Letter to the Editor Teachers Have Not Agreed on Contract
August 13, 1973 To the Editor:
With the scheduled start erf school last upon us I thdnk fche community shouid be aware that there has been no cciitract agreement between the BoaiTl of Education and the teachers, represented by the Huntley Educa¬ tion Association. The Board has ai-bitraiily set a peixcnlage raise for all the employees of District 1.18, oxc-pt the school administrators to whom larger increases were aw«ixl- cd. Tho Board ba.s recently at- teiiiptpd to initimidate tibe teniux^l tcocliers into signing an individual contract reflecting the imposed per- eentage rai.se. This despite the fact that the Illinois School Code pro¬ vides, and the Superintendent of Pub¬ lic Instruction has held, that tenure teachers are not required to sipn annual contracts. The Board has re¬ fused to recognize on x>aper your teachers' professionid associaition This despite the fact that oCher em¬ ployees in our tvation received this fundameivtay rights 30 or 40 years ago and most other teachrs In Mc¬ Henry County have achieved this right in the last few years. The Board consistenitly refuses to reco^. nize our fine sohool nurse as the profession^ she is and reward her

Prevocational skills will examine concepts ranging from the beginning development of occupational aware¬ ness to the development of personal vocational attitudes. Language Arts will emphasize oral iindv written comniunicaticn to increase or im¬ prove reading skills. Social Studies will emphasize current events and Ihe duties and pTsponsibilities of U. S. citizens to help develop the slitderl's awareness of his nJ<> in sddet.v.
All Core cla.sses will consist of in¬ dividual as well as grotip work. Mrs. Coker will be available every after¬ noon to provide each student with of^rtunities for individual help cither with Core or other classes.
accordingly. The Board has refused public-spirited offers of mediation - offers wWoh the teachers readily accepted. In short, the Board has refused to negotiate in good faith. I urge that you contaot a Board mem¬ ber and aisk tbat they negotiate a contract agreement with the teach¬ ers' association so that we can get on with the real task erf educating our children.

Mosquito Control In Huntley
August 9,   197.^ Mr. Leor>ard Ackman, Trustee Village of Huntley II3 S  Grove Huntley,  Illinois 60142 Dear Mr. Ackman:
We are aware of the need that the village has to inform its citizens of the type of programs it has institu¬ ted In an effort to better outline what is being done for mosquito con. trol in. Huntley we have had four general information artides written bv Mr. Slarfcy Rachesky, Entomolo- rist for the University of Illinois Coonerative Extension Service. The articles cover; wihiat constitutes a total community program, the need for a oommunity effort, ^jnmidcs in mosquito control, and the new type of adult control.
Enclosed you   will find  the  first article which you may distribute to your local  i^wsjoapcr for  publica¬ tion. We will nmke at least one more -of these news releases available be¬ fore the end of the mosquito season. Please  accept our  apology  for not having them- out eariier. Respectfully, Gary C   Sindelar I ET'S ALL WORK TOGETHER TO CONQUER MOSQUITOES ....
toes. ixKvTi at the old stagnant com¬ munity pond or swamp area, the gentlemen mosquitoes are ofl drink¬ ing as gentlemen siwukl - sipping flower nectar and {Aant juices.
Mrs. Mosquito on the other hand doesn't drink, she a biter. In fact, sometimes you might thing she's a vampire. She enjoys zeicing in on Rover, the family dog, leavii^ him 12% of the time with a disease call¬ ed heaitworm; or she nm^it like ir> get her treats of the trade on a de¬ licious bird, every year spi^eading just a "few'' cases of sleepir^ sick¬ ness . ^. Ixmis Encepihalitis (birds are the reservoir).
Let's be reaEstic, says Stanley Rachesky, Consulting Entomotigst for the Clarice Outdoor Spraying Company. Complete control of the mosquito is impossaUe. The real object of afl inseet contand is to reduce the pest population to the lowest practical level for the long¬ est possible time.
Tlie best way to gain mosquito control is throu^ an organized com¬ munity effort. This is accomplished by apply safe, non-per^st^tt insecti¬ cides such as malathion or abate. These two products are accepted by the U S. Federal Fjivironmental Protection Ager*cy for use in urban areas because of the compatibility witli the environmem and effective¬ ness in killing the mosquito.
P:iihor ot these insecticides may be applied to the worm stage of the mosquito, often called the larvae or wiggler.
This method of mosquito control is known as lawiciding and is very successful. C^ice the mosquito batch¬ es and fUes from its breeding sites, another method of control must be used. ApplicsrtionB of a srfe nai>-per- sistent mist, such as maiathkm, usu¬ ally applied from trucks is effective for a few days. These appiications are tim^ to ooincide-wiith the in¬ flux of large mosquito populations from breeding sites- Ten per cent (10%) of a com- mimity's mosquitoes may oome from backyard breeding areas so the home- ownere must help, too. He must (Contliuied on Page 2) MOSQUOITOES
