I would like your opinioni>n this. The Plaindealer editor agrees to any title that serves the best interest of the community. Please call 385-4934 with your ayes or nays, and the* reasons for same. If there are no objections, "Lakemoor-Lilymoor" will give way to "Lily Lake Area' or ?? , LADIES NIGHT The Lily Lake Ladies league had their business meeting Wednesday night. Due to the equipment stored in the Lakemoor village hall, the meeting was held at Mrs. Marie Hyatt's home. The hostesses for the evening were Millie Narcarti, who brought the goodies, and Julia Kraus who helped serve. Bunco winners were Millie Narcarti first prize, Millie Nejedly second and Jean Dember third. Julia Kraus received a very useful booby prize. The ladies will be meeting at various places until the regular meeting room is again available. They were very appreciative of the use of Mrs. Hyatt's home. Again, an invitation is extended to other women in the area who would like to b e c o m e m e m b e r s . President, Helen Para may be called for information. SCOUTING OUTING Suzanne Rasmussen, with the Junior Girl Scouts, en­ joyed an outing at the Spring Grove Fish Hatchery, Monday, Nov. 5. This state facility provides fish for public lakes in Illinois and also for private ponds at a fee. The young ladies saw the development of the various stages of fish (from eggs to about six inch size) in the large tanks. There were also displays of the stages, with samples preserved in formaldehyde. A huge tree, dating back to the time of Abraham Lin­ coln, captivated the imagination of the Junior scouts thinking about the stories that tree could tell. Suzanne, on seeing the hundreds of mallard ducks in the area, now knows why there aren't many on Lily Lake this fall. CELEBRATION TIME Nov. 15 is the important date for Thomas Para and Billy Garbacz. Billy will be celebrating his sixteenth birthday. Nov. 15, Elias Betancourt adds another year. Another Betancourt, Victor, celebrates the following day. Nov. 18 is Marge Polinski's birthday. Betty Scott and D <vid Weber share Nov. 20. Anniversary wishes go to Gary and Phyllis Leake, who will be celebrating their third year Nov. 15. Have a great year! YOUNG CHURCH GROWING The } United Pentecostal church, the only church in our immediate area, has been the scene of five bap­ tisms this month. The first D person from . the congregation who com­ mitted herself to a life in Christ was Doreen Lent. The church now has thirty- eight members. Services are held Sunday at 6:30 p.m. with Sunday school for all ages at 10:45 a.m. A bible study is held Wednesday 7:30 to 9 p.m. Reverend and Mrs. Nolan Hilderbrand do not live in Lakemoor, but are here for all study times and services. The McCaulleys are among the parishioners who ap- p r e c i a t e R e v e r e n d Hilderbrand's ministry. NEW MOOSE MEMBER Edna Garbacz was enrolled in the women of the Moose, McHenry chapter, Nov. 6. Other active members from our area are Kathy Kelley and Lilyann Baker. Kathy, chairman of the committee concerned with library promotion at Moosehart, arranged for Margaret Karas, librarian at the McHenry Nunda library, to give a short presentation on the library today, and how it can be of more value to everyone. Following Edna's in­ stallation and the business meeting, creamed turkey ala Kathy Kelley was en­ joyed by everyone. FAMILY ADDITION Ross and Liz Curley have a new little lady at their home in Lilymoor. "Moon Flower" no less, an almost two year old Malamute, who is getting along nicely with old time male resident, Star. So far, Moon Flower has been staying inside while Star has outside residence. They enjoy each other's company when romping together, so perhaps one of these moons, we will be seeing more Stars? If you don't know where you are going, you may get someplace else. GOD BLESS WHAT S NEW Should teachers be required to pass tests in reading, writing and arith­ metic prior to employment? • Should Illinois schools spend as muchr money educating gifted students as they do those with han­ dicaps? Should teacher tenure be abolished? Should older age limits be adopted for beginning school? 4 These questions and a dozen more will be voted on by Illinois school boards Saturday, Nov. 17. The outcome of the vote will determine the stance of the Illin6is Association of School Boards (IASB). "School boards must express their views op these issues," says IASB Executive Director Harold P. Seamon. "The General Assembly is bombarded with pressure from groups that look out for the interests of everyone except students J and taxpayers. Each community, through its school board, must work hard to defend the public interest in education." IASB is a voluntary organization of school boards created to provide board member training and to help boards solve problems. Its positions are voted on in the form of resolutions submitted by individual school boards. Each of the 932 member boards casts one vote on each resolution. For example, a resolution suggesting that prospective teachers be tested for competency was submitted by Mundelein High School District 120, of Lake countyv The resolution would require basic competency tests in, reading, writing and arith- ' metic. A resolution urging the W If:! \ • >'••• '• . . . 1 administrators learn more about their duties and cope with special problems will cover such subjects as collective bargaining, school finance, powers and duties of school jjqards^ the problems of rural schools, ways to evaluate the board, dealing with snow, ways to improve teachers and ad­ ministrators, public relations, and many more. White House \ Dec. 1 Deadline To •. >•' . • " -• 'i, . -,t ' ;• v f * Apply For Fellowship State to provide funds for gifted students equal to the amount now spent on han­ dicapped students was submitted by Tolono Unit District 7, in Champaign county. The business session Nov. 17 is a part of a three-day annual conference that in­ cludes guest speakers and panel discussions on more than 35 topics. The meeting will be held at the Palmer House, Chicago. Guest speakers include Joseph M. Cronin, state superintendent of education; Zacharie J. Clements, associate professor, of education at the University of Vermont; Jacquelyn Mayer, inspirational speaker; and John Chan­ cellor, NBC newsman. Panel sessions designed to help board membero and Congressman John B. Anderson has reminded the Plaindealer that / the deadline for filing ap­ plications for White House - Fellowships is Dec. l. Requests for applications must be postmarked by Nov. 15, addressed to the President's Commission on White House Fellowships, P.O. Box 7737, Washington, D.C. 20044. Inquiries may be telephoned to 202-653-6263 or to Patricia Sanderson at Congressman Anderson's district office in Rockford at 962-8807. The purpose of the White House Fellowship program is to provide gifted and highly motivated young Americans with first hand experience in the process of governing the nation and a sense of' personal in­ volvement in the leadership of society. The program seeks to draw exceptionally promising young people from all areas of the United States and from all sectors of our national life--the professions, business, labor, government, the arts, and the academic world. Those men and women who are chosen as White House Fellows are full-time Schedule A employees of the federal government who work in Cabinet level agencies, the Executive office of the President, or with the Vice-President, for a period of one year. The program is not designed to attract people into the Federal service permanently. Most Fellows return to their geographic or at least their professional _._-_n__rrir..I^p Captain James Murphy, district commander for the Illinois state police, District 2 at Elgin, has released the C.T.E.P. (Concentrated Traffic Enforcement Program) figures for the month of October. The program utilized 574 patrol hours with 1,382 en­ forcement contacts being recorded. There were 338 violations for speeding, other moving violations, 156; and equipment and other miscellaneous violations, 871. Additionally, there were 12 motorists assisted, 1 accident investigated, and 5 criminal arrests. The 1,382 enforcement contacts in 574 manhours provided 1 en­ forcement contact every 24.9 minutes of patrol. C.T.E.P. was made possible through a grant obtained from federal {Authorities and the Department of Tran­ sportation. State police officers are asked to par­ ticipate in this program on their off-duty time and are compensated with the grant communities, where they can share their new knowledge and contribute to their nation more ably and productively than Ihey would have otherwise through a fuller un­ derstanding of the United States government. funds. C.T.E P's goal Is to reduce the number and severity of traffic accidents at specific locations and times where the Department of Transportation has in­ dicated from past - ex­ perience that accidents are most likely to occur. The C.T.E.P. patrol locations in District 2 were selected using Department of Transportation accident statistics in addition to the district commander and his respective staff'* recom­ mendations. During October C.T.E.P. patrols in District 2 en­ compassed specific problem areas in Lake, McHenry, DeKalb, and Kane counties. McHenry county roads covered were 111. 120 from Greenwood road to Lake county line; 111. 31 from HI. Rt. 120 to Kane county line; 111. 176 from 111. 31 to Lake county line. As the months go by, the state police will keep the public informed as to the progress of the C.T.E.P. program. Big Difference The principal difference be­ tween a man and a dog has been stated by some as follows: If you pick up a starving dog and ntake him prosperous, he will not bite you.
