Three Sheriff's department squads stood by as (riant security guards kept watch over the activities of about 70 TENSION AT SUN PLANT (Continued from page 1) McHenry, was taken into custody after he allegedly caused damage to another car by beating it with his hands and feet. Bonds in each case were set at $35. The police reported that seven autos were damaged before the gates were closed and the crowd dispersed. Later that day, the crowds returned and shouts of "Scabs" and other epithets echoed in the cold air as new employees and some on strike who had returned to work left the plant at 4:30 p.m., according to a Plaindealer photographer at the scene. Plant employees had spread gravel earlier in the day for traction on the icy road entrance, but the pebbles were soon turned to another use. The pebbles provided ammunition for the picketers who threw and kicked the missiles against cars leaving the plant at the Valley View entrance. Many were new employees who were recently hired to fill permanent positions vacated by the strikers. A reporter at the scene said em­ ployees who broke the picket line to return to work seemed to receive the harshest treatment. -One picketer slammed his fist against a white truck shouting, "George - damnif, we're gonna get you." (It was learned Thursday morning that 'George* had called friends and requested a ride to work saying that the strikers. One young lady, afraid to leave the plant, did so with security guards walking beside the vehicle. No pebbles touched bar car. Signs read, "Scabs, you are taking food from our children" and "We will be back at work and where will you be?" were displayed to the employees as they left work. Even a small child among the strikers enjoyed himself as he entered the action by kicking stones against the cars. The strike by about 340 United Auto Workers started Nov. 17 after one-and- a-half months of unsuccessful contract negotiations. The primary points of impasse in the negotiations include a new wage structure, mandatory overtime, grievance procedures and a pension package. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) Hear), Mary Pander Weber and Catherine Miller.

These descendants still call McHenry home. School leaders planning for the re- graduates problem travelling down memory lane as they compare what constitutes education in 1961 with the recollection of tales told to them by their parents and grandparents. Program planners would be most happy if the oldest living graduate could be present for an occasion that will take its place in the history record book of the school system. TTiey are also interested in learning the names of the families with the most generations 9f graduates. The program will be brief, followed by a tour of the building, which includes life safety work mandated by the state. One of the special treats will be a look at the new kitchen and remodelled cafeteria. In itself, this is a long way down the path from the brown sack lunches the nine first graduateftcarfied to school. r - East campus is not elaborate but it is attractive and functional. It's an example of putting buildings of yesterday in a condition that will serve the purpose of today. KAF RECLAMATION PLAN (Continued from page 1) that motorboats would be allowed on the lake. Miller also told the board that part of the reclamation effort was slated to start this year." Neither Miller nor Grossman would stipulate at this time whether the recreation or camping facility would be public or private. The petitioners agreed to amend­ ments of thepetition requested by Ed Schweiger, ZBA chairman, and to tie the reclamation of the land to the plan as presented if the board would take into consideration a further extension of the conditional use permit and a possible reduction in the bond required by the county. ^ Originally, the petition requested that the permit be extended for the remaining seven years of the 1977 permit. Miller pointed out that this year's production at the plant was about half of 1979's figures and he doubted that the mining operation would be concluded in seven years. The petitioners asked that the permit ex­ tension be 10 years instead of the seven. The petitioners also asked the ZBA to consider lowering the county's bond requirement of $2,500 per acre. The bond is similar to a performance bond in that if the petitioners should default for any reason, the money would be on hand to complete the project. Attorney James Green, speaking for the petitioners, said that if a "reasonable bond were set" and the board would consider a 10-year permit, the petitioners would agree to the requested changes. The petition will be deliberated, but no more testimony taken, at a meeting of the ZBA at 8:30 a.m. Jan. 27. The ZBA will either approve or deny the petition and make a recommendation to the McHenry County board for a final vote. SET CHRISTIAN UNITY WEEK (Continued from pane 1) true that the word atonement sometimes signifies reconciliation for sin, reconciliation itself has as its ob­ jective the breaking down of barriers between God and man that arise from sin, thus exemplifying the true fruits of all Christians being one in Christ. Later in life, Father Paul James Francis befcame a Roman Catholic priest, and his society of The Atonement also transferred its allegiance from Canterbury to Rome. The society still is located on its original site on the banks of the Hudson river in Garrison, New York. It has not deviated from its founder's original dream of making the prayer of the Savior a reality A spokesman locally for the special week observed, "No gigantic, monolithic hierarchy is envisioned in at-one-ment, in Christian unity, but an intercommunion of all Christian churches, in which we learn from each other's particular contributions to the church into which all Christians are baptised. In written word, and in television, particularly inthe past few years, we have been able to see the riches of love, and dedication, and humility that religious bodies we previously knew nothing about, have given to the church, to each other, and to the world. "Some Christian bodies fear that Christian unity involves a giving up of their treasured beliefs and practices. In at-one-ment, in Christian unity, the only thing we give up is the sin of separation, which persists at a cost that cannot even be reckoned. In unity there is trength, and salvation, and love, and the peace of God which passes all human knowing." ' Memories Of 40 Years Recalled In observance of its fortieth an­ niversary year, the McHenry Choral club will focus on a theme of "Memories" when members present their spring program May 2-3. Rehearsals for the presentation will start Monday, Jan. 12, at 8 p.m. in the East campus music room and continue on a weekly basis. New members are welcome to join through Jan. 26. The 60-voice chorus has selected to use the theme in special sections devoted to musical settings from Jerome Kern's "Show Boat" and Victor Herbert's "Naughty Marietta". Invitations will be sent to original members of the 1940-41 chorus, past officers and accompanists to be present for the program. An open house will follow in the West campus cafeteria.
