The roRular monthljWiceting of fhe Huntley Village Board was called to order by Mayor Wilpault Brill a little before 8 p.m. last Thursday evening, March 7. Tru.s- iecR, Fitzi. Wa.sserstrass. Rudy, D. Enstrom, Meyor and Village CHerk R. Enfrom wero all present. Minu¬ tes nnd Treasurer's RejKirt were read and approved and the bills were ordered paid.
The Election Judges were ap- iwinted for the Village Election.
The Board went into a discus¬ sion on placing one of the Huntley police at the entrance to Union Special on Route 47 at 3:55 on weeks when Union Special men has to work overtime. Mr. Bur¬ meister of Union Special was pres¬ ent at the meeting and said he would inform the Union Special Police on duty at that time to con¬ tact Chief Burton on the weeks when he would be working over¬ time.
The Board asked that parents and teacher see to it that the chil¬ dren cross the intersection on Rt. 47 and Main Street before 3:55, a.s the policeman on duty at that in¬ tersection will be moving down to the Union .Special intersection at that time. Mr. Dave Rudy was ap¬ pointed to contact the school au¬ thorities on this matter.
It was brought up by ono of the visitors that perhaps a state traffic signal could be put up at the cor ner of Rt. 47 and Main St. Presi¬ dent Brill stated that there had been traffic checks at this point but there was not enough traffic to warrant a traffic signal. He added that the survey could have been made at times where there was not heavy traffic on route 47.
Another suggestion from one of the visitors at the meeting was that perhaps women could serve. Mayor Brill stated that in the past they had tried to get women to act as crossing guards usuccessfully.
In all at this meeting there were 63 persons not counting the mem¬ bers of the Village Board and the Village Attorney. At this point in
the meeting the crowd had grown to make it necessarj' to move up¬ stairs for the meeting.
Upstairs Mr. Stanley Koch of the American I^egion asked for pel-mission to hold the Legion Car¬ nival on June 6, 7, 8, and 9 of this year. A motion was made by Fitzi, .seconded by Enstrom to per¬ mit this carnival. Aye votes: Fitzi, Meyer, Rudy. Enstrom. Nay vote: Wasserstrass, The motion carried.

An ordinance prepared by Mr. Cowlin. legal counsel for the Vil¬ lage, was presented to the Board. This uniform traffic code is to re¬ place all existing traffic ordinances and condense them into one book wich will be printed shortly.
.Some of the spectators did not approve certain sections of the ordinance, for instance the over¬ night parking. One said that very few places had an ordinance of this type. There was some talk about all night businesses, people who had to work, all night resta¬ urants and business which could exist in Huntley. Mr. Cowlin said this would have to be taken up I with the Board.
Trustee Fitzi moved to approve i
ordinance. The vote was all Ayes, j
Spectators   af   this   point   had \
many comments, especially regard- ¦
ing tho after 2 a.m.  parking por- ;
tion of the ordinance. Some people : felt that after 2 a.m. if a person was   having   a   house   party,   he would have  to ask his guests  to leave.  The Board  informed  them
that   they  should   call   the  police j
department and obtain special per- .
mission for this. '

B.O.A.D. Sect. Not Mailable
This week the Farm and Home . Section is included with the edition of the Huntley Farmside as it has been for several months.
Next week we had scheduled a "Best of All Days" section which is slightly different from the Farm and Home section. It contains features for women, recipes and other interesting items.
Due to postal teolonicalities we are unable to include "Best of All Days" we will place this section of the paper in certain business places in town, such as Collins Pharmacy, Marlowe's Feed and Hatchery, & Heineman Hardward, Joe Rizzo's Ben Franklin Store, the Huntley Laundromat.
As this section will not be a part of the Huntley Farmside, it may be picked up free of charge at any of these places.

Huntley Show Discontinued
No More Himtley Show.
Dave Oldham today announces that he will no longer continue with the Huntley show. Personal as well as other reasons have made this decision definite. The show ran for 5 months a total of 28 shows in 21 weeks. The show was successful enough through the re¬ sponse deemed from the people and in fact grossed nearly $1900. Including the four performances in the manner of Basketbedl games. Mr. Oldham states that it is indeed a rewarding experience and may continue in work of this nature elsewhere. He feels anyone inter¬ ested in a career of this nature should by all means try it at least to find out one's own capabilities. Further details in "Letter to the Editor."
