It was a test of strength for a. fledgling president and he would not back down. , It is now IMS and there is yet another struggle going on, albeit not so monumental. It would appear that what began as a labor dispute between the McHenry High School Teachers' Association and the Dist. 1S6 school board has degenerated into a power struggle, with the students caught in the middle. BOTH SIDES HAVE SAIIMheir actions are in the best interests of Dear editor: The . McHenry County Defenders gave the Veugeler family our Theta award for environmental achievement in 1972 for recycling-not for landfill matters as Patti Cane erroneously stated in a letter last week. Among haulers, the Veugelers continue to lead the county in recycling. The Veugelers opened a landfill near Crystal Lake in 1973 after receipt of the Theta award They designed a landfill to meet Illinois Environmental Protection Agency standards. In 1980, the Illinois State Geological survey monitored leachate migration at that site. The survey found that teachate had leaked through the clay liner into an unsaturated layer of the earth below the liner, but that shallow groundwater had not been contaminated. The landfill continues to accept waste. The landfill continues to produce more leachate. The point is that IEPA regulations do not prevent landfills from leaking, IEPA regulations also do not require landfills to be cleaned when they do leak. to Hun- to state law, must whether - this landfill decide: is "ao Veugelers have proposed build a new landfill near H-- - , tley.

The teachers, in a singularly brutal move, began the education has steadfastly reftised to go into binding arbitration FISH of McHenry needs the public's saying they will not delegate their authority to a third party. . * • - *T ' Meanwhile, the students of McHenry High Schools are receiving little of the formal secondary education required by law and other Graglindtor* Executive Director McHenry County Defenders educational institutions. But, they are getting superb instruction in the real-life workings of labor, politics and relations between people. : Both sides are unrealistic. THE TEACHERS SAY the district should assume 100 percent of She payments for health insurance. Come on, the real world ^businesses and industries (private sector) that do that are few and 4mr between in this day and age. > . The teachers also want at lepst partial reimbursement for callage •courses they take to further their education. This is a generally ^accepted practice in many businesses and other government bodies which, in many instances, encourage their employees to seek ad- irittkmal education. Perhaps the board should re-evaluate its stand ion the r. matter. f That leaves money. | THE TEACHER8 ARGUE that they have bitten the bullet during recent tough times and say the district is now in a position to repay ,the sacrifices. The district contends it can offer only so much .̂ without deficit spending. Unless there is substantial movement ̂toward resolution of the strike, binding arbitration may indeed be the answer. Perhaps, the contract negotiation schedule should be prevised so teachers don't start the school year without a contract There are a number of options open to both sides at the bargaining table. The fine art of agreement and giving in a little by both the teachers and the board is not a sign of weakness; it is a sign of good , compassion and a true desire to get back to the classroom.

Richard Wissell, county public health administrator, said he was pleased with the decision to take advantage of the new powers. "I think the primary reason is related to public acceptance and public impression of the EPA's ability to respond to citizen ^^^^^^^^more quickly. I think it's a good law." Tazewell County, in central Illinois, was the first county to enter into a local enforcement agreement with IEPA. A number of other counties are considering similar action, according to an IEPA control over potential problem sites. And local governments should be able to respond to citizens' concerns faster-something that lis important when it comes to .pollution complaints."

FJSH of McHenry, Inc., is the only organization of "instant aid" where such help can be obtained without filling out forms and waiting days for appain the cc itments.

Because it solicits and spends money for charitable purposes, the law required that FISH become incorporated as a not-for-profit organization and make annual reports to the I.R.S.

As McHenry Township Democratic Chairwoman, I recently Wd a township caucus. Hie week to file our nomination papers was Jan. l4-2t>. We filed on Jan. 16, since I was told previously fay our township clerk that placement on the ballot would be done by lottery, no matter when you filed. At the time of filing, I was told by the township clerk that this was incorrect and since the Republicans filed first, they would have the top position. ' Upon returning home, I looked in my copy of the official elec­ tion .. manual, where it said if there are two established there will be a held for position. I called the township clerk and notified him of this, so he could look it up in his copy of the manual However, he stated he submitted the nomination papers to the county clerk and that was how it would be. I then contacted the State Board of Election with my problem. They researched it and agreed a lottery should beheld. With that, our township clerk contacted me and said there would be a lottery for ballot position held Thur­ sday, Jan. 31 at 10:00 in the township offices. Lesson No. 1- It pays to know your election manual. The other occurence involved our county clerk. If you noticed recently, registrations to vote were cut off as of Jan. 21 countywide. Registrations are, by law, Cut off approximately 30 days prior to an electic I returned manual and on. to my election there was the O P t N f O S l R V S Y O U 6 D A Y S A W E E K FRAN'S HIDDEN CURL 1212 N.
