Charles Percy cut the nbbon on a new Crystal Lake business Saturday, ft was the campaigning Republican's first ^ " Visit to McHenry County since ' the March primaries. < Percy, waging a fierce ^senatorial battle against ^Democrat Paul Simon, officially 'opened Howard Electronics .Saturday afternoon. * - Speaking to reporters, he went 'on the defensive about rstatements he made on the -school prayer issue. Last week, Percy told a gathering of Jewish voters that children of minority religions should "face reality" about prayers in public schools. He said the comment was an an­ swer to a statement made by Simon. Simon has campaigned against institutional public school prayer, Percy said, telling crowds about a Jewish student who had to leave a classroom when audible prayers were said. Percy said he did not believe children of minority religions should be "sheltered ' from the beliefs of the majority. He also responded to a radio advertisement condemming him for voting down rehabilitation programs for the disabled. « "The (radio) foots are ab­ solutely wrong," Percy said "I have supported steadily and constantly (programs for the) handicapped. Irs a red herring," he sajd. Percy's comments were made following a tour of ttie elec­ tronics Business. Among the federal, state and local Republican officials who also attended were U.S. 12th Dist. Rep. Phil Crane, state Rep. Jack Scnaffer (R-Cary), state Rep. Jill Zwick (R-Dundee) and Crystal Lake Mayor Carl Weh- de..

While . a few supporters showed up in Saturday's drizzle to see the senator, A1 Jourdan, chairman of McHenry County Republican Central .Committee, said lie expects a high voter turnout in next week's general elections. Jourdan said a strong push is being made in the final week of campaigning. This week, about 25,000 mailings, 60,000 newspaper inserts and numerous media ad­ vertisements will blanket the county, he said. Hie party is "gearing up harder, quicker" this year, compared to the 1982 cam­ paigns, because of the presidential race, he said.
