Wonder Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 /ncprporaf/on Meeting Held A very interesting meeting, dealing with the pros and cons of in­ corporation, was attended by over 500 concerned residents Sept. 8, in Christ the King church hall. On the whole, it was an orderly meeting with several speakers voicing their opinions on incorporation or annexation. The speakers included Jim Rachel, president of The Village of Wonder Lake, Joe Stanek, mayor of McHenry, A1 Collins, member of the McHenry County Board, Kurt Weisenberger, president of the Village of McCullom Lake, Gene Jakubowski, member of the McHenry Township Board, Dr. S.L. Ruggero, McHenry County Dept. of Health, and Art Tyrrell. Acting as narrator, and also speaker, was Peter Helios, Democratic Precinct committeeman. The main points of the pros and cons were printed on the front page of last Wed­ nesday's paper, but there were a few other points brought out at the meeting that I think are of interest to all of us. Mayor Stanek explained the procedure that would have to,be followed in order to annex by referendum. First of all, there would have to be a public notification in local newspapers stating the intent to annex. A court date would be set and a certain amount of time specified in order to get petitions of objection circulated and brought into the court. The second step would be a referendum voted on by the people stating yes or no to annexation. Gene Jakubowski stated that only registered voters in Wonder Lake could vote on the referendum. This would not include all property owners because some of them are registered elsewhere, such as Chicago, if their Wonder Lake home is only a summer residence^ Jakubowski also stated that any resident, registered voter would be eligible to vote even if he was not the home owner. Subdivisions within the 1% mile limit of the Village of Wonder Lake could also decide to annex among themselves without a referendum. The meeting came to an end hearing the results of petitions that had been circulated against an­ nexation by Emma Meier. She stated there were over 1,000 signatures stating they did not want annexation.

FOOTBALL INJURY Jim Wagner's dreams of being one of the stars on the Warhawk football team of Northwood Junior high school will have to wait until next year. After making it through the hard practices, Jim has been forced to quit the squad. During a recent practice, one of his fingers was broken so now it's splint time. Now Jim can always talk about his 'old football in­ jury'! BASEBALL PARTY On Wednesday, Oct 1, the Boys Baseball organization is having a party, whereby the profits made from the sale of T-shirts and sweat­ shirts will be used next Spring to purchase the minor league shirts which will be imprinted with the team name. A demonstrator will show the whole line of shirts she carries with many dif­ ferent sayings and pictures. With Christmas not too far around the corner, maybe some Christmas shopping can be done and at the same time you can help the Wonder Lake Boys Baseball.
