P AGE 20 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11,1981 LIBRARY DEBT REPAYMENT O.K. (Continued from page 1) Library board would have received an additional $7,080. At a recent meeting, the council appeared amenable to a proposal which called for a decrease in the debt of $7,080 and a payment schedule for the remainder, $8,636.41. The board proposed paying $3,000 in the very near future, another $3,000 before the end of the fiscal year (April ?0. 1982), and the balance at the beginning of the fiscal year. This is more a case of principle that they pay back the debt," Pepping said, not a matter of dollars and cents." SHORES SEPTICS IN TROUBLE (Continued from page 1) Kastwood Manor. As the committee considered a 5,000 P.Ef. capacity in a disposal as the Shores' share as the possible starting point for planning, Heck said they could plan in stages and that 2,500 might be a good minimum to start from. They could add the greater capacity as needed later. He warned that it would not mean halving their costs, since much of the plant buildings and fittings would be sized to accommodate the added treatment facilities later. He noted that if further development occurred, some of the cost of the new facilities and collectors could be recouped from the developers. Not explored at this meeting was the possibility of building a treatment plant lointly with McHenry, with some sharing of costs. McHenry already owns a suitable site along the river. Heck said he plans to talk with McHenry officials about their needs for the hospital and development in the southeast area which could be served by new facilities. and negatives that emerged from the school election. In the beginning, there is a possibility of almost a new board in one year. McHenry District 15 is a good example. In the new process, five will be elected in 1983 and conceivably in the election process all could be new to the board. This will be corrected in time. But in spite of comments of a small turnout, actually the 13 percent county- wide vote was probably better than average because the polling places were brought closer to more voters. The process is new, and only the next few years Will determine how suc­ cessful the consolidation has been. KAF Honored For Service VETERANS J MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' REMEMBER 1918... (Continued from page 1) Another World War I veteran, Henry Rahn, noted that everything on his trip to Europe was done in groups of 14. "We arrived on the 14th, there were 14 ships in the convoy going over and they lost my records so I had to get 14 extra shots," he laughed. In addition to^the members of the McHenry World War I barracks, veterans of all the country's wars will meet at 10:30 a m Wednesday, Nov. 11, at the Legion clubhouse for the ob­ servance. Rahn, who is also the senior vice- commander of the barracks, said the barracks was one of the largest in the state and noted the passing away of two active and respected members, Harold "Pat" Owens and Howard "Pat" Cairns. Bernie Matchen, historian for the American Legion Post 491, will act as master of ceremonies. McHenry Mayor Joseph Stanek will speak briefly and Shirley Smith will offer appropriate vocal selections. The McHenry high school chorus of 70 young voices, directed by John Leighty, will perform for the veterans As a final tribute. Henry Rahn, the chaplain of the local Legion post and senior vice-commander of the World War I barracks, will offer "In Flanders Field." Political Corner Governor At Fund Raiser The state's problem is a shortage of Mrs. Hugh (Edna) Fanning is shown with the Distinguished Service award presented to her by the Aquin guild of Chicago for her work in public education. STAFF PHOTO-ANTHONY OLIVER Mrs Hugh (Edna) Fanning of 405 Shepherd Hill, McHenry, has been given the Distinguished Service award for 1981 by the Aquin guild of Chicago. It is presented each year to an out­ standing educator in public education. Mrs Fanning's award was made at a luncheon held at the Drake hotel, Chicago, following a Mass in Holy Name Cathedral. Her recognition was the result of a professional career that included work as director of personnel for the Chicago (Continued from page 1) election authority may group together not more than four contiguous precincts into one common precinct in a "clustered voting zone" with one centrally located polling place. We asked Mrs. Azzaro if she had considered this alternative, which she views dimly. She quickly told her reasons. One is that EICo (The Election Commission) has stated that the consolidation of elections is designed to educate voters to go to their regular voting precincts for all elections. She presented a pic­ ture of chaos by changing the polling locations for each election. She cited the case of one county clerk who tried this in the April election and said, "Never again". Apart from cost, there were positives Hil ls , Shores Floodplain Public Meeting Set Nov. 12 The Division of Water Resources of the Illinois Department of Tran­ sportation urges all residents of the Holiday Hills floodplain to attend a public meeting on the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

His ap­ pearance came as a late replacement for the scheduled - speaker, Congressman Philip Crane, whose mother,died.
