Under New Formula Grade Schools Would Gain in State Support DuPage County New state aid for DuPage County school districts as proposed in the state legislature will mean a bonanza in added money for grade schools, but will not provide one extra penny for north DuPage high schools. The old formula for computing state aid to school districts had a maximum support level of $252 per student based on average daily attendance. Under the proposed formula the support level would be raised to $325. The new formula has the support of the influential state School Problems Commission, the Illinois Association of School Boards, Illinois Education Association, Illinois Congress of Parents and Teachers, and other educational organizations. Some educational groups are seeking more funds, but support of at least the $325 formula appears assured.

Both political parties have pledged support of the legisla- School in Furor Over 'Goof Balls' DuPage County Center Cass school, located at 83rd and Lemont, south of Downers Grove, was in a state of excitement last week about the reported sale of "goof balls." Concerned and alarmed, a parent contacted the DuPage County Sheriff's office to report the matter. Sgt. Melvin Lowe, county juvenile officer, was dispatched to the school in short order. HE WAS TOLD by a student that packets of "goof-balls" and "dope" wrre being peddled by two enterprising students for $3, $1.50 or $1, depending "on what the traffic would bear." Lowe found a boy "who would make a buy," he reports. Having made it he brought the packets to Lowe, and gave the sergeant the name of the pupil who was dispensing them in a surreptitous manner.

Sgt. Lowe "had a little talk with him," he said, and learned there was a second young "business man" dealing in similar i The boys shamefacedly acknowledged their acts "But they finally broke down and admitted that some of the packets contained crushed candy and were sold as The others were a combination of crushed candy and aspirin and were sold as 'dope'," Lowe said. THE SERGEANT and school authorities put a quick end to the business and parents of the pair promised to "make things hot for them when they returned home," Lowe said. Both were brought first to the DuPage County Jail in Wheaton, lectured on the law and warned about such activities. They claimed to have gotten the idea from a television program where they learned how to make up the little packets.

"I don't expect to see them back here again," Lowe said with a grin. (Z Six Indicted By Grand Jury DnPage Six true bills were returned Monday by a grand jury sitting In Wheaton. Among those indicted was a Chicago man known both as Charles Romame and Charles Albanese, whose scheme for selling stolen cars with counterfeit titles is now under investigation by the secretary of state. The grand jury considered that the sketchy information provided to them regarding the man's operations was sufficient to warrant his arrest and trial. Some of that information revealed that Kelly Motors of Bensenville purchased three cars from Romalne, a used car dealer, who provided "clear titles" to the vehicles.

WHEN KELLY Motors later discovered they were stolen, the firm went to the DuPage State's Attorney with the matter. Also indicted, for a third time, was Hobert J. Smith, Oak Park owner of the Travel- ure Travel Agency in Elmhurst. This time Smith is charged with having arranged an around-the- world tour for Mr. and Mrs.

Ray Moore, Villa Park. Included in the ticket cost was a stop-off in India for two weeks to shoot tigers. According to the complaint brought to the state's attorney by the Moores, the arrangements were made, but not paid for. THE MOORES paid the additional $1,917 and returned home, with tiger, but also with a complaint against the travel agent. Smith allegedly has tendered a check for $1,200 (with certain restrictions accompanying its acceptance) to the Moores.

They have not cashed the check but brought the matter to State's Atty. William V. Hopf instead. Smith has previously been indicted for similar difficulties in connection with his travel agency. FRANK HENRY of Aurora was indicted for a armed robbery of the W.

T. Grant store in Naperville on Dec. 18, 1964. Henry was arrested as driver of the car at the time of the alleged armed robbery. Ralph Martin Duda, 20, of Lyons, was indicted for burglary of vending machines from the Chicago Seating Co.
