State Bank Awarded 4 Stars
Bauer Financial Reports, Inc., a Coral Gables, Florida research firm, is pleased to announce that the State Bank of Huntley has been awarded its four-star rating. This prestigious award identifies this institution as one of the strongest, creditworthy banks in the United States.

A four-star rating indicates that the bank's adjusted tangible capital is between 6% and 9% of tangible assets, that there are no excessive deliquencies or repossessed assets and that the bank is profitable.

Hauptman won the girls' division of UCT's Illinois Junior Golf Tournament Tuesday June 18 in Streator. Her winning score was 101 for 18 holes. The win entitles her to compete in Little Rock against young golfers from across the United States and Canada.
Last year, Hauptman competed in four tournaments, and won three of them, according to her father Paul. The wins included first place in the Patrick Lawlor Foundation Junior Golf Tournament.
Her talents aren't limited to just golf. She also sings, and plays basketball and soccer. This year she won the "Most Outstanding Musician" award for playing trombone in her school's band. She will enter the seventh grade at Riley Grade School in the fall. She lives with parents Paul and Sandra Hauptman in Marengo, Illinois.

"Out of 12,342 banks reporting for the period ended December 31, 1990, 6,538 banks, 53%, received our four-star rating," said Mr. Bauer.
All the banks that quali¬ fied for a four-star rating received a personalized award certificate in recognition of their achievement to display on their premises.
