State Troopers On Extra Holiday Patrol While these two week­ ends suggest holiday cheer, parties, and celebrations to most people, troopers assigned to patrol the Illinois tollroad and all other roads across Illinois will be told to devote extra time to make Illinois roads safer. All sworn State police command, supervisory and specialty personnel, usually not assigned to patrol duties will be expected to patrol one full eight-hour day over the New Year's holiday, either Thursday, Dec. 31 or Sun­ day, Jan. 3. These specific dates were chosen because of the peak holiday travelers expected to be on the roadways. Illinois State troopers will be assigned to watch for certain violations over the two holiday weekends: 1 - Strict enforcement of the 55 speed limit. 2 - Establish a high visibility of patrol vehicles. 3 - Recognized drunk and drinking drivers. 4 - Enforce equipment violations on trucks as well as automobiles. These extra troopers assigned to holiday traffic will employ rader, vascar, and weather permitting, air speed checks. Captain Hugh S. McGinley, commanding officer of State Police District 15, concludes with this warning, "The Illinois State police will be out with all the personnel we can muster to protect those who can't cope • with the stresses of the Season, -- of their own accord.*' P \GE 13 - PLAIN DEALER - TUESDAY.

With this old world of ours going at a dizzy pace, we have come to the end of another year-absolutely the worst year in all history- according to the opinions of a good many of us. According to H. G. Wells, well known author and writer, once through 1932 we shall be on the high road to world recovery. Poor old 1931! It surely has been a battered year with old man Depression that we have heard so much about hitting it hard during the past twelve months. The ladies of the American Legion auxiliary went to the state hospital in Elgin, where they assisted in the Christmas canteen work for the World War soldiers as sponsored by the McHenry County counciT They were assisted by members of the American Legion, who helped distribute the gifts to the more than 500 patients at the hospital. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of January 1, 1942). A lovely wedding which was solemnized just two days after Christmas united in the bonds of matrimony Miss Betty Thennes and Mr. Frank Gende. The Rev. Clarence Thennes of St. Patrick's church, Dixon, brother of the bride, united the couple in marriage at St. Mary's church in McHenry. Application blanks for registration of motor vehicles will not be available for release to motorists until the latter part of January. Many drivers, knowing that the drivers' license must be renewed in 1942, have been requesting applications. Licenses now in issue are effective until May 1, 1942. Payments paid to recipients of the old age assistance law received $127,755 during the year of 1941. The tbtal payments during the year topped the previous year by $6,226. Payments were made to 473 this month. TWENTY-FIVE YEARSAGO (Taken from the files of December 27, 1956). Total fines for offenses investigated by local police during the past year have totalled $4,915, according to a report issued by the department. They were summoned for 107 accidents in which nine persons were injured. Mark Zimmerman, a senior in the local high school, placed third in a corn growing contest for students in Section 6 of the F.F.A. He obtained a high yield of 152.3 bushels per acre and ob­ tained a cash award. The Rev. Vincent P. Fish, vicarof St.PauTs mission in McHenry, was ordained to the sacred order of priesthood Dec. 21 by the Right Rev. Gerald Francis Burrill, bishop of the diocese . of Chicago at the Cathedral of St. James. Father Fish has been serving St. Paul's mission as its vicar since last July 1. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of January 7, 1972). Service by the new McHenry Area Rescue squad becomes a reality Jan. 10 at 8 a.m. An­ nouncement was made that after that time, emergency calls may be made to 385- 4414. The new vehicle is not an ambulance and will be used only in emergencies. Because there is only one vehicle, trips will be made only to McHenry hospital. The first successful jail break in McHenry county in recent years was ac­ complished when four in­ mates escaped from the McHenry county jail. However, their freedom was short-lived. They were captured the same evening in an apartment about two blocks from the jail. Also taken into custody were two male youths and a juvenile female who aided the prisoners in their escape. Deadline Dec. 3 J For Car Stickers Secretary of State Jim Edgar has reminded thousands of Illinois motorists that midnight Thursday, Dec. 31, is the deadline to display ex- on T3om- pany-owned and leased passenger cars (and motorcycles and mopeds) and license plates on miscellaneous calendar- year vehicles.
