housing developments will be dispersed throughout the county, and that high concentrations of such units in any municipality will be found unacceptable. Senior citizen developments of fifty units or less will receive a priority rating. Developments planned with all family units in one location will be found unacceptable if all the family units are assisted. Family developments with 30 percent or less subsidized units also will receive a priority rating. In regard to a resolution concerning the new 911 emergency phone number required by 1980, members asked who would be paying the bill. A 1 percent federal tax is due to be taken off phones, and there were suggestions that money generated in this way might be diverted to cover the expense of the emergency phone plan which is required throughout Illinois.

Action was taken to approve appropriating $40,000 covering initial costs for possible ex­ pansion or purchase of ad­ ditional courthouse space. This will include architect's fee and a survey. Long debate but no action concerned the feasibility of putting a new bridge across the Fox river between the villages of Algonquin and Cary. The location for such a bridge has brought objectors to various proposals. In this connection, the board has learned that only a small bridge over a creek at Hager's Bend, in the area of the proposed bridge, provides the only way in and out for some residents. Realizing the possibility of a bridge washout, the developer of a new sub­ division offered 40 feet as an exit for these residents if needed. When some members refused to accept this amount, stating that 60 feet is required, the discussion ended with no ac­ tion.

Men and women of all ages have decided to do something about that talent and the result is some excellent entertainment for theatre- minded folks in and around McHenry. Experience tells us that these people hardly make expenses. Few enter the theatre world with the intention of becoming millionaires, even on the professional level. As amateurs, it is truly a love of the stage and the desire to provide a few hours of pleasure for others. We are fortunate that so many of our friends and neigh­ bors have chosen to follow an avocation enjoyed by so many.

FLORENCE KOSIOR Former McHenry resident, '78 Crop Set-Aside Deadline May 1 "Even those McHenry county farmers who may still be un­ decided about planting a set- aside crop in 1978 should sign up in the set-aside program," Jim Luc^is an official of the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASCS) service said. Lucas said: "There's no penalty if set-aside participants decide not to plant a program crop, such as barley, wheat, corn, or grain sorghum. But, by signing up there is an assurance of program benefits for farmers who decide to plant set-aside crops." "The sign-up period ends May 1. The program calls for taking out of production one acre for every ten (10 percent) planted to barley, corn or grain sorghum and two acres (20 percent) for every ten planted to wheat for grain. Farmers who participate will be eligible for price support loans, target price and disaster payments. To receive more detailed information and to sign up, farmers should come to the county ASCS office in Woodstock. Applicants for ASCS programs will be given equal consideration without regard to race, color, sex, creed or national origin.

LIQUID PROTEIN DIETS The Food and Drug Ad­ ministration has warned the public that very low calorie diets, particularly liquid pro­ tein diets, have great poten­ tial for damage and should not be used without medical supervision. FDA is devel­ oping a mandatory warning label for liquid protein diet products that will say: "Do not use for weight reduction or maintenance without medi­ cal supervision. Do not use without medical advice if you are taking prescription medi­ cations. Not for use by in­ fants, children, or pregnant or nursing women."

School Leaders Speak Out On April Referendum On Saturday, April 8, citizens residing in District 156 will be voting in a bond referendum for the amount of $2.15 million. This money would be combined with a Capital Development board grant of $2.3 million, and revenue generated from the sale of East campus to con­ struct an addition to West campus. Should the referendum pass, East campus will be sold at public auction. McHenry hospital has already made an offer of $1 million. The proposed facility would house a comprehensive four-year high school which would ac­ commodate all District 156 students. If East campus were sold and all students were housed in a single facility, many school leaders say the advantages of a four-year high school program could be realized. The staff, administration, board of education, and local Citizens Task force agree that a four- year high school arrangement is superior educationally to the present two-two system in which freshmen and sophomores are at one campus and juniors and seniors at the other. These same leaders say one four-year high school; 1-Eliminates duplication in costs; administration, utilities, repair and maintenance. 2-Provides for continuity of curriculum...stronger, more structured programs. 3-Provides an equal, more educationally sound education for all McHenry students. This new facility would provide expanded space for much needed vocational programs. Since 61 percent of McHenry graduates end their formal education at the twelfth grade, good job preparation is essential, school leaders feel. Informative coffees have been established in many areas of the community. Board members will be present to state their points of view and answer questions relating to this proposition. Should a citizen desire more in­ formation, Supt. Robert Swartzloff of District 156 may be called at 385-7900. Those citizens who will be absent from the community on the day of the referendum may vote prior to the election by absentee ballot. An absentee ballot may be obtained from the office of the superintendent of schools, 3926 W. Main street, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Ap­ plications for absentee ballot may be requested by mail no later than 4 p.m. April 3. Ap­ plications for absentee ballot may be requested in person no later than 4 p.m. April 7. | Senior Hot Line { •J* M Instant Q. Is the Lt. Governor's of­ fice, as well as other state agencies, really aware of the many problems of senior citizens? Are they making an effort to let senior citizens know how to solve their problems? A. The following facts clearly demonstrate that state government is becoming more responsive to the needs of senior citizens and is more effectively communicating the services available for assisting the elderly. There has been an increase of more than seven times the number of telephone calls, letters and in-person requests for assistance at the two statewide Senior Action cen­ ters, operated by the Lt. Governor's office, during January and February this year. Cases reported in both offices in Chicago and Springfield totaled over 16,700 for the first two months of 1978, compared to the same period last year, when 2,360 persons were ser­ ved. The total number of telephone calls, letters and in- person requests for 1977 at the two Senior Action centers almost doubled, compared to 1976. We served over 23,500 seniors last year, compared to 12,950 the previous year. In effect, we have served almost as many seniors the first two months of this year as we did the entire year of 1977, without increasing the number of staff over the previous administration. The credit for this goes to SOFT • WATER RENTAL No installation charge NEW fully automatic softeners TWO year option to buy with FULL rental fee deducted ONE phone call can answer any questions per month RENT Amm PHONE 312-259-3393 SOFT Ront-o-Soft, a division off tho Arlington Soft Wotor Company, Arlington Holghts. Illinois *0004 Serving McHenry Area more efficient management of communicating the services of the Senior Action centers to seniors by my staff, as^well as to the assistance of the state departments on Aging and Revenue. Q. What, then, have you found out to be the major problem areas shared by senior citizens? A. The problems which seniors report most frequently to the Senior Action centers include tax rebates, such as the Circuit Breaker, housing, health, food and nutrition, transportation, and income maintenance. It is noteworthy that the Senior Action centers are staffed by senior citizens who have developed an ex­ pertise in problems confronted by the elderly and the ap­ propriate means and available resources to resolve these problems where possible. The SAC's are not referral services. Staff members take down the names, addresses and telephone numbers of persons who call for assistance and then make anywhere from one to three more telephone calls to find the solution to the seniors problems. Staff members then get directly back in touch with the persons with the problems and give them direct answers to their questions. Write or call us at Lt. Governor Dave O'Neal'* Senior Action centers at 160 N.
