With 6,629 of 10,888 precincts reported, Ellen Augustyn of Chicago topped the field with 1,281,654 votes. Two Republicans, Ralph C.

Easy win for Shapiro; Miller, Ebbesen and Barry victorious State Rep. Dayid Shapiro, Amboy, easily won a state senate seat in the new 37th District on Tuesday as he outpolled his opponent, Ray Scdtt of DeKalb, by 44,159 to 34,181, winning in every area exejept DeKalb County where he 45.3 per cent of the vofe. Lee County Shapiro about a to 1 margin and Bureau County voters chose him almost 2 to 1 over his opponent. Shapiro takes the seat in the new district which comprises territories in the 33rd and the 36th Senate Districts. Reapportionment in 1970 placed two sitting senators in the same district.

They were Dennis Collins of DeKalb and W. K. Davidson of Kewanee. Both decided not to run again, opening the way for Shapiro to make the race. His challenger is business manager of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Northern Illinois University.

No surprises were given by voters as they chose the three state representatives for the 37th District. They are incumbents Kenneth Miller, R-Ster- ling; Toby Barry, D-Ladd, and a newcomer, Joseph Ebbeson from DeKalb. Defeated was an aspirant, Charles Blazier of Kewanee. Under cumulative voting, three votes are divided between the candidates. If a voter chooses only one, that candidate gets three votes; should two be selected, each will receive votes, and if three are marked, each will get one vote.

Voters customarily mark ballots for one or two state representative candidates, causing their total votes to soar. Top vote-getter among the Record turnout at Ogle County polls ROE A record 18,933 Ogle County voters gave top- heavy victories to Republican candidates in general election. More than 78.5 per cent of the 24,101 registered voters went to the polls. Tallying the votes proved a laborious process with the final precinct, Flagg 6, checking in at 8:15 this morning. In only two races did Republicans fail to take about a 2-1 majority.

The biggest of these was in the gubernatorial race, where incumbent Richard B. Ogilvie outpolled Democrat Dan Walker, 10,130 to 8,247. Ogilvie trailed the ticket. MERLE ANDERSON In the race for Secretary of State, Edmund J. Kucharski, Republican, had a 10,904 total to 6,760 for Mike Howlett, Democratic standard-bearer.

Leading the GOP sweep in Ogle County, strangely enough, was not President Richard Nixon, as it was in much of the area. Rather it was incumbent 16th District Congressman John B. Anderson. Anderson tallied 14,451 to 3,745 for John E. Devine his Democratic opponent.

Only one county-level race was contested. That one found Republican Robert E. Personette defeating independent incumbent Ivan C. Elliott, BOB BRINKMEIER to 2,025, in the Coroner race. Morris M.

Roe was re-elected Circuit Clerk without opposition. Richard Caldwell, acting Attorney since the resignation of John Roe to make a successful race for the 35th District State Senate seat, was also unopposed. County returns showed the Nixon-Agnew ticket outpolled McGovern and Shriver 13,496 to 4,753. Republican Senator Charles Percy took a 13,176 to 4,651 edge over Roman Pucin- ski. In the Attorney General voting, it was William J.

Scott, incumbent Republican, Thomas G. Lyons, Democrat, 4,174. Republican George Lind- RICHARD CALDWELL berg showed a 10,934 to 5,774 edge over Democrat Dean Barringer in the polling for the new office of State Comptroller. Ogle Countians gave John Roe a resounding 12,397 to 4,809 edge over Democrat John Smith in the balloting for 35th District State Senator. In the voting for State Representative from the 35th District, Merle K.

Anderson, Republican incumbent, led the way with 17,026. Fellow Republican Harlan Rigney managed a 15,279 total, while Democratic incumbent Robert Brinkmeier tallied Democrat Richard Mulcahey trailed the field with Start recreation program Saturday qq senate seat The Dixon Park District Saturday-morning recreation program will begin on Saturday.

Courthouse winners Incumbent Circuit Clerk Harold Huffman easily won over his Democratic opponent Lawrence Morrissey by almost a two-to-one margin.

Unofficial returns gave Huffman, left, 10,053 votes to 5,663. Unopposed Republicans Patrick Ward, center, tallied 10,457 votes as attorney, and Robert Preston, right, incumbent coroner, received 10,651 votes. John R.

WASHINGTON (AP) Colorado voters have cut off funds fot the 1976 winter Olympics, thus sending the once sought- after games elsewhere. California overruled its Supreme Court on capital punishment and rejected a grow-your- own treatment of marijuana as voters around the nation spoke Tuesday on a host of state constitutional amendments, referenda and the like. After years of effort to attract the games, doubts began to grow in Colorado about the impact of the Olympics on the state treasury and the countryside. The ballot proposition voters heavily favored cuts off state money for the games at the already spent $1.9 million. The cutoff brings a halt to federal money, effectively sending the games elsewhere.

Lake Placid, N.Y., site of the first winter Olympics hosted by the United States 40 years ago, stepped in line as an alternate site. California voted two-to-one against legalizing possession and private not the marijuana. The California Supreme Court voted six to one to outlaw the death penalty, but voters decided to reinstate it. The U.S. Supreme Court has outlawed the penalty as it has been generally applied.

In other issues, Maryland voters turned down a plan for tuition grants to parents of nonpublic school students. New $1.15 billion bond issue for cleaner air and water rolled up 2-1 favorable margins. Voters in Florida okayed two bond issues to spend $240 million to buy environmentally endangered land and sites for outdoor recreation. Ballot propositions in Oregon, California and Michigan reflecting the rising uneasiness about property tax for support of education were defeated solidly. proposition would have cut property taxes stat- wide by an estimated $3.2 billion a year.

Increased taxes on sales, corporation, cigarettes and liquor would have taken up $1.8 billion of the slack, but the legislature would have been left to make up the rest elsewhere. It lost by a 2-1 margin. In Oregon, nearly all vocal interests opposed a proposition to ban the property tax that supplies 75 per cent of public financial support. The voters agreed by a 3-2 margin. In Michigan, one proposition would have banned all locally collected property taxes for schools with an order to the legislature to come up with an alternate means of financing public education.

A related proposition would have authorized a boost in the state tax. Both lost. Propositions in Michigan and North Dakota to lift tough bans on abortion in favor of termination within the first 20 weeks of pregnancy lost by heavy margins. 2 arrested, another sought in break-in OREGON Two youths were arrested and a third is being sought in connection with a Sunday break-in at the Ronald Swanson Jr. residence in Stillman Valley.

Charged with burglary by Ogle County Police were Russell Gipson, 220and James H. Wick, 19, both of Stillman Valley. father told Police he saw three youths inside his home early Sunday. Approaching the house, Swanson found the youths had locked a door barring his entry. Soon after, though, Swanson got into the house and said he saw the boys throwing items around and running in and out of the home.

He added it appeared as though the boys were in an intoxicated state. The younger Swanson, after contacting the boys Monday, told police all three denied taking any part in the incident. Judge Alan Cargerman issued warrants for their arrest. Gipson and Wick were released on $5,000 bonds each. A court appearance was scheduled for Nov.
