As we look at the April 2nd edi¬ tion of the Huntloy Farmside we see a largo picture of Dick Tracy shaking hand.s with another nr- t*)n labelled "Wooristock. Illi¬ nois". Ye.s. this was the week that Woodstock was named by Look Magazine and the National Muni¬ cipal League as All-American City. The Huntley Farmside congratu¬ lated them. Also in fhat edition was a picture of three Huntley World War I veterans. Mr. Otto. Bahling, Michael Kiley, Sr., and Sophus Michelsen receiving life¬ time memberships in the Ameri¬ can Legion. A new beach Mana¬ ger, Isbert Seavers of Crystal Lake, was appointed to fulfill the vacancy created by Neil Ben¬ nett's resignation as manager af Grafton Beach. The salary of the l)each manager was also raised to $150.00 per week and the salary of the assistant beach manager to SIOO.OO per wepj^ at tho Park Board Meeting. H^ School Board ^^M^unced t^tSlfred Schula, ^^P«e DMX *»^Se l(l»tk>n, had been empTdyed to -fin the Vat-ail-' cy created by Wayne Proffitt's resignation as J^ superintend¬ ent Mr. and IViJB Neil Bennett became the parortt^ bf a son bom at Sherman Hospital on March 27.

On April 6, the Legion Aux¬ iliary held their annual spring dinner. At this dinner the past presidents were honored and sev¬ eral of the senior past presidents were installotl in the offices which they had hold a number of years previously. It seems that when the Auxiliary was new in Huntley occasionallv tho instal¬ lation program was missed, but as of April 6, Ifi^. all past Aux¬ iliary presidents wore fully in¬ stalled  in   that   office.
At Ihis time of tho year two very important elections were held and were reported in tho April 16 i.ssue of the paper. On fhe Huntley school board for the full 3 year term George Adams received 201 votes and Robert Schultz 21.5 votes. Bob Gruner 182 votes, to take tho election. Ernest Stading Jr. received 145 votes to win tho election for the 1-year term. This was also the week of a very large annual town • meeting. More than 120 spectators from all over Graf¬ ton township wero in attendance, most of them from the Huntley area. At the April Tth meeting Howard Ruth was elected as Mod¬ erator by a vote of 74 to 46. The annual township budget was ap¬ proved by the citizens present. However, the road and bri(^cfund was not voted upon as it was the opinion of the township attorney that this iHidget did not have to be voted upon. Later on in tiie year this township budget was chal¬ lenged by a group of citizens.
