Miss Malenius also learned cardio­ pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) techniques and, after becoming cer­ tified, launched a public education program to get others to take CPR classes. She became a member of the Easter Seals Advisory board in her area as a result of her work in raising funds for the handicapped. Miss Malenius' award was presented by Eli Lilly and Company and Kraft, Inc., sponsors of the 4-H health program. INCREASE SUBSTITUTE PAY IN GRADE SCHOOLS (Continued from page 1) The effective date will be Jan. 1,1981, the board indicated. Substitutes presently are paid $35 per day for short term assignements. The board approved a building committee recommendation to employ the Robertshaw Controls Co. to update the heating and cooling, control system at Parkland to reduce cost of operation. The contract will cost $2,745, and the company expects its adjustments will result in savings ranging up to $1,656 per heating season depending on a number of variables. Nancy Glosson and Kay Halverson, representing the District 15 Citizens Legislative Alert council, advised the board that 41 percent ($1,676,000) of the district's education fund budget depends on state aid and 10 percent ($407,000) is from other governmental aid programs (usually from mandated programs). As a result, elementary districts are heavily dependent on legislative actions. The report urged continued monitoring of the activities of the legislative bodies. Ms. Glosson and Ms. Halverson noted that they have testified before the state board of education Budget committee and the Illinois School Problems commission. In other business the board okayed a resolution authorizing the payment of custodial salaries from the educational fund for 1960-81 school year. These salaries are normally paid from the building and operations fund which presently is (insufficient to cover all needs The board accepted the low bid ($7,700) of PaytonChevrolet for a ser­ vice truck to be used by the tran­ sportation department. The cost is to be shared with High School District 156 on a 52 percent for District 15 and 42 percent for the high school basis because of the current usage of buses. In a discussion of current bills, assistant superintendent for operations, William Landis, pointed out the last water bill from the Eastwood Manor Water Co. for Hilltop school was $561 for 2Vfe months. This, he said, represented a charge of $3 per 1,000 gallons compared with 65 cents charged by McHenry city. The board was unable to take any remedial action. In other fiscal action the board ap­ proved repayment of an interfund loan of $60,000 which had been made to the education fund from the working cash fund pending receipt of property taxes. RTA PUBLIC H E A R I N G D E C . , 1 1 (Continued from page 1) increase that would have yielded $50 million annually. Those hearings were cancelled to allow the General Assembly time to approve an adequate funding package for public tran­ sportation. "If financial relief from state funding is forthcoming, the full range of fare increases and service cuts proposed would not be necessary," said Hill. "I do not recommend that we rely on that possibility, however. ' As time passes and as services continue to be provided at current levels and current fares, our potential deficit increases and our time gets shorter and our solutions more pain­ ful." Increases proposed are a 20-cent increase in bus fare and a 33-1-3 percent increase in commuter rail fares ef­ fective Jan. 1, 1981. If no additional funding is received from the state or federal government, RTA is then proposing another 20-cent bus far in­ crease and 33-1-3 percent increase in commuter rail fares that would be effective Aug. 1, 1981.

Crashes On Snowy Roads A McHenry area woman was left with a citation for failure to give aid or information following a two-car collision on Ringwood road last-- Tuesday. Laura M. Wharton, of 309 W. John avenue, McHenry, told police she was driving west on Ringwood road when the windows in the auto fogged so that she could not see. The car traveled into the eastbound lane and struck an auto driven by Lillian J. Hermes, of 4118 Wonder Lake road, Wonder Lake. Ms. Hermes said the driver of the Wharton vehicle stopped, checked for damage and then drove to Johnsburg junior high school. Snowy, slippery roads contributed to a two-car collision on Route 31 last Tuesday. Martha L. Pritchard, of 4412 Maple Leaf, McHenry, was driving south on Route 31 when she saw another auto stop for traffic. Ms. Pritchard attempted to stop but the car began to slide sideways and collided with an auto driven by Mary L. Mozzocci, of 33116 120th street, Twin Lakes, Wis.
