"I would hope so (control the flow of evidence)...it was our case," State's Attorney Ted Flora argued. He also said the Jury was informed the state was seeking the death penalty and the Jury would be asked to make that decision. Flora said the Jury was instructed not to consider the penalty when arriving at its initial verdict. Cowlin said he could find "nothing in the record to show Mr. Albaneee was dtfnied due process" of equality under the law. He denied the motion for a new trial and also ruled the death penalty was constitutional, having been upheld by the United State's and Illinois supreme courts. After the sentencing, Kelly requested the judge to grant the services of an Appellate public defender to handle the Albanese . appeal because the defendant was • "completely indigent" and couldn't « afford legal counsel fees. Kelly explained that Albanese had a \ $105,000 Judgment standing against him in Cook county, indicating it was Zf a claim from former wife.

Flora told the jury the prosecution FRIDAY. Jl'NKZS. ISK2 Albanese was not possible and the defendant "shows no repentance." Albanese showed no emotion during the trial in Bloom ington or on We£ nesday when the death sentence was entered. The circumstances were reversed this year for Flora, compared with the last death-penalty sentence in McHenry county, when be was defense counsel in the 1970 trial of Frank Alex Hemenberg. The conviction against Hennenberg was reversed by the higher court in 1973 and he was brought back to trial in the county, was convicted of murdering Martin Zlogar in a remote area* of Chemung township and was sentenced to serve in excess of 100 years imprisonment.

MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from p«9« 1) The woman riding in the car got out and walked toward the store. It was then that the McHenry visitor noticed the shopper had only one leg and was walking with crutches. In her frustration, she commented, and not without sarcasm, "Maybe the good citizens of McHenry are exempt or all are handicapped". What she failed to acknowledge is that a physical disability is not always apparent, a fact that in no way ab­ solves the person from displaying a proper sticker. Because there is not a full un­ derstanding of the situation by most people, we checked with both the city clerk's office and the police depart­ ment.

But anger has prompted many drivers to want a moral issue to be dealt with legally just because it is so offensive to them. KAF COUNT'S HOUSE IN NATIONAL REGISTER (ContlnwMl from pf t) count came to the Chic ago area in 1916 from England. For some time, he lived in the Orchard Beach area, renting a summer cottage from Charles Laach. In late 1927, the Count returned to Europe and it is believed he was ill and returned to his homeland to die. He reportedly died in Austria on Jan. 28, 1928. Mrs. Weber said the record was unclear as to whether the count was accorded his title by birth ifttPP family or whether the title was a papal appointment. The count was named "Privy Chamberlain to the Pope" by Leo Xm. The honor was renewed by Plus X. Another aspect of the historic significance of the home is its ar­ chitecture and the fact it was probably built in antebellum times. According to the best information of the Historic Sites dhrtaion of IDOC, the Greek Revival style of architecture went out of fashion at the doae of the Civil War, meaning the home was probably built prior to 1666. , A letter from the state Conaervation it said the porch, which is a probably style of architecture, added in about 1870. The Webers have owned the Count's House since August of 1966, when they bought it from Robert Steuben.
