A spokesman for the group said that Mr. Zenk comes higiily recommended to Huntley. He has a home in Bull 'Valley. Mr. Zenk has had experience operating a beauty parlor in Phoenix, Arizona. Mr. Zenk was born and raised in the Huntley area.
- Tho Medical Center directors camo to the conclusion to rent a portion of 'he Medical Center building to Mr. Zenk due to the fact that it has remained empty without a doctor or the hope of getting a doctor for several years. The directors felt i' best to have income from the building rather than letting it remain empty.
In the event a doctor should be secured for Huntley, a clause in Mr. Zenk's lease states tha* he will have to vacate his portion of the premises. That portion of the Medical Center building that houses Dr. Johnson, a dentist, will continue ^o be used for his pro¬ fessional   services.
The spokesman stated that the Board is still seeking the services of a doctor for Huntley,
