More than 30 persons were injured, some seriously, and more than 20 small towns were hit by the destructive winds, rain and hail. Scores of homes, farm buildings and business places were damaged. Power and communications lines were felled, store windows bashed in and trees uprooted. The twisting winds struck about 5:30 p.m. east of Springfield near Illiopolis.

State police and weather observers sighted at least five tornado funnels in the laie afternoon. Within 90 minutes, the tornado rose and descended, then moved sideways as if on a checkerboard, over a path 15 miles wide and about 100 miles long to the Indiana lines. At least seven counties lay the-torm. They were Sangamon, Macon, Douglas, Champaign, Edgar, Piatt and Vermilion, where possibly another tornado raked an area in the northern section. From Illiopolis, the twister moved eastward in a line roughly paralleling U.S.

In addition to Illiopolis, other towns that felt the twister's fury were Niantic, Harris-town, Cerro Gordo, Hammond, Bement, Atwood, Tuscola, Tol-ono, Philo, Pesotum, Villa Grove, Camargo, Mur-dock, Hume, Cherry Point and Chrisman. Smaller communities in the twister's path also felt its impact.

Mackeben relinquishes his duties after being the presiding officer and head of the board, as well as head of the board of review, during the past eight years.

Mackeben's name was placed in nomination by Walter Dean, new supervisor from McHenry township who described him as having been a mdst efficient, fair and devoted chairman. Janak'a name was presented by Paul Rosenthal, assistant supervisor from Algonquin township and dean of the board. Rosenthal out that Algonquin is the largest township in the county, also having the largest assessed valuation of all property. He said the township has not had a chairman in 18 years and he thought it was time to be represented again. Janak took over his new duties Immediately after being congratulated by Mackeben.

Mackeben thanked the members for the fine cooperation and urged them to give the new chairman the same consideration.

Thea recent Valley Hi bond issue came in for some debate and questions from the members. Mary G. Yates, Dorr, asked that a complete report on the expense of the Valley Hi campaign as to the expenditure of money from income from the Class property be submitted.

She questioned one of the bills presented: She questioned the spending of funds derived from the Class property in Woodstock, owned by the county, for financing the campaign. Supervisor Raymond Murphy of Hartland suggested inmates of the home be briefed and those who are financially able to pay for their care be. transferred to private nursing homes. Howard Nehlig, superintendent of the home, was questioned on the matter and he agreed to submit a complete report at the next meeting. "I suggest the name of the home be changed back to McHenry county home and then probably people who can care for their relatives will hesitate in placing them in the home," Supervisor Murphy stated.

Assistant Supervisor Rosen thai said he would not vote for one dollar to be taken from the Class property fund to be used to help defray the expense of the Valley Hi bond issue campaign. Murphy wanted to be listed as favoring such a motion. In the county home report it said that plans are being made to drop the capacity of the home to 30 by September to meet state requirements. "What will it cost per person in the home after thatr one supervisor asked. He then said, "It looks like they are going to put the heat on those who voted against the bond issue." The board agreed to allow the county home committee and Supt.

But I doubt that I ever got as tired as my two sons got over the weekend on a Boy Scout camping trip. They returned home about 2:30 p.m. Sunday, and one of them crawled into the bath tub, full of warm water. After a while, I began to wonder, since there wasn't a sound' out of the bathroom.

There was one of my boys, sound asleep in what had become cold water. The other had flopped on the couch and fallen asleep.

It means the sheriffs department has chalked up another good effort in its drive to make crime unprofitable in McHenry county. If Sheriff Ed Dowd and his men can continue to crack cases in speedy fashion, maybe they will convince county residents and those from outside our county that this isn't a good, place to try to pull something shady. Dowd and his deputies have really piled up a good record in law enforcement during the four and half months they've been in office.
